Abstract

An oil well pump system includes a programmable control module configured to be coupled to a fuel injector coupled to a prime mover engine. The programmable control module is configured to cause the fuel injector and engine to operate in a 350-500 RPM range. A generator is configured to be coupled to the engine, the generator is configured to operate in a 350-500 RPM range and configured to be coupled to the programmable control module and the fuel injector and configured to supply sufficient power to operate the programmable control module and the fuel injector.

Claims (29)

1 . An oil well pump system comprising:

a programmable control module configured to be coupled to a fuel injector coupled to a prime mover engine, the programmable control module configured to cause the fuel injector and prime mover engine to operate in a 350-500 RPM range; and

a generator configured to be coupled to the prime mover engine, the generator configured to operate in a 350-500 RPM range and configured to be coupled to the programmable control module and the fuel injector and configured to supply sufficient power to operate the programmable control module and the fuel injector.

2 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the prime mover engine is a natural gas engine.

3 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the generator is configured to be coupled to a stub shaft coupled to the prime mover engine.

4 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the generator comprises a planetary gear system.

5 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the generator comprises a stator being sized between 10 inches and 12 inches.

6 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the generator comprises an enclosure meeting NEMA 4x requirements.

7 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the generator generates 3 phase a/c current.

8 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the generator generates a minimum of 400 watts and 30 volts at 350 rpm.

9 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the generator operates between temperatures of −40° to +50° C.

10 . The oil well pump system of claim 1 , wherein the generator is configured to operate as a starter motor for the prime mover engine.

11 . A programmable control module operational system comprising:
