What Is a Pan Balance?
⭐ Key Features of Petropath’s Pan Balance
1. High-Precision Measurement
Accuracy matters. The Pan Balance is engineered for highly sensitive weighing tasks, providing consistent readings with minimal deviation. This ensures that your drilling fluid analysis yields dependable, audit-ready results every time.
2. Robust Stainless-Steel Construction
Oilfield conditions can be harsh, but this balance is tougher. Constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the unit withstands chemical exposure, rough handling, and demanding field conditions while maintaining its accuracy.
3. Dual-Pan Configuration
The traditional dual-pan setup allows direct comparative measurement—crucial for mud weight calibration, specific gravity tests, and analytical procedures. It delivers clear and reliable results without relying on electronic components.
4. User-Friendly Ergonomic Design
Smooth movement arms, easy-to-use calibration knobs, and clearly marked measuring indicators make the balance simple for both experts and beginners. Even non-technical users can operate it confidently.
5. Portable and Compact Structure
Field operations demand mobility. This lightweight design allows seamless transportation between rigs, labs, and training centers without compromising stability or performance.
