Both will offer additional safety in high-pressure applications where substantial amounts of solids and abrasives are present. The new CORTEC CX-RV2.6 Pneumatic Pressure Relief System is designed to provide rapid pressure relief within high-pressure systems, including mud pumps, managed-pressure drilling manifolds, and fracture relief systems. This unique, rugged, all-pneumatic system replaces less reliable all- mechanical devices and requires only 80 psi minimum air supply to function. Tested by the company over thousands of pressure cycles, the CX-RV2.6 was consistent with tripping results within 1% or less of the pressure set points. Mike Chauvin, manager of controls and automation, said, “Users have the ability to set an auto and manual reset mode along with the reassurance that the choke and controller will function efficiently when needed, protecting personnel and preserving operational safety on-site.” The company’s second innovation is the CX-HB3.0 Hydra-Balance Choke and Panel System, which offers an increased level of value and functionality within managed-pressure drilling, underbalanced drilling, and other drilling set point applications. Designed as a hydraulic dual choke unit, it can be controlled by a compact remote panel installed in close proximity to the operator. Users looking for a simple set point solution will notice the higher levels of accuracy, ease of use, and field-friendly serviceability. CORTEC maintains the CX-HB3.0 is designed to exceed the response level and precision of many other existing options today. Featuring a main hydraulic power unit (HPU) and human-machine interface (HMI) control panel with remote HMI panel integration, the compact system offers a set point accuracy of +/-25 or less psi and operating pressure range up to 2500 psi. Jeff Parker, senior business development - drilling products said, “This new choke and control panel package . . . will offer end users unparalleled value by delivering highly precise set point control in a simple, user-friendly package that minimizes operational costs.” Hydra-Balance Choke Panel System.
