  • Simple design means trouble-free years of productive use in the most difficult applications
  • Bakeable to 200 °C (sensor only)
  • Four-digit LED
  • Selectable emission current
  • Time-selectable degas
  • Dual TTL set points for process control
  • RS-232/485 digital communication
  • 11.5 V to 30 V DC control interface power switch

The Televac® MP3DR is a miniature Bayard-Alpert high-vacuum sensor and integral control electronics in a compact envelope. It is designed to be closely coupled to the user’s vacuum system and to provide a local pressure indication and/or digital interface to a computer control system. The MP3DR derives its performance strength from Televac®’s cutting-edge miniature Bayard-Alpert ionization sensor and user-friendly operation from its intuitive control and display interface.
