CG16K Capsule Dial Gauges

The CG16K Capsule Dial Gauges are designed for precise and reliable pressure measurement, covering a range from 0 to 1040 mbar.

These barometrically compensated gauges ensure accurate readings unaffected by atmospheric pressure changes.

The robust construction, featuring a rugged aluminum casing with a removable bezel for cleaning, makes these gauges suitable for both non-corrosive process plant and laboratory applications.

With full-scale options of 25, 50, 125, and 1040 mbar (20, 40, 100 & 760 Torr), the CG16K gauges cater to a variety of pressure measurement needs.

  • They provide an accuracy of ±2% of full scale, ensuring repeatable performance even at low pressures. Torr options are also available, and the gas-independent design allows for versatile use across different gases.
  • The clear, easy-to-read display eliminates the need for a controller, and calibrated options are available for enhanced precision.
  • Installation is straightforward, with the option for direct or panel mounting using the supplied kit.

These features make the CG16K an excellent choice for tasks such as backfilling, portable equipment, degassing, refrigeration, handling flammable vapors, upgrading from Bourdon gauges, and packaging processes.

With their robust design and reliable performance, the CG16K Capsule Dial Gauges are an invaluable addition to any pressure measurement toolkit, delivering consistent results across diverse environments and applications.

P4 and P5 Compact Vacuum Meters

The P4 and P5 Portable Gauges are complete, all-in-one gauge displays that operate off an integrated battery, making them the perfect solution for service personnel to check vacuum performance at specific points in a system, ensuring operational efficiency. These convenient handheld devices eliminate the need for a gauge/controller setup or an external power supply, allowing for quick and easy spot measurement checks. Their compact, portable design ensures they are always ready for on-site service calls, maintenance checks, and flexible system diagnostics.

The P4 and P5 measuring systems offer independence from mains power, enabling seamless operation in field environments. Both models are equipped with advanced sensors for precise vacuum measurement. The P4 features a piezoresistive sensor with a pressure range of 2000 to 1 mbar, making it ideal for rough and fine vacuum applications. The P5 is equipped with both a piezoresistive and Pirani sensor, providing a broader range between 1200 to 5 x 10⁻⁵ mbar.

Both gauges include onboard memory for data logging, allowing users to store multiple measurement series directly on the device. This supports effective system analysis and performance tracking. Additionally, the P4 and P5 feature USB-C and Bluetooth® LE connectivity, allowing users to export and visualize data for further analysis.

P3 Handheld Pressure Gauge

The Edwards P3 handheld measuring system is the essential device for on-site service calls and on the spot flexible checking. Thanks to the easy use and integrated measurement data memory, pressures can be directly measured at different locations for monitoring the application. Owing to the advanced measuring range of the high-precision Piezo Pirani sensor, pressure measurement in the range of 1200 to 5x10⁻⁴ mbar can be displayed.
