LN1 – 1000 Automated Holding Pump

Automated holding pump is intended for the application and maintenance of pressure in hydraulic systems. The pump consists of one plunger and can continuously control fluid pressure in the system for an unlimited period of time. During short pauses necessary for fluid intake into the piston by automatic valves, the upstream line is blocked to keep the system sealed. The pump also has a reversed mode to pump fluid out of the system in case of pressure build up.

During fluid supply, the pumped volume is precisely measured, which allows using the pump for accurate fluid dosing. Wetted parts of the pump can be made of chemically resistant materials to work with aggressive solutions.

Control

The pump is controlled from the control panel of the housing which consists of an LCD and a keypad. Also, the pump can be connected to a PC to control the operating modes using software supplied with the pump. Pressure and flow rate data are communicated to the PC for display.

Main operating modes of the pumps:

  • Constant flow rate;
  • Constant pressure;
  • Programmed cycles with changing pressure (changing pressure a given value within a given time).

Cells for proppant conductivity studies

API-61 cell is intended for proppant conductivity studies. To perform a measurement, proppant is placed between the two planes of the cell. A cell modeling a fracture is placed in a hydraulic press. A prepared pre-heated liquid is pumped through the proppant pack. At a fixed compression of the pack, the following parameters are measured: pressure difference, flow rate and fracture width.
