Orifice, Venturi & Rotameter Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-CELE-14154
Description
The Flow Measurement Apparatus is a self-contained
training system designed to study and compare the characteristics of Orifice
Meter, Venturi Meter, and Rotameter. The setup enables calibration and
performance analysis of these flowmeters by comparing their readings with the
actual flow measured in a measuring tank.
Both the Orifice Meter and Venturi
Meter are constructed from transparent acrylic (Perspex), allowing
clear visualization of flow behavior. Pressure tappings are strategically
provided to measure differential pressure using a Mercury U-tube manometer.
The system is designed to be compact,
robust, and versatile, allowing students to switch between meters easily.
It can be operated as a standalone unit or used with a Hydraulic
Bench. The apparatus provides an excellent platform for understanding flow
measurement principles, energy losses, and discharge coefficients.
