Dualco S.O.L.U. Remote Automation
The Dualco SCADA-Operated Lubrication Unit (S.O.L.U.) is a portable digital interface designed for remote automation to maintain proper lube levels in all lubricated valves. It is the solution for accurate, real-time documentation of valve lubrication and can be operated from a car, truck, or trailer.
Dualco SCADA Operated Valve Lubrication Unit
Given that 54% of valve failures are related to improper or inadequate lubrication, the Dualco SCADA 12100 (S.O.L.U.) is positioned to assist in improved maintenance and operations of valves.
SCADA Operated Lubrication Unit
DUALCO focuses on improving valve maintenance and repairs by tackling the issues associated with improper or inadequate lubrication, which contributes to over half of the valve failures. By improving valve operation, downtime from failures decreases, increasing profits and productivity, and by maintaining the equipment better, the useful life of the valves should rise. Improved functionality leads to improved efficiency and lowers labor expenses and waste in grease, which improves environmental impact.
The S.O.L.U. can either be stationary or portable and delivers accurate real-time volume readout reports. It records and displays wellbore pressures during maintenance. It runs automatically and will shut down once the valve cavity (or void) is full of lubricant (or sealant). The S.O.L.U. eliminates the need for a second person to operate the grease pump. It is programmable to accommodate various valve sizes and working pressures.
