Low-pressure work varies from a quick leak check to a week of line monitoring. A 0-50 psi recorder with 11 selectable chart speeds covers both without a second instrument. The Barton 242E 0-50 psi recorder is built for exactly that kind of job.

The Model 242E is a two-pen recorder. One pen traces pressure and the other traces temperature on the same rotating chart, so you can see at a glance whether a pressure change followed a temperature change or happened on its own. That matters during pressure tests, where a temperature swing can explain a small pressure drop that would otherwise look like a leak.

This version uses a battery-driven chart drive with 11 selectable speeds. Faster speeds spread a short test across the chart for fine detail, while slower speeds fit a long monitoring period onto a single chart. There is no clock to wind, and the speed can be changed to suit each job.

Choose the pressure range so that your normal working or test pressure sits well inside the scale, ideally around the middle, and never above 0-50 psi. The temperature range is not stated in the listing, so confirm it with our team before ordering.

Need a different range or chart drive? Compare the Barton 242E 0-25 psi, battery chart drive with 11 speeds, the Barton 242E 0-75 psi, battery chart drive with 11 speeds, or the Barton 242E 0-50 psi, 24 hr/7 day mechanical drive.

Who This Product Is Best For

  • Field teams using one recorder across short and long jobs.

  • Service companies that need flexible chart speeds on site.

  • Pressure testing and commissioning teams documenting test periods.

  • Users who want to avoid winding a mechanical chart drive.

  • Applications involving low-pressure gas, water and utility lines within the 0-50 psi range.

How to Specify & Install It

  1. Confirm 0-50 psi covers your working or test pressure with suitable margin, and check the temperature range for your process.

  2. Mount the recorder securely and connect the pressure connection and temperature element as the Barton manual specifies.

  3. Fit batteries, select the chart speed for the job and install a fresh chart.

  4. Ink the pens and check they rest on zero.

  5. Start the recording, then record and sign the chart when the test or monitoring period ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does a two-pen pressure and temperature recorder do?
    It records pressure and temperature continuously on one circular chart, giving a time-based record of both.

  • How do I choose between 0-50 psi and other ranges?
    Pick a range where your normal or test pressure sits well inside the scale. For lower pressures, see the Barton 242E 0-25 psi, battery chart drive with 11 speeds. For higher pressures, see the Barton 242E 0-75 psi, battery chart drive with 11 speeds. Our team can confirm the best fit.

  • What are the 11 selectable speeds for?
    They let you match chart rotation to the job, from short tests needing fine detail to longer monitoring on one chart.

  • Is 0-50 psi also available with a different chart drive?
    Yes. See the Barton 242E 0-50 psi, 24 hr/7 day mechanical drive.

  • Do I need a different recorder for short and long jobs?
    No. Changing the chart speed lets the same recorder cover both short tests and longer monitoring periods.

  • What is the temperature range?
    It is not stated in the listing. Contact our team to confirm the temperature range before ordering.

  • Is genuine Barton stock available with UAE shipping?
    Yes. Genuine Barton stock ships free across the UAE. Call +971 6 5436933 for current pricing and lead time.
