Diy flow bench manometer.
The flow performance fr4 flow receptacle left measures the test pressure commonly known as the depression and channels the air into or out of the fe2 0 flow element right.
The fr4 is mounted under a 4 5 hole in the bench surface.
Establishing the numbers step 1.
This flow bench uses a shop vacuum for estimated flow data.
Put the head on the bench all holes plugged up except the port.
Record the reading shown on the flow scale.
In this episode we show you how to build your own flowbench from common building materials.
Adjust the vacuum bleed to the drop you want in my case 7 water.
While using a shop vacuum to move air through the flow bench the fp1 processor estimates the flow data to 28 wc test pressure in real time as the flow test is being performed.

Calibration test confirms the accuracy of the bench for cfm measurement through a cylinder port.
Make sure your bench is sealed so no leakage takes place except through the test piece.
Adapter plates available from flow performance adapts cylinder heads to the receptacle.
Start with a reading on the manometer with the plate completely blocked off for a zero flow depression test.
Repeat for all valve openings.
