Anchor Type Weight Indicators

Anchor Type


Dicks Oilfield Instrument Sales & Service Inc. anchor type weight indicators are made to be accurate and durable. Our systems are compatible with all major deadline anchors. Our anchor type weight indicator systems operate using a compression or tension load cell to display accurate, reliable measurements. When the load cell is compressed, hydraulic fluid is forced through the load cell to the weight indicator by way of a high-pressure hydraulic hose. Once the pressure reaches the indicator, the outer dial measures weight on bit, and the inner dial measures total hook load. Each gauge is designed with 2 pointers for more accurate readings, and the Vernier pointer offers 4:1 sensitivity and greater accuracy.

Hydro-Mast Weight Indicators

Hydro-Mast Weight Indicators

FAST, EASY LOAD CONTROL FOR SERVICE UNITS.

The easiest/most versatile way for a well servicing operation to control hook load while running a double-fast-line or swabbing with a sand line, is with a Hydro-Mast Weight Indicator.


This reliable hydraulic system will read weights of up to 360,000 Ib., whether the deadline is fastened to an anchor, traveling block or crown. It's ideal for any well servicing rig.


The system consists of an indicator, one or two-pad compression-type load cells (depending on the type of mast), interconnecting hydraulic hoses with quick-disconnect fittings at the gauge end, plus hydraulic fluid for the instrument and a hand pump. It is completely calibrated, sealed at the factory and comes ready to install and use.


When installed, the Hydro-Mast Weight Indicator will detect the slightest weight change. Such activity will cause the compression load cell to generate a hydraulic pressure signal which travels through the connecting hose to the Bourdon tube of the gauge. Tube movement drives the single and/or dual pointer indicator.

Three Configurations That Measure Up

Type HM-6-1 is a single pad load cell system with a zero-adjust six-inch gauge and adjustable damper. The target pointer can be set for the maximum weight desired. The single load cell senses the total weight of the mast and hook load, and it relays the hydraulic signal to the weight gauge. This system is available in ranges of 0-25,000, 0-50,000, 0-100,000 and 0-150,000 Ib.


Type HM-6-2 is a two-pad load cell system. The indicator has one six-inch gauge with a hook load pointer and adjustable target pointer.


Two smaller gauges provide the weight of each pad to help the operator equally distribute the load. Thus, an integrator provides the signal to the large gauge. Choose from capacities in ranges of 0-50,000, 0-100,000, 0-150,000 and 0-240,000 Ib.


Type HM-8-2, also a two-pad system, features a larger 8½ inch main gauge which utilizes a zero-adjust dial with two pointers. One pointer indicates hook load while the 4:1 ratio vernier provides a magnified indication of the slightest hook load changes. Capacities are available in ranges of 0-120,000, 0-150,000, 0-160,000, 0-240,000, 0-300,000 and 0-360,000 Ib.

Designed For Precision, Built To Last

weight indicator

The Hydro-Mast Weight Indicator provides accurate readings over its long service life. All systems are housed in a heavy-duty steel box with removable front and back doors to protect the gauges during shipment, installation, and removal. A two-inch diameter coupling is welded to the bottom of the cabinet for mounting on a pipe stand for increased visibility.


Additionally, these Dicks gauges are fluid-filled to lubricate, prevent rust, soften vibration, and avoid fogging.
