How to test vacuum pressure

I’m ordering a 2L Chinese cow spd and was wondering if I could test vacuum pressure off what I’m pulling off my roto. Would it achieve the same result on the spd?

You can use an analog gauge on your rotovap. inches of mercury is accurate enough. (I run around 25-27” with current setup)

You need to measure in microns for SPD. For which you will need a digital gauge.

My SPD is limping along at 40um blanked-off right now. EM30 tested at 3um in the wings awaiting a mist eliminator.
