Breakout Unit

Breakout Unit

The Cougar BU3-15000 Breakout Unit is an extremely robust make/break machine. The unit allows the operator to apply a torque to a connection without applying a damaging side load - guaranteeing accurate connection make up and easy, fast servicing of drilling tools and motors.

The unit consists of a breakout bed with a stand alone control console, and a data logging acquisition system.

The breakout bed consists of a fixed head along with a power traversing tailstock. The fixed head on the bed applies the torque while the traversing head allows the operator to precisely position the location of the reactive torque. Locating the torque cylinders on the fixed end of the bed allows for simple trouble free service.

The bed also features enclosed traverse drives for added safety and less maintenance and a full drip tray to contain fluids. The clamping force is uniformly applied and proportional to the diameter to ensure that delicate components are not damaged during servicing.

The control console has the only electrical connections required to operate the breakout. This stand alone control console allows maximum flexibility of unit placement for ease of use and safety.
