Author: E. Khvoshchev, K. OPEL Date: 18 AUG 09
1 N2 EIM Overview
The Equipment Interface Module (EIM) was designed as a master CAN bus device for the Schlumberger
CoilCAT data acquisition system but it will also function as N2 EIM on a nitrogen pump when configured
for N2 mode. This document describes the procedure for installing and configuring the EIM as N2 EIM on
a nitrogen pump unit.
N2 EIM performs the following functions:
• Serves as operator’s monitor panel to displays main working parameters of an N2 pump. It monitors
N2 flow rate based on the pump speed, N2 total volume, N2 pressure, and N2 temperature.
• Serves as a safety device that shuts the pump down when a pre-set N2 discharge pressure limit is
exceeded (overpressure shutdown feature).
• Transfers the monitored parameters to CoilCAT acquisition system via SDS/CAN bus.
1.1 Parameters monitored and units of measure:

3.2 Electrical Installation:

1. Prepare suitable cabling as per wiring schematic shown in Appendix B and thread them in the
cable glands.
Note: If the N2 EIM is being installed on unit rated for use in a Zone 2 hazardous area then use cable
glands and connectors that are approved for use in Zone 2 and appropriate for the cable used.
2. Connect wires according to the wiring schematic and the wiring assignment tables below.
The actual sensor wiring connection may vary from unit to unit depending on the kind of sensor
used to sense N2 pump speed.
Appendix B contains N2 EIM wiring schematics for the following:
1) Rev L and above EIM Boards used with a NPN type proximity switch rate sensor.
2) Rev L and above EIM Boards used with a PNP type proximity switch rate sensor.
3) Rev a through j EIM Boards used with a NPN type proximity switch rate sensor.
Note: Older installations using Rev L and above EIM boards must rewire the proximity sensor to
match the wiring as in 1 or 2 above and update the firmware to 3.14x or higher.
WARNING: If the EIM has a wire installed between terminals J1-9 and J15-1 (See Appendix B
wiring Schematic) then this wire MUST be removed when used as a N2 EIM. Failure to remove
this wire can cause damage beyond repair.
A proximity switch is usually used to sense N2 pump speed. There are three basic types of
proximity sensors that can be used with the N2 EIM:
1. Three wire PNP proximity sensor.
2. Three wire NPN proximity sensor.
3. Two wire proximity sensor.
The three wire NPN and Two wire type proximity sensors require a 5k ohm pull up resistor to be
installed as shown in Appendix B (section 8.1)
If a magnetic pickup is used, its signal needs to be routed through an additional signal
amplifier/conditioner with the square wave output (12V peak-to-peak recommended).
3. Reconnect the keypad.
4. Reconnect and mount the LCD screen.

3.3 Firmware Installation:

The EIM firmware version 3.14x or later is required in order to have full functionality of the N2 EIM.
The latest version of firmware and installation instructions are available from InTouch Content
4228603. The N2 EIM firmware and the EIM firmware are the same.
After the EIM firmware is updated, the EIM mode needs to be changed to N2 mode. (See section 4.2)
4 N2 EIM Setup
4.1 Initial power up
Power up the N2 EIM and observe the LCD screen for the firmware version number while it boots up. In
order for N2 EIM to operate properly, it requires firmware version “3.14x” or later.
Update the firmware if necessary. Refer to Appendix C for the firmware update procedure.
If the EIM boots in a mode other than N2, first change the operating mode to N2.
If the EIM boots in the N2 mode, the following parameters will be displayed on the screen: N2 Volume, N2
Rate, N2 Pressure and N2 Temperature. The Backlight may start blinking on and off about once a second.
This is a warning that the N2 Pressure limit has been exceeded. To stop the backlight from blinking, the
pressure limit must be entered then the overpressure limit can be reset as described in section 4.3.8
below.
4.2 Changing to N2 Mode

1. Without CCAT connected, from the Home Screen press F6, F4 then enter 5 to select the N2 Mode.
Press Menu [F6] > Mode [F4]

The following prompt is displayed:
(0=EIM 1=CCAT 2=CTX 3=OPC 4=ANSI 5=N2 7=PUMP)
The Mode selection prompts for verification or selection of a mode change for the EIM.
2. Press “5”, and then press “ENTER” to confirm the N2 mode. After the mode number is entered the
N2 EIM must be power cycled.

