Programmable Pressure & Fatigue Test Rig Cost Effective

Micropac PTR programmable pressure test rig, a versatile and cost-effective fatigue test unit running on multiple fluids and working between 1 bar and 700 bar.

An off the shelf catalogue programmable pressure test rig running from 1 bar to 700 bar on multiple fluids. Provides a high degree of user control of testing cycles in this standard unit without the high cost of bespoke programable hydrostatic pressure test rigs. Very cost effective. Intuitive and easy to use screen driven software. Buy a catalogue product, use it out of the box once you have set your test cycle. The unit offers testing cycles with timings, maximum pressure, dwell and number of cycles up to 10,000.

This rig will operate up to 700 bar and down to 1 bar. Pressure is measured using a pressure transducer and the system pressure indicated on the control unit. The unit is programmed using clear and intuitive scrolling screens. There are options for data logging via a digital pressure gauge – please contact the factory.

Our PTR-A is designed for multiple fluids including water and oil. A 10 litre 316 stainless reservoir is standard and can be increased to a 20 litre capacity. The wetted parts are stainless steel for very low corrosion. An optional certified relief valve can be fitted to limit the maximum system pressure if increased security is required on a system.

• Dependable, controllable and safe operation. Optional certified pressure relief valve.
• Forms a cost effective catalogue test rig as an alternative to bespoke pressure test rigs.
• Mounted on a sturdy stainless steel skid frame.
• Just connect mains 230V/110V and shop air.
• Intuitive screen driven software allows easy programming of your test cycle up to 10,000 repeats.

Description

The Micropac PTR unit offers a catalogue programmable pressure and fatigue test unit for basic pressure testing up to 10,000 cycles over the range 1 bar to 700 bar. The unit is highly cost effective compared with a bespoke pressure test rig.

This unit is computer controlled using an integral PLC and programming is by means of screens, so setting your test cycle is simple and intuitive. If you want a version without the computer control, see our PTR-M range for a shortened skid without the PLC control.

Pressure is generated using an air driven pump operated by the PLC and venting of pressure back to tank also uses a rugged air operated valve. Our basic catalogue unit will not ramp up and drop down the system pressure at programmed rates as it does not feature modulating valves.

An integral pressure transducer provides system pressure input to the PLC and is displayed on the screen.
