However, the downhole environment is complex and harsh, with problems such as narrow space, high temperature, and humidity. The traditional pressure gauge often faces problems such as high power consumption, insufficient endurance, and inconvenient data storage when used in the well. In downhole operations, accurate measurement of pressure is crucial to ensure production safety and optimize the operation process. However, the existing pressure gauge often has problems such as high power consumption, insufficient endurance, inconvenient data storage, and high failure rate in high temperature environment when used in the well, which makes it difficult to meet the needs of long-term downhole monitoring.

[0003] The pressure gauge suitable for high-temperature and high-pressure natural gas wells (Chinese patent No. 201820825963.9) discloses a pressure gauge using a high-temperature and high-pressure resistant sealing assembly. To test the high-temperature and high-pressure environment of natural gas wells, a combination of end face metal end face sealing ring sealing and two fluorine rubber radial elastic sealing is used. The combination sealing form can seal and isolate the electrical chamber of the pressure gauge from the external environment, ensuring the normal use of the pressure gauge in high temperature environment. However, in a high temperature environment, if the pressure gauge fails, it is difficult to distinguish whether the failure is caused by the sealing assembly or the electrical components without expensive and time-consuming laboratory failure analysis.

In addition, the terms "first", "second" are only used to distinguish in the description, and have no special meaning.

[0023] The utility model embodiment provides a kind of low-power storage pressure gauge of high temperature resistance, as shown in it, Figure 1 Temperature pressure data in memory 4 is read by serial port module 5 by host computer 7 and is displayed, analyzed and processed.

[0024] Further, acquisition board 1, control processing unit 2, temperature pressure sensor 3, memory 4, serial port module 5 are all high-temperature-resistant elements with power supply 6, and the high-temperature-resistant function of the pressure gauge is realized by using high-temperature-resistant elements, which can work stably in the environment of -20℃ to 175℃ underground.

[0025] Optionally, the first single-chip microcomputer is a single-chip microcomputer of model PIC18F26K80, and the second single-chip microcomputer is a single-chip microcomputer of model PIC12F508. Both of the two types of single-chip microcomputers are low-power single-chip microcomputers resistant to high temperature.

[0026] Alternatively, memory 4 is a FLASH memory, which is used to store temperature pressure data and will not lose data in the case of power failure. The FLASH memory can be selected from a variety of capacities such as 4MByte, 8MByte and 16Mbyte according to actual needs to meet the requirement of long-time data storage.

[0027] In practical application, the control processing unit 2 and the power supply 6 form a low-power power management module, which controls the power-on and power-off of the temperature and pressure sensor 3 and the memory 4. The control processing unit 2 has a timing wake-up function, which can wake up the temperature and pressure sensor 3 at a preset time interval for collection, and store the collected data into the memory 4. After the collection is completed, the first single-chip microcomputer 21 controls the power supply 6 to perform the power-off operation on the temperature and pressure sensor 3 and the memory 4, and controls the first single-chip microcomputer 21 to enter a sleep state. The second single-chip microcomputer 22 outputs a fixed clock source for timing and waits for the next collection period to wake up the first single-chip microcomputer 21. The first single-chip microcomputer 21 controls the power supply 6 to perform the power-on operation on the pressure sensor 3 and the memory 4, and the above-mentioned temperature and pressure data collection process is repeated. In the sleep working state, the overall working current of the pressure gauge is 70uA, and in the normal working state, the overall working current of the pressure gauge is 1mA, so that the low-power design of the pressure gauge is realized, and the endurance time of the pressure gauge is 6 months.

[0028] Further, because the pressure gauge in the embodiment adopts a low-power design, the power supply 6 can adopt a small-size high-temperature-resistant battery and be integrated on the collection board 1, so that the miniaturization design of the pressure gauge is realized, the volume of the pressure gauge is reduced, and the transportation, carrying and installation of the pressure gauge are facilitated.

[0029] The specific working process is as follows:

[0030] Step 1: The second single-chip microcomputer 22 sets a data collection interval time and outputs a fixed clock source to provide a timing function for the first single-chip microcomputer 21.

[0031] Step 2: When the preset data collection interval time meets the preset value, the second single-chip microcomputer 22 wakes up the first single-chip microcomputer 21.

[0032] Step 3: The first single-chip microcomputer 21 sends an instruction to control the power supply 6 to perform the power-on operation on the temperature and pressure sensor 3 and the memory 4.

[0033] Step 4: The temperature and pressure sensor 3 starts to collect external temperature and pressure signals.

[0034] Step 5: The temperature and pressure sensor 3 converts the collected temperature and pressure signals into electric signals and outputs them to the first single-chip microcomputer 21. The first single-chip microcomputer 21 processes the electric signals and stores the processed data into the memory 3.

[0035] Step 6: When the preset data collection time is completed, the first single-chip microcomputer 21 sends an instruction to control the power supply 6 to perform the power-off operation on the temperature and pressure sensor 3 and the memory 4.

[0036] Step 7: The first single-chip microcomputer 21 enters a sleep state, and the second single-chip microcomputer 22 continues to output a fixed clock source for timing and waits for the next data collection period to wake up the first single-chip microcomputer 21.

[0037] Other embodiments of the disclosure will be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the specification and practice of the features disclosed herein. It is intended that the specification and examples be considered as exemplary only, with the true scope and spirit of the disclosure being indicated by the following claims.

[0038] It is to be understood that the disclosure is not limited to the precise construction hereinafter described and as shown in the attached drawings, and that various changes in form and detail can be made therein without departing from the scope thereof. The scope of the disclosure should only be limited by the appended claims.
