Typical SQM-160 System Configuration
A complete system consists of a monitor, feedthrough, sensor, and sensor kit. A sensor kit contains a standard oscillator, a 10-pack of crystals, and the cables required to connect everything together. An example of a basic typical system might include the following:
1. Two-Channel Monitor, with standard resolution and RS-232 interface
SQM-160-S-2-R
2. Feedthrough, 1 inch bolt, one electrical and two cooling lines 3/16"
930-000
3. Single standard sensor, with 1/8" cooling lines
932-000
4. Sensor kit, includes one 900-010 oscillator, one 934-000 10-pack of gold crystals, one 902-011 6inch ( 150mm) BNC cable, one 902-012 10ft (3m) BNC cable, and one 902-014 30" (0.7m) vacuum cable.
