The GUNT HM 500.15 - Bypass Flow Meter is designed for installation in the water circuit of the HM 500 trainer. Flow rate measurement is achieved using a combination of an orifice plate flow meter in the main flow and a rotameter in the bypass flow. The orifice plate constricts the main pipe cross-section, increasing flow velocity and creating a pressure drop. This pressure difference generates the bypass flow, which is measured by the rotameter. The flow rate is determined by reading the float position on the rotameter scale.
Product Features
- For integration into the GUNT HM 500 water circuit
- Flow measurement using orifice plate in main flow and rotameter in bypass flow
- Bypass flow created by pressure difference across orifice plate
- Rotameter float indicates flow rate on a calibrated scale
- Rotameter can be rotated to maintain vertical position regardless of installation orientation
- Pressure drop can be measured across the bypass flow meter if installed horizontally
Benefits
- Enables accurate measurement of main and bypass flow rates
- Flexible installation due to rotameter orientation adjustment
- Provides clear visualization of pressure drop and bypass flow principles
- Durable design suitable for laboratory and training use
