The coupling has been deve loped for use with Hartridgc .Series 875, 1100 Mk 2 anc 1150 test stands and is suitabli for testing both in-line and DPi type injector pumps. Two sets o interchangeable coupling jaw! are available; 75mm jaws to pumps with outputs of up t( 100mm'istroke and 90mn jaws for pumps with outputs o up to 175 mm/stroke. Thi clamping mechanism will fi onto the Oldham or CR types o injector pump coupling and ST allowance has been built-in to limited lateral misalignment.
