AIR SAMPLING

Canister Valves & Gauges

Ashcroft® Test Gauges

• Accurate measurement of vacuum to –30

"

Hg and pressure to 60 psi.

• Available in both analog and digital formats.

• Accuracy to +/– 0.25%.

• Gauge connector to canister valve available.

High-accuracy test gauges are recommended for verifying the vacuum/pressure in

canisters before and after sampling. The 6-inch face on the analog gauge allows for easy

reading. The digital gauge operates on two AAA batteries and offers an unambiguous

readout. Both gauges have an accuracy of +/– 0.25% and all-metal wetted parts.
