Geophone Kit

Inline’s Geophone Kit gives you the convenience of having everything you need to track a pig in one convenient kit.  The kit includes:
  • Geoamp XT Geophone
  • Spike Probe
  • 50’ Cable
  • 6′ Sterio audio cable for vehicle audio hook-up
  • Noise Reducing Headphones
  • Shock resistant Carry Case
All of the above comes packaged in a heavy duty carry case that is appropriate for industrial use. The geophone allows a listener to hear extremely low sounds from great distances using the high-tech ground probe.  The probe will amplify the sound from an approaching pig from miles away in order to help indicate where exactly the pig is striking the pipeline welds.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

  • Super Sensitive Geophone: allows adjustable gain and excellent noise reduction and filtering. Can be used with headphones or plugged into vehicle radio/amplifier input for full speaker output.
  • Portable & Long Life Capability: with 4 AAA-cell operation allows over 6 months of continuous operation. The Geophone back plate can be simply pulled to allow quick change-out of batteries.
  • High Impact Protection Carry Case: to carry complete Geoamp set with geo probe and 50’ cable, headphones and 6‘ vehicle cable.
  • Extensive Field Testing: to ensure optimization of incorporated technology and exceptional operational performance.

Simple Pigging System with Drop-Out

This animation demonstrates an Inline Services VIPRS pig running through a line where a JB pig receiver unit is present. Before the pig is placed in the line the valve has been closed so that no product is present behind the VIPRS pig. As the pig moves through the line the inside of the pipe is cleaned and excess product is pushed through to the destination. Once the pig triggers the magnetic pig senor and reaches the JB receiver unit, the unit is removed with the pig inside. Once the pig is removed, the receiver is returned to the pipe.

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.
