Series and Parallel Pumps Demonstration Unit
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-9965
The Series and Parallel Pumps Demonstration Unit (SKU JA-FMAHLE-9965) is an experimental unit for running two centrifugal pumps individually, in series and in parallel. One pump has adjustable speed and the other a fixed speed, and pressure and flow rate are measured and processed on a PC. JaincoLab supplies this series and parallel pumps unit to engineering colleges and polytechnics for hydraulic machines and fluid mechanics practicals.
Specifications
Each pump delivers up to 40 litres per minute and 10 m of head; the two pumps draw 650 W together, the variable-speed pump runs from 0 to 3300 rpm, and the PVC pipework and fittings run from a water tank of about 15 litres.

Experiments on the series and parallel pumps unit
The series and parallel pumps unit shows how connecting two centrifugal pumps in series raises the head while connecting them in parallel raises the flow, and lets students plot and compare the combined characteristic curves in hydraulic machines practicals.
- Individual operation and characteristic curves of each centrifugal pump
- Series operation of the two pumps
- Parallel operation of the two pumps
- Effect of pump speed on performance using the variable-speed pump
