6700-M Mini-Loop System For Friction Pressure Testing

Chandler Engineering announces its launch of the 6700-M Mini-Loop, a compact bench system designed for precise measurement of friction pressure in slick water fracturing fluids. This latest addition to the 6700 Friction Flow Loop product line delivers advanced testing capabilities in a portable, space-saving design.

This compact system evaluates the performance of friction reducers in fracturing fluids across a wide range of pressures and pipe diameters under controlled flow conditions. Leveraging Chandler Engineering’s proprietary software, the system provides comprehensive data acquisition and analysis, granting operators full control over test parameters including duration and temperature. Throughout each test cycle, the system continuously captures and calculates critical data for accurate, repeatable results.

With its low-volume fluid requirements, the 6700-M is ideal for quality control testing, enabling fast, repeatable assessments of fluid performance. It also serves as a powerful tool for research and development, allowing engineers to validate friction-reducing systems before scaling up to full-size loop testing. Additionally, its compact footprint and portability make it well-suited for use in field test laboratories, including on-site well locations where rapid fluid evaluation is essential.
