Pressurized fluid scale RPMB-31

The volume of space occupied by entrapped gas or air bubbles in a sample fluid may distort the accuracy of the fluid density measurement. This distortion can be significantly reduced by pressurizing the fluid. The density of a fluid containing entrained air or gas can be determined more accurately by using a pressurized fluid density balance. If gas or air bubbles are present in the drilling fluid, the volume occupied by the entrapped gas bubbles may distort the accuracy of the fluid density measurement. This distortion can be significantly reduced by pressurizing the fixed volume of the fluid in the cup, thereby preventing the gas from expanding. The density of a fluid containing entrained air or gas can be determined more accurately by using a pressurized fluid density balance. The pressurized fluid density balance is similar in operation to the conventional mud balance, the difference being that the slurry sample can be placed in the fixed volume cup under pressure. The Convertible Pressurized Density Balance is a precise, self-contained measuring device used to accurately determine the densities of drilling fluids, cement slurries and similar materials under pressure. This unique instrument can be used as a conventional (non-pressurized) fluid balance or as a pressurized instrument when required. The conversion from one mode to the other is simple and requires only a few moments to complete. RIGCHINA’s Pressurized Mud Balance id built to traditional RIGCHINA standards. It can withstand the rigors of field use as well as perform consistently and accurately.
