Hydrological Cycle Apparatusaratus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-WT-13975
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Hydrological Cycle Apparatusaratus (Product ID: 13975), part of the Water Treatment range under Water and Sanitation equipment, a large floor-standing unit for hydrology experiments covering rainfall, runoff, groundwater flow, and well dynamics.
Note on the product name: this listing's name as recorded in our catalog reads "Apparatusaratus" — this appears to be a source-data typo for "Apparatus," but we have not silently corrected it; please confirm the exact product name with our team when ordering.
Quick Answer
This hydrological cycle apparatus is a large stainless steel catchment tank (2000mm x 1000mm working section) with a graded sand bed, an 8-nozzle rainfall simulator, two groundwater wells with 20 piezometer tappings, and end weirs, letting students study rainfall-runoff relationships, groundwater dynamics, and well hydraulics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What experiments can this apparatus perform?
Rainfall/runoff relationship studies and runoff hydrograph determination, groundwater flow and interflow investigation, well hydraulics (cone of depression, drawdown curves), and moving-storm simulation studying river feature development over time.
How is rainfall simulated?
Via 8 spray nozzles in two banks of 4, with a valve controlling how many nozzles operate to simulate rainfall over all or half the catchment, including a moving-storm effect.
How is groundwater studied?
Through two wells with stainless steel mesh sleeves and 20 piezometer tappings connected to a water manometer, allowing determination of the water table profile and cone of depression.
Is "Apparatusaratus" the correct product name?
Our source data lists this product as "Apparatusaratus," which appears to be a typo for "Apparatus." We have not corrected this ourselves — please confirm the exact naming with our team when ordering.
Do you supply this equipment for institutional or export orders outside India?
Yes. Indian Lab Suppliers quotes equipment for institutional and tender buyers across export markets — see the Tenders page for documentation requirements.
