    HM 150

    BASIC HYDRAULICS BENCH

    Technical description
    The Basic Hydraulics Bench HM 150 and the
    various ancillary modules available form a comprehensive laboratory facility which enables a
    detailed Mechanics of Fluids Laboratory.

    All rights reserved, G.U.N.T. Gertebau, Barsbttel, Germany 02/2010

    The hydraulics bench unit provides the basic


    services for the pumping and volumetric
    measurement of the water supply with which all
    the additional accessories and experiments are
    used.
    The working surface of the unit is in fibreglass,
    moulded to provide a recessed area on which to
    mount experiments. An integral weir tank is provided along with a volumetric measuring tank.
    The measuring tank is stepped to enable for accurate measuring of both high and low flow rates. A
    level indicator allows convenient read out of the
    flow.
    The measuring tank discharges into a fibreglass
    sump tank via a valve. Overflow pipe is provided.
    An electric motor drives a submersible motor
    driven pump which delivers water to the outlet at
    the working surface for connection to the individual experiments.
    Materials used in the bench construction and its
    modules have been carefully selected in order to
    minimise corrosion problems.
    The entire unit is self-contained and mobile.
    For low volumetric measurement use the 2ltr
    measuring cup.

    Safety Instructions

    2.1

    Risk of Death or Injury

    WARNING
    Dangerous voltage
    When reaching into open control cabinet, there is
    a risk of electric shock.
    Before opening, disconnect mains.
    Only trained electricians to do service and
    maintenance work.
    Protect control cabinet against splash water.

    2.2

    Hazards to the Unit and its Function

    NOTICE
    Frost damages are possible while storing the
    device.
    Store the device in a frost-free location.
    When danger of frost, empty the water tank via
    drain cock.

    NOTICE
    Operating the submersible motor driven pump
    without water leads to destruction of pump.
    Never operate submersible motor driven pump
    without water.

    2 Safety Instructions

    BASIC HYDRAULICS BENCH

    Commissioning, Maintenance and Decommissioning


    Commissioning
    Set up device on a even surface.
    Fill sump tank with tap water until the water
    level is 10cm below edge of sump tank.
    Connect electric power supply.

    All rights reserved, G.U.N.T. Gertebau, Barsbttel, Germany 02/2010

    Screw the discharge cap or a hose at the end


    of the discharge pipe.
    Switch on main power switch.
    Switch on pump.
    Open flow adjustment valve carefully.

    Maintenance
    Replace the water weekly.

    Decommissioning
    In case of extended operation pauses, completely empty the water tank via the drain cock.

    3 Commissioning, Maintenance and Decommissioning

    HM 150

    BASIC HYDRAULICS BENCH

    Determine Volumetric Flow Rate


    To do so, use stopwatch to establish time t
    required for raising the level in the volumetric tank
    of the HM 150 from 20ltr to 30ltr.
    Close the outlet valve.
    Read the actual volume at the remote sight
    gauge.

    All rights reserved, G.U.N.T. Gertebau, Barsbttel, Germany 02/2010

    The volume flow-rate is calculated as

    V
    V = -------t
