Intrusive Pig Signallers

Pig signallers are used to provide confirmation of the movement of pipeline pigs through a pipeline.

Intrusive Pig Signallers are mechanically operated and are generally bi directional. They have mechanically operated signal flags which can be reset and are suitable for mounting on both vertical and horizontal pipelines. The indicating device, 'Flag', is normally set in the horizontal position for "pig not passed" and vertical for "pig passed" condition with a manual latch reset to the horizontal position. When moving through production pipework and pipelines so that the time/location of the PIG is known. In addition, it can estimate accumulated debris in front of the PIG which can help you identify in which section of a pipe debris is being built up.




What are Intrusive Pig Signallers?

Intrusive Pig Signallers are specialized devices used in pipeline pigging operations to track the location and movement of pigs inside the pipeline. They are called “intrusive” because they are mechanically or electronically installed directly onto the pipeline, often requiring a small section to be modified or tapped to accommodate the signaler.

These devices ensure operators know exactly where the pig is at all times, which is critical for safe, efficient, and controlled pigging operations, especially in long-distance oil, gas, water, or chemical pipelines.
