3.0 Lifting Procedure

Certified drawings provided with the equipment will take precedence over any

information in this manual.

Lift the degasser only at lift points only. Use properly rated slings capable of handling the weight of the equipment. Look for a buildup of dried solids or unsecured equipment on the unit that may fall during the lift or cause the lift load to exceed those listed in this manual. Use spreaders to avoid damage to the unit. Lift the unit where indicated and placed in position on the support structure

THERE ARE 4 LIFT POINTS

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIFT THE

WHOLE DEGASSER FROM HERE.

THIS IS ONLY TO LIFT THE LID.



4.0 Installation Procedure

The vAK Degassers are not shipped with both suction and discharge piping. If ordered, remove any coverings from the suction and discharge ports. Remove all tape and strapping to prepare the equipment for inspection. The vAK Degassers should be inspected for shipping damage. Manipulate all controls and moving parts to determine that they are mechanically operable. If inspection reveals that the equipment has been damaged in shipment, a report should be filed promptly with the transporting company involved.

FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL, OPERATE AND MAINTAIN DEGASSERS AND/OR

COMPONENTS CAN CAUSE SEVERE INJURY.

Location The vAK Degasser should be installed on or near the mud pit with the bottom of the skid not to exceed 3 feet above the normal operating mud level. Rig design and mud tank design will dictate the placement of the vAK.

Foundation/Substructure Requirements

The mud tank or support structure on which the degasser is to be installed must be capable of supporting the maximum wet weight listed in this manual.

Flow Connections

Suction and discharge pipe should be kept as short as possible. For best results, the bottom of the inlet pipe should be at least six (6) inches above the tank floor and roughly three (3) feet below mud level. The discharge pipe should extend below the operating mud level. A weir is normally used to permit overflow between suction and discharge pits. A vent line from the vacuum pump outlet manifold to a safe area should be installed and connected to the flare stack with proper back flow prevention.

Electrical Installation

1. A qualified electrician should make all electric connections to the unit. Check motor rotation. 2. Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc. has approved the electric motor for Class 1, Group D hazardous locations. It is strongly recommended that the user refers to the National Electric Code (NEC), Article 501, on Class 1 locations or other codes as applicable so as to select proper electrical equipment for connection of the motor. 3. The service line should be equipped with a disconnecting devise having sufficient interrupting capacity to clear the maximum fault current capability of the immediate power supply system, in the event of a short circuit not cleared by the branch circuit over current devices provided in the motor starters. 4. Make sure unit is grounded.

CAUTION: USER MUST PROVIDE A DISCONNECTION DEVICE BREAKER IN

ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.

5. Turn on power momentarily and check for correct rotation. If it is not correct, the qualified licensed electrician should shut off the power at the breaker and lock it out. Then disconnect and interchange any two of the three wires of the power cord where the connection is made.



5.0 Operation

Before proceeding, check all fasteners to make sure that they are tight and that all parts

are secure prior to continuing. Under no circumstances shall the degasser be operated

without an installed belt drive guard.

For maintenance repair, or cleaning, follow approved positive electrical “lock out and tag” procedures. All wire connections must be secure, protected, and covered. Prior to starting, a visual inspection should be made of the unit. If the unit has to be moved or has not run for an extended time then a more thorough inspection process would be warranted to determine that dried solids have not accumulated within the vessel.

Start Up

1. After installing and thoroughly inspecting the unit make sure that no foreign objects are laying on the degasser. 2. Drain overflow tank. 3. Check the oil in the vacuum pump and change if dirty or contaminated with water. Change the oil at least once each month. Use SAE30 or 40 oil, non-detergent. 4. Check the belts. 5. Open the 1” valve in the vertical vacuum line between the float operated control valve and the vacuum pump. 6. Adjust the butterfly valve on the suction line. 7. Start the motor on the vacuum pump. 8. Open the jet nozzle valve. 9. Open the valve in the mud line to the discharge jet nozzle.

While running

1. Check for proper rotation. It should be turning clockwise. Turn unit on and off, and look at which way the motor is rotating.

2. Make sure that there are no excessive or unusual vibration or noises originating in the unit.



6.0 Routine Maintenance

Use proper lock-out/tag-out precautions when performing maintenance and/or

when necessary.

