The Derrick Flo-Line Primer maximizes the solids removal capabilities of drilling rigs by effectively removing hydrated clays (gumbo) and large drilled cuttings
The Derrick Flo-Line Primer maximizes the solids removal capabilities of drilling rigs by effectively removing hydrated clays (gumbo) and large drilled cuttings. These solids have proven to be difficult to remove with any type of vibratory motion, thus it is important to remove them before they reach the downstream shale shakers. This enables the shakers to run finer screens without blinding, leading to lower dilution and operating costs.
Features:
- The Primer is powered by a rugged 1.5 hp drive motor for superior performance and durability.
- The Primer utilizes a variable speed conveyor system to transport solids off the machine without vibration. This enables precise control over solids conveyance speed as loading or pump rates increase.
- The long-life inclined synthetic conveyor belt is available in several mesh sizes, allowing control over cuttings' dryness and conveyance capacity.
- Four access doors, one located on each side and two on the back of the machine, allow for easy clean out and simplified belt replacement.
The Flo-Line Primer's versatility in removing a full size range of solids from both water based and oil based mud systems makes it an asset to any drilling program.
