Wire / Cable Payout Meters / Sheaves

Wire Payout Meters and Sheaves

A.G.O. manufactures mechanical and electronic wire counters for measuring cable / wire payout. Lightweight plastic sheaves and aluminum snatch blocks are available.

MWC-2 Mechanical Borehole Wire Counter The MWC-2 wire counter is a portable meter used to measure the length of cable deployed down a drill hole. The unit is attached to the drill collar by three equally spaced clamping bolts that secure the counter firmly in place. The sheave wheel may be turned to allow clear access of tools into the drill hole. standard 0.333 meter circumference sheave groove machined to match clients' cable mechanical counter in meters and decimeters, or optionally, in feet easy to secure to drill collar with three bolts swing motion allows clear access of tools into the drill hole carrying handle Options: 5 decimeter sheave with magnetic encoding for interfacing to the EWC electronic wire counter. Suggested Uses: Borehole / drill hole cable payout distance measurement.
EWC-3M Electronic Wire Counter The EWC-3M wire counter is an up/down wire payout meter with both automatic and manual direction control functions. stand alone up/down cable measuring system optional RS-232 interface for computer logging function (NMEA format) 4 digit LCD, 0.5" size, 000.0 to 999.9 count indicator automatic and manual direction control function works with magnetic encoded metering wheel such as PS06 counter sheave (4 decimeter circumference sheave pictured below), or S&R aluminum snatch block (e.g. 0.8 m circumference sheave). Larger blocks are also available. housed in a watertight enclosure measuring 55 mm H x 160 mm L x 80 mm W Suggested Uses: Oceanographic applications, geophysics, etc. EWC-4A The EWC-4A wire counter is an up/down wire counter with both automatic and manual direction control functions and displays distance and speed. The electronics are mounted in a compact splash-resistant box. The length of cable out is displayed on line one of a two line LCD, with count to 5999.9 meters. Features include: display of payout speed RS232 computer interface (NMEA format) watertight enclosure when used with computer logging, a GPS input will also add accurate time standard for calibration of wire payout with borehole probe data
