Air Blower Test Setup (Product Code: SLE/MCE/57) is a radial-fan test rig used to measure the flow rate, pressure head and performance of an air blower in mechanical engineering and fluid machinery laboratories. As engineering lab equipment for colleges and polytechnics, it stands out for measuring airflow four ways — venturi nozzle, orifice plate, inlet cone and travelling pitot tube — against twin inclined water manometers. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Fan type | Radial fan: air is drawn in axially to the drive shaft, deflected by 90° by the rotating rotor and discharged radially |
| Maximum flow rate (unchoked) | Over 12 m³/min |
| Maximum head (fully choked) | Over 80 mm water |
| Inlet duct | With flow straightener |
| Outlet duct | With flow straightener and damper |
| Airflow measurement | Venturi nozzle, orifice plate, inlet cone and travelling pitot tube using an inclined water manometer |
| Differential pressure measurement | Twin inclined water manometers, 0–450 mm with 1 mm graduation; multiple slope 1:10, 1:5, 1:2 and 1:1 |
| Accessories | Thermometer and barometer |
| Power supply | 220 V, single phase, 50 Hz |
| Product code | SLE/MCE/57 |
| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
Students run the blower at a series of damper settings, from fully open to fully choked, and record volume flow and pressure at each point to plot the fan characteristic (head against flow). The rig spans an unchoked flow of over 12 m³/min and a fully choked head of over 80 mm of water, so the whole curve can be drawn in one practical. Because the same airflow can be read on the venturi nozzle, orifice plate, inlet cone and travelling pitot tube, it also doubles as a lesson in comparing flow-measurement devices.
The thermometer and barometer let students correct air density for room conditions before calculating flow. Choose the manometer slope (1:10 down to 1:1) to suit the size of the reading, level the manometers before each run and let the fan settle after every damper change. Radial fans of this kind move gases where pressure differences are moderate, which makes the setup a good fit for ventilation and air-handling topics.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of the Air Blower Test Setup. The rig is made at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, rather than sourced from a trader, and goes factory-direct to engineering colleges, polytechnics, dealers and importers in India and international markets.

What flow rate and head does the Air Blower Test Setup reach?
The Air Blower Test Setup delivers a maximum flow rate of over 12 m³/min with the outlet unchoked and a maximum head of over 80 mm of water when fully choked, giving students a wide range of operating points for the fan curve.
How is airflow measured on the Air Blower Test Setup?
Airflow on the Air Blower Test Setup can be measured with a venturi nozzle, an orifice plate, an inlet cone and a travelling pitot tube read on an inclined water manometer, so the methods can be compared against each other in one session.
What range do the manometers of the Air Blower Test Setup cover?
The Air Blower Test Setup uses twin inclined water manometers with a 0–450 mm scale and 1 mm graduation. Their multiple slope settings of 1:10, 1:5, 1:2 and 1:1 magnify small pressure differences for easier reading.
What power supply does the Air Blower Test Setup need?
The Air Blower Test Setup runs on a 220 V, 50 Hz single-phase supply. If your laboratory uses a different voltage or frequency, mention it in your enquiry so the requirement can be discussed before a quotation is issued.
Who manufactures the Air Blower Test Setup?
The Air Blower Test Setup is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations, spares enquiries and repeat orders are handled directly by the manufacturer.
Is a calibration certificate available for the Air Blower Test Setup?
Calibration-certificate availability for the Air Blower Test Setup and its manometers should be discussed with us when you request a quotation. Please mention the documentation your institution needs through our contact page.
Do you supply the Air Blower Test Setup in bulk or for export?
Yes. The Air Blower Test Setup is supplied to engineering colleges, polytechnics, training institutes and dealers across India and international markets. For bulk or export orders, share the quantity and destination so we can prepare the quotation.
