Pump Selection and Application Guide
Certain considerations are
necessary for proper pump selection and application. Capacity is
generally given in cubic metres per hour or litres per minute.
Discharge pressure is in (kPa) Kilopascals or metres head. Discharge
head must include the static or vertical head plus head loss due to
friction in the piping system. All centrifugal pumps operate at the
intersection of their capacity-head curves. Since it is not always
possible to rate and select a pump meeting the capacity-head
conditions of a prospective application, arrangements for throttling
the discharge should be made in the installation.
For assistance in selecting
the best possible pumps for your application, we require the following
information. This will allow our engineers to furnish the best
possible pump and motor combination at the most economical cost for
your application.
