MKS PDR2000 Controller

 
The MKS Instruments Model PDR 2000 Dual Capacitance Diaphragm Gauge (CDG) Controller displays vacuum pressure as measured from capacitance diaphragm gauges.  The PDR 2000 supplies +\-15 volts at up to 0.75 amp; this is sufficient to operate most heated capacitance diaphragm gauges.  The PDR 2000 measures the 0 to 10 volt signal from the CDG to determine pressure.  The Model PDR 2000 controller covers full scale ranges from 20 mTorr to 10,000 Torr.
