PM-3000 serie

The Gastech PM-3000 Series is a family of handheld digital manometers available in three variants — PM-3001 EX 05, PM-3000 SE, and PM-3000 SE-EX — all sharing a common slim-profile body with a 2.5-inch color display, IP64 ingress protection rating, and a rechargeable 3,000 mAh LiPo alkaline battery. The PM-3001 EX 05 is an ATEX-certified intrinsically safe unit with a fixed measurement range of 0–500 mbar, maximum overpressure of 1,000 mbar, accuracy of ±0.2% full scale at +23°C, and repeatability of ±0.1% full scale at +23°C — certified to EEx ia IIC T classification. The PM-3000 SE is a standard digital manometer with an external sensor connector, accepting optional 25 bar and 60 bar external sensors. The PM-3000 SE-EX is the ATEX-certified version of the SE, carrying the same external sensor capability with the addition of hazardous area certification, also accepting 25 bar and 60 bar external sensors.

All three variants share the same physical form factor — a slim, upright handheld body with two top-mounted pressure ports, a 2.5-inch color screen, and a five-button navigation panel. The color display gives clear pressure readings and measurement status in outdoor and indoor field conditions. IP64 protection covers the unit against dust ingress and water splashing from any direction — consistent with the requirements of gas network maintenance operations in variable outdoor environments. The 3,000 mAh LiPo battery provides extended field autonomy across full working days without recharging. The external sensor connector on the SE and SE-EX variants allows a single instrument body to cover multiple pressure ranges by swapping the connected sensor.

The Gastech PM-3000 Series is deployed by gas network operators, utility maintenance technicians, and pipeline testing contractors for on-site pressure measurement during gas installation verification, network commissioning, pipeline pressure monitoring, and routine maintenance checks. The ATEX variants — PM-3001 EX 05 and PM-3000 SE-EX — are used in classified hazardous gas zones where non-ATEX instruments are not permitted, including gas reduction stations, valve pits, and live network intervention points.

Leader Infra supplies the full PM-3000 series for gas network operators and utility contractors — covering standard field pressure measurement, hazardous zone ATEX-rated deployment, and extended-range external sensor configurations within a single consistent instrument family.

FAQ — When is the ATEX-certified PM-3000 SE-EX required instead of the standard PM-3000 SE? The ATEX PM-3000 SE-EX is mandatory whenever pressure measurement is performed in a classified explosive atmosphere zone — including live gas valve pits, gas pressure reduction stations, metering cabinets, and any work area where gas concentration could reach the lower explosive limit. The standard PM-3000 SE is only approved for use in non-hazardous areas where no explosive atmosphere classification applies.
