FAQs of DISCHARGE THROUGH ROTA-METER APPARATUS:
Q: How is the discharge measured using the rota-meter apparatus?
A: The discharge is measured by allowing water to flow through the borosilicate glass rotameter tube, where the float (made of SS or anodized aluminum) rises in response to the flow. The position of the float is read against the graduated analog scale, directly indicating the flow rate in litres per minute (LPM), which can be manually adjusted using the control valve.
Q: What benefits does this apparatus offer to educational laboratories?
A: This apparatus offers several benefits including high measurement accuracy (2% FSD), reliable performance, portability, and minimal maintenance needs. It is self-contained, easy to calibrate, and complies with IS/ISO laboratory equipment standards, making it ideal for repeated use in educational settings.
Q: When should the apparatus be calibrated and how is it done?
A: Calibration should be performed initially before use, after maintenance, or if readings appear inconsistent. Calibration involves setting the apparatus at known flow rates and ensuring the floats position corresponds to the correct graduation on the scale, adjusting as necessary using the manual control valve.
Q: Where is this discharge through rota-meter apparatus typically installed and used?
A: This equipment is designed for benchtop installation in engineering college laboratories and technical training institutes. Its portable design allows for flexible placement and easy relocation as required within teaching or demonstration environments.
Q: What is the process for operating the apparatus safely and efficiently?
A: To operate, fill the main tank with water, switch on the electric pump, and use the manual valve to control the flow. Observe the floats position along the rotameter scale to read the flow rate. Water is collected in the graduated tank and can be reused for multiple tests, ensuring both efficiency and safe handling.
Q: How does the rotameter ensure accurate and reliable flow measurement?
A: The apparatus employs a borosilicate glass tube for clear visibility and a precision-machined float that responds sensitively to flow changes. The analog graduated scale allows direct and accurate readings, while robust materials ensure stable performance over prolonged use.
Q: What makes this apparatus durable and suitable for frequent use?
A: Constructed with corrosion-resistant stainless steel, anodized aluminum, borosilicate glass, and powder-coated mild steel, the apparatus withstands frequent laboratory use. Its low maintenance requirements and strong build quality ensure lasting performance even in demanding educational environments.
