The setup is designed to study the performance of reciprocating pump multi stage.
Set up consists of a 3 stage reciprocating pump coupled with electrical motor, supply tank, measuring tank & pipe fittings for closed loop water circulation. Pressure and Vacuum gauges are connected on delivery and suction side of pump for the purpose of measurement.
The flow rate of water is measured using measuring tank and stop watch provided.
