Description

The EMT Retrieval Tool offers a precise solution for safely and efficiently loading and removing equipment such as Coupons, Probes, and injection and sampling tubes. It’s specifically designed to work with retractable ER probes, effectively porting pressure into service valves. This tool allows workers to open valves and retrieve items without stopping productivity. Its compact, non-retractable design enhances safety and fits seamlessly with retrieval fittings. Furthermore, it is compatible with all 2″ standard high-pressure access systems, eliminating the need for special adapters.

Technical Specifications of the EMT Retrieval Tool

The retrieval tool boasts a pressure compatibility of up to 45 mPa and a temperature tolerance ranging from -20 to 100℃. It is suitable for pipe diameters of DN100 or greater. The tool handles petroleum products, gas, and other non-corrosive fluids efficiently. Under standard usage conditions, the installation height of the equipment generally does not exceed 1.5 meters, depending on the pipe diameter.

Equipment Structure

Key components of the EMT Corrosion Coupon Retrieval Tool include:

Hammer Nut: Connects the base to the Service Valve and features a durable PTFE coating that enhances longevity.
Service Valve: This component attaches to the Retriever, adjusting internal pressure and is also coated with PTFE for added durability.
Bleed Valve: Constructed from stainless steel, it safely vents the tool’s internal pressure.
Bypass Valve: Also made from stainless steel, it helps balance the tool’s internal pressure.
Adapter: A stainless steel component that connects corrosion coupons to the retriever.
Plug Drive: Assists in installing and removing corrosion coupon drive plugs, made from durable stainless steel.
Plug Lifter: Built from high-intensity magnetic steel, it is essential for linking magnetic steel plugs.
Stop Block: A stainless steel component that secures the Plug Lifter in place.
Retriever: Made from stainless steel, it connects the gear plate valve to install and lift corrosion coupons.

Benefits of the EMT Retrieval Tool

Safety: The EMT Retrieval Tool includes several fail-safe mechanisms that ensure secure operation. Its Servo Valve provides precise control, significantly reducing the risk of accidents. Each component undergoes rigorous safety testing to guarantee reliability, minimizing operators’ exposure to hazards.

Efficiency: The servo valves boast swift response times, allowing for quick retrieval of items, which saves significant time. These tools require minimal energy to produce maximum output, and automated features reduce the need for manual adjustments.

Productivity: The tool enhances workflow with its speedy performance. The accuracy of the servo valve improves system throughput, supporting continuous operation without delays. This streamlining of tasks boosts overall output, making the retrieval tool a key asset in maintaining high productivity levels.

Durability: Designed for longevity, the EMT Retrieval Tool is built to withstand harsh conditions. Its servo valves feature wear-resistant designs, ensuring that both tools maintain their performance over extended periods. This durability promises reduced maintenance and replacement needs, contributing to long-term cost savings.

Applications of the EMT Retrieval Tool

The retrieval tool serves as a practical device for extracting tools from pipelines, including corrosion coupons and chemical injection quills. Corrosion coupons, small metal strips, are used to test the corrosion rate within the pipeline. Chemical injection quills facilitate the introduction of chemicals into pipes to prevent rust and other complications.

Using the retrieval tool simplifies the removal of these tools from the pipeline, and there is no need for operators to shut down the pipeline system. Before employing the tool, it’s crucial to ensure that the plate valve is either completely open or closed. Operators should then gently turn the plate valve hex in the opposite direction. After turning, the top hex should stand up straight, forming a T-shape with the equipment’s main part. Care must be taken during this process, as improper handling may result in permanent damage to the system.

In summary, the EMT Retrieval Tool and Servo Valve represent critical advancements in pipeline maintenance technology, offering enhanced safety, efficiency, productivity, and durability. These features collectively make the tool an indispensable part of modern pipeline operations, streamlining maintenance tasks and ensuring the integrity of pipeline systems.
