SOLTEQ ® HYDRAULIC BENCH MODEL: FM 110 HIS Hydraulic Bench (Model: FM 110) has been designed to complement a wide range of accessories for students experiments on the subjects of fluid mechanics. The unit consists of upper and lower mouldings mounted on a steel structure fitted with lockable wheels. The mouldings are made of fibreglass for lightweight and corrosion resistant features. An open channel and volumetric measuring tank are incorporated with the bench and means for mounting and connecting the various accessories are provided. DESCRIPTION Water is stored in a sump tank in the lower part. A centrifugal pump is provided to draw the water from the sump tank through a control valve to an outlet in the bed of the channel. After passing through an accessory, the water is collected in a volumetric measuring tank which is stepped to accommodate high and low flow rates. The volumetric tank incorporates a stilling baffle and remote sight tube with level scale. A dump valve at the base of the tank returns the water to the sump tank for recycling. An emergency overflow weir is incorporated to prevent overtopping if the dump valve is left closed. SPECIFICATIONS i) Sump tank : 120 litres ii) Volumetric tank : 85 litres iii) Centrifugal pump : 0.37 kW, 60 LPM Equipment for Engineering Education & Research T
