The GUNT HM 163.36 Siphon Weir is a precision hydraulic device designed to study the operation and discharge characteristics of siphon weirs. These fixed weirs, historically used as spillways in dams, provide a high specific discharge capacity and allow observation of siphon operation under controlled laboratory conditions.
Product Features
- Fixed siphon weir with high specific discharge capacity
- Operates automatically when the water level reaches a certain height, creating full-flow discharge pressure in the pipe
- Discharge capacity is higher than that of a free overfall
- Air is drawn into the siphon when water level falls, abruptly stopping the flow
- Transparent siphon weir with an air vent to compare function and discharge capacity with and without venting
- Discharge can be interrupted at any time using the air vent
- Durable construction suitable for laboratory and educational use
Benefits
- Allows study of siphon weir operation and discharge characteristics
- Enables comparison of vented vs. non-vented siphon function
- Supports hydraulic research and educational demonstrations
- Easy observation due to transparent design and integrated air vent
Why Choose GUNT HM 163.36 - Siphon Weir?
This siphon weir allows precise study of high-capacity discharge behavior and siphon operation, making it ideal for laboratory experiments and hydraulic engineering education.
