Designed to measure the lubricating quality of drilling fluids
The Fann Model 212 Combination EP (Extreme Pressure) and Lubricity Tester is a high-quality instrument designed to measure the lubricating quality of drilling fluids, provide data to evaluate the type and quantity of lubricating additives that may be required, and predict wear rates of mechanical parts in known fluid systems.
EP tests are performed by applying a measured force with a torque arm to a torque-sensitive, rotating bearing cup. This provides a means of testing lubrication under extreme pressure conditions and produces an indication of the film strength of the fluid being tested.
EP/Lubricity Tester capabilities include:
- Measuring the lubricating quality of drilling fluids
- Providing data to evaluate the type and quantity of lubricating additives that may be required
- Predicting wear rates of mechanical parts in known fluid systems
