Each Eclipse probe can be used for vacuum service (negative pressure) but only the Borosilicate
Eclipse is ideally suited to be used on foaming applications but in specific conditions where dense
GWR probes (7xD/7xL) are suited for full vacuum conditions (Helium leak < 10
-8
cc/s @ 1 bar abs.)
foam can enter in the stilling well, coaxial GWR probes are not recommended.
-40° to +600° F max 3002 psig
(-40° to +315° C)

Depends on the spacer material. See model selection 7xD/7xL GWR probe.
For media with
ε
r 1.9 to 10, GWR probe must be mounted between 3" and 6" (75 and 150 mm)
away from the metal tank wall or in a metal cage/stillwell.
