New Digital Pressure Gauge with Cloud Data Logging Software and Mobile Application

SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA – AMETEK STC and Crystal Engineering are proud to announce the release of the groundbreaking XP3i digital pressure gauge, an evolution of the renowned XP2i, designed to empower users with enhanced precision and unmatched connectivity.  The XP3i Intrinsically Safe pressure gauge contains the features and functions that have made the XP2i an industry standard but now offers them with twice the accuracy and a Bluetooth connection. At 0.05% of reading, the accuracy of the XP3i opens it up to new applications previously unavailable to its predecessor. In addition, the XP3i is also fully temperature compensated from -20°C to +50°C. This is not just a general specification but individually documented on each XP3i gauge in the supplied ISO 17025 accredited calibration certificate – performed across the complete temperature range.

For customers seeking to create and maintain a comprehensive digital record of their pressure test, the XP3i introduces the upgraded DataLoggerXP mode. With internal storage capable of collecting over 200 million data points, professionals can effortlessly download the stored data using Crystal’s new cloud-based software or mobile application. In addition to the new gauge, Crystal Engineering introduces the CrystalConnect mobile application, a powerful tool that utilizes Bluetooth technology to communicate with the XP3i seamlessly. This eliminates the need for cumbersome cable connections, offering technicians the flexibility to connect to an XP3i in potentially hazardous environments, hard-to-reach locations, or from the comfort of a control room or vehicle, even in inclement weather conditions.

For users requiring the XP3i’s intrinsic safety, a Bluetooth connection allows the gauge to remain installed in the process, avoiding removing it from the hazardous location before connecting. 

Crystal Engineering presents the CrystalControlWeb cloud-based software, the final piece of the XP3i data logging program. This software allows users to effortlessly upload their stored data from the XP3i. If a wireless connection is desired, CrystalControlWeb allows users to manually upload files wirelessly downloaded to the CrystalConnect mobile application.

Once information is uploaded, the user can access a full suite of features and functionality to analyze, share, and store log files. CrystalControlWeb is accessible from any web browser worldwide, and users can connect via computers or mobile devices. Additionally, the ability to share data within organizations streamlines collaboration, making it easy to access data across the globe. Some CrystalControlWeb features include: 

  • Export data as .csv or .pdf
