Ionization Gauge Type 8138/29D20

The 8138/29D20 is a directly heated triode ionization gauge intended for the continuous measurement of vacuum in the range of 10-1 to 10-7 Torr. Short-term readings of up to 1 Torr can be monitored. Accidental exposure to Atmosphere at normal operating temperature will not damage the gauge. The use of a thoria-coated iridium filament makes this possible. In coating these filaments, great care must be exercised in controlling the cataphoritic process for the application of the thoria.
