How is the remote fire gas gun lubricated?
The remote fire gas gun has a 12 volt solenoid valve which actuates and opens a small nylon dart valve. When the small dart valve is open or leaking, gas is released from the small 1/8″ hole located beside the pressure gauge. When gas is bled from this opening, the 1/2″ gas valve opens and gas is released from the gas gun volume chamber through a 3/8″ orifice into the well. The 1/2″ gas valve contains two o-rings which must be lubricated. One o-ring is on the 1/2″ outer diameter of the gas valve, and the other o-ring seals into the 3/8″ orifice. The 1/2″ gas valve and two o-rings can be lubricated using the following procedure. First, charge the remote fire gas gun to approximately 200 PSI. Use the Well Analyzer to fire the gas gun. It should create a distinct sharp pulse. When the remote fire gas gun is fired, the 1/2″ gas valve is pushed back by gas pressure away from the 3/8″ orifice which is sealed by the 1/2″ gas valve. If the threaded end of the remote fire gas gun is held upward
