mSafe2
Safety Valve Control System
Designed for SSV / ESD Applications
Improve performance with electric-over-hydraulic emergency shutdown control that enables condition-based monitoring and maintenance.
The mSafe2 Safety Valve Control System enables you to independently operate two single-acting hydraulic valves from a single panel economically , while maintaining enhanced well safety, increased operational efficiency, reduced maintenance costs and production maximization.
Features include:
- Open, close, and monitor hydraulically actuated safety valves -- remotely, automatically or at the wellsite.
• Condition based monitoring and maintenance are carried out via SCADA or MODBUS RS485 Protocol for complete operational visibility from wherever.
Electronically-Assisted Hydraulic Control
The mSafe2 integrates electronic control and an electro-hydraulic pump to ensure the safety and performance of hydraulically actuated safety valves used in emergency shutdown applications (ESD). The controller precisely and reliably manages valve position while monitoring and maintaining hydraulic pressure in the actuator and actuator lines. The acquired data supports condition-based monitoring and maintenance, which significantly improve safety and performance. Real-time and historical valve data is transferred via SCADA system.
The low power, battery-operated control system is easily charged using wellsite power or solar panels on remote wellsites1.

Partial Stroke Test
Monitoring & SCADA Control
The mSafe2 integrates electronic control and an electro-hydraulic pump to ensure the safety and performance of hydraulically actuated safety valves used in emergency shutdown applications (ESD). The controller precisely and reliably manages valve position while monitoring and maintaining hydraulic pressure in the actuator and actuator lines. The acquired data supports condition-based monitoring and maintenance practices that can significantly improve safety and performance. Real-time and historical valve data is transferred using the wellsite SCADA system. The low power, battery-operated control system is easily charged using wellsite power or solar panels on remote wellsites²
Conditioned-Based Monitoring
The mSafe2 acquires and communicates precise data on even small changes in hydraulic pressure, supporting condition-based monitoring and maintenance in many ways including:
Predictive maintenance is enabled by early detection of small operational anomalies. Partial stroke test provides diagnostics of potential valve failure without stopping production and with zero emissions. Maintenance is reduced and production delays are minimized.
Management by exception and the identification of best practices benefit from mSafe2 data acquisition and identification of deviations.
Pressure stabilization eliminates progressive valve closure and associated wear with mSafe2 monitoring and automatically compensates for temperature-induced variations.
Line break detection identifies gradual losses in absolute pressure over time. Deviation from the pressure gradient prompts a mSafe2 programmable alarm or valve closure.
