Analog gauges are more accurate in the middle half of scale. Digital gauges are more accurate at the lower and upper end of scale. If burst testing is anticipated, testing is to be performed at the lower and upper ends of scale or if higher accuracies are required, a digital gauge is recommended. If testing is to be performed in the upper two thirds of scale and 1% full scale accuracy is acceptable, then the analog gauge is should suffice. Digital gauges come standard with peak read feature and selectable units of measure (psi, inHg, cmHg, mmHg, kPa, mPa, Bar, kg/cm2, ftH2O).

Testers can be ordered with the high pressure manifold that includes a return loop connection in order to bleed out the system. This configuration is typically used for testing hose assemblies. Where the air bleed is accomplished at the item under test, a non loop manifold is usually desired. This is the most common configuration and is pictured above.

High pressure test fittings are available in a number of sizes and configurations for adapting to various hose or tube ends. Please choose from stocked test adapter fittings or specify alternate requirements. When ordered with test fittings, test chambers include integral stainless shelves with laser cut foam fitting holders.

Test chambers are available to protect personnel during proof or burst testing. Chambers are manufactured in lab quality polished stainless steel with a clear polycarbonate door for visibility during testing. Port(s) are provided inside the enclosure, while all controls remain outside the enclosure for operator safety. Please select from standard units or specify a different size or configuration based on your particular requirements.

We can customize test hoses lengths specific to your application or need. Specify hose lengths and quantities needed.

Specify whether domestic or overseas packaging required. Overseas packaging will comply with IPPC standards and ISPM guidelines for regulating wood packaging material in international trade.

Unless otherwise specified, crack pressure will be factory set at maximum of pressure range selected. Additional springs available to cover complete range of tester. If required, please specify in customization form. Please note, relief valves not available for pressures above 10,000 psi.
