The robust bayonet-type case construction allows easy maintenance and calibration while ensuring long service life and dependable operation even under challenging industrial conditions.
Designed for Accurate Low Vacuum Measurement
Many industrial applications require the measurement of very low pressures or vacuum levels that are beyond the sensitivity range of standard bourdon tube gauges. In such applications, a capsule vacuum gauge provides significantly higher sensitivity and accuracy.
The “Ji” Japsin Instrumentation Capsule Vacuum Gauge utilizes a specially designed capsule sensing element that expands and contracts in response to small pressure changes. This movement is transferred through a precision linkage mechanism to the pointer, providing highly accurate indication of vacuum levels.
This design makes the instrument particularly suitable for low-pressure and vacuum applications where precise monitoring is essential for maintaining process efficiency and equipment performance.
Vacuum Range -1000 mmWC to 0
The gauge is calibrated to measure vacuum from -1000 mmWC to 0 mmWC, allowing accurate monitoring of low-pressure vacuum systems.
Vacuum Scale
- Primary Scale: -1000 mmWC to 0
- Secondary Scale: -100 mBar to 0
This range is commonly used in applications involving air, gas, ventilation systems, dust extraction systems, filtration monitoring, and environmental control processes.
The wide vacuum range provides operators with a clear indication of system performance and allows rapid identification of blockages, leaks, or abnormal operating conditions.
Dual Scale Display for Operational Convenience
The gauge features a dual-scale dial calibrated in both:
- Millimeters Water Column (mmWC)
- Millibar (mBar)
This dual-unit display eliminates the need for manual conversion and allows operators to work with whichever unit is most suitable for their application.
Benefits of Dual Scale Display
- Improved readability
- Easy interpretation of measurements
- Reduced calculation errors
- Suitable for international applications
- Enhanced operational efficiency
The clearly marked dial ensures quick and accurate pressure monitoring in both process and maintenance environments.
Sensitive Capsule Element Technology
The core sensing component of this gauge is the precision-engineered capsule element.
Unlike bourdon tube gauges that are generally used for medium and high pressures, capsule gauges are specifically designed for low-pressure and vacuum applications.