In order to reset the overpressure shutdown, the pressure reading has to be less than 95% of the
overpressure limit.
5 N2 EIM Operation with a Coiled Tubing Unit

5.1 Communication with CoilCAT
Once N2 EIM is connected to the sensor bus via CAN bus cable, powered up, and CoilCAT system
is up and running, the N2 EIM will be recognized as a SIM by the CoilCAT EIM.
Note: When connected to the CoilCAT system for the first time, the CoilCAT EIM might not see the
N2 EIM as a SIM. This problem will be resolved when the CoilCAT program communicates with
the EIM.

N2 EIM Manual
Revision: AD
Once CoilCAT program is started and connected to the EIM, and Acquisition is ON, CoilCAT
software will start receiving data from the N2 EIM. This can be verified by looking at the EIM
mapping tab.
A separate N2 EIM tab will appear in the EIM Sensor Setup window as shown on Fig. 12.
The N2 EIM cannot be programmed from CoilCAT program like the UniSIM except for changing
the name. The rest should be programmed from N2 EIM front panel.
Figure 5-3 N2 Tab in Sensor Set up window
6 N2 EIM Operation without a Coiled Tubing Unit

The N2 EIM can be used without a coiled tubing acquisition system. Since the CAN bus will not be
available, the EIM can be connected directly to the serial port of the CoilCAT PC with a RS-232
cable.

N2 EIM Manual
Revision: AD
The N2 EIM will start sending the following data to its COM port using Datascribe protocol as soon
as it is powered up: N2 Rate1, N2 Discharge Volume, N2 Pressure, and N2 Discharge
Temperature. The values and the units will exactly correspond to ones on the N2 EIM screen.
The data can be displayed and recorded using either CoilCAT or CemCAT software.
6.1 N2 EIM DataScribe Setup
6.1.1 Datascribe to CoilCAT software

Use the following procedure to use Datascribe with CoilCAT software:

9.1 Calculating Rate K factor

Where:
• 93.12 Standard cubic feet per gallon of nitrogen
• Plunger Diameter in inches
• Stroke length in inches
• Pump containing three cylinders
• 90% volumetric efficiency
• Pulses taken at pump shaft.
To calculate standard cubic feet per revolution for a triplex nitrogen pump:
2
SCF/Rev. = (Plunger diameter) x (Stroke Length) x .85484
To calculate K factor (Kf) for the N2 EIM in SCF per pulse for a triplex nitrogen pump:
SCF per Rev.

Kf =
Number of poles per Rev.
Enter the calculated Kf into the N2 Rate K factor menu in Section 4.3.3
9.2 Calculating N2 Pressure Offset

The Offset is the value that adjusts the zero value for nitrogen pressure.
To calculate the Pressure Offset for a 4-20 mA sensor, use the following equation:
Offset = - Pmax / 4
Where: Pmax is the maximum pressure that corresponds to 20mA signal.
Example: For 0-15000 psi 4-20 mA pressure transducer Offset = - (15000 / 4) = - 3750.

N2 EIM Manual
Revision: AD
9.3 Calculating N2 Pressure K factor

To calculate the Pressure Kf, use the following equation:
Kf = (Pmax - offset) * 1.03046 / 65535
Where: Pmax is the maximum pressure that corresponds to the 20mA signal.
1.03046 is a correction factor for the EIM A/D converter.
65535 is a decimal equivalent of maximum digital output value of a 16-bit A/D converter.
Example: For 0-15000 psi 4-20 mA pressure transducer, Kf = (15000 + 3750)*1.03046/65535 =0.29482
9.4 N2 Temperature Offset

TemperatureOffset is the temperature reading that corresponds to a 0 mA signal.
o o
For a 0-300 F 4-20 mA temperature transducer, the offset is -75 F. This can be determined from the
transducer data sheet.
9.5 Calculating N2 Temperature K factor

To calculate the Temperature Kf, use the following equation:
Temperature Kf = (Tmax - offset)*1.03046/65535
Where: Tmax is the temperature that corresponds to 20mA Temperature sensor signal.
1.03046 is a correction factor of an A/D converter
65535 is a decimal equivalent of maximum digital output value of a 16-bit A/D converter
o
Example: For a 0-300 F 4-20 mA temperature transducer, Kf = (300 + 75) * 1.03046/65535 = 0.00590
