Data Acquisition and Computer Control System
Network & web based DAQ system to monitor
- Pump Performance
- Constant evaluation of pump valve dynamics
Pressures
- Pressure transducers located in pump chambers used to determine valve sealing delays, fluid compression delays, chamber overshoot pressure, crosshead loading shock forces and chamber volumetric efficiency
- Pressure transducers in discharge piping instantly detect kicks and pressure spikes that can be observed in real time and displayed at two different locations on monitors on the pump and in the drilling booth. The constant pressure measuring system on our pump is a safety warning system for when things go wrong, and coupled with our X 15,000 pressure modulating valve, the operator will have instant knowledge and automatic response.
Temperature
- Fluid temperature for mud properties
- Power end lubrication
Power Evaluation
- Power input data to calculate pump system mechanical efficiency
Control Mechanism
- Prevents pump start up without oil pumps, water pumps and blowers running.
- System comes complete with alarms and alerts.
Vibration Sensors
- Vibration monitoring bearing and gear vibrations as well as knocking and reciprocating action
- Maintenance schedule and brochure
Preventive Maintenance
- Programmed with “life hours” consumed and “life hours” remaining
- Each and every piece of equipment has a help menu delineating the page in the manual for complete instructions for maintenance or repair.
