Flowmeter Measurement Apparatus

Product Description

The Flowmeter Measurement Apparatus consists of a Venturi meter, variable area meter and orifice plate, installed in a series configuration to permit direct comparison. A flow control valve permits variation of the flow rate through the circuit.Pressure tappings are incorporated so that the head loss characteristics of each flow meter may be measured. These tappings are connected to an eight tube manometer bank incorporating a manifold with air bleed valve. Pressurisation of the manometers is facilitated by a hand pump.The circuit and manometer are attached to a support framework which stands on the working top of the Hydraulics Bench. The bench is used as the source of water supply and for calibrating volumetrically each flow meter.Specification: -Venturi meter, variable area meter and orifice plate with control valveSupplied with manometer board with eight tubesPressure tappings to measure head loss from each meterQuick release fitting for easy connection to hydraulics benchTechnical Details Item Flowmeter Measurement Apparatus Manometer range 0 to 440mm Number of manometer tubes 8 Orifice plate diameter 20mm Variable area meter 2 to 20 litres/min Venturi dimensions Throat diameter: 15mm Upstream pipe diameter: 31.75mm Upstream taper: 21o inclusive Downstream taper: 14oinclusive
