FLUMES
Parshall Flume
The Parshall flume, a flow-measuring device, accurately measures water flow in open channels. It has a constriction in the channel that causes a pressure drop, enabling flow rate calculation based on water level height. Additionally, Parshall flumes are widely used in various applications, such as water treatment plants, wastewater treatment plants, and irrigation systems.
They are easy to install and maintain, and they are cost-effective and reliable. However, they may not be suitable for sediment or debris and require proper maintenance to prevent clogging. Therefore, using a Parshall flume for flow measurement is highly recommended.
Palmer Bowlus Flume
Experience the efficient and cost-effective Palmer Bowlus flume, a flow-measuring device for open channels. Named after its inventors, it comprises a rectangular channel with a V-shaped bottom throat section. The stable hydraulic jump ensures accurate flow rate measurement by water level height.
Not only is it easy to install and maintain, but its cost is relatively lower than other flow measurement technologies. Proper maintenance is necessary to prevent clogging, and it may not be suitable for debris or sediment. Therefore, choose the Palmer Bowlus flume for a simple and accurate solution to your flow measurement needs.
BS Flume
The rectangular long-throat flume measures water flow in open channels. It has a rectangular channel with a long, narrow throat section.
The device is accurate, reliable, and easy to install and maintain. It suits various applications. However, it may not be suitable for debris or sediment cases, which can interfere with measurements. The hydraulic jump itself can create turbulence, impacting measurement accuracy.
