conditions and shall be designed and constructed for continuous duty at full load.

Pumps shall be suitable for a capacity range of 25% to 125% of duty point capacity.

Capacity - vs. - discharge pressure curve for each pump shall preferably be
continuously drooping from the shut-off point to the rated operation point and be
suitable for parallel operation. The pumps shall be designed to avoid cavitations at any
of the operating points.

The required duty range for a pump shall be on stable portion of its head-capacity curve
close to the best efficiency point. The head developed at the best efficiency point
shall be close to the required differential pressure so that throttling is not required
at pump discharge.

The equipment and auxiliaries shall be designed for quick and economical maintenance.

The rotating elements of the pumps shall be checked for critical speed in bending as well
as torsion. The critical speeds shall be at least 30% away from the normal speed for units
with flexible shafts and at least 20% away from the maximum operating speed in case of
stiff shafts.

All passages inside the pump casing and impellers, which may be inaccessible to
machining, shall be ground to a smooth finish as far as practicable.

The direction of rotation shall be clearly marked either by incorporating it on the casing
or by separate metal plate arrow securely fitted to the casing.
