Components and Functioning of Pig Transmitter

The pig transmitter consists of an electronic transmitter installed on the pig and an electronic receiver on the ground. The transmitter emits electromagnetic signals constantly and regularly, which travel through the pipe wall and overburden. The receiver, located on the ground, receives the emitted signals, processes them, and sends a response. The transmission of signals between the transmitter and receiver is of utmost significance, enabling effective communication during the pigging operation.

Usage of Pig Transmitter

Considerations such as working pressure and running speed are vital when using a pig transmitter. Power source selection should be based on pipe diameter, length, and elevation difference. Additionally, a displacement control device can be used to regulate the pig’s operating speed. The operation steps for using a pig transmitter involve opening and attaching the transmitter to the pig, testing the receiver for signal reception, checking and replacing the sealing ring if necessary, placing the pig into the pipeline for cleaning, and performing post-pigging steps such as opening the back cover, unplugging the plug switch, and disconnecting the power supply.

Electronic Positioning Receiver

An electronic positioning receiver is an indispensable tool for accurate pig tracking and pipeline maintenance. It consists of a headset and a probe and is a battery-powered portable instrument designed for field application. The receiver’s primary function is to locate the specific position of the electronic pig, monitor its movement and position within the pipeline, and measure the buried depth of the pipeline.

Receiving Signal Experiment

To ensure optimal performance, it is crucial to test the receiver’s signal reception. This can be done by powering the receiver, adjusting the gain, and maintaining a suitable distance between the pig and the receiver probe. Observing the receiver meter for signal indication provides valuable insights into the effectiveness of signal transmission.

Conclusion

Pig transmitter plays a vital role in intelligent pipeline cleaning. Its components, functioning, usage, and battery replacement methods are essential aspects to consider for efficient maintenance. By utilizing an electronic positioning receiver, accurate pig tracking and pipeline maintenance become achievable, leading to enhanced operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Implementing these technologies and techniques ensures the smooth functioning and longevity of pipelines, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity in various industries.
