Automated Pressure Holding System Vs. Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System


An automated pressure holding system (APHS) is usually used for sustaining a constant static pressure in heating and cooling systems to guarantee uninterrupted operation. However, constant static pressure can be achieved with an open expansion vessel in smaller boiler-supplied heating systems. This regulator is explicitly designed for pilot plants, process control applications, and laboratories.

Advanced Pressure Products (APP) manufactures and designs automated pressure control systems with a modular approach. Simply put, these systems are configurable to provide various functionality dependent on the users’ requirements, budget, and preferences; each offers opposing levels of automation & control.

Let’s discuss the difference between automated pressure systems in detail. Shall we begin?

What Does Automated Pressure Holding System Do?

The APP Automated Pressure Holding Tester (APHT) holds and produces a target pressure from atmospheric pressure to 5000 PSI (pneumatic system) and 60,000 PSI (hydraulic system). The system is fully automated and wholly microprocessor-controlled, letting the user regulate the target pressure, pressurization rate, and holding time.

What Does Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System Do?

The APP Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System (APGCS) examines the linearity of equivalent pressure gauges from atmospheric pressure to 60,000 PSI. Highly accurate master measures and ensures precise calibration of up to nine slave gauges per iteration. The APGCS also offers fatigue testing of the gauges. The system results in less downtime and fewer overall expenditures.

Additionally, pressure gauges are generally used in different industries and quite common to be calibrated. As with any other process measurement device, it should be calibrated at consistent intervals to guarantee that the system is measuring appropriately.

This portable gauge and transmitter calibration system is 7 to 10 times quicker than a deadweight tester. Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System allows you to make a 10 point up and down calibration in less than 3 minutes, including printing out a calibration certificate.

Salient Features of Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System

·        Multiple Pressure Systems

Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System has up to three highly precise pressure transducers and monitors system pressure that provides feedback and accurate results. Its multiple pressure generator systems provide continuous and multi-axis pressurization effectively.

·        Cyclic Pressures

Cyclic pressure allows fatigue testing of gauges. The system is equipped with user-defined pressure steps, pressurization rates, holding times, and multiple target pressures.

·        Accurate Test Performance

Tests can be conducted under elevated temperature through a pressure gauge calibration system to simulate actual operating conditions.

·        Over-pressurization Protection

The system has a multi-level, fail-safe system that provides over-pressurization protection efficiently.

·        Windows-Based Program

Its computer-controlled and windows-based software access all measurement, control, report generation, and data collection. Complete manual control is also possible. Moreover, it is easy to use and install, and wizards monitor you throughout the setup.

·        Graphical Test Displays

Real-time graphical test demonstration depicts testing status and results throughout the operation, which reduces transcription or calculation errors. The Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration system provides a 0.1% accuracy of reading accuracy up to 15 000 psi (1000 bar).

·         Easy Maintenance

Automated pressure gauge calibration has easily configurable designs that are suitable for most applications, making it easy to maintain and lessen the hassle of regular services.

To Sum Up,

Individuals commonly use automated pressure control systems, which have more composite pressure testing applications where advanced control and monitoring of the hyperbaric or hydrostatic pressure is obligatory.

People who conduct Sour Gas Testing (H2S) of high-pressure materials, high temperature (HPHT) applications also tend to use automated pressure control systems. The real-time result display, remote control, and monitoring of the system guarantee operator safety during extensive test periods.

We have discussed salient features and specifications of each automated pressure system quite elaborately in this blog. It is clear that these two systems are not that different and have almost the same qualities.
