The GUNT Hydraulic Circuit with Centrifugal Pump is an experimental unit designed to demonstrate the principles of hydraulic circuit design, including flow behavior, pressure losses, and pump characteristics. The unit draws an analogy between hydraulic and electrical circuits, making it ideal for educational purposes.
Product Features
- Hydraulic circuits are designed based on task and application, requiring knowledge of flow behavior, pressure losses in valves and fittings, and pump characteristics; the hydraulic circuit analogy to electrical circuits is demonstrated clearly in this unit.
- The experimental unit includes a centrifugal pump, rotameter, diaphragm valve, water tank, and various other valves and fittings.
- Once filled, the unit operates independently from the water supply for flexible use.
- Flow is adjusted by valves and measured with a rotameter for precise flow control.
- Pressure measuring points are designed as annular chambers in the pipe system to enable largely interference-free pressure measurement.
- An electronic pressure meter is supplied for differential pressure measurement; pressure points are connected in pairs to the meter with differential pressure shown on the display.
Benefits
- Provides hands-on experience with hydraulic circuit design and operation
- Allows detailed study of flow behavior and pressure loss in valves and fittings
- Independent operation facilitates flexible laboratory use without continuous water supply
- Accurate flow and pressure measurements support precise experiments and data analysis
- Ideal for teaching fluid mechanics and hydraulic engineering principles
