Flow and pressure control system Mod. REGA-F/EV – is a modern educational equipment for studying the flow and pressure control of liquids (water) and gases (air). This system includes four types of flow meters and a closed circuit with a tank and a recycling pump. SCADA software allows for monitoring and control of the system via a computer.

    • Centrifugal pump (Q = 4 m³/h, pressure – 30 m) with stainless steel housing and rotor.
  • Measuring devices:
    • Venturi tube made of transparent Plexiglas®;
    • Calibrated diaphragm made of AISI 304 stainless steel;
    • Electronic magnetic induction flow transmitter (AISI 316) with 4-20 mA output signal;
    • Electronic variable range flow transmitter-indicator (AISI 316), range 40–4000 l/h, 4–20 mA output signal.
  • Control devices:
    • 2 pneumatic pressure control valves (AISI 316) for split-range control;
    • Pneumatic flow control valve (AISI 316, Cv = 5);
    • 3 electro-pneumatic transducers (4–20 mA / 0.2–1 bar);
    • Electronic microprocessor PID controller with LCD display and serial interface.
