Intrusive Pig Signalers
PetroSan oilfield Engineering Co., With a global industrial presence, Petrosan is a major fabricator and manufacturer of intrusive pig signalers.
In order to give real-time information regarding the location, speed, and direction of the pig, intrusive pig signalers are placed into the pipeline with it. Usually mounted on the pig, these signalers send signals to sensors or receivers outside the pipeline via a variety of methods, we manufacturer of Intrusive Type Pig Signaler, Magnetic Signaler, Acoustic Signaler, Pressure Pulse Signaler, Temperature Signaler.
Intrusive Pig Signalers :
Intrusive Pig Signalers are devices that are inserted into the pipeline along with the pig to provide real-time information about the pig’s location, speed, and direction. These signalers are typically attached to the pig and use various technologies to transmit signals to sensors or receivers outside the pipeline.
Types of Intrusive Pig Signalers:
1. Magnetic Signaler: Generates a magnetic field that is detected by sensors outside the pipeline.
2. Radio Frequency (RF) Signaler: Transmits RF signals that are received by antennas or receivers outside the pipeline.
3. Acoustic Signaler: Generates acoustic waves that are detected by sensors or hydrophones outside the pipeline.
4. Pressure Pulse Signaler: Generates pressure pulses that are detected by pressure sensors outside the pipeline.
5. Temperature Signaler: Measures temperature changes inside the pipeline and transmits signals to sensors outside.
Intrusive Pig Signalers provide benefits such as:
– Real-time pig location tracking
– Pig speed and direction monitoring
– Improved pig control and navigation
– Enhanced pipeline safety and efficiency
– Reduced risk of pig loss or stuck pigs
In the context of pipeline pigs, “pig signals” refer to the methods used to detect and track the movement of pigs through the pipeline. Here are some common types of pig signals:
1. Magnetic Pig Signal: A magnetic field is generated when a pig passes through a pipeline, triggering a sensor to indicate the pig’s presence.
2. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Pig Signal: RFID tags are attached to the pig, which communicate with sensors or readers installed along the pipeline to track the pig’s location.
3. Acoustic Pig Signal: The pig creates a unique acoustic signature as it moves through the pipeline, detected by sensors or hydrophones.
4. Pressure Pig Signal: Changes in pressure are detected as the pig moves through the pipeline, indicating its location.
5. Flow Meter Pig Signal: Flow meters measure changes in fluid flow rates as the pig passes through, signaling its presence.
6. Temperature Pig Signal: Temperature sensors detect changes in temperature as the pig moves through the pipeline, indicating its location.
7. Conductivity Pig Signal: Changes in conductivity are detected as the pig moves through the pipeline, signaling its presence.
8. Pig Tracking Systems: Advanced systems using multiple sensors and algorithms to track the pig’s location, speed, and direction.
These pig signals are essential for:
– Tracking pig movement and location
– Monitoring pig performance
– Detecting potential issues or blockages
– Optimizing pigging operations
– Ensuring pipeline safety and efficiency
Intrusive Pig Signalers Material Specification :
Intrusive Pig Signalers are typically made from materials that can withstand the harsh conditions inside pipelines, such as:
1. Stainless Steel (e.g., 316L or 304L): Resistant to corrosion, high temperatures, and pressures.
2. Titanium: Strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant, ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
3. Inconel: A nickel-chromium alloy that resists corrosion and high temperatures.
4. Monel: A nickel-copper alloy that resists corrosion and is suitable for high-temperature applications.
5. Hastelloy: A nickel-chromium alloy that resists corrosion and high temperatures.
6. Ceramics: Used in some signalers for their high hardness, corrosion resistance, and ability to withstand high temperatures.
7. Polymers (e.g., PEEK or PVDF): Used in some signalers for their high resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and abrasion.
8. Carbon Steel : A105, A106, A333, A335, A516 gr. 70 etc.
When selecting materials for Intrusive Pig Signalers, consider factors such as:
1. Corrosion resistance
2. High-temperature resistance
3. Pressure resistance
4. Abrasion resistance
5. Chemical resistance
6. Biocompatibility (if used in pipelines carrying food or pharmaceuticals)
7. Magnetic properties (if using magnetic signaling)
8. Electrical conductivity (if using RF or electrical signaling)
Additionally, consider the specific pipeline conditions, such as:
1. Fluid type (e.g., oil, gas, water, chemicals)
2. Fluid temperature
3. Fluid pressure
4. Flow rate
5. Pipeline material (e.g., steel, concrete, plastic)
