Hydraulic Retriever
DOUBLE ACTING, 420 BAR (6090
System Description
CorrOcean’s Hydraulic Retriever system
is used to insert or remove probes or
coupons from access fittings on process
system pipes, and can be used under full
operational pressure. Its patented
hydraulic operation allows higher safety
at half the size and weight of traditional
mechanical tools.
The hydraulic operation means no
externally moving parts, making it safer in
use than mechanical tools.
The Hydraulic Access System has no
threads inside the access fitting, the plug
is kept in position by locking pins and a
heavy duty cover. This feature eliminates
thread damage and galling problems (e.g.
seized plugs) frequently encountered
when using mechanical systems.
Can be used on existing, traditional
2" access fitting systems by means of a
Hydraulic Access Fitting Adaptor (see
data sheet no. 105).

System Benefits
• No external moving parts
• Safer for operators - reduced risk for
accidents and injuries
• Designed for full line pressure
• Standard version up to 420 bar
(6090 psi), versions up to 690 bar
(10.000 psi) available
• No internal threads - no galling, no
seized probes or coupons
• Smaller and lighter - easier to use
than conventional mechanical
systems
• Smaller size allows access at more
locations
• More environmentally friendly - less
than half the discharge of traditional
systems
• Improved safety in sour service
