Ultrasonic Cement Analyzer – Model 304

Ultrasonic Cement Analyzer(UCA) – Model 304 from Fann

The Ultrasonic Cement Analyzer (UCA) Model 304 from Fann Instrument Company is a precision instrument designed to monitor the strength development of oil well cements under simulated downhole conditions. Using ultrasonic pulse velocity measurements, the UCA provides a non-destructive, real-time analysis of cement compressive strength during curing. This data is essential for determining set times and planning optimal wait-on-cement (WOC) schedules in well cementing operations.

Key Features of Ultrasonic Cement Analyzer

• Non-Destructive Testing: Uses ultrasonic velocity to measure strength development during curing—no sample extraction required.

• Multi-Sample Capability: Test up to 8 samples simultaneously with optional autoclaves.

• Independent Autoclave Control: Each autoclave is independently managed for temperature and pressure.

• Real-Time Graphing: Monitor compressive strength growth with dynamic visualization.

• Configurable Events: Set up to 4 user-defined strength or time events with automated alerts.

• LAN/Internet Enabled: Remote access, monitoring, and email reporting capabilities.

• Easy Operation: Includes Start Wizard with step-by-step instructions to minimize user error.

• Flexible Data Handling: Export results as .txt, .csv, or .pdf for advanced analysis or documentation.

• Unlimited Storage: Store unlimited test data on the UCA’s integrated system.

Applications of Ultrasonic Cement Analyzer

• Cement Strength Development Monitoring: Track strength growth trend and estimate wait-on-cement (WOC) time.

• Set Time Determination: Identify initial and final set times accurately.

• Oil & Gas Well Cementing: Used in the lab to plan cementing schedules and analyze slurry behavior under simulated downhole conditions.

• API Compliance Testing: Supports industry standards for oil well cement evaluation.
