The GUNT Installation Technology trainer enables practical investigation of pressure losses caused by changes in pipe direction. It demonstrates how different pipe bend geometries and materials affect flow resistance in heating and sanitary pipe networks.
Product Features
- Investigates pressure losses in pipes due to directional changes with various bend geometries.
- Includes four pipe elements, each with ten bends of equal pipe length but differing in radius and material.
- Pipe elements are commercially standard components used in heating and sanitary engineering.
- Flexible hose connects the selected measuring section for targeted testing.
- Clear panel mounted on a robust, mobile frame for ease of use and demonstration.
- Flow rate adjustable via valves on inflow and return lines, with flow measured by a rotameter.
- Pressure measurement points are annular chambers placed before and after measuring sections for accurate differential pressure recording.
- Sensors connect in pairs to a differential pressure meter with a digital display for real-time monitoring.
Benefits
- Provides hands-on understanding of pressure losses due to pipe bends in fluid systems.
- Illustrates the influence of bend radius and pipe material on flow resistance.
- Supports practical training for heating, plumbing, and sanitary engineering applications.
- Mobile and durable design ideal for classroom and lab environments.
