What Is the Demonstration Francis Turbine Used For?

Francis turbines drive most medium-head hydropower stations, and this bench-scale version lets students follow the energy conversion step by step. Water enters through the spiral housing, is accelerated and turned by the adjustable guide vanes, and gives up both pressure and kinetic energy in the impeller — which is what makes it a reaction turbine rather than an impulse machine.

In a typical test the band brake is tightened in steps while students log spring balance forces, speed from the non-contact sensor and inlet pressure from the manometer. Torque times speed gives shaft power, and dividing by hydraulic power gives efficiency, so curves of power and efficiency against speed can be drawn for several guide vane angles between 0 and 20°. It is a compact choice among engineering lab equipment in India for hydraulic machines practicals where floor space is limited.

What Is the Axial Flow Pump Test Rig Used For?

Where large volumes of water must be lifted only a short height — drainage systems, wastewater treatment plants and cooling water supply — engineers choose axial flow pumps. Unlike a centrifugal pump, the propeller builds pressure the way an aerofoil produces lift, with water passing straight through the impeller along the shaft axis. This rig lets students see how that design trades head for flow.

By logging inlet and outlet pressure together with electromagnetic flow readings at a series of operating points, students plot the head-flow characteristic and compare it with the steeper curves of centrifugal pumps. Because the pump is not self-priming, the propeller must stay covered by water: fill the 160 L tank before switching on and keep the level up during tests. The water temperature reading helps when calculating fluid properties for each run.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • Electrical supply: the rig is specified for 230 V, 50 Hz, single phase.
  • Installation space for the 1110 x 800 x 1380 mm frame, which weighs approx. 154 kg before the tank is filled.
  • Number of rigs and delivery location, in India or overseas.

OEM Manufacturer

The Axial Flow Pump Test Rig comes from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which uses the brand name ScienceLab and is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the rig. Frame, pipework, tank and instrument mounting are built at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India.

What Is the Francis Turbine Trainer Used For?

This trainer brings the working conditions of a small hydro set into the laboratory. The pump, running at a speed chosen on the frequency converter, supplies water at the required inlet pressure; the turbine drives an asynchronous machine working as a generator, whose pendulum-mounted housing and force sensor give torque directly. Speed, pressures, temperature and flow are all recorded by sensors.

Students change the guide vane setting between 0 and 23° to alter the angle of attack, flow cross-section and turbine output, then map torque, power and efficiency across the speed range to produce characteristic and hill-chart style curves. The transparent operating area makes the flow through the guide vanes and rotor visible while this happens. As lab equipment for technical institutes and universities with a hydropower or renewable energy syllabus, it supports project work as well as routine practicals.

What Is the Gear Pump Test Rig Used For?

Gear pumps move oil in hydraulic power packs, lubrication systems and fuel transfer because they deliver a fixed volume per revolution and cope well with high-viscosity fluids. Inside this rig, one gear is driven and the other turns in mesh with it; liquid is carried round in the spaces between consecutive teeth and forced out as the teeth re-engage, all clearly visible through the acrylic pump head.

Students set a series of speeds on the inverter and follow the software as it logs flow rate, motor shaft power, pump speed and the two efficiencies at each operating point. The results show classic positive displacement behaviour: flow stays close to proportional to speed, while volumetric efficiency reveals how much liquid leaks back internally. It is compact engineering educational equipment in India's mechanical labs, and its output is noticeably smoother than a reciprocating pump's.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • Whether a computer for the display software should be included, or will be provided by your laboratory.
  • Electrical supply at the bench: 230 V, single phase for the 250 W motor.
  • Number of rigs for the student groups in each practical session.

What Is the Submersible Pump Test Rig Used For?

Submersible pumps are the workhorses of borewells, sumps and dewatering jobs, and engineers need to know how their delivery changes with head and speed. On this rig students close the outlet ball valve in steps to raise the head, and at each setting record suction vacuum, delivery pressure, pump speed and the time taken to fill a known volume in the measuring tank.

Repeating the series at several motor speeds produces a family of head-flow curves, and comparing them shows how flow and head scale with rotational speed. Total head is found by combining the delivery pressure and suction vacuum readings. For colleges building a pump laboratory in India, it is a practical, mid-sized piece of lab equipment for college practicals that runs on a single-phase supply.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • The drive arrangement you require, since both a thyristor-controlled DC drive and a frequency converter are described for this rig.
  • Whether you prefer gauges or electronic sensors for the suction and delivery pressure readings.

What Is the Reciprocating Pump Test Apparatus Used For?

Reciprocating pumps deliver high pressure at low flow — think of pressure washers, dosing systems and boiler feed — but their output comes in pulses. This apparatus makes the full pumping cycle measurable: the angle sensor on the piston rod gives the cylinder volume at every instant, and the cylinder pressure sensor records the matching pressure, so the software can draw the intake and discharge strokes as a p-V diagram.

