One of the primary functions of a drilling fluid is to carry drilled solids from the well bore. These solids are a contaminant， and if left in the system， can lead to numerous problems. The Sand Content Kit determines the volume percent of sand-sized particles in the drilling fluid. API defines sand-sized particles as any material larger than 74 μm (200 mesh) in size. The test can be performed on low solids fluids as well as on weighted fluids. The kit consists of a glass tube graduated to read percent (%) by volume， a funnel， and a 200-mesh sieve contained in a cylindrical shaped holder.
