Sx7720 Portable Hpht Consistometer Hpht Benchtop Consistometer

1,Introduction
    The Portable HPHT consistometer is used to determine the length of time a given cement slurry remains in a fluid state at a desired temperature and pressure. This data is then used to compare various cements. The tests performed are known as Thickening Time Tests.
    Complete details of the procedure are contained in API Spec 10 titled Materials and Testing for Well Cements.
    Cement slurry is placed in the consistometer, pressure and temperature are increased according to the API schedules, or the specific schedules desired by the user, and the consistency of the slurry is recorded as a function of time. An automatic shut-down feature cools the instrument, and shuts down the heater and motor upon completion of the test.

Description:
The High-Pressure, High-Temperature (HPHT) Consistometer measures cement slurry viscosity or consistency under elevated pressure and temperature conditions.
 Its primary function is to determine the maximum available pumping time of a cement slurry before the slurry reaches an un-pumpable consistency before setting. While designed for cement slurries, the effects of pressure, time and temperature can also be observed for other fluids, emulsions, dispersions, or slurries under static or dynamic conditions.

Basic Features:
Temperature up to 400ºF (204ºC)
Pressure to 20,000 psig (138 MPa)
Slurry cup rotation - 150 RPM per API specifications
Metal-to-Metal pressure chamber closure - ease of operation, less maintenance
Pressure chamber cooling coils - fast cool-down, quick cleanup
Ceramic-insulated electrical connections through pressure chamber
