Scientico India is a manufacturer-direct Hydraulic Bench supplier to Iraq, shipping universal hydraulics benches and matching accessories to fluid-mechanics labs across Basra, Kufa, Kerbala, Baghdad and the Kurdistan Region. We build the bench in Ambala, quote CIF Umm Qasr in Arabic and English, and work through your locally registered agent for MOHESR tenders. If you also want the wider Indian market context before you shortlist, read our Hydraulic Bench buyer’s guide (India) and browse the full fluid mechanics lab equipment category.
I have been exporting hydraulic benches out of India since the early 2000s. Iraq is a serious market for us now, mostly because federal universities are re-equipping mechanical engineering departments after years of deferred capex, and Kurdistan Region universities are running their own parallel procurement under MHESR-KRG. This page tells you exactly how we sell into that market.

Review the product information, specifications and model before requesting a quotation.
Multi Pump Test Rig Apparatus | FluidoSurge-X 294
The FluidoSurge X-294 is a multi pump test rig (series and parallel centrifugal pump test rig) that lets students run single, series and parallel pump configurations on one apparatus and compare the resulting head–discharge–efficiency characteristics.

Kaplan Turbine Apparatus | FluidoSurgeX 208
The Kaplan Turbine Apparatus FluidoSurgeX 208 is a laboratory-scale training system designed to study the operating characteristics of a Kaplan reaction turbine. Manufactured by SCIENTICO, the apparatus demonstrates energy conversion from hydraulic power to mechanical power. It is suitable for instructional experiments in fluid mechanics and hydraulic machinery laboratories. The system operates using a controlled water supply from a hydraulic bench.

Hydraulic Bench Apparatus | FluidoSurgeX 101
The SCIENTICO FluidoSurgeX 101 Hydraulic Bench Apparatus is a basic supply and measurement unit used in fluid mechanics laboratories. It enables the circulation, measurement, and collection of water for a wide range of experimental modules.The system operates on a closed-loop water circuit consisting of a storage tank, centrifugal pump, and an elevated measuring tank. Volumetric flow rates are determined using stepped measuring tanks and a calibrated measuring beaker, supported by manual stopwatch timing.An integrated work surface with a built-in flume allows experiments involving weirs while ensuring safe placement of accessories and controlled collection of return water.

View product detailsWhy Iraq colleges buy Hydraulic Bench from India
Three reasons, in order of what actually matters on a bid sheet.
First, landed cost. An Indian-built Hydraulic Bench, CIF Umm Qasr, usually lands 30 to 45 percent below a comparable European bench and roughly in line with Turkish and Chinese offers, with better documentation than the Chinese and better spares support than the Turkish. On a MOHESR tender that is often the difference between shortlist and reject.
Second, documentation. Iraqi university procurement committees want an ISO 9001 certificate, CE marking on electrical accessories, a bilingual Arabic and English pro-forma invoice, an Arabic BOQ line-item match, and a calibration certificate for the flow-measurement section. We ship all of that as standard. If your tender references ISO 9001:2015 or CE marking, we have the paperwork ready.
Third, English-language manuals and training videos that your junior technicians can actually use. Every Hydraulic Bench ships with an English operator manual, an Arabic quick-start summary on request, and a wiring diagram that a workshop electrician in Basra can follow without a translator.
A quiet fourth reason: we are the manufacturer. You are not buying through a Dubai reseller who adds 22 percent and disappears after commissioning.
Scientico’s Hydraulic Bench range for Iraq
For Iraq we typically quote two configurations, both from our fluid mechanics range.
The standard Hydraulic Bench for undergraduate fluid-mechanics labs, sized for a single class group, with volumetric measuring tank, sump, self-priming centrifugal pump and quick-connect for the accessory experiments. This is the workhorse and it is what most Iraqi mechanical engineering departments actually need.
Where the syllabus goes further, into pump characteristics and parallel/series pump testing, we upgrade to the FluidoSurgeX Multi Pump Test Rig, which sits alongside the bench and shares the same water circuit. For turbine coursework we pair the bench with the FluidoSurgeX Kaplan Turbine Apparatus. That combination has been our most common Iraq shortlist for the last two tender cycles because it lets one procurement package cover most of the fluid-mechanics practicals in the MOHESR mechanical engineering syllabus.
Accessories we routinely add to the Hydraulic Bench quote for Iraq: Bernoulli’s theorem apparatus, orifice and mouthpiece, losses in pipes, impact of jet, metacentric height, and Reynolds apparatus. Buy them together with the bench and freight per unit drops sharply, which matters when you are consolidating one 20-foot container for Umm Qasr.
Hydraulic Bench, specifications Iraq buyers ask for
- Sump tank capacity typically 160 to 250 litres, stainless or heavy-gauge GI with epoxy coat
- Volumetric measuring tank with dual-range sight glass, typically 0 to 5 L and 0 to 40 L
- Self-priming centrifugal pump, single-phase 220 V / 50 Hz or three-phase 380 V / 50 Hz on request, confirm site supply before order
- Flow control and bypass valves in gunmetal or SS, quick-connect coupling to accessories
- Powder-coated mild steel or SS-304 frame, castor-mounted, working height suited to a standing student
- Bilingual Arabic/English nameplate and control labels on request at no extra cost
Import process into Iraq
Timings below are indicative and depend on tender award date, LC opening speed and port congestion. Treat them as planning ranges, not promises.
| Route | Port of entry | Typical transit from Mundra/Nhava Sheva | Onward trucking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Federal Iraq, standard | Umm Qasr North / South (Basra) | ~18 to 28 days sea | Baghdad ~550 km, Mosul ~950 km |
| Heavy / bulk consolidation | Khor Al-Zubair (Basra) | ~20 to 30 days sea | Same corridor as Umm Qasr |
| Kurdistan Region | Mersin (Turkey), then Ibrahim Khalil / Habur border | ~25 to 35 days sea + land | Erbil, Duhok, Sulaymaniyah |
| Anbar / western Iraq | Aqaba (Jordan), then Trebil border | ~22 to 32 days sea + land | Anbar, Baghdad when Umm Qasr is congested |
| Urgent / high value | Baghdad International (BGW) | Air freight, 5 to 9 days | Direct to university stores |
Payment: LC-at-sight against pro-forma is the norm on university tenders, advance TT is common on smaller MoE technical-institute orders. We invoice through your locally registered agent listed with the Ministry of Trade Company Registrar, which is a hard requirement for most federal bids.
Standards & documentation for Iraq tenders
Our Hydraulic Bench ships with an ISO 9001:2015 quality certificate from Scientico, CE marking on the electrical/pump section, a factory calibration certificate for the flow-measurement train, and a signed test report. For MOHESR and MHESR-KRG bids we also provide an Arabic BOQ mirror, an Arabic technical summary, and a declaration of origin. If your tender is routed through COSQC for import conformity, we prepare the datasheet pack in the format the customs broker in Umm Qasr expects. Medical or nursing college buyers procuring under the Ministry of Health and Environment (MoH) should ask us for the corresponding nursing lab equipment and pharmacy lab equipment guides. For labs that also need NABL-traceable calibration, see our note on ISO 17025 calibration.
One practical Arabic note: the phrase Iraqi procurement officers use for Hydraulic Bench is منضدة هيدروليكية (mindadat hidrolikiya). Put that on your BOQ line and the technical evaluator will match your quote to the specification faster.
