Reciprocating Pump Demonstration Unit | FluidoSurge-X 264
A CE-certified pump test unit for investigating flow-head characteristics, efficiency at various speeds, and pump performance curves, manufactured by Scientico India to ISO 9001:2015 standards. Supplied with calibration certificate, operation manual, and complete export documentation. Designed for Fluid Mechanics laboratories in engineering colleges and technical institutions.
The Reciprocating Pump Demonstration Unit FluidoSurge-X 264 is a laboratory apparatus designed to study the operating characteristics of a reciprocating pump. Manufactured by SCIENTICO, the unit enables experimental determination of pump performance, pressure behavior, and pulsation effects. It is intended for instructional use in fluid mechanics and hydraulic machinery laboratories. Optional data acquisition software supports detailed analysis.
Product Overview
FluidoSurge-X 264 consists of a reciprocating pump driven by an electric motor, connected to a pipe system with an integrated service tank. The system allows measurement of delivery pressure and cylinder pressure during operation. A pressure retention valve maintains constant system pressure, while an air vessel can be used to damp pressure pulsations. Volumetric flow measurement is carried out using a compensation tank, enabling accurate performance evaluation.
