Pressure Chart Recorder

Features

These reliable and accurte instruments are suitable for most applications where there is a requirement for low cost pressure recording.

Up to three pens can be fited with three pressure systems or combinations of pressure, temperature or flow sensing systems.

The case is suitable for surface or panel mounting or may be specified as portable or pipe mounting.

Pens

Fitted to the pen arms are disposable fibre tipped pens which are readily replaced without mess. Single pen recorders and the first pen of two and three pen recorders trace in red ink, the second pen in blue, the third in green.

Chart and chart drive

Charts are supplied normally with the minimum value of pressure at the centre, although other styles are available. Standard charts durations are one revolution every 24 hours or 7 days with special durations available on request. Chart drive may be electric, spring would or battery operated. A pen lift is fitted to ease chart changing.

Intrinsically safe applications

An all mechanical version is available for applications where no electrical supply is available or where an intinsically safe instrument is required. Chart drive for this version uses a mechanical sprint wound motor.
