Patterson Pump Company Approved through Hydraulic Institute’s Pump Test Lab Approval Program

Parsippany, NJ, April 11, 2019 – The Hydraulic Institute introduces member company, Patterson Pump Company, as the latest company to have their pump test laboratory approved through the HI Pump Test Lab Approval Program. The approved pump test lab is located at 2129 Ayersville Road, Toccoa, GA.

The HI program assists pump OEMs and other pump test laboratories improve their current laboratory procedures and policies by working with an experienced third-party auditor to develop and maintain accurate, uniform and repeatable pump testing protocols. The program also helps participating organizations adhere to the requirements of the international test laboratory accreditation standard (ISO 17025) concerning test measurement equipment.
