Sand Content Kit

PZT-LAB-SC
Sand content kit laid out with 200-mesh screen, polyethylene funnel, graduated glass measuring tube and wash bottle

Sand is the fraction that costs money in pump liners, swab rubbers and bit nozzles rather than in the mud report. The sample is washed through a fine mesh, the retained solids settled in a graduated tube, and the result read directly as a volume percentage. It is a two-minute test that pays for itself the first time it catches degraded solids-control performance before the pumps do.
