Pump Performance Testing – How do your pumps really perform?
Pump Performance Assessment | What Head and Flow Reveal
At AVT Reliability, we carry out pump performance tests to help clients understand how their pumps are operating, assessing real world performance against design expectations.
These tests measure head pressure versus flow rate and plot the results as a pump performance curve, which is compared with the manufacturer’s theoretical curve. This gives a clear picture of real world pump efficiency versus the theoretical optimum. Significant divergence suggests wear, damage, or system issues that need attention.
Real world validation
Ensures pump performance aligns with design specs
Regulatory compliance
Meets UK HSE and NFPA safety standards
Early fault detection
Identifies leaks, wear, cavitation risk, or system issues
Safety assurance
Peace of mind that fire pumps will perform under emergency demand
If you are ensuring fire pump compliance or want to optimise pump reliability, our team is ready to help. Contact us to arrange pump performance testing or fire pump inspections so we can maintain compliance, reliability, and confidence.
