ClampOn PIG Detection

Non-intrusive Pig Detection System

The ClampOn DSP PIG Detector is a non-intrusive pig detection system designed to act as a first-stage alarm system for pig detection. It provides accurate and reliable registration of the time when a pig is passing and transmits the signal to operator. The detector can also indicate the amount of debris preceding the pig during cleaning operations.

Why do you need a pig detector?

Pigging is part of day-to-day operations on many offshore and onshore installations. The operator requires a reliable method of confirming a pig successfully launched, arrived at the receiver, or passed certain points of interest anywhere along the pipeline. Providing reliable information about the passage of the pig increases pipeline integrity and leads to cost savings. The ClampOn PIG Detector provides reliable detection of any type of pig, using non-intrusive ultrasonic technology.
