Kurzbeschreibung
The High Pressure, High Temperature (HPHT) curing chambers Model 1910 is specifically designed to cure up to 16 standard two-inch cement cube samples (or alternative sealant material) for compressive strength testing in accordance with API Spec 10A / ISO 10426-1 standards for oilfield cements. The curing chambers cover a wide range of operational temperatures and pressures to simulate a wide variety of downhole conditions during the curing process (up to 370 degC and 25.000 MPa).