Students watch the piston through the transparent housing, then use the needle and overflow valves to set different flow rates and heads and compare how the diagram changes. Comparing the pulsating cylinder pressure with the outlet pressure trace shows how the air vessel smooths the delivery. The USB link and included software make it a straightforward piece of computer-linked engineering lab equipment in India for both lab classes and project reports.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • Mains supply: 230 V, 50 Hz is standard; 230 V, 60 Hz and 120 V, 60 Hz single-phase versions are also listed.

What Is the Pelton Turbine Test Rig Used For?

Pelton wheels are chosen for high-head, low-flow hydro sites, and their operating principle is easy to see on this rig. The water jet is accelerated in the nozzle, strikes the buckets tangentially and is turned back by about 180°, handing its momentum to the wheel. Through the transparent cover students can watch the jet split in each bucket as the needle opens or closes the nozzle.

A standard test holds the nozzle setting constant while the band brake is tightened step by step; the spring balance difference gives brake force, the non-contact sensor gives speed, and the product of torque and speed gives brake power. Plotting power and torque against speed shows the peak near half the jet velocity, and repeating at other needle positions shows part-load behaviour. The 0.2 N resolution of the force balance helps students capture small changes at light load.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is how Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited trades, and the company is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the Pelton Turbine Test Rig. The wheel housing, nozzle assembly, brake arrangement and frame are made at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and each rig leaves the factory ready for laboratory installation.

Institutions, dealers and importers buy direct from the manufacturer, so replacement brake bands, spring balances or a spare nozzle needle can be requested from the people who built the rig — just ask us. Find out more on the ScienceLab company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Pelton Turbine Test Rig measure?
The Pelton Turbine Test Rig measures brake force on spring balances with a 0 to 20 N x 0.2 N range, wheel speed from 0 to 2000 rpm with a non-contact sensor, and water pressure on a 0 to 25 m H2O gauge.

How is the water flow to the wheel controlled?
On the Pelton Turbine Test Rig, the nozzle needle is adjusted to change the nozzle cross-section and therefore the flow rate. This lets students compare turbine performance at full and part flow with the same wheel.

What size is the Pelton wheel?
The Pelton Turbine Test Rig uses a Pelton wheel of 123 mm diameter with 16 buckets. The buckets deflect the water jet by approximately 180°, transferring the impulse of the jet to the wheel.

What is the brake power of the rig?
The Pelton Turbine Test Rig is specified with a brake power of 10 W. Brake power is calculated from the band brake torque, found from the spring balance readings, and the wheel speed measured by the non-contact sensor.

What supplies does the Pelton Turbine Test Rig need?
The Pelton Turbine Test Rig requires a 230 V, 50 Hz, single-phase power supply. The water supply arrangement for your laboratory should be confirmed at quotation, so describe your set-up on the contact page.

Who manufactures the Pelton Turbine Test Rig?
The Pelton Turbine Test Rig is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotations are issued directly by the manufacturer.

What Is the Multi Pump Test Rig Used For?

In water treatment, chemical dosing and food processing, several liquids often have to be pumped in a fixed proportion, and multi-head pumps sharing one drive are a common way to do it. This rig lets students test how well that proportion holds. Each head carries water from the feed tank into its own scaled tank, so the delivered volume of every head can be read at the same time.

Students first set a common stroke rate at the switch box and trim the stroke of each head to reach a chosen ratio. They then raise the counter pressure on one head with its overflow valve, watch the delivery and intake manometers, and see how its flow — and therefore the mixing ratio — drifts. As lab equipment for technical institutes, it gives students a clear, hands-on link between pump theory and real dosing practice.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • Electrical supply: 230 V, 50 Hz, single phase.
  • Floor or bench space for the 1250 x 500 x 950 mm unit, approx. 90 kg.
  • Confirmation of the manometer arrangement on the intake and delivery sides for your syllabus.
  • Number of rigs and delivery location.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Multi Pump Test Rig demonstrate?
The Multi Pump Test Rig demonstrates how a pump with three heads behaves, and in particular how counter pressure set on each head affects its flow rate and the mixing ratio between the heads.

How are the three pump heads adjusted?
On the Multi Pump Test Rig, a common stroke rate of 0 to 100 strokes per minute is set for all three heads at the switch box, while the stroke of each head is adjusted individually. Three overflow valves set counter pressure between 2 and 6 bar.

How is the flow of each head measured?
Each head of the Multi Pump Test Rig delivers water from the 60 L feed tank into a tank with a scale, and the level readings of 0 to 20 cm give the volume pumped. Each head delivers from 0 to 18 L/h.

What pressure ranges do the manometers cover?
The Multi Pump Test Rig measures delivery-side pressure from 0 to 10 bar and intake-side pressure from -1 to 0 bar for each of its three heads, so students can relate flow changes directly to the pressures acting on each head.

What are the size and power requirements?
The Multi Pump Test Rig measures 1250 x 500 x 950 mm, weighs approximately 90 kg and runs on a 230 V, 50 Hz, single-phase supply. Its maximum head is approximately 10 m and maximum suction head approximately 3 m.

Who manufactures the Multi Pump Test Rig?
