  • Page 7 [Table 8.2, API Spec 10(1)]. Test Procedure Briefly, the test procedure for the Model 7025C10 Pressurized Consistometer entails the preparation of the slurry sample, placing it in the Consistometer, applying pressure and increasing temperature according to the API Spec 10 Code Schedule(1), and recording the consistency of the slurry as a function of time.
  • Page 8 PREFACE The slurry container is rotated at a constant speed of 150 +/- 15 rpm by a Magnetic Drive (Drawing 8-229). Drive torque is transmitted from a set of outside drive magnets, through a non- magnetic housing, to permanent magnets attached to the rotating shaft within the cylinder. Permanent, rare earth magnets are used to ensure high torque and a long magnetic-field life.
  • Page 9 PREFACE Specifications This unit is in complete compliance with API Spec 10A Model 7025C10 Maximum Temperature: 400°F (200°C) Maximum Pressures: 25,000 psi (170 MPa) Heater Power: 4,000 Watts Slurry Cup Rotational Speed: 150 rpm Viscosity Range: 0-100 Bc (Bearden Units)

  • Page 11 SECTION 1 – INSTALLATION Section 1 - Installation Unpacking the Instrument After the consistometer is unpacked, the operating equipment and spare parts on the packing list should be checked to affirm that all have been received and none are damaged. File an insurance claim with your freight carrier if damage has occurred during shipment.
  • Page 12 INSTALLATION Connecting Power to the Consistometer 1. Connect the supplied twist-on power connectors to the receptacles at the rear of the unit. 2. Connect the power plugs to an appropriately rated power source and receptacle. For user safety a power plug and mating receptacle are required. Note: This receptacle MUST be properly grounded.
  • Page 13 SECTION 2 - OPERATION Section 2 – Operating Instructions Training On site training classes are available. For more information, contact our Sales Department at Chandler Engineering. Preparing the Instrument for a Test The chart recorder is configured at the factory and will be ready for use at power-up. A manual has been enclosed for your reference.

  • Page 15 SECTION 2 - OPERATION 4. Slide the shear pin assembly onto the paddle shaft. Place the potentiometer mechanism on the paddle shaft until it seats. Using an Allen wrench, align the shear pin assembly into the bottom of the potentiometer mechanism and tighten the set screw to secure it in place.
  • Page 16 CYLINDER control switch in the FILL position during the test. 8. To apply the initial pressure to the test cell on a Model 7025C10 without pressure control, turn the Pump Switch to the MANUAL position. When the pressure reaches the desired level turn the Pump Switch to the OFF position.
  • Page 17 SECTION 2 - OPERATION should turn off). Press the F2 button to start the program. The Program Status indicator should turn on, the Percent Output Power value and Bar Graph should start increasing and the “1” light should begin flashing indicating the control output to the heater and/or pump.
  • Page 18 OPERATION 4. Turn the CYLINDER rocker switch to OFF. 5. Open the T-handled manual pressure release valve to relieve pressure in the cylinder to be cooled. Slowly opening and closing the valve to release pressure in increments will prevent rupture of the Slurry Cup Diaphragm. 6.
  • Page 19 SECTION 3 – MAINTENANCE Section 3 - Maintenance The operating life of the Consistometer can be extended measurably if operating and maintenance instructions provided in this manual are adhered to. Avoidance of down time and parts replacement depends on the proper cleaning, lubrication, replacement of filters, and calibration of instrumentation and controls.
  • Page 20 MAINTENANCE OF CONSISTOMETER operator. If the threads are damaged, the thermocouple may blow out under pressure. Inspect the exterior of the probe for thinning or nicking. Replace any or all components as required. Monthly Potentiometer Mechanism The potentiometer mechanism must be completely disassembled and cleaned. If any of the following components exhibit signs of wear, they must be replaced as follows.
  • Page 21 SECTION 3 – MAINTENANCE The potentiometer mechanism and the voltage measuring circuit, which indicate consistency, should be calibrated by using the Weight-Loaded Potentiometer Calibrating Device. This device is used to apply torque to the potentiometer spring, using the radius of the potentiometer frame as a lever arm.
