GEODynamics’ EPIC™ Switches offer the industry’s only digital switches capable of being field configurable to rapid firing mode, allowing them to function more like a pressure switch while preserving the safety and intelligence of an addressable system.

 

EPIC™ Switch with Flying Leads—The five (5) wired switch facilitates compatibility with standard pass-through bulkheads and non-ported subs, offering unparalleled flexibility.

 

On surface, the EPIC™ Test box is used to inventory the perforating string. The inventory process is repeatable while running in hole as a verification of viable switches.
