Abstract

An actuator assembly of a downhole tool may include a high pressure chamber and a low pressure chamber. A pressure applied from the surface to the tool may enter both chambers. The low pressure chamber may include an inlet that restricts the flow of pressure and prevents the pressure within the low pressure chamber from increasing quickly. The high pressure chamber may also include an inlet that restricts the flow of pressure to prevent the pressure within the high pressure chamber from increasing quickly. The inlet of the high pressure chamber may also include a check valve that prevents pressure from bleeding off from the high pressure chamber through the check valve. The pressure within the high pressure chamber may actuate a piston to actuate the tool in response to the pressure applied from the surface falling within a predetermined pressure and time range.
