Computer Controlled Multipump Testing Bench (2 types of pumps)

Details

The Computer Controlled Multipump Testing Bench (2 types of pumps), "PB2C", designed by EDIBON, allows the students to study the operating characteristics of the centrifugal and gear pumps. This unit allows to control and to measure the most representative parameters of the pumps. The measurements that can be taken using the unit are: admission and discharge pressure of the pump, impelled water flow, torque and turning speed of the pump and the manometric height, the hydraulic and mechanic power and the efficiency can be determined. The unit is mounted on a structure with a working surface covered by a plastic sheet. Two different parts can be distinguished in the unit: the pumps, with their motors, connections and flexible hoses and the tanks to store and recycle water, with their measuring elements. The minimum supply includes two types of pumps: one centrifugal pump and one gear pump. There are several optional pumps (not included in the minimum supply) that can be connected to the unit through valves and flexible hoses in order to demonstrate the operating behavior of these pumps. Each pump is activated by a separate motor which allows the direct measurement of the torque.
