The CANNON DVR 1000 Series Digital Vacuum Regulators are designed for precise measurement and control of vacuum at 300 mm Hg below atmospheric pressure. Unlike other vacuum regulators, the solid-state DVR-1000 and DVR-1500 models use no mercury.
The DVR meter displays the amount of vacuum in mm/Hg or one of nine other units of measurement selected using a keypad on the meter.
In asphalt laboratories the Digital Vacuum Regulator (DVR) may be used in conjunction with Cannon-Manning, Asphalt Institute, and Modified Koppers vacuum viscometers for measurement of highly viscous materials such as asphalt cement at 60°C (140°F) according to ASTM D 2171. The DVR is also useful in other laboratory systems where accurate measurement and control of vacuum is required.
Two basic versions of the DVR are available. The DVR-1500 is equipped with an internal vacuum pump and does not require an external vacuum source. The DVR-1000 uses the customer’s in-house vacuum system.
The internal set points for the instrument gauge are preset at CANNON to regulate vacuum at 300 ± 0.5 mm Hg below atmospheric pressure (the vacuum required by ASTM D 2171). These set points may be altered to fit the user’s specific needs within the DVR’s operating range of 28 to 410 mm Hg below atmospheric pressure.
Both the DVR-1000 and DVR-1500 are available in either horizontal or vertical configurations (the horizontal version will support the weight of a constant temperature bath like the CANNON CT-1000 or CT-2000).
The instrument housing is made of durable enameled steel and is supported on non-slip rubber feet.
