Coupled Tanks Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-CEP-11336
Quick Answer: The Coupled Tanks Apparatus is a control engineering trainer in which a variable-speed pump forces water into one tank, with a valve linking it to a second tank for two-tank experiments. The basic control problem is to regulate the level in one tank by varying the pump speed.

Key Features
- Variable-speed pump forces water into the left-hand tank
- Valve connects a second tank when needed for two-tank experiments
- Rotameter-type flow meter shows the flow rate; an electronic flow meter measures it
- Level sensor in each tank with an output proportional to the water level
- Scale on each tank for checking the level-sensor calibration
- User guide covers system modelling, steady-state error analysis, transient response and Ziegler/Nichols tuning

About This Product
The apparatus covers basic and advanced control engineering, from static and dynamic system behaviour to the liquid level and fluid transport problems met in process control. It can also be used to try other strategies such as fuzzy logic. The Coupled Tanks Apparatus can be supplied on export terms to Maldives, Lebanon, Equatorial Guinea, Fiji and Somalia.
Frequently Asked Questions
What experiments are in the Coupled Tanks Apparatus user guide?
System modelling from static and transient measurements, steady-state error analysis, transient response studies and Ziegler/Nichols tuning methods.
Can the apparatus be used with one tank only?
Yes. The valve between the tanks connects the second tank only when it is needed for two-tank experiments.
