Intro: Pressure sensing technology that we use in the lab mostly revolves around ionic and thermal applications of gas properties. Ion and thermal couple gauges respectively.

Ion Gauge:


Thermocouple Gauge (TCG): A heated filament is placed into the low pressure system. The rate of heat transfer is directly related to gas density and subsequently, pressure.
