Abstract:
The current invention includes manifold having multiple outputs and at least one input for lubricant to be pumped at high pressure from a skid or trailer to a particular frac valve when the valve requires lubrication. Generally such frac valves require lubrication on an hourly schedule or less. Each output port on the manifold is fitted with an on/off valve that allows remote operation such as pneumatic, hydraulic, electro-pneumatic operation, or other known remote operation system. The pump or pumps are also configured for remote operation. A controller is then provided so that each circuit allows, upon command, lubricant to be pumped from the lubricant reservoir, through the pump, to the manifold, through each remotely operable valve, via each output port, through an appropriate rated hose, then to the lubrication or other port on each frac valve. Generally, once connected each frac valve remains connected to the system to allow the operator to cause lubricant to flow to each valve upon command. The controller may also provide a safety cutout so that the system will only provide pressurized lubricant with the controller in the operator's possession while the operator continuously actuates the appropriate switch.

Claim (Index 4):
The method of lubricating at least two frac valves of  claim 2  wherein, the controller allows activation of the remotely operable first valve and the remotely operable second valve only when the pump is activated.
