Vacuum Leakage Sensor provides audio-visual low vacuum alarm.

Press Release Summary:




Featuring micro-controller chip, VLS-8 self-calibrates to vacuum system's peak vacuum level, displays it on LCD, and then activates audio-visual alarm if loss or leakage of 10% occurs. It compensates for altitude and atmospheric pressure and is powered independent from host vacuum system by 9 V lithium battery. Standard features include low battery chirp indicator, ¼ in. push-connect vacuum fittings, and open collector output which can be connected to I/O device.



Original Press Release:



Vacuum Leakage Sensor Compensates for Altitude & Atmospheric Pressure



A brand new vacuum leakage sensor that calibrates itself to maximum vacuum rather than a preset level and provides an audio-visual alarm if a loss of vacuum occurs is being introduced by Anver Corp. of Hudson, Massachusetts.

The Anver VLS-8 Vacuum Leakage Sensor features a micro-controller chip that sets itself to a vacuum system's peak vacuum level, displays it on an LCD, and then activates if a loss or leakage of 10% occurs; sounding a loud horn while flashing a bright red LED warning light. Compensating for altitude and atmospheric pressure, this solid-state vacuum leakage sensor is powered independent from the host vacuum system by a 9V lithium battery.

If there is a vacuum loss, the Anver VLS-8 Vacuum Leakage Sensor's alarms will continue until sufficient increase in vacuum is achieved. Standard features include a low battery "chirp" indicator, ¼" push-connect vacuum fittings, and an open collector output which can be connected to an I/O device, such as an emergency stop function on a CNC control. Applications include any process involving a vacuum pump requiring consistent vacuum.

The Anver VLS-8 Vacuum Leakage Sensor sells for $295.00 (battery included) and is made in the U.S.A. Literature is available upon request.
