Chart Recorder

9.5 Inch Circular Chart Recorder

Model RPO / RTO

9.5 inch circular chart recorder for pressure (RPO series) and temperature (RTO series), with one to three pens, ±1% FSD accuracy, a 240 mm disc chart and electric, battery or spring-wound chart drives for wall, panel, pipe or portable use.

Overview

About the 9.5 Inch Circular Chart Recorder RPO / RTO.

The 9.5 inch circular chart recorder draws a continuous pressure or temperature trace on a 240 mm disc chart. The RPO series records pressure through a measuring element connected to the process, while the RTO series records temperature through a bulb and capillary. Up to three pens record on the same chart, and the chart turns once every 24 hours or 7 days. With a clockwork or battery chart drive the recorder needs no mains supply, which suits pressure tests, furnaces, sterilisers and pasteurisers where a paper record of each cycle is kept.
