Slurry Mud Test Kits (Hydrometer,Sand Content Meter, Viscometer)

 Slurry Mud Test Kits

The Slurry Test Kit is a field portable kit designed for measuring the properties of slurries formulated in the field. This kit allows laboratory quality measurements of viscosity, specific gravity/density, and sand content.
All testing instruments are contained in a carrying case. The case is durable, compact, and provides convenient storage.

Mud hydrometer is used to measure the well field or laboratory mud weight, unit g / mm³

[How to use mud hydrometer]
Adjust the balance first, fill the mud cup with water, move the weight to the red 1-2, and the air bubbles in the middle.
Specific operation:
1. The mud must be poured into the mud cup, flush with the mouth of the cup, without leaving any air bubbles, cover the cup cover lightly, the excess mud and air will be discharged from the small hole in the middle of the cup cover, and then wipe the overflowing mud clean .
2. Then put the main knife edge of the lever on the main knife pad of the base, and move the weight slowly. When the bubble is in the center, the lever is in a horizontal state, and the scale on the left side of the weight is the specific gravity of the mud.
3. If you need to measure the specific gravity of the mud in the range of 2-3 g/cm3, you need to unscrew the balance cylinder cover, then put the balance weight in, and screw on the threaded cover to measure. (The measurement method and steps are the same as above) The instrument should be rinsed and wiped clean after use.

 Slurry sand content Technical parameters

[How to use the sand content ]
1. Fill the mud to the engraved place marked with “mud” on the test tube, add water to the engraved line with “water”, block the mouth of the pipe and shake it;
2. Pour the mixture into the filter cartridge, throw the liquid that has passed through the filter screen, add clean water into the measuring tube, shake it and then pour it into the filter cartridge, repeat until the measuring tube is clean;
3. Rinse the sand on the screen with clean water to remove the residual mud;
4. Put the funnel into the filter cartridge, then turn it over slowly, and insert the funnel into the measuring tube. Use clean water to flush all the sand attached to the screen into the pipe;
5. After the sand settles, read the percentage of the sand;
6. Clean and dry the instrument, put it in the box. Main technical parameters: structure and technical data The mud sand content meter is composed of a filter cartridge with a 200-mesh screen, a funnel with a corresponding diameter of the filter cartridge and a glass measuring tube with a scale of 0-100%. Scale on the measuring tube: below 15%, each small division is 0.5%, between 15% and 30%, each small division is 1%.

 Mud Slurry Viscometer Technical Specifications

[How to use mud viscometer]
Before measuring the viscosity, first clean the mud viscometer with water, then stir the mud for 1 minute in the mud mixer for testing, and pour 500 and 200 ml (700 ml) of mud into the viscometer through the sieve in the measuring cup, and its flow Block the outlet with your finger to prevent it from flowing out. When measuring, place a 500ml measuring cup under the outlet. When you release the finger blocking the outlet, start the stop watch at the same time. When the mud flows to the 500ml measuring cup and reaches its edge , and then press the stop watch to record the time when the mud flows out, which is the viscosity of the mud. If the mud is not fully stirred in the mixer according to the above method before measuring the viscosity, the mud should be poured from the measuring cup into the viscometer again. , repeat the measurement until the outflow time is no longer reduced. It is more convenient to hang the mud viscometer on the wall for the test, so that only one person can operate it. After the measurement, the viscometer, screen and measuring cup must be rinsed with water. Mud The viscometer should often use clean water to measure the outflow time, which is called the “water value” of the viscometer. If the water value is greater than 15 seconds, it means that the outflow pipe has not been rinsed clean. Use a soft brush, cloth strip, etc. to wash the pipe. If it is less than 5 seconds, it cannot be used. The normal water value is 15±0.5 seconds.
