Hydraulic Bench Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-CELE-14201

The Basic Hydraulic Bench (Volumetric Type) is a self-contained and portable service unit designed to provide a continuous and controlled water supply for a wide range of experiments in Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics Laboratories.
It enables the study of flow measurement, hydraulic energy losses, and basic principles of fluid dynamics using a closed water circulation system.

The unit is highly versatile and serves as the primary service module for numerous auxiliary experiment modules.
Once filled, the system operates without requiring an external water supply — water is continuously recycled between the Storage Tank, Measuring Tank, and Experiment Module using a Centrifugal Pump.
Available in fiberglass, stainless steel (SS304), or mild steel, it is ideally suited for educational institutions and training centers.

Key Features

1. Self-contained, mobile, and portable design with a robust welded frame.
2. Available in three construction options:
• Reinforced fiberglass body for lightweight and corrosion resistance.
• Stainless steel (SS304) body for long service life.
• Mild steel body for economical laboratory setups.
3. Closed water circuit with a centrifugal pump, measuring tank, and storage tank for water recirculation.
4. Flow control valve provided to regulate pump output and flow rate.
5. Bench-top workspace with an integrated flow channel for weir and flow experiments.
6. Stepped mounting edges on bench-top for secure placement of auxiliary experiment modules.
7. Quick-connect pipe fittings for rapid module interchangeability.
8. Graduated, stepped measuring tank suitable for both low and high flow rates.
9. Level indicators for water levels in both the measuring tank and open channel.
10. Variable area flow meter (10–75 LPM) for independent flow rate measurement.
11. Stilling baffles in the measuring tank to minimize turbulence.
12. Transparent sight tube with scale for real-time water level indication.
13. Bull’s-eye level for bench alignment and accurate readings.
14. Remote actuator for operating the dump valve located at the tank base.
15. Overflow system in the measuring tank to prevent flooding.
16. Separate outlet connection on the storage tank for external hydraulic circuits.
17. Push-button starter for centrifugal pump operation.
18. Electrical protection with overload and under-voltage safeguards.

Technical Specifications

Optional Configuration

An optional setup is available for studying centrifugal pump performance under varying load conditions.
In this version, the pump is coupled to a motor dynamometer equipped with:

• Inverter and digital speed indicator.
• Spring balance for torque measurement.
• Pressure gauges at the pump inlet and outlet for head determination.
