The test rig consists of an air compressor with an air suction tank, one end of which has an orifice and the other end is connected to a cylinder. The orifice pressure tapping is linked to one of the limbs of the U-Tube manometer on the panel. An energy meter is used to record the power supplied to the motor and, as a result, the work required for compression. The equipment calculates volumetric and isothermal efficiency at various discharge pressures.

The redwood viscometer is made up of a vertical cylindrical oil cup with an orifice in the base. A ball can be used to close the orifice. A hook pointing upward is used as a guide mark when filling the oil. The water bath surrounds the cylindrical cup. The water bath keeps the temperature of the oil being tested constant. It is used to measure fluid viscosity and the flow properties of liquids.
