Inc. has pumped in excess of 14,500 gallons over the past year
while testing various pumps, system components, material compatibility
and limitations of operation. Our research facility is equipped
with a data acquisition system that allows us to verify flow
rates, related pressures (i.e. suction/discharge), temperatures
and more. We have a piping system that allows us to verify nozzle
performance with 3M™ Novec™ 1230 Fire Protection Fluid
and still recover 90% of the discharged liquid. This keeps testing
costs to a minimum!
Our testing facility provides us with the opportunity
to test the performance of every pump we sell. This allows
us to measure and determine our own performance curves using
3M™ Novec™ 1230 fluid.
