Torque does not reveal actual tension
The applied torque does not guarantee the actual tension of the bolt, and the loss of fastening during the campaign can cause leaks, cuts, liner damage, and stoppages.
Actual tension monitored throughout the campaign
Sensor system that measures the actual tension of bolts 24/7 and transmits the information to a web platform. It allows characterizing tension loss, generating alerts, and planning retorque or maintenance actions.
Benefits
Real and continuous tension monitoring
Measures actual tension and not just torque, with 24/7 monitoring, antenna coverage up to 300 m, multiple bolt sizes, and access through a web platform.
Less slack and leaks
Reduces slack, bolt cuts, and slurry leaks.
Failure prevention
Helps prevent unscheduled maintenance and liner drop.
Action planning
Provides evidence to plan actions during the campaign.
