Active Digital Controller

The Edwards Active Digital Controller (ADC) is a compact single gauge controller and display. It features a bright LED display and simple push-button controls.

The ADC automatically recognises compatible Edwards gauges, loads the appropriate look-up table and displays the pressure in commonly used vacuum units.

Two versions are available; the standard ADC simply displays the pressure in choice of units, and the enhanced ADC includes a second gauge connection, two set-point relays, two analogue outputs and an RS232 interface. The ADC mk2 enhanced controller can now support 2 different gauges, e.g. APG100 and AIM.

Plug and measure operation

means you simply plug in the mains supply, connect the gauge and ADC displays the measured pressure

The ADC supports Edwards gauges

with a total measuring range of 2000 to 1 x 10-9 mbar (1500 to 7.5 x 10-10 Torr)

Bright LED display

gives clear, long distance readability, displays units in mbar, Torr, Pascal or Volts

Small 1/8 DIN enclosure

may be panel or bench mounted

Simple push-button control

makes operation highly intuitive
