Series and Parallel Configuration Pumps
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-9997
The Series and Parallel Configuration Pumps trainer (SKU JA-FMAHLE-9997), supplied by JaincoLab, shows how two identical centrifugal pumps behave when connected in series and in parallel. Ball valves switch between the two layouts, a transparent intake tank with overflow gives a constant suction head, and manometers read the pressure at the inlet and outlet of each pump. This series and parallel pumps rig delivers up to 21 L/min and 12 m of head.
Specifications
The pump trainer is specified by two centrifugal pumps of 370 W each, a 13 litre tank, PVC pipes, a maximum flow of 21 L/min and a maximum head of 12 m, with outlet pressure ranges of 0 to 2.5 bar and inlet ranges of -1 to 1.5 bar.

Experiments with the series and parallel pumps rig
The trainer is used to plot the head-flow curve of one pump and compare it with the combined curves of two pumps in series, which add head, and in parallel, which add flow.
- Characteristic curve of a single centrifugal pump
- Two pumps in series
- Two pumps in parallel
- Operating point with a system curve
