Control Head
Purpose
Used to seal wireline or slickline in high pressure or volatile conditions.
Operation
Used in high pressure conditions to seal wireline / slickline by pumping varying viscosities of grease around wireline / slickline as it runs through a series of tubes.
Assemble the control head with the corresponding grease tubes for the line size to be used, the wireline / slickline will have to be threaded through either a stuffing box or a pack off that will be attached to the top of the control head.
Attach the control head to the lubricator, attach the pressure line, exhaust line to the control head, as well as the control line to the stuffing box or pack off.
Precautions
It is recommended that proper training is acquired before use of any grease injection system. Ensure that the grease tubes (flow tubes) ID matches the line size to be used.
