On Site Pump Testing Services

• Thermodynamic Pump Monitoring

• Sound monitoring

• Vibration analysis

Cheval offers the latest on-site thermodynamic pump testing service using state of the art equipment which accurately measures the pump flow, total head and efficiency of the pump. Coupled with the motor power consumption information, test engineer can compare the live data against the OEM data and supply the customer with a comparison report identifying the optimum time for the pump to be either refurbished or replaced. On site testing also include sound vibration analysis of pumps to check for cavitation, unbalance and bearing wear that can affect pump operating efficiency.

An in-depth test report can also be supplied with calculated predictions of pump performance after servicing. The report includes how energy savings can be further enhanced with the application of our Fluiglide energy efficient protective coating system. This report not only identifies when the customer will realize a return on investment, but also highlights the ongoing energy cost reductions of running the pump during the expected operational lifetime.
