Multi Pump Test Rig

A mobile self-contained Multi-Pump Test Rig, containing all the services & instrumentation for determining the characteristic curves of eight different pumps at different speeds

For Rotodynamic Pumps:

• Pressure head vs flow
• Pump efficiency vs flow
• Power absorbed vs flow
• For positive displacement pumps:
• Power absorbed vs pressure head
• Flow vs pressure head
• Volumetric efficiency vs pressure head
• Contains five different pump positions (four active at the same time). Digital readout enables mounting of selected pump
• Centrifugal pump and gear pump supplied as standard
• Axial pump, flexible impeller pump, turbine pump, diaphragm pump, plunger pump and a second centrifugal pump are all available as accessories
• Series/parallel pump demonstrations can be performed with the second centrifugal pump option
• Control valve incorporated upstream of each pump (except axial pump) to demonstrate the effect of suction loss on performance
• A PC (not supplied) is used to set the required speed of the pump(s) on test. A separate mimic diagram for the selected pump(s) on test displays the important measured and calculated variables
• Electronic measurement of flow, pressure head, suction head and motor torque
• Optional volumetric flow measurement system for reciprocating pumps
• Data logging and educational software included
