Product catalog summary
Summary: The Marsh Funnel Viscometer is a device used to measure the viscosity of drilling fluids, adhering to API standards. It is widely used in petroleum and geological exploration due to its simplicity and convenience.
Model and Specification: The viscometer comes in three models: MLN-2, MLN-3, and MLN-4, each with different sample cup configurations. The main technical parameters include a screen size of 1.6mm and a fluid volume capacity of 1500ml below the funnel screen. The accuracy is defined by the time it takes for 946ml of water to flow out, which should be 26±0.5 seconds.
Structure and Working Principle: The apparatus consists of a flowing tube, funnel body, handle, 12mesh screen, and a plastic sample cup. The operation involves blocking the funnel outlet, pouring the fluid, and timing the flow to a specific volume.
Operation and Calibration: The operation involves measuring the time for a fluid to flow to a specific volume mark. Calibration requires adjusting the temperature to 20±2°C and ensuring the flow time matches the standard. All equipment must be cleaned before use.
Maintenance: The apparatus should be kept away from high temperatures and cleaned after use. The environmental temperature should be maintained at 20±2°C during tests.
Transportation and Storage: The instrument should be stored in a ventilated area free from corrosive impurities, following JB/T9329-1999 standards.
Fault Diagnosis and Resolution: Common issues include flow rate deviations due to tube abrasion or blockage, which can be resolved by replacing or cleaning the tube.
Accessories and Documentation: The package includes plastic and stainless-steel sample cups, a stopwatch, and technical documents such as an operation manual and certificate of approval.
