Pressure recorders

Pressure recorders – Reliable recording of pressure measurements

A pressure recorder is a device used for the continuous monitoring and recording of pressure in a system. They can provide accurate and continuous pressure data, making them essential for ensuring safety, efficiency, and quality in numerous applications. Whether in industry, environmental monitoring, or research, pressure recorders are indispensable instruments for precise pressure monitoring.

Features of a pressure recorder

• Sensor: A pressure recorder contains a sensor that measures the pressure of the medium (a gas or liquid). The sensor can be based on various technologies, such as Bourdon tubes, diaphragms, or piezoelectric elements. The pressure recorders in our range operate with a Bourdon tube.
• Recording System: The measured pressure data is continuously recorded. This is done on chart paper that moves under a pen, graphically representing the pressure changes.
• Casing: Our pressure recorders are housed in robust enclosures that protect them from environmental influences such as dust, moisture, and mechanical damage. For example, consider our pressure recorders in Pelicase housing, which is shock and water-resistant.
• Clockwork: In our mechanical pressure recorders, a mechanical clockwork drives the chart paper, moving it at a constant speed. This allows for continuous recording over set periods, for example 24 hours or 7 days.

Benefits of an EMVO Techniek pressure recorder

• Continuous Monitoring: A pressure recorder provides uninterrupted recording of pressure trends, which is useful for diagnosing problems and ensuring system safety.
• Reliability: Mechanical pressure recorders are robust and can operate reliably under extreme conditions.
• Analysis: The collected data allows for detailed analysis and helps identify trends and deviations in pressure.

In short, a pressure recorder is an indispensable instrument for the accurate and continuous monitoring of pressure changes in various applications, excelling in robustness and reliability.

Application versatility of a pressure recorder

Pressure recorders are used in a wide range of industries and scientific fields where precise pressure monitoring and recording are crucial:

• Petrochemical industry: They are used to monitor pipeline pressure, wellheads, and storage tanks to ensure safety and efficiency.
• In Biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry: Pressure recorders help control pressure in reactors, distillation columns, and other process installations, which is vital for product quality and operational safety.
• In Meteorology, pressure recorders play a key role in recording atmospheric pressure changes, essential for meteorological studies and weather forecasting.
• Water Management: The recorders are used to monitor pressure in water pipes and pump stations to ensure smooth operation and prevent leaks.
• Furthermore, in research and development laboratories, pressure recorders are used to collect precise pressure data during experiments and tests.
• Aerospace: They are indispensable for monitoring cabin pressure and other critical systems during flights. The robustness and reliability of pressure recorders also make them ideal for use in extreme environments.
• Mining and offshore installations: Specially designed housings, such as Pelicase housings, protect the devices from harsh conditions like moisture, dust, and mechanical impacts.
