Syracuse, NY­ — July 9, 2013:  The INFICON Gemini^TM Inverted Magnetron Vacuum Gauge combines two sensor systems into one small device so it can measure from atmosphere to 1x 10^-9 mbar. The patented ultra-low magnetic stray field design opens up a whole new range of applications. Its unique interchangeable dual chamber sensor unit avoids cleaning cycles and reduces maintenance, making Gemini the most robust and economical vacuum gauge of its kind.

The compact, low maintenance, highly reliable Gemini Vacuum Gauge is well suited for harsh environments. Gemini can be used for base pressure monitoring and control from atmosphere to high vacuum in evaporation and sputter coating applications, as well as general vacuum measurement.

Gemini Cold Cathode comes with fully integrated digital electronics, providing ultimate flexibility for system integration. The optional Gemini cold cathode and Pirani combination provides seamless transition, reliability, practicality and flexibility across wide ranging applications.
