Flow Meters Demonstration, demonstrates the important characteristics of fifteen types of flow meters used in the measurement of water flow through pipes or open channels.
Technical Specifications
ATENG 11768 — Flow Meters Demonstration
FMDU-UB. ATENG 11768 Base Unit:
A self-contained unit to demonstrate the characteristics of flow meters used in measurement of water flow through pipes or open channels.
Anodized aluminum frame and panels made of painted steel.
The unit includes wheels to facilitate its mobility.
Main metallic elements made of stainless steel.
Diagram in the front panel with distribution of the elements similar to the real one.
Pipe circuit, including:
Flow regulation valve.
Several pressure measurement tappings.
Air entrainment device.
Flexible pipe to connect to the Hydraulics Bench.
Additional pipes to change the pipe circuit configuration.
Water manometer of 1 m length and two Bourdon type manometers from 0 – 2.5 bar, precision 1%, to measure the pressure drop.
Flow meters are mounted in pipes that can be fitted into the unit test zone quickly and easily.
Quick and easy removal of pipes with test flow meters for evaluation and inspection.
Meters can be used independently to support research or student project work.
Hydraulics Bench:
Mobile hydraulic bench, made in polyester reinforced with fibreglass, and mounted on wheels for mobility.
Centrifugal pump, 0.55 kW, 2.5 bar, 150 l/min, single phase 200 VAC – 240 VAC/50 Hz or 110 VAC – 127 VAC/60 Hz. Pump
breaker starting.
Sump tank capacity: 165 l.
Small channel: 8 l.
Flow measurement: volumetric tank, gauged from 0 – 7 l for low flow values and from 0 – 40 l for high flow values.
Remote hand-operating dump valves in the base of the volumetric tank.
Level tube with a scale that shows the water level in the upper tank.
Flow stilling baffle for reducing the turbulence rate.
Manufactured with corrosion resistant materials ensuring a long life of the unit. Safety and contact light.
Cables and Accessories, for normal operation.
