The Meriam PIT5000 is the premier instrument for conducting and documenting pipeline hydrostatic pressure tests. This device replaces your bulky and fragile dead weight pressure testers, pressure chart recorders, and temperature chart recorders with a rugged all-in-one solution.

The PIT5000 incorporates our proven, NIST-traceable pressure and temperature measurement technology with our patented* system to provide reliable, automated data collection and storage of pipe pressure, pipe and ambient temperatures, as well as total pump stroke count and volume calculation.  Additionally, during the test, the PIT5000 provides you with visual assistance such as plotting and alarm indicators.  Test reports are automatically generated in two convenient formats, PDF and XLSX.

The PIT5000 will pay for itself many times over by reducing time for set-up, tear-down and eliminating tedious, error prone manual data collection. In addition the real-time graphs allow you to see exactly what is happening, and focus on what is important, during the entire test process.

The PIT5000 pipeline integrity tester gear bag includes the following:
• One (1) pressure 150 ft hose assembly
• Two (2) 150 ft cables with mating M12 connectors
• One (1) stroke counter 150 ft cable assembly
• One (1) 12 V locking cable 25 ft with ring terminals
• One (1) battery charger assembly
• Two (2) RTD probes
• One (1) quick-test 1/4 in male NPT fitting
