Crown Oilfield Instrumentation Is Changing How the Industry Reads a Mud Gauge

To increase safety and pressure reading accuracy, Crown has redesigned its unitized mud gauge (UMG).
 
LAFAYETTE, La. - Dec. 3, 2015 - PRLog -- Crown Oilfield Instrumentation is proud to introduce its new flanged unitized mud gauge.  Recently unveiled at the Louisiana Oil and Gas Exposition, our flanged unitized mud gauge has been redesigned from the inside out to ensure safe pressure management. This all-in-one design keeps gauge internals clean and free from harsh chemicals, and in the field it increases overall gauge life.

When connecting threads wear out, traditional Type D mud gauges leak and, in extreme circumstances and pressure fluctuations, pop off the standpipe.  With Crown’s all new flange construction, eight bolts mount the mud gauge securely to the standpipe, providing a safer, more secure fitting.  The flange offers a long-lasing, durable connection between gauge and pipe, reducing costly repair and downtime.

Crown’s 360 degree gauge housing connects the gauge neck and seals gauge and stem completely.  The new damper assembly, another new feature, makes for easier pressure reading by reducing dial bounce.  Unlike Type D mud gauges, Crown’s new UMG has a build in pop-off connection.  In extreme pressure kicks, gauge internals can be damaged; however, the pop-off releases internal gauge pressure during extreme, potentially damaging pressure fluctuations.

Crown Oilfield Instrumentation, a Louisiana based gauge manufacturer, has been serving the oil and gas industry for nearly 40 years.  Crown offers a complete line of hydraulic and digital pressure gauges, all at factory direct pricing.  For more information about Crown's new UMG, contact us at https://www.drillinginstruments.com/standpipe-pressure-ga....
