Orifice Flowmeter | FluidoSurge-X 232
A CE-certified flow measurement apparatus for calibrating and comparing venturimeter, orifice meter, and rotameter flow-rate instruments, manufactured by Scientico India to ISO 9001:2015 standards. Supplied with calibration certificate, operation manual, and complete export documentation. Designed for Fluid Mechanics laboratories in engineering colleges and technical institutions.
The Orifice Flowmeter FluidoSurge-X 232 is a laboratory apparatus designed to demonstrate and study flow measurement using the differential pressure principle. Manufactured by SCIENTICO, the unit enables experimental verification of Bernoulli’s principle and the continuity law. It is intended for instructional use in fluid mechanics and hydraulics laboratories. The apparatus operates in conjunction with a hydraulic bench or laboratory water supply.
Product Overview
FluidoSurge-X 232 consists of a transparent pipe section fitted with an orifice plate that constricts the flow area. As fluid passes through the orifice, an increase in velocity causes a measurable pressure drop. This differential pressure is displayed on a manometer, allowing the flow rate to be calculated based on the geometry of the orifice. The transparent front section provides clear visualization of the flow restriction and measuring principle.
