FAQ's of Channel Point Apparatus:
Q: How is the Channel Point Apparatus set up and operated in a laboratory environment?
A: The apparatus is placed on a table-top surface and connected to a power supply (230V, 50Hz single phase). Attach the inlet and outlet hoses via the hose nipple fittings, fill the stainless steel reservoir with suitable fluids like water or light laboratory liquids, and use the manual flow control to start and adjust the experimental flow through the marked glass channel.
Q: What fluids can be safely used with this apparatus?
A: The Channel Point Apparatus is specifically designed for water and light laboratory liquids, ensuring accurate measurement and safe operation. High-viscosity or chemically aggressive fluids are not recommended, as they may affect accuracy or damage internal components.
Q: When should this apparatus be used during hydraulics experimentation?
A: This device is ideal for laboratory experiments demonstrating flow behavior, velocity profiles, and fluid mechanics principles. It can be employed at various stages of research or teaching where visual observation and measurement of liquid flow are required.
Q: Where is the measuring scale located and how does it enhance accuracy?
A: The measuring scale is clearly marked directly on the borosilicate glass channel, allowing users to obtain precise flow level readings at a glance. This design integrates measurement and observation for streamlined data collection and analysis.
Q: What process should be followed for cleaning and maintaining the apparatus?
A: After each experiment, drain the fluid from the reservoir, flush the system with clean water, and wipe the glass components with a soft cloth. Periodic inspection of hose connections and fittings helps maintain optimal performance and safety.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this apparatus for laboratory studies?
A: The main advantages include corrosion resistance, easy operation, accurate measurement, quiet performance, and the ability to clearly observe fluid dynamics through the transparent glass channel. Its portable and robust design suits a variety of educational and experimental applications.
