Dynamic HTHP Filter Press

Dynamic HTHP Filter Press

The Dynamic High Temperature High Pressure (HTHP or HPHT) filter press measures filtration volume and cake building properties under varying downhole conditions. A motor-driven shaft fitted with propellers turns at varying speeds inside a standard 500 mL HTHP cell. RPM settings from 1 to 3600 RPM impart laminar or turbulent flow to the fluid inside the cell. By varying the shaft length, the shear stress may be increased or decreased.

Features of Dynamic HTHP Filter Press

• Built-in cooling system allows the cell to be cooled before it is de-pressurized and removed from the jacket
• Auxiliary pipe connection for the cell top cap. Plug may be removed to add additional fluid additives.
• Safety calibrated rupture disk guards against overpressure
• Electronic temperature control
• Built-in pressure regulators
• Optional filter permeabilities available
• Radial/axial flow propeller
• Adjustable propeller to change distance above filter media
