The Inficon/Leybold ITR 100 is a dual-sensor ionization vacuum gauge engineered for precision pressure measurement across ultra-high and atmospheric ranges. It combines a hot cathode ionization sensor using the Bayard-Alpert method with a Pirani sensor, delivering continuous readings from 5 × 10⁻¹⁰ mbar to atmospheric pressure. The sensor is bakeable to 150 °C for UHV applications and outputs a 0–10 VDC analog signal proportional to the logarithm of pressure. Designed for integration with the Center One controller series, the ITR 100 provides reliable vacuum monitoring in industrial and research environments where accuracy and wide dynamic range are critical.
