In case of power outage, will we still be able to monitor the level in the riser?
In a power outage, the EC-Drill® control system and riser sensors remain operational via UPS backup, ensuring continuous riser level monitoring even if the pump loses power.
Yes, the EC-Drill® control system, including the riser sensors are on UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply) battery backup. The riser level reading remains available in event of power failure. The main power for the EC-Drill® pump module would be lost with the remaining power on the rig and is placed in the rig power shedding philosophy at a similar level to the rig mud pumps.
