Hydraulic Operated Drilling Chokes
The Hydraulic Operated Drilling Chokes used in choke and kill manifolds are designed to ensure pressure control during drilling and production operations. The Hydraulic Operated Drilling Chokes meet all current API 16C requirements.
- Size: 2 1/16” ÷ 3 1/16”;
- Pressure rating: 2,000 ÷ 10,000 PSI;
- Orifice size: 2”;
- End to end connections: flanges or threaded, according API 6A;
- Cylindrical gate and large body provide high flow capacity and extremely quiet operation;
- Gate and seat made by tungsten carbide for abrasive and corrosive fluids on request;
- Gate and seat are reversible for double life;
- Pressure balance stem lowers torque operation;
- Unidirectional flow;
- Sensor LVDT type attached to the choke stem.
Actuator:
- Linear hydraulic double action
