Centrifugal Pump Test Rig
Overview
The Centrifugal Pump Test Rig is a dedicated fluid mechanics and hydraulic lab equipment designed to study the complete performance characteristics of centrifugal pumps. This trainer is widely used in I.T.I., engineering colleges, technical institutes, and research laboratories where students learn how centrifugal pumps function under different load conditions. With this centrifugal pump trainer, users can determine discharge, head, input power, output power, and overall efficiency, making it a vital pump test rig educational setup for practical learning.
By using this centrifugal pump lab equipment, students get hands-on training that complements theoretical knowledge, enabling them to understand real-world applications in water supply, irrigation, and industrial pumping systems.
Product Description
The centrifugal pump test rig with control panel is carefully designed with a single-stage centrifugal pump, driven by an electric motor and supported by a durable MS powder-coated frame. It includes suction and delivery piping, valves, measuring tanks, sump tanks, vacuum gauges, and bourdon tube pressure gauges, allowing precise performance testing. The pump test rig educational setup comes with a control panel that includes an MCB, starter, and indicators for safe operation.
Students can conduct experiments to obtain pump characteristic curves, analyze pump efficiency at different flow rates, and understand concepts like frictional losses in piping systems. This centrifugal pump experimental setup for labs is suitable for repeated use, with an option for transparent piping for demonstration purposes.
Whether in fluid mechanics laboratories or hydraulic engineering labs, this centrifugal pump demonstration unit is highly reliable, easy to operate, and ideal for understanding pump behavior in real-world conditions.
