The Barton Model 242E is a field recorder designed for continuous pressure and temperature recording on a 12-inch (300 mm) circular chart. This configuration measures 0–6,000 psi and records pressure and temperature on the same chart. The red pen traces pressure while the blue pen traces temperature, providing a clear timeline for comparing both variables during pressure tests or production runs.

The mechanical 2 HR / 8 HR chart drive provides fast chart rotation for short tests, allowing pressure holds, drops and step changes to be clearly recorded across the chart without batteries or external power. Inside the die-cast aluminium case, stainless steel linkage and construction techniques provide good linearity, low hysteresis and a long service life. Disposable felt-tip pens simplify chart changes, while the 2-inch pipe mount allows installation at the measurement point.

Key Benefits

  • Provides documented pressure and temperature records for test certificates, audits and client sign-off

  • 0–6,000 psi range with a 316 stainless steel pressure element for corrosion resistance in oil, gas and water service

  • Two pens on one chart — red for pressure and blue for 0–100 °C temperature

  • 2 HR / 8 HR mechanical chart drive for detailed recording during short tests

  • Die-cast aluminium case with stainless steel linkage for long field service

  • Standard 12-inch (300 mm) circular charts and disposable felt-tip pens

  • Standard 2-inch pipe mount for installation at the wellhead, skid or test point

Who This Product Is Best For

  • Operators and contractors working on wellhead and choke-manifold monitoring

  • Engineers responsible for high-pressure hydrostatic tests on pipe spools and vessels

  • Maintenance and testing teams handling hydraulic power units and test benches

  • Plants and sites running valve and manifold pressure testing or water and gas injection lines

  • QA/QC and HSE teams who need a signed, physical record for compliance files

How to Specify & Commission It

  1. Mount the recorder on a 2-inch pipe at the test or measurement point and connect the pressure line to the 316 stainless steel pressure element and the temperature connection.

  2. Load a 12-inch (300 mm) circular chart rated for 0–6,000 psi and 0–100 °C, then fit the disposable felt-tip pens.

  3. Wind the mechanical clock, choose the 2-hour or 8-hour rotation, and align the pens with the correct start time line.

  4. Pressurise the system, allow the recorder to trace the test, then remove, sign and file the chart as the permanent record.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Barton 242E 0–6,000 psi recorder measure?
It records pressure from 0 to 6,000 psi on the red pen and temperature from 0 to 100 °C on the blue pen, both on one 12-inch circular chart.

Does this recorder need batteries or external power?
No. It uses a mechanical 2 HR / 8 HR chart drive, so short tests can be recorded without batteries or mains power.

What applications is a 0–6,000 psi chart recorder used for?
Typical uses include wellhead and choke-manifold monitoring, high-pressure hydrostatic tests on pipe spools and vessels, hydraulic power units and test benches. It is suitable for applications requiring a continuous, paper-based pressure and temperature record.

What is the pressure element made of?
The pressure element is 316 stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance for water, hydrocarbons and many process fluids.

Which Barton 242E 0–6,000 psi version should I choose?
Choose the 2 HR / 8 HR version for short hydrostatic holds and applications requiring detailed recording over shorter test periods. The 24 HR / 7 day version is designed for longer monitoring periods.
