Pigging Solutions and Implementation

  • Supply Scope: sanitary pigging systems, automatic pig launchers and receivers, pipeline cleaning pigs, pigging automation system, pipeline pigging products, like piggable elbows, tees, pig speed controller, pig tracking device, etc., on-site installation and commissioning, technical training, after-sales services.
  • The syrup medicine pigging project is a relatively long distance pigging project, the longest pipeline is 280m. The pigging pipe size is ISO2inch. We choose 2inch automatic pigging systems and Hyperfore one-piece pipe cleaning pigs.
  • Hyperfore pig speed controlling system is used to make the pig move at a constant speed, and to protect the pipeline cleaning pig. Take the 280m pipeline for example, the pigging process last only for 7 minutes, the product recovery rate is over 95%. 
  • Hyperfore adopts a 7-inch HMI and SCADA system to automatically control the pigging process. The automation system reduces human errors and labor cost. It also supports remote operation via any iOS/Android smartphone or tablet, or Mac/Win operating systems, allowing users to monitor the pipeline cleaning process and pigging operation anytime, anywhere.
  • By installing a pipeline pig tracking device on the wastewater discharge pipe to monitor ion concentration, Hyperfore engineer is able to know the performance of pipeline pigging process, optimizing the usage of cleaning agents and water, and promoting the environmental sustainability.
