MX200
The MX200 Vacuum Controller (also known as Vacuum Control Unit or Vacuum Pressure Regulator) can be connected to up to 10 Televac passive vacuum gauges, including cold cathode gauges, convection gauges, piezo and capacitance diaphragm gauges, and thermocouple vacuum gauges. This allows for a maximum pressure measurement range of 1*10-11 to 10,000 Torr.

Description
The MX200 has analog outputs from 0 to 10 V DC for each vacuum gauge connected to the vacuum controller, RS-232/RS-485/USB digital communication for easy integration with a PC or PLC, and up to 8 optional setpoint relays for process control in your vacuum system.
The MX200 vacuum controller’s user interface includes six touch controls and a high-contrast OLED display with a 180° viewing angle, which displays readings from up to eight connected vacuum gauges simultaneously, along with the selected units of measurement and setpoint relay status. It also automatically scales the text size based on the number of measurements displayed.
This vacuum controller supports multiple gas types, including nitrogen/air, argon, hydrogen, helium, neon, krypton, and carbon dioxide. The MX200 vacuum controller is a configurable and modular unit that allows you to choose a vacuum sensing solution tailored to your needs.
