Modular Ion Pump Systems

Description

This small, lightweight, portable ion pump/gauge unit represents another approach to the familiar appendage pump. Its compact design allows the high voltage modular power supply, ion pump, and the display module to be assembled into a single inter-connected unit with a mass as low as 318gm and size as small as less than 5 inches in overall length. A four decade, easy to read bar graph meter display and a 0-5VDC analog signal during normal operations, and continuously monitors the level of vacuum within the pump.

The MODION® Pump/Gauge may be operated from several power sources for fixed or
portable operation:

  • The standard Model 110/220VAC switchable wall adapter.
  • Operation from batteries (12VDC) to provide backup or portable operation. This mode can permit complete portability during processing, storage and shipping of a user’s vacuum device.
  • The pump portion of MODION® may be operated remotely via HV cable from J.B.A’s HVPS (high voltage power supply). note: using the MODION® with a non-J.B.A. power supply voids the 1 year limited warranty)

Modular Power Supply

Specifications
