APDP-10K & CFP-1500AEL

Automated Pulse Decay Permeameter

APDP-10K & CFP-1500AEL

Overview

Automated Pulse Decay Permeameter

PMI’s Advanced Automated Pulse Decay Permeameter is used to measure the gas permeability of rock samples with ultra‑low permeability. The pulse decay method enables measurement of samples that are difficult to analyze using conventional steady‑state techniques.

CFP iPore-1500AEL:

The iPore is an advanced capillary flow porometer series designed to provide accurate and reproducible pore structure measurements. Each model includes integrated pressure control, sensing systems, data acquisition and analysis software, sample holders, and optional accessories and consumable kits.

Automated Pulse Decay Permeameter

iPore CFP-1500AEL

- Liquid Permeability Function is by Penetrometer (higher sensitivity and accuracy compared to weighing balance system. Also, liquid filling and draining is automatic). - Fully automated Permeameter System. - Gas permeability determination based on the unsteady State pressure falloff method. - Includes data acquisition, calculation and reporting software includes calculation of Klinkenberg corrected permeability. - User-friendly Windows based software handles all control, measurement, data collection and report generation. - Complete manual control from software. - Non-destructive testing. - Length of test varies with sample, test to 7 days or more continuously. - The machine has many advanced hardware and software features not available from other manufacturers.

- Testing of small samples as well as complete parts. - Any sample geometry (Example: sheets, rods, tubes, hollow fibers, cartridges & powders) can be used with selection of appropriate sample holders (options available). - Any nonwetting liquid. - Tests in QC, research or any number of user defined modes. - Real time graphic display. - Window based software for all control, measurements, data collection, data reduction and report preparation. - Automatic piston movement to close the chamber while starting the test. - Region of interest doesn’t change due to automatic piston movement. - Measurement of pressure close to the sample to minimize pressure drop correction. - Straight flow path avoiding turbulence. - Versatile sample chamber for a variety of samples and test modes. - Pore Structure characteristics:

Mean Pore Size. - Pore Size Distribution. - Pore Flow % Distribution. - Pore Number Distribution. - Bubble Point (the largest through pore throat diameter). - Bubble Point Mean flow pore diameter (50% of flow is through pores smaller than the mean flow pore). - Pore Surface Area. - Gas Permeability in many desired units including Frazier, Gurley, Rayl & Darcy. - Liquid Permeability. - Diameter of the most constricted part of a through pore (Pore throat). - Unlimited Data Points.
