Description
The DigiVac Waterproof StrataVac High Vacuum Gauge is your reliable partner in the field with working outside in adverse conditions. High vacuum gauges are exclusively built for laboratory settings that are clean and dry. This vacuum measurement solution ruggedized this technology so it can be used in industrial and manufacturing facilities and even outdoors. Ideal for the energy field, transformer maintenance, cryogenics, distillation in labs where isolation of the sensor could increase durability and more.

Know what the vacuum level is where it matters
This solution was conceived and built so that a customer could monitor the high vacuum evacuation of their large cryogenic vessel. Many people measure the vacuum level at the inlet of the vacuum pump. While this may be sufficient for some applications, it may be an optimistic view of the true vacuum reading of a system. The best vacuum will be near the inlet of the vacuum pump, and the highest pressure or worst vacuum will be at the point of a chamber furthest away from a vacuum pump. In a well sealed system, this differential is commonly 1 decade of vacuum and often more. Therefore, to insure a specified vacuum level, it is best to measure both at the farthest end of the vessel and also near the vacuum pump. The actual vacuum of the vessel will be somewhere between these 2 numbers. This solution offers an easy way to monitor that important high vacuum level at the other side of the chamber.

WHY STRATAVAC?
The DigiVac StrataVac has many applications from simple passive sensor monitoring to combining multiple sensors in order to create a wide range calibration standard that controls vacuum pump down. It uses a modular building block approach to build the most efficient configuration to achieve a task.
Every StrataVac is calibrated and pretested under actual vacuum against a NIST standard. Need the documentation? Add it to your cart!
VERSATILITY WITHIN YOUR REACH
It can be configured with sensors based on the accuracy and range required to sense vacuum and display the pressure reading in user selectable units of: Torr, mbar, kilopascal or millitorr. The DigiVac StrataVac 2018 can be panel mounted or sit on a bench top. It has an extensive support matrix that includes most capacitance manometers and active and passive gauges available from Lesker, Agilent, Inficon, MKS and Setra.
Its 4 Main Operational Uses Are:
-
Display Controller: for 1-3 active and passive vacuum and pressure gauges
-
Vacuum Controller: capable of maintaining vacuum by either throttling a vacuum pump or bleeding air into a vessel
-
Relay Controller: capable of turning on/off valves and other gauges based on vacuum level
-
Data Graphing and logging: through USB serial using Stratacapture software
3 Simple Steps for Vacuum Process Set-up with STRATAVAC:
-
Plumb the vacuum gauge(s) and valve into your vessel
-
Connect the sensor, power, and I/O cables into STRATAVAC
-
Measure and control vacuum
StrataVac Software: Connect to StrataCapture software by USB port on StrataVac to your laptop.
