Vacuum Gauge Protector for Deposition Systems

A vacuum gauge protector for deposition systems includes a body comprising an input port that is configured to couple to a vacuum chamber, and an output port configured to couple to a vacuum gauge. A deposition material filter is positioned in the body to present a tortuous path to gases comprising deposition materials entering the body where the surface area of the deposition material filter is greater than 2000 mm.sup.2. In addition, the deposition material filter restricts deposition material from passing through the body to the output port so as to reduce vacuum gauge contamination while maintaining enough gas flow through the body to the output port so that the vacuum gauge response time can be less than 10 seconds.
