INTERFACE PT-3070 Hydraulic Pressure Tester
INTERFACE Medical Technologies' Hydraulic Pressure Tester, Model PT-3070 is a compact bench top system designed to test catheter tubing, fittings and elastomer balloons in a wide range of sizes.
A variety of high-pressure tests can be performed requiring pressure cycles with a specific sequence, magnitude and number of repetitions. Test profiles are user programmable with several generic templates stored in the memory of the unit. The system is designed Operation: The PT-3070 is ideally suited for testing small plastic pressure retaining components such as welded or bonded plastic components and tubing assemblies that are typically encountered in many disposable medical devices, i.e. balloon catheters. Tubing, small valves, fittings, balloons, etc. can be tested for burst, leak, fatigue, pressure or volume compliance and flow resistance. The unit can measure and plot pressure and volume compliance of elastomeric balloons, measure inflation and deflation times of to allow for easy modifications to existing templates oering ultimate flexibility in designing your own test protocols. The functions such as program recall and storage, parameter selection and parameter numeric value input are accomplished through menu driven soft keys on the touchscreen. The system records measurements of pressure, volume, flow rate, time and balloon diameter. balloon catheters, such as PTCA and PTA, and determine stent deployment characteristic, etc
