XGS-600 Controller

The XGS-600 Gauge Controller accepts any of three different kinds of gauge cards which, between them, operate all Agilent vacuum gauges. Choose from

• Convection gauges such as thermocouple or ConvecTorr
• Hot filament ion gauges
• Inverted magnetron (cold cathode or Penning) gauges

Up to six cards can be installed in the XGS-600 Controller, in practically any combination to suit your particular application. Everything else is standard equipment. This yields maximum flexibility for matching the system to your vacuum measurement requirements. The XGS-600 Gauge Controller allows for simultaneous operation of up to 12 gauges and can display readings for up to 8 gauges at any one time. All settings are stored in flash memory, so no worry about reprogramming after a power outage.

Ordering Information Description Part Number XGS-600 Vacuum Controller, without cards XGS600H0M0C0 Configure your XGS-600 Controller with cards – constructing your part number: XGS600HXMXCX 1 Refer to the Gauge Selection Chart to help determine the gauge you need 2 Choose the number of HFIG** cards you want; place after the ”H”; will be 0 to 4 3 Choose the number of IMG* (cold cathode) cards you want; place after the “M”; will be 0 to 5 4 Choose the number of Dual Convection Gauge Cards; place after the “C”; each card runs two convection type gauges, will be 0 to 6 5. If ordering Active Gauge (Analog Input) Cards, add “Ax” to the end of the part number, XGS600HXMXCXAX with the number of cards desired (1 to 6). Each card operates two Active Gauges. NOTE: • The XGS-600 has 6 gauge card slots permitting a total of 6 cards. • Up to four slots can be used for HFIG** cards. If four of these are chosen, one IMG* card or up to two Dual Convection Gauge Cards may be selected also. • Up to five slots can be used for IMG* cards. If five of these are chosen, no additional gauge cards may be selected. • All six slots may be used for Dual Convection Gauge Cards or Analog Input Cards. • HFIG, IMG, and Dual Convection Cards can be used with Dual Analog Input Cards.
