Description

The experimental flume BCI 100 with a closed water circuit has a cross-section of 160x340mm. The length of the experimental section is of 4 m. The side walls of the experimental section are made of transparent glass reinforced , which allows excellent observation of the experiments. All components that come into contact with water are made of corrosion-resistant materials (stainless steel, glass reinforced plastic). The inlet element is designed so that the flow enters the experimental section with very little turbulence.The inclination of the experimental flume can be finely adjusted to allow simulation of slope and to create a uniform flow at a constant discharge depth. A wide selection of models, such as weirs, piers, flow-measuring flumes or a wave generator are available as accessories and ensure a comprehensive programme of experiments. Most models are quickly and safely bolted to the bottom of the experimental section.

The robust design of this device makes it suitable for use in schools.

The equipment is set up on an steel coated frame. The frame is also equipped with adjustable feet with rubber to avoid vibrations. This gives it great strength and a flexibility of integration into your laboratory.

The manufacture of this equipment complies with the European standard for machinery manufacturing.
