5. Max Line Size Possible : 3000mm
6. Sump Dimensions : 50m long x 8 m wide x 7.5 m deep
7. Type of Flow : Direct Pumping
8. Pump Type :Vertical turbine
9. Discharge : 5000 m3/hr,4000 m^3/hr.,3000m^3/hr, 2000 m^3/hr.,1000 m^3/hr.
10. Head : 20m of Water Column
11. Type of Drive : Electrical Motor
12. Power : DG Sets,1250 KVA 2 Nos
13. Uncertainty : +/- 0.5% -
Important Flow Products which can be Calibrated / Tested in this facility include Large Size ( 600mm – 2000mm ) EMF , Ultrasonic Flow Meters , all types of Insertion flow meters , Orifice Plates , Mass flow Meters and all types of Valves. The added advantage of this facility is Pump Testing also can be performed here within a flow range of 2500m^3/HR.
