Flow Meter Demonstration Unit
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-9937
The flow meter demonstration unit (SKU JA-FMAHLE-9937) is a self-contained apparatus for showing how different flow meters measure water flow in pipes and open channels. A service module with reservoir, pump and volumetric measuring tank feeds a removable test pipe, and a reference turbine flowmeter is permanently fitted for comparison. It is supplied by JaincoLab for flow measurement practicals in engineering colleges and polytechnics.
Specifications
The flow meter demonstration unit has 38 mm nominal bore pipework, a maximum flow rate of 2.3 litres/s, a 140 litre reservoir, a 40 litre volumetric tank, a 0.55 kW pump motor and a removable test pipe 750 mm long.

Applications of the flow meter demonstration unit
The flow meter demonstration unit lets students compare the readings of the metering devices fitted in the test pipe with the reference turbine flowmeter and with timed volumetric collection, and see how each meter behaves across the flow range.
- Calibrating flow meters against volumetric measurement
- Comparing meter readings with the reference turbine flowmeter
- Studying the characteristics of different flow meter types
- Flow measurement practicals for mechanical, civil and chemical engineering students
- Instrumentation and measurement laboratories in polytechnics
