Fundamentals of Sedimentation | FluidoSurge-X 244

The Fundamentals of Sedimentation | FluidoSurge-X 244 by SCIENTICO is a laboratory apparatus for studying solid-liquid separation through sedimentation. It features five transparent, backlit tanks for comparing settling velocities in different suspensions. The system supports experiments on particle density, concentration, and fluid properties. Suitable for fluid mechanics and environmental engineering teaching laboratories.

The Fundamentals of Sedimentation FluidoSurge-X 244 is a laboratory apparatus designed to study and compare sedimentation processes in suspensions. Manufactured by SCIENTICO, the unit enables observation and measurement of settling behavior of solid particles in liquids. It is intended for instructional experiments in fluid mechanics, environmental engineering, and process engineering laboratories. The system supports clear visual analysis through transparent tanks and backlighting.

Product Overview

FluidoSurge-X 244 consists of five transparent cylindrical tanks mounted vertically on a rigid experimental frame. Suspensions are prepared separately in measuring beakers and transferred to the tanks for testing. The tanks are removable to allow easy filling, mixing, and cleaning. Backlighting using fluorescent tubes or LEDs enhances visibility of the sedimentation interface, enabling accurate comparison of settling velocities under different conditions.
