  • Scientific Research: From university labs in Sydney to cutting-edge research facilities in Melbourne, Pirani gauges are used in experiments requiring precise vacuum control, such as particle accelerators and materials science studies.
  • Food Packaging: In Australia’s vast food industry, these gauges ensure proper vacuum sealing, extending shelf life and maintaining product quality.
  • Pharmaceutical Production: For the production of medicines and vaccines, Pirani vacuum gauges help maintain the sterile conditions necessary for manufacturing.
  • Automotive Industry: In processes like vacuum-assisted brake systems testing, these gauges play a vital role in ensuring vehicle safety.
  • Aerospace: Australia’s growing aerospace sector relies on Pirani gauges for testing and maintaining vacuum systems in aircraft and spacecraft.
  • Environmental Monitoring: These gauges are used in specialised equipment for atmospheric studies and climate research across Australia’s diverse ecosystems.
  • Metallurgy: In vacuum furnaces used for heat-treating metals, Pirani vacuum gauges ensure optimal conditions for material processing.

Choosing the Right Pirani Vacuum Gauge

Selecting the appropriate Pirani gauge for your application requires careful consideration of several factors:

  • Measurement Range: Pirani gauges typically operate in the range of 10^-4 to 1000 mbar. Consider your specific vacuum requirements when choosing a gauge.
  • Accuracy and Resolution: For critical applications, opt for gauges with higher accuracy and better resolution.
  • Response Time: In dynamic vacuum systems, a faster response time can be crucial for real-time monitoring and control.
  • Material Compatibility: Ensure the gauge’s materials are compatible with your process environment, especially if exposed to corrosive gases.
  • Output Signal: Choose between analogue or digital outputs based on your data acquisition and control system requirements.
  • Calibration and Maintenance: Consider gauges that offer easy calibration and minimal maintenance to reduce downtime.
  • Environmental Conditions: Factor in the operating temperature range and any potential electromagnetic interference in your facility.
  • Integration Capabilities: For modern labs and industrial settings, gauges with options for network integration and remote monitoring can be advantageous.

At Eden Lab, our team of experts can guide you through these considerations, ensuring you select the Pirani vacuum gauge that best suits your specific needs and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

A Pirani gauge operates on the principle of thermal conductivity. It measures the heat loss from a heated wire, which varies with the pressure of the surrounding gas.

While Pirani vacuum gauges work with many gases, their readings can be affected by gas composition. They are typically calibrated for air or nitrogen, and corrections may be needed for other gases. 

We recommend annual calibration for most applications, but this can vary based on usage and environmental factors. Eden Lab offers calibration services to ensure your gauge remains accurate. 

Pirani gauges are most effective in the rough to medium vacuum range. For ultra-high vacuum measurements, other gauge types like ion gauges are more suitable.

Yes, we offer a range of Pirani vacuum gauges with various fittings and outputs to ensure compatibility with most existing systems. Our team can advise on the best options for your setup.
