Description
Product Overview
The CAMTOP TYPE F Насос Pressure Gauge is a high-performance, oilfield-grade pressure gauge designed for measuring pulsating pressures in mud pumps and standpipes. It is also suitable for measuring steady pressures in other industrial applications. The internal dampening mechanism works across the entire pressure range without requiring adjustment, providing accurate readings even under high-vibration conditions.
Built with a tuning fork, fluid cell system — the most reliable technology for harsh oilfield operating conditions — the TYPE F gauge is fully waterproof and built to withstand the most demanding environments. Its robust design ensures that the pumped medium is always isolated from the gauge internals, preventing damage and ensuring long service life.

Main Components & Operating Principle
The CAMTOP TYPE F gauge uses a tuning fork, fluid cell system as its primary internal mechanism. This time-proven design has demonstrated the highest reliability for oilfield operating conditions:
- Стальной Gauge Корпус: Heavy-duty steel casing with red powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance and high visibility on the rig floor.
- Tuning Fork Mechanism: Converts pressure pulses into stable mechanical oscillations, eliminating needle flutter under pulsating flow.
- Fluid Cell Chamber: Contains proprietary dampening fluid that absorbs vibration energy and stabilizes the pressure reading.
- Pressure Element (Bourdon Tube): High-strength pressure sensing element calibrated for 10K / 15K / 20K psi ranges.
- Precision Dial & Pointer: Large-diameter dial with clear white face and black markings for easy reading at distance.
- Relief Screw (Top): Factory-set pressure relief vent — must remain loosened 1 full turn during operation to prevent over-pressure damage.
- Threaded Connection Base: 1-1/8″-12UN male thread for direct installation on mud pump discharge ports or standpipe outlets.
Dimensions & Product Variants
| Variant | Pressure Range | Max Safe Operating Pressure | Typical Application |
