✦ Synopsis
A friction vacuum gauge with vibrating metal ribbon was suggested and designed by Becker in the 1960s (Vacuum, II, 7961, p. 7951. Using suitable materials and considering the influences limiting the parameters of the gauge, an apparatus suitable for pressure measurement in the range Id to IO-' Pa can be designed, The principles for the design are discussed, and a possible experimental arrangement based on them is described.

The Becker friction vacuum gauge is based on the measurement of the damping of mechanical vibrations of a metal ribbon caused by the surrounding gas. The lower limit of the pressure measurement range depends mainly on the internal damping in the material of the vibrating element. This damping is inf
