Featured Equipment

General Flow Sensor with Venturi Tube

The General Flow Sensor with Venturi Tube determines fluid velocity by measuring the pressure difference between the two input tubes within a pipe network.

General Flow Sensor

The General Flow Sensor measures the flow rate of air or water. Venturi Tubes or Pitot Tubes are available separately.

Pressure Taps (5 Pack)

Set of 5 clear PVC taps for water flow visibility when designing and constructing pipe networks. For use with an Absolute Pressure Sensor.

Pumping Systems

In this experiment, students determine the characteristic curves for two pumps and examine the impact of placing pumps in series and in parallel.
