Abstract:

A submersible pump test bench capable of testing multiple lengths of submersible pumps. The test bench includes a series of trolleys that may be moved along, added to, or removed from a rail depending on the length of submersible pump to be tested. The test bench further includes a hose handler for redirecting a length of hose connecting the submersible pump to a broader hydraulic circuit. In certain embodiments, the hose handler includes a rotating sheave or similar structure that redirects the hose back on itself, providing a length-multiplying effect.
