Flygt A-C Custom Pump Engineered Pump Test Facility
Jan. 25, 2019
Xylem's Flygt brand is focused on performance.That is why we do more than manufacture pumps at our plant in Pewaukee, Wis.; we test them there, too. By investing in exclusive in-house testing capabilities, we can test some of the world’s largest pumps. As a result, we can verify the performance and energy efficiency of these pumps for a guarantee.
At the center of the test facility is a 440,000-gal (1,665-cu-meter) wet pit area designed for testing the largest pumps. Running alongside this is a dry pit test area, a bank of guide rails for submersible pump testing and an aboveground dry pit test area for conducting semi-closed loop tests on pumps up to 16 in. (40 mm). These facilities allow Flygt to test in accordance with the Hydraulic Institute and ISO standards, and/or any contract-specific requirements.
