Granville-Phillips 275817 Mini-Convectron Replacement Gauge with Welded Flange
About this part
Granville-Phillips catalog number 275817 is a field-replaceable Convectron gauge for documented Series 275 Mini-Convectron modules. It combines a gold-plated tungsten sensor with a welded NW25KF vacuum flange. Convectron technology measures pressure through conductive and convective heat loss from the sensor wire. In a supported Series 275 module, the documented air and nitrogen measurement range is 1 × 10^-4 to 1000 Torr. NW25KF identifies the vacuum connection; 275817 is the exact manufacturer catalog number
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.
Key Facts
Specifications
| Manufacturer catalog number | 275817 |
| Product series | Series 275 Mini-Convectron |
| Product role | Field-replaceable Convectron gauge for compatible Series 275 Mini-Convectron modules |
| Measurement technology | Convectron convection-enhanced Pirani thermal-conductivity gauge |
| Sensor material | Gold-plated tungsten |
| Flange | NW25KF, welded |
| Measurement range in a supported Series 275 module | 1 × 10^-4 to 1000 Torr; 1 × 10^-4 to 1300 mbar; 1 × 10^-2 Pa to 130 kPa, for air or nitrogen |
| Preferred mounting orientation | Horizontal |

What Does NW25KF Mean?
NW25KF is the vacuum-connection designation, not the unique catalog number of the gauge.
| Segment | Field | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| NW25KF | Vacuum connection | NW25 ISO-KF flange; manufacturer documentation specifies a welded flange on catalog number 275817. |
| 275817 | Exact catalog identifier | Gold-plated-tungsten replacement Convectron gauge equipped with the welded NW25KF flange. |
Documented Module Compatibility
Compatibility is limited here to module generations that explicitly list 275817 as their replacement gauge. Other Series 275 configurations require confirmation from their applicable manual or full model code.
| Module catalogs | Configuration | Documented relationship |
|---|---|---|
| 275420-2 and 275620-2 | DeviceNet; without and with display | Manual 275565 lists 275817 as the gold-plated-tungsten replacement gauge with welded NW25KF flange. |
| 275538 and 275553 | Earlier DeviceNet generation; with and without display | Manual 275563 lists the same 275817 replacement-gauge configuration. |
Gas-Dependent Response and Safety
Convectron readings depend on gas composition. Series 275 modules are normally calibrated for nitrogen, with air providing approximately the same response. Manufacturer correction curves are required for other gases; an uncorrected reading can substantially understate actual pressure, particularly above approximately 1 Torr. Convectron gauges are not intended for flammable or explosive gases.
Sensor-Wire Test Precaution
The sensor wire can be damaged by ordinary continuity testers. The manufacturer limits test voltage to 0.1 V while the gauge is under vacuum and 2 V at atmospheric pressure; atmospheric resistance testing must also remain below 10 mA.
