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.