Lubrication Check the crankcase oil level of the vacuum pump daily and add oil as needed to overflow point. Drain and replace oil at least once each month, for best performance. Replace with SAE30W - 40W non-detergent oil.

V-Belt The vacuum pump V-Belt may need to be tightened periodically.

Float and Three Way Valve The float and three way valve must be regularly checked to be sure that there is free movement and that the valve is still operational.



Trouble shooting

Problem Solution

LOW FLOW

CAUSE: Insufficient jet nozzle pressure. SOLUTION: Increase the mud flow to jet nozzle. CAUSE: Jet nozzle partially plugged. SOLUTION: Remove and clean jet nozzle. CAUSE: Mud suction covered by sand or plugged. SOLUTION: Remove sand or plugging. CAUSE: Butterfly valve partially closed. SOLUTION: Open butterfly valve.

AIR IN MUD

CAUSE: Leak in pump packing. SOLUTION: Check leaks; repack if required. CAUSE: Leak in discharge line between degasser and jet nozzle. SOLUTION: Tighten fittings on discharge piping. CAUSE: Suction line picking up air because insufficient mud level. SOLUTION: Lower suction pipe or throttle back on damper valve to decrease flow through unit.

VACCUM PUMP

CAUSE: The vacuum pump uses or discharges oil. SOLUTION: Piston rings are excessively worn or defective. Replace piston rings. CAUSE: Knocking in vacuum pump by worn or damaged crankpin bearings. SOLUTION: Check bearings and replace if necessary. CAUSE: Crankshaft is broken or cracked. SOLUTION: Check and repair as necessary. CAUSE: Connecting rods broken or loose. SOLUTION: Check and repair as necessary. CAUSE: Piston pins loose or missing. SOLUTION: Check and repair as necessary.

MOTOR CAUSE: Excessive motor noise or overheating. Motor bearings worn. SOLUTION: Check and repair as necessary.

7.0 Shut down and Storage

7.1 Emergency Shutdown

An emergency shutdown may be necessary to clear obstructions or to replace damaged or worn components.

1. LOCKOUT/TAGOUT ALL POWER. 2. Remove all obstructions and product from the degasser. 3. Inspect all components for damage or wear. Check degasser components in

accordance with the Maintenance Section of this document. 4. Replace all damaged or worn components. 5. Turn drive unit by hand to check for alignment and obstructions. 6. Restart the degasser in accordance with the Operation Section of this document.



7.2 Extended Shutdown

8.0 Technical Manual Contents

8.1 General Description

The vAK500, vAK1000, and vAK1200 take advantage of “thin strata” principle. The degassing vessel forces drill mud to flow over four internal baffle plates (vAk500) or seven internal baffle plates (vAK1000 and vAK 1200) with a large surface area so that a thin layer of mud is exposed to the vacuum within the vessel. The thin layer of mud shortens the distance that the gas must migrate through to escape or “break out” of the mud. Mud exits the vessel under the action of the venturi and is returned to the mud system. The operation of the degasser consists of three separate functions, mud circulation, vacuum creation, and gas removal. A venturi nozzle or jet nozzle located in the discharge piping creates vacuum within the vessel and circulates mud by drawing gas-entrained mud into the vessel. The jet nozzle can be plumbed to either the high or low pressure mud system. A float within the vessel controls a valve, which opens the tank to atmosphere, stopping the inlet flow of mud when the mud level gets too high. As the level drops the valve closes, vacuum is restored and the mud resumes flowing through the vessel. The vacuum pump runs continuously to evacuate gas from the vessel. The discharge gas is plumbed to the rig’s flare or environmental control system.

There are two means of degassing mud, vacuum or atmospheric. Tests indicate that vacuum degassing provides superior performance when drilling with weighted muds or when an un-weighted mud’s yield point is greater than 10. The Process Solutions vAK series is a compact design that minimizes deck space. This makes the vAK Degasser an effective means of removing entrained gas from the mud prior to re-circulation down hole. Typically, the vAK series is installed downstream of the sand trap ensuring that gas is removed from the mud prior to circulating through the mud system pumps or other solids control equipment.
