1.0 GENERAL
The AM5K Wireline Measuring Device is a compact and lightweight device for
measuring both wireline depth and tension. The device is designed to be mounted to
the spooling arm of a wireline unit. It is unique to other measuring devices in that it
measures both depth and tension on wireline cables from .190” to .494”. This device
will work on both open and cased hole wireline units which allows standardization on a
measuring head for all types of operations.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
¾ Straight-line measurement (cable sizes can be changed without affecting
measurement)
¾ Dual Tangential Measuring Wheels made from specially hardened steel
¾ Accepts cable sizes from .190” to .494” diameter (4.8 mm to 12.55 mm)
¾ Lightweight design with integral tension makes the device ideal for high angle
rigups
¾ Device opens up to provide easy cable installation and removal, by removing a
single pin
¾ Includes both horizontal and vertical guide rollers to minimize measuring
wheel loading
¾ Rollers are oversized to increase reliability and reduce maintenance
¾ Guide rollers are made from composite material to reduce weight and cable
wear
¾ Rear or Center spooling arm mount to minimize head “jerking”
¾ Tension Load Axle and amplifier can be configured for different outputs.
¾ Digital Magnetic Mark Detector
¾ Accepts single or dual encoders
¾ Supports fully independent backup depth measuring system using a magnetic
pickup
¾ Backup depth system reduces drag on measuring wheel by eliminating
mechanical drive cable
¾ Encoder, Mark Detector, and Tension amplifier certified for Zone II area use
¾ Anodized aluminum frame. All steel parts are plated or SST
