1.0 INTRODUCTION
The 5.12" 15K ES56 Pipe Slip Actuator is designed for coiled tubing and snubbing operations. The ES
is the lightest in the industry, yet retains all the field-proven designs you have come to expect from
Texas Oil Tools.
The compact size allows easier handling along with easier maintenance. All actuators feature power
hydraulic ram change, low bonnet bolt torque requirement, and a pressure balance piston. For shear
operations (no booster required).
Internally ported hydraulics (no external plumbing) eliminate the making and breaking of oil seals when
changing or servicing rams; thus removing the possibility of environmental pollution.
2.0 FEATURES
3.0 CERTIFICATION - Testing - All BOPs are hydrostatic and function tested per API 6A.
H2S Service - Materials in contact with pressured well fluids conform to NACE Specification MR-01-75
for H2S Service.
Arctic Service - In addition to the NACE Specifications above meets the API 6A with Charpy Impacts
at -50˚F.
North Sea Service - In addition to the NACE Specification s and API requirements additional Charpy
Impact and NDE are carried out. A Design Review and Certificate of Compliance by DNV, Lloyds, or
Bureau Veritas are furnished with the Data Book.

4.0 OPERATION
Ram Open and Close - Before opening the rams be sure the lock screws are backed fully out (turn
counter clockwise). If lock screws do not turn out easily after a closed and locked wellbore pressure
test apply 1,500 to 3,000 psi hydraulic pressure to the "CLOSE" hydraulic port to relieve the load from
the end of the tail rod.
To open the rams apply 1,500 psi hydraulic pressure to the body port marked "OPEN". Close the rams
by applying 1,500 to 3,000 psi hydraulic pressure to the body port marked "CLOSE".
To open the bonnets apply 500 to 1,500 psi hydraulic pressure to the body port marked "CLOSE" (ram
close). To close the bonnets apply 1,500 psi operating pressure to the body port marked "OPEN" (ram
open). After closing the bonnets maintain the 1,500 psi hydraulic pressure to keep the bonnet pulled
tightly against the body as the bonnet bolts are reinstalled.
Remove the bonnet bolts and open the bonnets as described above. Maintain hydraulic pressure until
the bonnets have fully retracted and the rams have fully extended making them accessible. Vent all
hydraulic pressure to zero to prevent personal injury in the event that the bonnet is closed prematurely
during the ram change procedure.
Remove the ram by lifting up and over the ram change rod. NOTE: Do not scratch ram change rods.
Front and rear seals may be replaced without fully removing the rams. Lift the ram up until it clears the
ram guide rod and rotate slightly to gain access to the front seal.
Normal wear will be a moderate amount of extrusion downstream of the pressured side.
Replace the ram seals when usage has resulted in any noticeable loss of rubber. Field testing only to
the maximum anticipated well pressure will extend the life of the seals.
Inspect Bonnet Seal - For scratches and deformation, inspect o-rings and o-ring grooves.
Check the teeth of the slip inserts. If the slip teeth are blunt or dulled then the gripping action of the
ram may be impaired and therefore the slips should be discarded.
Always store and operate the BOP with the equalizing valve closed.
After 20 Jobs or 12 Months Maximum - Completely disassemble the equalizing valve, replace all
seals and worn parts.
Completely disassemble and inspect the bonnet assemblies. Replace all seals and worn parts.
Inspect all threads, connections, bushings and fittings. Replace and repair as required.

Disassembly - Open the bonnets. See bonnet open and close, section 4; vent all hydraulic pressure
to zero. Remove the rams and remove set screw (22), rod head (14) and guide (13). Remove the
bonnet seal (1-11). Remove nut (10) and handwheel (24) from the lock screw (25). Remove socket
head cap screws (20) and remove caplock screw (26). Remove SHCS (17 & 18)
Remove end cap (5). Use caution not to drop indicator rod (15). Remove O-rings (1-2) and (1-4).
Remove retainer ring (1-9), seal (1-8), and retainer (3). Remove and inspect lock screw (25).
Remove change cylinders (9) and main cylinder (6) from bonnet (4). Remove seal retainer (21) and
seal (1-7). Remove piston (12) and T-seal (1-5) from bonnet (4). NOTE: Do not remove piston from
rod.
Support weight of bonnet (4) and remove ram change rod (7) and (8) from body with Allen wrench.
NOTE: Do not scratch surfaces of ram change rods. Note specific location of change rods as they
have differing thread sizes. Remove O-rings (1-1) from body.
Remove T-seals (1-6) from ram change rods (7) and (8). Remove O-rings (1-2) and (1-4). Remove
retainer ring (1-9), seals (1-8) and retainers (3) from bonnet (4). Remove bushings (2) and seals (1-
8) from bonnet (4). Remove O-rings (1-1) from body. Clean and inspect all parts for wear before
reassembly.
