Educational Liquid Permeameter (ELP-100A)
The PMI Liquid Permeameter measures the steady-state permeability of plug-sized rock samples by flowing a single-phase liquid through the core sample. During testing, a core plug is placed in the core holder and the confining pressure is applied.
Overview
The PMI Liquid Permeameter measures the steady-state permeability of plug-sized rock samples by flowing a single-phase liquid through the core sample. During testing, a core plug is placed in the core holder and the confining pressure is applied. The liquid is injected into the saturated core sample at a constant flow rate, and the stabilized upstream pressure is recorded. The outlet pressure is maintained at atmospheric pressure. Differential pressure, flow rate, and the viscosity of the liquid are incorporated into Darcy's law to calculate the liquid permeability of the rock sample.
- Provides fast and accurate measurement of liquid permeability.
- Easy loading and unloading of the core sample.

Manual Core Saturator
The PMI Manual Core Saturator is designed to perform a sequence of vacuum, saturation, and depressurization cycles on multiple plug-sized samples or full-diameter samples. The apparatus includes a saturation cell, a vacuum pump, a hand-operated pressure pump, a feed tank, a pressure gauge for measuring saturation pressure, and the necessary hand-operated valves and plumbing.
Steady State Liquid Permeameter
The PMI Steady State Liquid Permeameter is used to measure the permeability of samples such as oil-well cores, tight gas sandstones, and other low-permeability rocks. Liquids such as brine, oil, and other compatible fluids are used as the permeating medium.
Educational Resistivity System
The PMI Educational Resistivity System is designed for instructional use in universities and other teaching institutions. The instrument features a robust design suitable for repeated student use.
