Trigon™ BCG552
ATM to Ultra High Vacuum TripleGauge®
Revolutionize your vacuum gauge experience with us!
Product configurator
Gemini™ MxG5xx
The TripleGauge® BCG552 combines 3 vacuum sensing elements in one sensor flange. This flagship of the new TrigonTM family offers a extremely wide measurement range from UHV (5 x10-10) up to ATM (1500 mbar). With its added ATM sensor, BCG552 is well-suited for differential pressure measurement and for use as vacuum switch in several applications.
The supported Bayard-Alpert dual filament offers superior accuracy, repeatability and longevity in the UHV and HV range, while the miniaturized capacitance diaphragm gauge has superior accuracy in the ATM range and is gas type independent.
VacXplor™ Software
VacXplor, our modular user software is designed to enhance your experience with INFICON Trigon Gauges. VacXplor offers a unified interface, dynamic data visualization, and advanced customization options, all without the need for administrator rights for installation.
Advantages
- 3 + 1 sensing elements for extremely wide measurement range, cost reduction & space savings
- 2 filaments for Bayard-Alpert system
- Gas type independent pressure measurement above 10 Torr provides more reliable load lock control for any gas mixtures
- Differential pressure measurement eliminates uncertainty related to atmospheric pressure changes
- Automatic high vacuum Pirani adjustment reduces operator interventions
- Galvanic isolated electronics to avoid electric stray current
- Sliding emission mode to avoid pressure jumps and freeze when switching the emission stream
- Set point relays
- Bright & big OLED display (90° rotatable) with user interface
- Analog output, RS232C serial interface, EtherCAT®
- Usable in conjunction with VGC50x Controller series
- Backwards compatible to TripleGauge® BCG450
- RoHS compliance
Typical applications
- Pressure measurement in Semiconductor processes, transfer and loadlock chambers
- Industrial coating
- General vacuum measurement and control on systems in the low to ultra high vacuum range
