Zusammenfassung:A process gas source (16) is connected to the vacuum chamber (5), and a metering valve (12) actuated by an automatic controller is installed between the vacuum chamber (5) and the process gas source (16). A potentiometric measurement electrode compares the amount of a gas in the vacuum chamber (5) with a reference gas by way of a reference electrode or with a solid body substituting for the reference electrode and sends a signal to automatic control unit (14), which contains a signal amplifier. The control unit then drives the generator of the power supply or the metering valve for the process gas.
