INTRODUCTION
This manual is a step-by-step approach to the use, operation, maintenance, and
troubleshooting of PPS31surface pressure logger.
Pioneer Petrotech Services Inc. offers a wide range of oilfield related instruments.
These include memory and surface readout electronic pressure recorders, surface
pressure loggers, permanent installation systems, and DPT (downhole pressure
tools), all of which have been developed and manufactured to obtain the highest
accuracy and resolution in the industry.
Pioneer Petrotech Services Inc. offers products that are durable and reliable with
simple operational procedures. The lightweight design makes transportation to and
from test sites effortless. PPS has taken the data quality obtained from quartz and
sapphire transducers to new frontiers. In addition to the transducers, the state of the
art electronics and surface mount technology have enabled PPS to provide our
customers with top of the line quality pressure gauges.

The PPS31 logger has several switches controlling different functions. The switch
button on the right side of the logger turns on/off the LCD where you read the
current pressure and temperature from. (See the picture below)

The switches under the cover lens are used to turn the logger on/off and to convert
the pressure and temperature units correspondingly. (See the picture below)

Operating Modes
The surface pressure logger can operate in three different modes: Sampling Mode,
Stand-by Mode, and Communication Mode.
Sampling Mode: The tool is in Sampling Mode when a battery is
connected to the surface pressure logger without the interface box and cable
attached to it. Under normal operating conditions the logger is programmed
and then transported to the surface.
The logger carries out the program in accordance with the instructions prestored in the memory.
Stand-by Mode: The logger is in Stand-by Mode when it is not sampling
(i.e. in between the samples). PPS loggers are designed to switch to Stand-by
Mode automatically between samples.
Communication Mode: The surface logger is in Communication Mode
when the interface box and cable are connected to both the logger and the
computer. This Mode is used to program the logger, download data from the
logger, and perform other related operations through the software.
Connect the logger to the computer using the interface box through the USB port.
Program the logger using the SmartView software.
Disconnect the interface box after programming
Install logger on to the wellhead and let it start working.
Logger is uninstalled from wellhead and moved to a safe place.
6. Connect the logger to the computer again to download and process the data
recorded.
Warning: Do not use the Interface Box with your computer at places where
explosive or flammable gases are present, due to a safety concern
(spark). Please program the gauge at a safe location before installing it
on-site or putting it into well.
Maintenance
Display check:
Turn on the power to check the display. If the display works regularly, it will
sleep when the black button is pushed.
Push again the black button to restart the display.
The Crossover and the gauge housing should be tied up.
