AutoLab 1000 is a servo-hydraulicly controlled hydrostatic system for measurements of compressional and shear wave velocities, permeability, electrical resistivity, pore volume compressibility, and linear compressibility on rock specimens at in situ overburden pressure, pore pressure, and temperature. Computer control and data acquisition with NER AutoLab v6 software features the ability to easily build scripts for program automation, execute the experimental protocol, and export data directly to customizable Excel spreadsheets.
AutoLab 1000 Key Features
- Servo-hydraulic control of confining pressure, pore pressure, and flow rate,
- Cloverleaf closures lock the pressure vessel with a 60° rotation; this design is convenient for high through put measurements,
- An external furnace heats the sample to 150oC (300oF),
- Pore pressure intensifiers with ceramic pistons and titanium bodies that are compatible with with water, brine, oil, and gas (including CO2),
- Integrated electronics console for servo amplifiers and signal conditioning
- Extremely quiet and compact hydraulic power supply.
