Piping Loss Test Set Small

The loss is measured by differential pressure using manometers. Pressure tapping is by valves with quick connection. The unit is on a steel frame on wheels. All pressure taps are connected by flexible hoses to a set of specially arranged manifolds such that differential pressure across any component can be measured simply by opening valves without removing the hoses. 
Piping Loss Test Set Small is a self contained unit for studying the friction loss in pipes, pipe fittings and valves at various flow rates.
The unit consists of a pump, a storage tank and a water proof panel on which all friction loss components are arranged.
