The Maintenance of Mud Centrifuge and Cleaner

Be similar to the first oilfield solids control system expert tip on maintenance of vibrating screen, the decanter and cleaner should also make a complete maintenance every 500 hours of operation, which includes checking screen frame, bearing and replacing the spring. Make sure there is no residual drilling fluid in all the pipes, sand pump and flow spiral device before stopped used in winter, and clean the flow pipe and spiral device with clear water.

Decanter centrifuge is the oilfield solids control equipment of final phase. It is used after the equipment of shale shaker, degasser, desander, desilter, mud cleaner and other related equipment. The product can process drilling fluid of weighted type, unweighted type, water-based type and oil-based type. By using mechanical energy to increase gravitational force up to over 3000 which is applied on the solids, it can separate both heavy and fine solids from drilling fluid. When working with the other solid control equipment, the product shows great superiority in keeping proper mud weight and viscosity. Then, the drilling fluid can meet the requirements of oil drilling completely.
The Maintenance of the Centrifuge
On one hand, check the magnetic plug on the bottom of gear box and remove the metal debris for every 100 hours running on end. On the other hand, checking coupler’s oil once every 100 hours of operation, if lower than the oil scale line, you should add turbine oil timely. What’s more, the level of belt tension must also be examined for every 100 hours running, thus keeping the device in a normal order, we do not allow the belt to run with no shield protection.

The main reason to choose centrifugal pump for drilling

The main reason of why to choose centrifugal pump for drilling is due to the advantages of the centrifugal pump. The centrifugal pump possesses simple and compact structure. And as for the same deliver value, the centrifugal pump has little occupation space and light weight, leading to less material consumption. And it has low requirements to the basic requirements, so it has less manufacturing and installing cost. In addition, the centrifugal pump is able to operate with high speed by using direct connection of several eletromotor, leading to easy installation of the transmission device. And there is no valve inside of the centrifugal pump, so it is suitable for deliver suspension liquid. And the special design also is able to deliver suspension liquid with large solid. And it is able to manufacture the centrifugal pump with materials that have chemical corrosion performance. And another advantage of the centrifugal pump is that it has simple structure, few components, less fault, long service period, convenient management as well as reliable working. And the output quality of the centrifugal pump can be adjusted by discharging valve arbitrarily. And there is no impulse phenomenon due to uniform tap.
However, another reason of why to choose centrifugal pump is the future development of the centrifugal pump. The present development of the centrifugal pump has its own disadvantages. Before running, it is possible to make the pump full of liquid. And it is not suitable for delivering small volume and large pressure head, which makes the centrifugal pump has low efficiency and limited performance. Facing incomplete design and wrong operation, it is easy to influence the next step. And the incorrect installation is easy to cause air bind phenomenon. And its working efficiency is much lower than that of the piston pump. In order to solve these problems, the centrifugal pump is developing greatly. Therefore, the future of the centrifugal is hopeful and bright, which is the reason of why to choose centrifugal pump.

KOSUN Drilling Mud Cleaner Has More Advantages

Drilling fluids mud cleaner is the second or third stage separation equipment of drilling liquid, which deals with the mud after being treated by the first grade separation equipment. Drilling fluid mud cleaner mainly consist of desanding cleaner and desilter cleaner.
Mud Cleaner Advantages:
1. Environmentally Efficient
The mud cleaner provides efficient removal of sand and silt particles larger than 20 microns, and some as small as 15 microns. Removing and drying drilled solids helps meet environmental regulations by minimizing waste generated and reducing disposal cost.
2. High Performance
Processing capacity of 1,000 gpm with the 2-12 oilfield drilling desander and 900 gpm with the desilter concentrates solids onto a classification shaker
3. Versatile
The mud cleaner can be operated with the 2-12 desander, desilter or both to process weighted or unweighted fluid systems.
4. Extends Equipment Life
The mud cleaner helps minimize maintenance, repair and replacement of downstream equipment.
5. Reduces Operating Cost
The mud cleaner reduces sand and silt-size particles and saves liquid, thus reducing mud cost, chances of stuck pipe and lost circulation and improving rate of penetration.
6. Reduces Disposal Cost
The mud cleaner minimizes waste generated thus reducing disposal cost.
All units can be provided with 380V / 50Hz or 460V / 60Hz; generate a noise level less than 80 decibels (dB); and are fitted with an adjustable deck capable of inclinations of -2 to +5 degrees.

What does drilling mud cleaner maintenance include ?

Drilling fluid mud cleaner is the second or third stage separation equipment of drilling liquid, which deals with the mud after being treated by the first grade separation equipment. Drilling fluid mud cleaner mainly consist of desanding cleaner and desilter cleaner.
At the same time mud cleaner has the higher cleaning function compared with separated desander and desilter. In addition to the reasonable design process, it equals another shale shaker KOSUN mud cleaner structure is compact, it occupies small space and the function is powerful. Mud cleaner is the ideal device of the second class and the third class solid control to treat the drilling mud.
Mud cleaner maintenance including
1 Vvibration motor maintenance
(1)Clean dust on shell regularly
(2)Before operating, must check the bolts to confirm whether there is loose or not. Otherwise, we must screw bolts tight before running shaker
(3)Inspect the cable, whether there is wear, hold down, crushing, etc.
(4)The vibration motor should be under good lubrication during operation: Motors before fixed on shaker, the bearing is filled with SKF specific lubricate grease, the temperature range is -40 ~ 200℃
2 Shaker screen maintenance
(1)Before every shut off, the shaker should run without any load for 5-10 minutes, at the same time, use clean water to flush screen clean
(2)Every time finish operation, the shaker frame and screen should be flushed by water. Please replace new screen or repair the damaged screen once it is found damage, otherwise large cutting may dropped into the clean mud and influence the following process.
3 Electric cabinet maintenance
4 Wear parts replacement The user should check and replace the wear parts regularly, except for vibration motor, shaker screen, electric cabinet mentioned above, locking wedge, composite vibration spring, sealing rubber should be replaced at once.
