Abstract

See full text

A grid protects a manometer diaphragm from plasma. A plasma chamber is used to generate a plasma. A manometer is used to measure the pressure in the plasma chamber. A grounded electrically conductive grid is used to screen out ions in the plasma before they reach a diaphragm in the manometer. The grid may be formed in a centering ring. A pipe may be used to connect the manometer to the plasma chamber. The centering ring may be placed in the joint in the pipe, with the centering ring and grid being grounded to the pipe.
