Deflection indicator systems are used essentially as weight indicators for small drilling rigs. They function with the measurement of the misalignment in main bearings before starting the drilling job. It ensures optimal efficiency if placed on a mast or near a derrick. It’s the most preferred instrument for drilling rigs since deflection indicators are easy to use and very effective.
You can even select and change the display values of the deflection indicator through a panel if you’re skilled enough to operate it. It comprises multiple values according to the drilling task needs.
Whether you need to identify the weight of cylinders or their temperature, a deflection indicator can display the exact measurements without mechanical adjustments.
They’re simple drilling instruments since the engineer only needs to repeat value selection for the measurement of numbers. The most attractive feature of a deflection indicator system is that it allows easy transfer of data from the device to the computer for future analysis and long-term storage of data.
Here are the key benefits of deflection indicator systems.
Immediate Use
It’s always prepared for immediate use and doesn’t need any operator to activate it. Drilling equipment manufacturers can prepare the machine, fill it with vital indicator fluid, testify, and thoroughly seal it before distributing it to industrial sites.
Advanced Flexibility
Modern deflection indicator systems come with advanced flexibility to setup any drilling task. They can be placed anywhere near the drilling situation.
Moreover, they’re easy to move from one area to another. These portable drilling instruments come in a sturdy steel box that includes built-in handles to ensure maximum safety.
Multiple Dials
Besides offering ease of usage and flexibility, deflection indicators are available in multiple dials. These machines are able to provide sizes and numbers of lines in units like pounds, kilograms, and deca-newtons.
The main purpose of these instruments is to provide an easier way to read measurements of complex data.
