Water Hammer Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-FMP-11302
Quick Answer: The Water Hammer Apparatus is a 60 m coil of copper pipe with a solenoid valve at the discharge end, used to measure the pressure fluctuations produced when the valve shuts. An electronic pressure transducer near the valve records them.
Last updated: October 2026
Key Features
- Coil of copper pipe, 60 m long; inlet connects to the water supply
- Solenoid valve at the discharge end; bypass valve discharges to waste at the inlet end
- Adjustable valve downstream of the solenoid valve regulates the mean pipe pressure before shut-off
- Electronic pressure transducer near the valve measures the pressure fluctuations
- Bourdon pressure gauge between the solenoid valve and the downstream control valve shows system pressure and is used to calibrate the transducer

About This Product
Students set the mean pressure, trip the solenoid valve and capture the pressure surge with the transducer to study water hammer in a long pipe. Changing the downstream valve setting lets them repeat the test from different starting pressures. Enquiries from Suriname, Solomon Islands, Peru, Morocco, Botswana and Burundi for the Water Hammer Apparatus receive an export quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the pressure transducer calibrated on the Water Hammer Apparatus?
A Bourdon pressure gauge fitted between the solenoid valve and the downstream control valve shows the system pressure, and students use it to calibrate the transducer.
