Product Code: C014
Category: CEMENT
Sub-Category: MUD VISCOSITY
- The Mud Balance is a precision instrument designed to determine the density (weight per unit volume) of drilling fluids, cement slurries, and other similar fluids, ensuring accurate measurements in both laboratory and field settings.
- Constructed with a constant-volume sample cup and a graduated beam, the apparatus allows for direct reading of fluid density in multiple units, including pounds per gallon (lb/gal), specific gravity (g/cm³), pounds per cubic foot (lb/ft³), and pressure gradient (psi/1000 ft).
- The device features a built-in spirit level and a knife-edge fulcrum to ensure precise balancing during measurements, enhancing the reliability of results.
- A durable, high-impact plastic carrying case is included, providing a secure base for the balance during use and protecting the instrument during transportation.
- The Mud Balance is essential for monitoring and controlling the density of drilling fluids, which is critical for maintaining wellbore stability and preventing formation damage during drilling operations.
