2. Apply a thin layer of high-temperature grease to any surface that will be
in contact with cement. This will make cleaning easier when the test is
complete.
3. Carefully screw the bottom cell cap onto the test cell.
The cell cap should turn smoothly in the test cell threads. If you encounter
resistance, stop turning and unscrew the cap slightly. Then continue
turning until the cap is completely tightened.
4. Once the cap is completely tightened, unscrew it one quarter turn. This
will facilitate disassembly later.
5.
Turn the test cell over and begin filling with the cement slurry. Place the
fill gauge on top of the test cell. Fill the cell until the cement touches the
bottom of the fill gauge labeled UCA.
6. Carefully screw the top cell cap into the test cell, just as you did with the
bottom cell cap.
