Single stage Centrifugal pump test rig

Single stage Centrifugal pump test rig Single stage Centrifugal pump test rig The present Centrifugal Pump Test Rig is a self-contained unit operated on closed circuit basis containing a sump tank. The set-up consists of a Centrifugal pump coupled with an AC Motor. Flow of water is measured by using measuring tank and stopwatch. Vacuum gauge is fitted on suction line and Pressure gauge is fitted on delivery line to measure the pressure. Learning Objectives/Experiments: To determine total head, overall efficiency and pump efficiency of the centrifugal pump. To plot Head vs Discharge, Pump efficiency vs Discharge. Required for Operation: Electric supply: Provide 230 +/- 10 VAC, 50 Hz, single phase electric supply with proper earthling. (Neutral â???? Earth voltage less than 5 VAC.), 5A, three pin socket with switch for pump. Water supply Floor drain Floor area required : 2.0m * 1.0 m Technical Specifications: Pump : 1 HP capacity, 2800 rpm speed , head 12 meter ( max. )Kirloskar maker. Drive : 1 HP motor, having step cone pulley for three different speeds. Sump Tank : Capacity 120 Ltrs. (approx.), ( Stainless Steel ) Measuring Tank : Capacity 60 Ltrs. (approx.), ( Stainless Steel ) Water flow : clear water Pressure Gauge : Bourdon type Stop watch : electronic The whole set-up is ingeniously designed and schematically arranged on a powder-coated rigid structure Control Panel: Digital RPM indicator with proximity sensor. Electronic energy meter Standard make On/Off switch, Mains Indicator etc. Scope of Delivery: 1 Self Contained "Centrifugal pump Test Rig" Apparatus 1 Instruction Manual consisting of experimental procedures, block diagram etc.
