Submersible Pump Test Rig (Product Code: SLE/MCE/48) is a variable-speed pump test set-up used to determine the head, flow and speed characteristics of a submersible pump in mechanical engineering and polytechnic laboratories. It handles up to 70 lpm and 7 m head, with a suction vacuum gauge, a delivery pressure gauge, a proximity-sensor RPM indicator and a measuring tank for timed flow readings. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

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.
The Submersible Pump Test Rig is produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited under its ScienceLab brand, and the company is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the rig. The frame, tank, pipework and instrument panel are made and assembled at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India.
Because the rig is configured by its maker, questions on the drive, gauges or sensors are answered first-hand, and spares or additional units can be requested from the same team — ask us. Engineering colleges, dealers and importers are supplied factory-direct; more on the ScienceLab company profile.

What does the Submersible Pump Test Rig measure?
The Submersible Pump Test Rig measures suction vacuum on the inlet line, delivery pressure on the outlet line and pump speed with a proximity-sensor RPM indicator, while flow rate is found with the measuring tank and a stopwatch.
What are the maximum flow and head?
The Submersible Pump Test Rig is rated for a maximum flow rate of 70 lpm and a maximum head of 7 m, with a power rating of 0.75 kW on a 230 V, single-phase, 50 Hz supply.
How is the pump speed varied?
The Submersible Pump Test Rig has a variable-speed drive. Its description lists a DC motor with a thyristor-controlled DC drive and also an asynchronous motor with a frequency converter, so please confirm the drive arrangement when you request a quotation.
How is the pump head changed during a test?
On the Submersible Pump Test Rig, a ball valve on the outlet side is used to adjust the head. Closing it in steps raises the delivery pressure and reduces flow, giving the points needed for a head-flow curve.
How big is the Submersible Pump Test Rig?
The Submersible Pump Test Rig measures 1000 x 500 x 700 mm and weighs about 80 kg, so it fits in a standard pump or hydraulics laboratory with access to a 230 V, single-phase socket.
Who manufactures the Submersible Pump Test Rig?
The Submersible Pump Test Rig is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotations come directly from the manufacturer.
