New from Aerovac Systems is a highly accurate analogue vacuum gauge. Designed to monitor vacuum integrity throughout the vacuum bagging process, the high precision, Swiss-engineered gauge features an 80mm diameter face, 30-zero in.Hg. (1000-zero mbar) calibration, safety valve and 1/4in BSP male-threaded connector. The gauge not only measures absolute pressure, but also doubles as a leak detector: any reading other than zero after the vacuum has been pulled indicates the presence of a leak in the system.
Aerovac Systems sees many and varied applications for the new gauge, but believes in particular its many customers in the marine, automotive (including Formula 1), aerospace and wind energy industries will appreciate the clarity and performance of the vacuum gauge.
