Pump Performance Testing Services

On site pump performance testing can often provide valuable information regarding the actual point that the pump is operating at on its Q.H. Curve (head v flow). Pumps are normally tested by the OEM against a client issued specification. This specification is often modelled or calculated rather than being an actual measurement of the installation system curve. On site testing offers an early opportunity of establishing any discrepancies between the specification as issued to the pump OEM and the actual characteristics of the system as constructed. On site fixed installation condition monitoring packages are not always set up to measure actual pump performance rather they tend to concentrate on the machines mechanical condition and deterioration rather than “is the pump operating at B.E.P.” or is it in hydraulic distress? SPP Energy offer on-site performance testing using conventional measuring techniques.
