Model E-4 Wireline Pressure Setting Assembly
and Baker Firing Heads
Product Family Nos. H43702, H43720 and H43721

Introduction
The Model E-4 Wireline Pressure Setting As-
sembly (W.L.P.S.A.) is a device in which the prod-
ucts of combustion are utilized for the gradual
development of force through pressure. This mo-
tive force operates the various working parts of the
W.L.P.S.A. in a proper sequence to ensure the
successful setting of Baker Oil Tools Bridge Plugs,
Retainer Production Packers, Cement Retainers,
and other products.
The pressure required is built up through the
burning of a Slow Set Power Charge, Product
Family No. H43766, or a Standard Power Charge,
Product Family No. H43764, which was originally
known as a High Temperature Power Charge. For
specifics on all Power Charges and Igniters refer to
Tech Unit 4190. The setting pressure is confined to
the proper area of the setting tool through the use
of O-ring Seals. It is of extreme importance that all
O-rings be maintained in perfect condition and re-
placed after each use.
The Model E-4 Wireline Pressure Setting As-
sembly incorporates a Piercing Disk bleeder sys-
tem to provide a safe, easy method of bleeding off
trapped pressure before disassembling the
W.L.P.S.A. after it has been run. The new Piercing
Disk bleeder system can be run in the heavy duty
W.L.P.S.A. replacing the Manual Bleeder Valve
Connector less Bleeder Valve on the Size 10 and
Pressure Chamber less Bleeder Valve on the Size
20 W.L.P.S.A.
The Manual Bleeder Valve for size 05, 10 and
20 is obsolete. It has been replaced by the Piercing
Disk bleeder system.

devices should be tested before attempting to set with the Model E-4 W.L.P.S.A.

NOTE: It is imperative that the specification guides for the various tools set with the Model E-4 W.L.P.S.A. be
followed strictly in regard to the size Model E-4 W.L.P.S.A. used to set the various sizes of the tools.
