Aluminum extensions can be attached to enable detection of the pig’s passage on buried pipelines. All pressure sealing components, including the isolation ball valve, remain below the extension module. Available in lengths of 2′ to 8′.
THE MODEL 67 IS A VISUAL FLAG INDICATOR WITH MANUAL RESET AND COMES STANDARD WITH AN ISOLATION BALL VALVE.
The Model 67 adds safety and servicing options to our existing line of intrusive pig passage indicators. Like other available models in the patented pigPRO™ series, it reliably detects the precise location of a cleaning pig as it travels within the pipeline network. When a pig passes the pigPRO™’s intruding plunger, it activates the plunger and triggers a visual flag indicator, signaling the pig’s location. Incorporating a customized BV with an extended lower housing into the design of our model 67 pigPRO™ allows for a safe and simple isolation of the pig passage indicator from pipeline pressure for inspection, maintenance or repair. Complete removal and re-installation on any pressurized line is easy using the included tool kit and does not require specialized hot tap professionals or equipment.

Simple Pigging System with Drop-Out
Simple Pigging System Closure
This animation demonstrates a simple pigging system closure. Inline’s VIPRS pig is positioned in the launcher as the product is run through the pipeline. At the end of the product run, the VIPRS pig is launched to remove all product from the line. The pig will trigger the indicator to alert that the pig has reached the end of the line.
Bi-Directional Pigging
This animation demonstrates Bi Directional Pigging. Inline’s VIPRS pig positioned in the launcher as product is run through the pipeline. At the end of the product run, the VIPRS pig is launched to remove all product from the line. When the VIPRS pig reaches the JB receiver, the propelling media is turned-off. When this happens the VIPRS pig is resting at the jail bar in the JB receiver; propellant is used on the receiver side of the pig to return it to the launcher.
Automated CIP System
This animation demonstrates a fully automated VIPRS bi directional pigging process system with CIP. Inline’s VIPRS pig is first positioned in the pig launcher. The product is pumped from the storage tank to the destination. The VIPRS pig is then launched to push the remaining product to the destination and captured in the VIPRS wash chamber at the destination station. Next, the CIP solution is pumped through the line to wash the chamber and pig. Finally, the pig pushes the CIP solution out of the piping and leaving the pig clean and ready for the next product run.
