DESCRIPTION:

The designed motor-driven plunger pump, mounted on a stainless steel plinth with a water reservoir, pulsation damper and pipework for continuous circulation. The pump head, measuring tank, pulsation damper and the water reservoir are manufactured from clear acrylic for maximum visibility. The pump outlet is connected to both a sprung loading valve and a needle valve to investigate different loading characteristics. A pressure relief valve protects the operator and the equipment. An additional valve can be used to isolate or include the pulsation damper, allowing the effect of damping to be investigated

Electronic sensors measure the instantaneous cylinder pressure within the pump, the pump displacement and the cumulative flow over a period of time.
