CPS VG200 User Manual

VG200
The VG200 is the state of the art digital electronic vacuum
gauge designed to accurately monitor the entire evacuation
process from start to finish. The VG200 has been designed to
be rugged and reliable. The VG200 incorporates 2 keys and
an LCD display. One key simply turns the unit ON and OFF.
The other key allows the user to change between MICRONS,
MILLIBAR, TORR and INCHES HG VAC any time during the
operation of the unit. An advanced ambient compensating
design automatically compensates for varying temperature
conditions with no manual adjustments needed.
INCLUDED: gauge hook, adapter “T-fitting” and a padded
vinyl case.
