AT THE COMPLETION OF THIS SECTION YOU
WILL BE ABLE TO :
 IDENTIFY COMPONENTS
 FOLLOW FLOW PATHS (SCHEMATICS)
 TROUBLESHOOTING

TOP DRIVE HYDRAULICS
 LINK TILT – Allows movement of bails 35% forward or

55% backwards from well center.
 LINK TILT FLOAT – Returns bails to a neutral position

under top drive.
 PIPE HANDLER LOCK – Locks the pipe handler frame to

the main frame.
 GRABBER LIFT – Moves the grabber leg up or down.
 ELEVATORS – For pipe handling capabilities.

 GRABBER – Clamps the drill string, for making or breaking
joints, and maintains tool face for directional drilling.
 MUDSAVER – Operates the mud saver valve open or close.
 EXTEND – Moves the top drive away from the torque track,
for extending over mouse hole or out to the “v” door, or
retracts it back to well center.
 COUNTER BALANCE – Works like a shock absorber,

compensates when making and breaking joints.
 UNLOADER – Dead ends the auxiliary hydraulic circuit to

produce pressure or directs oil back to tank when no
functions are used.

HYDRAULICS
ADVANTAGES OF USING HYDRAULICS
 FLEXIBILITY
Components can be located separately and connected with
hydraulic lines.
 MULTIPLICATION OF FORCES
Small forces can move large loads.
 COMPACTNESS
Hydraulics can handle more horsepower for its size than
mechanical or electric systems.
HYDRAULICS
DISADVANTAGES OF HYDRAULICS
 NEED FOR CLEANLINESS

Dust, dirt, rust, water, corrosion, air, heat will cause
damage to the hydraulic system.(Maintenance is more
critical).
 EFFICIENCY
Hydraulics are less efficient than mechanical. Or electrical.
 ENVIRONMENT
Hydraulic oil is a known contaminant. (Containment is
required).

HYDRAULICS
THERE ARE 2 TYPES OF BASIC HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS
OPEN LOOP SYSTEM

OPEN LOOP FLOW PATH IS FROM THE TANK--PUMP--ACTUATOR--BACK
TO THE TANK
CLOSED LOOP SYSTEM

CLOSED LOOP FLOW PATH IS FROM THE PUMP --MOTOR--BACK TO THE
PUMP.
THE AUXILIARY HYDRAULIC SYSTEM ON A TESCO TOP DRIVE

IS AN OPEN LOOP SYSTEM.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
CONTAMINATION
 HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS MUST BE KEPT AS CLEAN AS POSSIBLE

(EXTREMELY IMPORTANT IN CLOSED LOOP SYSTEMS BECAUSE OF
CLOSE TOLERANCES IN PISTON PUMPS & MOTORS), AND IN OPEN
LOOP SYSTEMS BECAUSE OF THE SMALL PASSAGES IN THE CONTROL
VALVES.
 CONTAMINATION MAY BE A SOLID,LIQUID,OR A GAS.
 THE HUMAN EYE CAN SEE PARTICLES 40 MICRON IN SIZE,PARTICLES

SMALLER THAN 40 MICRON DO THE MOST DAMAGE TO HYDRAULIC
SYSTEMS.
 KEEP YOUR SYSTEM CLEAN !!

HEAT GENERATION IN A
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
 HEAT IS GENERATED IN A HYDRAULIC SYSTEM WHENEVER OIL
DUMPS FROM A HIGHER PRESSURE TO A LOWER PRESSURE WITHOUT
PRODUCING A MECHANICAL WORK OUTPUT, e.g.
1. WHEN OIL FLOWS TO TANK THROUGH A RELIEF VALVE ,

2. OIL FLOWING THROUGH A PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE.
THE HIGHER THE PRESSURE DROP THE MORE HEAT IS

PRODUCED.
 PRESSURE DROPS FROM ONE CYLINDER PORT TO ANOTHER DO NOT

CREATE HEAT BECAUSE THE ENERGY IS CONVERTED TO WORK
OUTPUT.

TWO MAIN TERMS IN HYDRAULICS ARE:
1) PRESSURE: RESISTANCE TO FLOW

2) FLOW: MOVEMENT OF LIQUID
PRESSURE: PRESSURE RESULTS WHEN THERE IS A

RESISTANCE TO FLUID FLOW, OR TO A FORCE WHICH
ATTEMPTS TO MAKE FLUID FLOW. MEASURED IN (Pounds
/ Square Inch) (PSI)
FLOW: HOW MUCH OIL WILL MOVE PAST A GIVEN POINT

IN A GIVEN TIME. MEASURED IN (Gallons / Minute or
Liters / Minute)
