Series and Parallel Pumps Demonstration Unit

Series and Parallel Pumps Demonstration Unit

• A small-scale series/parallel pump demonstration unit, comprising of a water reservoir, two pumps, control valves and interconnecting pipework, all mounted on a stainless steel base.
• Equipped with electronic measurement sensors for pump head pressure (2 off), suction, flow- rate and water temperature.
• Transparent pump volutes for visibility.
• Inlet valve throttling demonstrates air release.
• Supplied with different easily interchangeable impellers.
• Capable of being linked to a PC (not supplied) via a dedicated interface console.
• Supplied with software providing full instructions for setting up, operating, calibrating and performing the teaching exercises. Facilities for logging, processing and displaying data graphically.
• Full theoretical back-up together with a student questions and answers session.

Capabilities:

-Demonstration of either series, parallel or single pump operation
-Measurement of constant-speed pump performance, including production of characteristic curves (one pump)
-Comparison of head-flow characteristics with single pump operation, at inherent speed
-Investigation of impeller styles
-Comparison of student calculations with computer results

Technical Specification:

• Max Flow Rate: 2.2 l/s
• (parallel pumping, both pumps 50 Hz)
• Max Head: 6.0 m (single pump)
• 12.0m (series)
• Max pump speed 1800 rpm
• (pump1)
• 1500 rpm
• (pump 2 nominal)
• Motor Power rating 250W
