The test rig is intended to investigate in a reproducible manner whether and how the pump selection/arrangement can affect water delivery parameters can be tested.
In a closed water circuit, two centrifugal pumps or two diaphragm pumps can be flexibly arranged in single, parallel or series operation on a flexibly arranged on a profile plate.
In addition to delivery pressures and flow rates, characteristic curves of the pump performance are recorded via the Fluidlab-PA closed-loop software.
Three shut-off ball valves are provided for isolation of the pump(s) and for adjustment of the pressure downstream of the pump(s) are included.
The performance of the individual experiments can be learned and passed on during Learned and passed on as part of classroom instruction.
In addition to the installation and modification instructions for the pumps and piping the installation of safety precautions ( e.g. overpressure valves) must be observed
