Technical Description
The test stand is used for familiarisation with a wide range of flowmeters. These devices are available as accessories and are easily installed in the mounting position foreseen. A vertical and a horizontal measuring station are provided on the test stand. The flowmeters are supplied with water by the test stand. As the test stand has a closed water circuit with supply tank and pump, only a mains electricity supply is required to operate the test stand. The pipework consists of corrosion-resistant material; 2 tube manometers in the form of a differential pressure gauge are provided for determining pressure losses. To be able to check the function and precision of the flowmeters under investigation, a reference flowmeter is provided.
