Venturimeter & Orificemeter Calibration Set-up Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-CELE-14093

This experimental apparatus is specifically designed for the comparative study and calibration of two essential differential pressure flow meters: the Venturimeter and the Orificemeter. The setup integrates both meters in a parallel configuration emerging from a common manifold, allowing for the operation and flow regulation of either one via dedicated downstream valves. The system functions as a self-contained water re-circulating unit, utilizing a centrifugal pump and sump tank . Crucially, pressure tapings from both flow meters lead to a differential manometer to accurately measure the pressure drop (head loss), while the actual flow rate is determined volumetrically using a measuring tank and stop watch. The core educational purpose is the determination of the Coefficient of Discharge (Cd) for each meter and their use as practical flow measurement tools.
