Retractable Injection Quill With Safety Clamp

Verito Engineering Private Limited’s Retractable Injection Quill with Safety Clamp is an advanced solution for precise chemical injection into pipelines or vessels. Designed with an accurate locking mechanism, it enables easy insertion and removal of the injection quill shafts under full process pressure, eliminating the need for system shutdowns. This system is crucial for continuous operations, especially in industrial applications where process conditions may cause quills or nozzles to become blocked due to particles or fouling.

Overview: The Retractable Injection Quill ensures efficient injection of chemicals, such as corrosion inhibitors or process additives, into liquid, gas, or mixed-phase systems. The ability to service the quill without halting operations offers a significant advantage, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. With options for shut-off valves and check valves, this system ensures both precision and safety in chemical dosing operations.

 

 

 

Key Features and Benefits

 

Retractable Design for Online Servicing

  • The quill’s retractable feature allows it to be serviced while the system is operational. Nozzles can be easily removed for inspection, cleaning, or replacement without interrupting the process, providing a major advantage in industries where continuous operation is essential.

Safety Clamp Mechanism

  • The safety clamp ensures secure positioning of the quill during operation and prevents accidental ejection due to pressure buildup, providing enhanced safety during high-pressure operations. Additionally, a retractor tool is advised for pressures above 150 psi to control the retraction against process pressure.

Shut-Off and Check Valve Options

  • The system features a shut-off valve at the end of the quill for controlled injection or sampling. An optional check valve ensures that process fluids do not backflow into the injection system, protecting equipment and maintaining process integrity.

Adjustable Quill for Precise Positioning

  • The quill is designed with adjustability, allowing precise positioning within the process stream for optimal chemical distribution and mixing. This ensures that additives are injected directly into the fluid flow, improving the efficiency and uniformity of the chemical treatment.

Durable and Corrosion-Resistant Materials

  • Constructed from corrosion-resistant materials like SS316, Alloy 20, and Hastelloy, the quill is capable of withstanding harsh chemicals and aggressive process conditions. Other materials like CPVC are also available, depending on specific chemical compatibility requirements.

High-Pressure and Temperature Handling

  • With a pressure rating of up to 300 psi and the ability to operate at temperatures up to 500°F, the quill is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. The graphite packing ensures a reliable seal, withstanding temperatures up to 700°F.

Welded Safety Collar

  • The quill includes a welded safety collar to ensure the equipment remains securely in place, enhancing the safety of operations, especially in high-pressure environments.

Multiple Size Options

  • Standard sizes include ½", ¾", and 1" MNPT, with options available up to 3" MNPT. The quill’s internal diameter is ¼", and custom sizes can be manufactured based on specific process requirements.

Quill Restraint for Insertion/Removal

  • A restraint mechanism secures the quill during insertion and removal, preventing unwanted movement and ensuring operator safety during high-pressure operations.

 

Applications

 

Oil & Gas Industry

  • Widely used for injecting corrosion inhibitors, biocides, and other chemicals into process pipelines in upstream and downstream applications.

Refining and Petrochemical Industries

  • Ensures uniform chemical distribution in complex process streams.

Power Generation

  • Injection of chemicals to control corrosion and scaling in boiler feedwater systems and cooling towers

Water Treatment

  • Dosing of disinfectants, pH adjusters, and other additives into water systems.

General Chemical Processing

  • Suitable for any process where precise chemical dosing and continuous operation are critical.
