SIMFLO provides locked rotor reverse flow friction testing to establish pressure loss curves for bowl assemblies used in Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) wells. This test supports applications where the bowl serves as a flow restriction device, replacing a dedicated valve, to control recharge flow and prevent damage to the well casing and surrounding strata. The results help define appropriate safe recharge parameters.

Net Positive Suction Head Testing
SIMFLO provides specialized Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) testing for vertical turbine pumps to identify their cavitation point. This testing assesses suction capability under varying flow conditions, helping identify design, installation, or operational issues. By confirming the pump operates within safe NPSH limits, SIMFLO helps boost efficiency, minimize downtime, and extend pump life—ensuring your system runs reliably and at peak performance.
