Flow Meter Demonstration
Product Code : JA-HAP-8918
The flow meter demonstration compares three flow meters, a venturi meter, a variable area meter and an orifice plate, installed in series on a support frame that stands on the hydraulics bench. Pressure tappings on each meter connect to an eight-tube manometer bank, so head loss and pressure drop can be measured and each meter calibrated against the bench measuring tank (SKU JA-HAP-8918).
