IRTT
The Iron Roughneck Torque Tester (IRTT) is used for iron roughneck calibration that is engineered to emulate the specific geometric and material properties of your joints. This likeness allows the IRTT to measure the torque delivered by an Iron Roughneck in situ: the IRTT is placed within the jaws and is loaded just like a joint connection.
Since a direct torque measurement is captured by the IRTT (not derived or estimated), it removes additional calculations, correlations or guess work. The IRTT directly measures the make-up torque that is being delivered to your joint connections.
Measurements captured by the IRTT will allow an operator to adjust the Iron Roughneck set point to maximize the accuracy of the make-up torque delivered.
Benefits
- Calibrated as a complete system by the McCoy Global custom-engineered calibration test stand that is traceable to NIST
- Shunt calibration feature provides a reliable intermediate check against IRTT drift
- Machined from a solid piece of stainless steel to maximize symmetry and safety, minimize corrosion, and eliminate joint flexure/fatigue
- Wireless communication and Class 1, Division 2 safety rating permit operation on the rig floor
