CUp versus disC

Cups Discs Accessories

Unidirectional, medium
cleaning performance
Due to lift-off effect, cups
are recommended when
large amounts of deposits
are expected
Bi-directional, high
cleaning performance
Superior scraping and
sealing performance due
to high contact pressure
at the pipe wall.
Depending on the pipelines condition and the objective of
the cleaning run, Ultimate Clean tools can be equipped
with combinations of different accessories:
Spider nose for flow bypass and debris suspension
Pressure bypass
Tool Location Transmitter & Electronic Pig Detector
Pipeline Data Logger

Customized applications
CUSTOMIZED CONFIGURATIONS dESCALING/DEWAXING TOOL
In many pipeline applications, a customized disc tool Special cups with tungsten carbide studs for removal
design will result in significantly improved performance. of severely encrusted debris such as scale and hard wax
Incorporating a range of customization options, the
Ultimate Clean tool can be adjusted to suit the
geometry requirements of specific pipeline systems,
thereby allowing safe passage of valves and fittings.

Examples of available configuration options:

Special disc sizing and mounting for progressive
removal of wax
Uni-directional discs for critical batching operations like
product removal with nitrogen or water removal in
pre-commissioning tasks
Special configurations for gate valves inaccessible with Bend-detection transmitter tool
standard disc or cup tools due to insufficient gap length
Providing a large carrying capacity, the 2-in-1 brush/
magnet configuration, available in sizes 20" and above,
has been shown to be highly efficient in collecting any
kind of steel debris
