Pump Performance Testing Facility
This Testing Bench is used to quantify the performance characteristics of both new and used pumps.
A pump test is performed on a new pump to either “size” or “fit” a new pump to a particular application.
This pump test will also assist the technician with failure analysis.
It is important to note that pump tests are preformed using water as the fluid being pumped,

Typical test reports will provide volumetric efficiency and torque at rated pressure.
For Conducting Experiments, speed varies from 10% to 125% of 3600rpm for plotting characteristic graphs. Also operate torque sensor to measure torque and speed at input shaft of the pump, therefore determining horsepower and efficiency.

We utilize custom designed PLC based automated pump testing software This allows all system parameters to be monitored and controlled from a central control station, thus achieving and maintaining specific operating conditions. This enables data from calibrated precision electronic sensors to be collected and recorded for use in determining pump performance.
Standards can be modified to meet specific customer requirements
