PressureMAT®

The PressureMAT Sensor Transmitter is a comprehensive unit designed to monitor the pressure of PendoTECH’s Single-Use Pressure Sensors. It combines the functions of a monitor, alarm, and transmitter, making it a versatile tool for your biopharmaceutical processes.

The PressureMAT features an easy-to-read LCD screen that displays pressure readings, making it ideal for monitoring pressures in filtration, bioreactor, and chromatography applications. Its data output capability allows for easy routing of readings to a PC or control system for efficient data collection.

For low-pressure applications, PendoTECH offers a high-resolution (HR) model that delivers ten times the precision of the standard PressureMAT unit. The PressureMAT also allows users to set pressure limits, with alarm settings to help maintain the integrity of your specialized process.

Additional offerings include the PressureMAT Sensor Transmitter, the handheld PressureMAT DPG sensor reader, and the PressureMAT PC Data Acquisition Software. Experience the convenience and reliability of the PressureMAT Sensor Monitor in your biopharmaceutical processes.


The PressureMAT and PressureMAT PLUS are comprehensive units designed to monitor the pressure of PendoTECH’s Single-Use Pressure Sensors. They combine monitor, alarm, and transmitter functions, making them versatile tools for your biopharmaceutical processes. These lightweight, portable units can be easily moved around a lab or pilot plant to the location where pressure measurement is required. They use state-of-the-art, solid-state electronics that require no calibration or maintenance. Their output options allow for easy integration with PCs or higher-level control systems, and a relay switch enables interfacing with pumps and valves. Models are available with up to four pressure sensor inputs. The PMAT3 and PMAT4 models can optionally display Delta-Pressure or trans-membrane pressure (TMP) for filtration processes. These calculated values can also have alarm set points and can be transmitted. The PressureMAT PLUS system comprises the monitor with a user interface and connectors on the back panel where input and output components can be interfaced. It can measure total flow volume in addition to flow rate. Both systems have an alarm function where minimum and maximum values are entered on the keypad. If the process value goes below the minimum setting or above the maximum setting, the system will go into an alarm state. The alarm state may be tied to the relay output to help safeguard the integrity of a process. The transmitter function delivers a 4-20 milliamp output signal corresponding to the process values on the display. The RS-232 data output to a PC is available for data collection to the PendoTECH PMAT Data Acquisition Software. Experience the convenience and reliability of the PressureMAT Sensor Monitor in your biopharmaceutical processes.

PressureMAT

Single Channel Unit

Monitor – the process pressure is displayed on the LCD display with a range of -7 to 75 psi. Pressure can also be displayed in bars. The PMAT3 and PMAT4 models can optionally display Delta-pressure of P1-P2 or the trans-membrane pressure (TMP). These calculated values can also have alarm set points and can be transmitted. The PMAT-S Single Channel Unit is available as a High Resolution (HR) model for low pressure applications that achieve 10x the accuracy of the standard unit.

Alarm – minimum and maximum pressures are entered on the key pad and if the process pressure goes below the minimum setting or above the maximum setting, the system will go into alarm state. The alarm state that may be tied to the relay output help safeguard the integrity of a process.

Transmitter – the transmitter function delivers a 4–20 milliamp output signal corresponding to the pressure reading on the display. This system is useful for input to a process control system. Also available is a RS232 data output to a PC and there is Customized Data Acquisition Software that can collect all of the data from the unit, as well as data from one scale – see software demo.There is optional internal data logging.

There are numerous applications in biopharmaceutical production processes where the system can be used to monitor pressure such as filtration, chromatography, and bioreactor pressure monitoring and control.
