FM 230 Water Hammer Apparatus
Self-contained with hydraulics bench, to demonstrate effects of pipe surge and water hammer. 2 separate straight pipes with constant head tank. Pipe surge uses clear acrylic shaft for gradual velocity change (pressure rise) and oscillations on slow valve closing. Water hammer uses quick closing valve, 2 pressure sensors; dual beam oscilloscope and printer to demonstrate sudden rise in pressure on quick closing valve. PC-data acquisition is optional. 220V, 50Hz
