Batching Pigs Datasheet

The basic 2 cup and 3 cup UC pigs are generally used for batching of dissimilar fluids. The 4 cup version UC pigs provide positive seal between dissimilar fluids and are typically used for longer distance operations and for light cleaning of pipelines. Cups can be effortlessly changed or adapted to different configurations as the application dictates.

The 2 cup design UC pigs can traverse 1.5D bends. The 3 cup design of this pig provides a positive seal between fluid interfaces while the 4 cup design is widely used for light cleaning of pipelines or batching/separation operations. The unique design of the Apache cup provides both the cleaning advantages of a scraper cup and the flexibility of a conical cup.

The UC series are available in 2” (51mm) through 14” (356mm) sized and can be easily configured with additional sealing elements to suit your individual applications. Other available options include:

• Gauging plates of aluminum or steel, and either in slotted or standard styles;
• Transmitter housings to accommodate tracking equipment.
