Electric powered hydraulic fracturing pump system with single electric powered multi-plunger pump fracturing trailers, filtration units, and slide out platform
A hydraulic fracturing system for fracturing a subterranean formation includes a support structure that includes an electric powered pump, arranged in a first area, the electric powered pump powered by at least one electric motor, also arranged in the first area. The system further includes a variable frequency drive (VFD), arranged in a second area proximate the first area, connected to the at least one electric motor to control the speed of the at least one electric motor. The system includes a transformer, arranged in a third area proximate the second area. The system also includes a slide out platform integrated into the first area, the slide out platform being driven between a retracted position and a deployed position.
1. An electrically driven slide out platform coupled to a trailer of a hydraulic fracturing system, comprising:
an actuator for driving movement of the slide out platform between a retracted position and a deployed position;
at least one guide rail coupled to the platform and extending perpendicular to an axis of the trailer, the at least one guide rail being coupled to at least a portion of a pump platform; and
at least two wheels engaging the at least one guide rail, wherein at least one wheel of the at least two wheels is a vertical wheel and at least one wheel of the at least two wheels is a horizontal wheel.
2. The electrically driven slide out platform of claim 1 , wherein the actuator is powered by a DC motor, the DC motor being powered by a battery.
3. The electrically driven slide out platform of claim 1 , further comprising:
a handrail, arranged along a length of the slide out platform;
a retention rail, the retention rail being rotatable about an axis; and
a ladder.
4. The electrically driven slide out platform of claim 1 , further comprising:
brackets supporting the at least one guide rail.
