MECHANICAL FIRING HEAD
Product Series: TCP FH 1000 ***

LRI Perforating Systems Inc. offers a safe and reliable mechanical firing head for TCP applications. The firing head is activated by the impact of a drop bar on a firing pin; the drop bar strikes the firing pin, shearing a safety retaining washer and driving the pin downward to contact a percussion initiator (recommended, Pacific Scientific). The resultant detonation is transferred through the top sub to the gun system.

The LRI firing pin is hydraulically balanced and debris-friendly. Further, it incorporates a number of advanced features designed to improve reliability, and increase safety.

Features:

  • Allows safe operation with integrated no-go and firing pin safety retention washer. Additional no-go is available for placement above firing head (recommended).
  • Internal pin retention system; use of shear ring eliminates leak path caused by externally installed shear pin.
  • Only firing head available that incorporates additional safety ring to prevent accidental surface detonation.
  • Maintains differential pressure of 20 000 psi across initiator even after detonation.
  • Initiator housing locked in place at wellsite using the exclusive LRI safety spanner.
  • Hydraulically balanced firing pin prevents accidental detonation due to hydrostatic pressure.
  • Debris-friendly design ensures detonation even in the presence of debris at the head.
  • Compact design is compatible with industry standard top subs.
  • Withstands a drop of at least 10’ without movement of firing pin.
  • Accommodates easy redress in the field. Redress kit part #: TCP-FH-1500.
