Select Edit → Cell 1 (or Cell 2) → Test

2. On the Information tab, enter the necessary information.

The Bob Height and Bob Diameter fields are used to calculate the gel

strength during SGSM tests. All other fields on this tab are optional.

3. On the Configuration tab, set the following parameters:

Type:

Select SGSM

Stop at End:

When this option is “No”, the test will run until you click

the “Stop Test” button or the gel strength reaches the value in the Final

Strength field. The final temperature and pressure setpoints will be main-

tained indefinitely. If this option is “Yes”, the test will end when all steps in

the Test Profile are complete.

Temp Unit:

Choose either F (Fahrenheit) or C (Celsius)

Density Unit:

Choose either lb/gal or kg/cu m

Temperature Control:

The instrument has two thermocouples. One is in

the cement sample in the cell. The other is in the heating jacket (Bath).

Use this option to determine which thermocouple will be used to control

the temperature. The “Sample” setting is recommended during testing.

The “Bath” setting is recommended during pre-heat.
