RODEC AUTO-LIFT ROD LIFTER

The RODECTM Auto-LiftTM Rod Lifter from R&M Energy

Systems is a portable hand tool that raises the sucker rod
string on down- hole PC pump systems. Its proprietary lift
system does not require the use of additional tools or
equipment. It uses the power of the pump drive to raise the
entire rod string, enabling the operator to reposition rod
couplings or the pump rotor promptly without lost production
time. Once the procedure is complete, the Auto-Lift Rod Lifter
can be transferred to other wells for further rod string
adjustments.

Portable Hand Tool Raises Entire

Rod String
The RODEC Auto-Lift Rod Lifter provides a greater degree of
control over well performance by allowing operators to
quickly reposition rod strings anytime the need arises. It
eliminates
the downtime and expense associated with hiring a flush-
by rig or cherry picker to lift the rods.

Simple Operation
1. Down-hole PC pump drive is turned off
2. RODEC Auto-Lift Rod Lifter fits over the polished
rod extension and rests on the drive clamp
3. Tighten lifter clamp and loosen drive clamp
4. Turn PC pump drive on so Auto-Lift Rod Lifter
can automatically raise rod string the desired
amount
5. Pump drive is turned off, the drive clamp is tightened
and the Auto-Lift Rod Lifter and its clamp are removed
6. Down-hole PC pump system returns to operation

• Save service rig costs

• Raise rod strings on demand
• Reduce wear concentrations
in production tubing
• Reset improperly positioned down-hole
PC pump rotors immediately

Vital for a Turnkey Solution

Applied periodically in combination with a RODECTM
Tubing Rotator and New Era® and Patco® Rod Guides, the 1
Auto-Lift Rod Lifter will reduce the hassle and expense

associated with holed production tubing. Continuous use of a 4
Tubing Rotator spreads wear around the entire inner
circumference of
the tubing greatly extending its performance life. With
supplemental lifting from a Rod Lifter, the rod couplings
and shear coupling are moved vertically to new locations
to further increase tubing life.

and ground cover, particularly during the spring break-up
and rainy weather.
