Product Overview: Vaetrix Digital Chart Recorder
The Vaetrix Digital Chart Recorder is specifically designed for Hydrostatic and Pneumatic pressure testing. The menu interface and easy setup for datalogging makes it ideal for most users. Choose the RTD length(s) required for the application and you are set to go. Everything else is included at no charge (batteries, software, USB cable, carrying case, NIST Cert and Data). Of course, we are backing it with our 4 Year Warranty as well. Proudly developed and built in the USA based on customer feedback. You talk, we listen!
Choose your options and build the gauge for your application. Add (1) RTD and ambient temperature or (2) RTD’s to meet your testing requirements. Select Bluetooth for monitoring pressure using the free Vaetrix apps on Google Play or the Apple Store. The Hydro Management Software is included with every gauge. This lets you create full blown professional reports from the gauge and other equipment with the ability to add .pdf files.

HYDRO DATA MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE – $300 MSRP
Works with all ETG pressure products for graphing pressure & temperature. Digital pressure chart recorder. See our software quick start guide.
Do you need an easy and cost effective way to monitor temperature and pressure for testing pipe or pressure vessels? Add ambient temperature monitoring to any ETG gauge and produce professional reports with the Hydro Data Management software. Ideal for most ASME B31.3 Process Pipe Testing that is typically done with analog gauges and hand written reports. Meet the testing and record requirements of CFR 49 Subpart J under 192.513 and 192.517 for Transportation of Natural and Other Gas By Pipeline. Replace several analog gauges and chart recorders with one ETG to save on maintenance and calibration costs. Monitor Min, Max, and Live pressure on your phone with the Remote Gauge app while recording data. Even perform a leak test while recording data to troubleshoot or soap the connections and welds.
Create secure files with date and time stamp directly into an Adobe .pdf file. Upload the results from the gauge with a standard USB cable. Save time, money, and create professional reports by eliminating the need to work in Word, Excel, or other programs to piece things together. This includes the ability to add files from other sources to create one report. Pick and choose the order in which the pages appear. Print the file and have the test witness sign off on the hard the copy record for paperwork compliance.

WHY DID WE CREATE TIMED TEST MODE?
Historically, in residential gas service testing, technicians were required to perform pressure integrity tests at the main distribution line as well as at the residential service line itself. While the main line tests could last 4-8 hours, the service tests at the residence may only last 10 minutes and typically do not require temperature records. Technicians were manually recording the start pressure, waiting 10 minutes, then manually recording the end pressure to document their test for inspectors. How did they accomplish documenting this test in a quantifiable way with a time stamp? CELL PHONE PICTURES! They took a picture of the gauge pressure at the start with a time stamp, and then a picture after 10 minutes with the end pressure and a time stamp. They then uploaded the pictures in their final report for visual proof.
THE PROBLEMS: (1) Remembering to check the gauge at exactly 10 minutes from the start time in order for the test to be valid; (2) No record or proof of any leakage between the 10-minute time period unless watching the gauge the entire test. (3) No physical document for proof of the test being properly performed, heavy reliance on cell phone pictures, times and word of technician – no data points. Read more about Timed Test Mode here.
