Flow Measurement Trainer | Prozessi PX 19
The Flow Measurement Trainer Prozessi PX 19 teaches five flow measurement methods through hands-on experiments. This Flow Measurement Trainer integrates an acrylic venturi meter, orifice meter, pitot tube, rotameter and water meter in a closed loop water circulation system. Five structured experiments measure coefficients of discharge and device accuracy. The system includes an SS304 supply tank, 3 liter measuring tank, graduated scale pressure tube, submersible pump and CPVC piping. MS Excel calculation templates and detailed operational instructions are included.
The Flow Measurement Trainer Prozessi PX 19 is designed to study five different types of units used for flow measurement in fluid mechanics. This Flow Measurement Trainer includes a venturi meter, orifice meter, pitot tube, rotameter and water meter mounted on a standalone structure with closed loop water circulation.
Product Overview
The Flow Measurement Trainer Prozessi PX 19 consists of five flow measurement devices mounted on a standalone structure: an acrylic venturi meter (size 18.5 mm, bore 10 mm), an acrylic orifice meter (size 18.5 mm, bore 12 mm), an acrylic pitot tube (size 18.5 mm), a rotameter (60-600 LPH range), and a brass water meter (1/2″ BSP, least count 1 liter). A stainless steel SS304 supply tank and a 3 liter acrylic measuring tank with graduated scale are integrated into the system. A fractional horse power submersible pump provides closed loop water circulation through 3/4″ BSP CPVC piping. A graduated scale pressure difference tube allows observation of differential pressures across the flow measurement devices. The Flow Measurement Trainer is compact, simple to operate and includes MS Excel sample calculations for coefficient of discharge and accuracy analysis. Overall dimensions are 550W x 475D x 750H mm.

Construction and Design
The Flow Measurement Trainer Prozessi PX 19 is mounted on a standalone structure measuring 550W x 475D x 750H mm. Five acrylic flow measurement devices are mounted horizontally in the flow path: a venturi meter (18.5 mm size, 10 mm bore), an orifice meter (18.5 mm size, 12 mm bore) and a pitot tube (18.5 mm size). A rotameter rated 60-600 LPH and a brass water meter (1/2″ BSP, least count 1 liter) are also integrated into the flow path. Water is stored in an SS304 stainless steel supply tank and circulated through 3/4″ BSP CPVC piping by a fractional horse power submersible pump. A 3 liter acrylic measuring tank with graduated scale collects water after passing through the flow measurement devices. A graduated scale pressure difference tube allows students to observe differential pressures across each device. The Flow Measurement Trainer is designed for simple operation and minimal maintenance with non-corrosive materials throughout the wetted path.
Software and Calculation Aids
MS Excel sample calculations are provided with the Flow Measurement Trainer for computing coefficient of discharge and accuracy analysis across all five flow measurement methods.
