Vacuum Pressure Measurement
T198X31
Granville-Phillips 275 Mini-Convectron Module (Observed 275803-EU)
About this part
T198X31 is an archive identifier associated with a Granville-Phillips Series 275 Mini-Convectron vacuum gauge module. The retained unit is observed as catalog configuration 275803-EU: a no-display, nonlinear-analog module with one process-control relay and a 1.33-inch (NW16CF) ConFlat flange. MKS ordering documentation does not define T198X31, so it is not presented as a manufacturer catalog number or as an exact alias for 275803-EU
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

| 2 | Relay normally closed |
| 3 | 11.5–26.5 VDC power input |
| 4 | Power ground |
| 5 | Analog output |
| 6 | Relay common |
| 7 | Relay disable |
| 8 | Signal common |
| 9 | Setpoint output |
Measurement and Safety Notes
- Pressure indication depends on gas species, gas density, and module orientation.
- For gases other than nitrogen or air, apply appropriate conversion data and adjust relay setpoints for the process gas.
- For an unlisted gas or gas mixture, establish a calibration curve using a gas-independent transfer standard such as a capacitance manometer.
- Do not use the module to measure flammable or explosive gases.
- Do not connect or disconnect electrical connectors while power is applied.
