What Is Mud Weight?

Mud pycnometer is used to measure the weight of mud in wellsite or laboratory, the unit is g / cm3. This type of mud specific gravity meter is an unequal-arm balance. Its lever knife rests on a seat that can be fixedly installed on the worktable. The left side of the lever is a scaled code device. The mobile code can be read directly on the scale Out of mud weight. The balance of the lever can be indicated by the horizontal bubble at the top of the lever.

The composition, properties and applications of aluminate cement, and other cements.

The Mud Hydrometer

1. The personnel who use the equipment for the first time must operate under the guidance of skilled personnel, and can operate independently after being proficient.

2. When using the device, read the technical manual carefully, be familiar with the technical indicators, working performance, use methods, and precautions, and strictly follow the procedures specified in the instrument's manual.

3. The instruments and equipment used in the experiment should be reasonably arranged and neatly arranged for easy operation, observation and recording.

Mud pycnometer is used to measure the weight of mud in wellsite or laboratory, the unit is g / cm3. The mud specific gravity meter

1. Measuring range: 0.96 3g / cm3;

2. Measurement accuracy: 0.01g / cm3;

3.Mud cup capacity: 140cm3;

4. Instrument size: 500 (length) x 100 (width) x 100 mm (height) mm.

Check the accuracy of the instrument. Fill the mud cup with distilled water and use the same force method to measure the specific gravity. If the specific gravity is 1, it indicates that the hydrometer is accurate. If the measured result is not 1, the balance cylinder cap of the mud hydrometer can be unscrewed to increase or decrease the metal particles in the cylinder to make the measured specific gravity to be 1.

1. The mud must be poured into the mud cup, flush the mouth of the cup with no air bubbles, and cover the lid gently. The excess mud and air will be discharged from the small hole in the middle of the lid, and then the spilled mud will be cleaned. .

2. Then put the main knife edge of the lever on the main knife pad of the base, and slowly move the weight. When the blisters are located in the center, the lever is horizontal. The scale shown on the left side of the weight is the specific gravity of the mud.

3. If the specific gravity of the mud needs to be measured in the range of 2-3 g / cm3, the balance cylinder cover needs to be unscrewed, and then the balance weight is put in, and the screw cap can be measured. (Measurement methods and procedures are the same as above) After use, the instrument should be washed and brushed clean.

1. The scale of the hydrometer adopts the corrosion process, and the scale is clear, fine and cannot be worn away. Most of the similar products on the market use the printing process, and the scale will fall off with a single stroke of the key, and the scale is more blurred after repeated use.
2. High-precision level bubble, high sensitivity, in line with standard specifications; similar products on the market mostly use ordinary level bubble, low sensitivity, can not meet the verification requirements.
3 The test cup, balance tube, and bracket base adopt a new bakelite design, with a high appearance finish, stable dimensions, and durability. The test cup capacity is 140 cm3, with small errors and high accuracy. Similar products on the market mostly use plastic design, and the surface is not shiny. The interior is rough, it is easy to deform after long time use, and the design capacity of the measuring cup is not accurate, the error is greater than 1g, and some even reach 20g.
4 Hydrometer body screws and nuts are made of stainless steel, bright and durable, and do not rust for long-term use; similar products on the market mostly use galvanized screws and nuts, which have a poor effect.
5. The specific gravity meter has been verified and calibrated by the measurement departments at all levels, and the measurement error is within the nationally prescribed range. Most of the similar products on the market can reach equilibrium when testing clean water, but other materials have large errors.
