Description
The Pipe Network Unit, with Hydraulics Bench (FME00), “AMT”, consists of a Pipe network, a lateral panel where all the elements to test are located and a hydraulics bench, which has all the elements and accessories required for the unit to work autonomously.
The valves that some of the elements have in order to form the different circuits are On-Off valves, necessary to distribute the flow along the net.
The unit has a system of anti-blockage pressure takings, located upstream and downstream of each element that is going to be tested. All of them have a quick and easy connection to the pressure measurement devices of the unit.
The unit includes an Hydraulics Bench (FME00) that has a volumetric measuring system, consisting of a two-level tank. The small one is used to measure low flows and the big one, to measure higher flows. A gauge, which consists of a scale and a transparent tube is connected to a bypass on the base of tank and gives an instantaneous measurement of the water level.
A centrifugal pump located inside the hydraulics bench is used to add energy to the fluid. The flow can be regulated by a control valve located on the hydraulics bench.
