Our Service

Pheasants International provides equipment performance testing services in Pakistan for chillers, air handling units, pumps, cooling towers and boilers.
Nameplate data tells you what a machine was sold as. Field testing tells you what it is doing now — on your water, at your load, in Pakistani ambient conditions, after however many years of service.
That gap matters here more than in most markets. Ambient temperatures above 45°C force compressors to work harder and cut available capacity. Dust loads coils and filters faster than design assumptions allow. Grid voltage fluctuation affects motor speed and current draw. A machine rated at European test conditions will not deliver those numbers in Lahore in June.

Benefits

  • Warranty claims supported with evidence — an independent measured test
  • Fouling caught early — rising approach temperature is the first measurable sign of lost capacity
  • Oversized pumps identified — a continuous and avoidable energy cost
  • Boiler fuel savings — combustion tuning is among the cheapest corrections available
  • Replace only what needs replacing — measured condition beats assumption
  • Disputes settled — a written independent test ends arguments a spec sheet cannot
  • Baseline established for future performance tracking

How we work

Collect

Nameplate data, design duty, manufacturer curves, commissioning records

Instrument

Calibrated measurement installed at the correct points for each machine

Test at load

Measured under real operating conditions, not artificial ones

Calculate

Efficiency, capacity, approach temperatures, combustion efficiency

Compare

Measured performance against rated duty at the same operating point

  • Tested under real load and real ambient, which is where machines actually fail
  • Independent of the supplier — essential for a warranty claim to be accepted
  • Complete plant coverage — chiller, tower, pump, AHU and boiler in one engagement

  • Root cause identified, not just the shortfall recorded
  • Feeds directly into energy audit and retro-commissioning work

Frequently Asked Questions

What is equipment performance testing?

Equipment performance testing measures the actual delivered output and efficiency of installed HVAC plant under real operating conditions and compares it against design duty, manufacturer curves and warranty conditions.

Which company provides chiller performance testing in Pakistan?

Pheasants International provides field performance testing of chillers, AHUs, pumps, cooling towers and boilers across Pakistan, measuring kW/TR, approach temperatures and combustion efficiency against rated duty.

What is kW/TR and what is a good value?

kW/TR expresses chiller electrical input per ton of refrigeration delivered, and lower is more efficient. The meaningful comparison is against your machine’s own rated performance at the same conditions, not a generic benchmark.

Why does my chiller underperform in summer?

High ambient temperature raises condensing pressure and reduces available capacity, and dust-fouled condenser coils compound the effect. Testing separates ambient-driven capacity loss from genuine mechanical faults.

How is boiler efficiency measured in the field?

By combustion analysis. Flue gas oxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and stack temperature are measured to calculate excess air and combustion efficiency, with the burner tested across its firing range.
