Abstract

See full text

Aspects of the invention relate to an improved acoustic termination for a pressure monitoring system. The termination can include an inner tube having a passage extending therethrough. One end of the inner tube can extend into an open end of an outer tube, which is closed at its opposite end. The portion of the inner tube that extends into the outer tube can include a plurality of apertures. Sound absorption material can fill the space between the outer tube and the portion of the inner tube extending therein. A pressure signal entering the acoustic termination can be substantially dissipated and can minimize signal reflection from the termination. As a result a more accurate pressure measurement can be obtained by a pressure measurement device that operatively connects to the passage upstream of the termination.
