PURPOSE AND USE OF PROCESS INDUSTRY PRACTICES

In an effort to minimize the cost of process industry facilities, this Practice has
been prepared from the technical requirements in the existing standards of major
industrial users, contractors, or standards organizations. By harmonizing these
technical requirements into a single set of Practices, administrative, application, and
engineering costs to both the purchaser and the manufacturer should be reduced. While
this Practice is expected to incorporate the majority of requirements of most users,
individual applications may involve requirements that will be appended to and take
precedence over this Practice. Determinations concerning fitness for purpose and
particular matters or application of the Practice to particular project or engineering
situations should not be made solely on information contained in these materials. The
use of trade names from time to time should not be viewed as an expression of
preference but rather recognized as normal usage in the trade. Other brands having the
same specifications are equally correct and may be substituted for those named. All
Practices or guidelines are intended to be consistent with applicable laws and
regulations including OSHA requirements. To the extent these Practices or guidelines
should conflict with OSHA or other applicable laws or regulations, such laws or
regulations must be followed. Consult an appropriate professional before applying or
acting on any material contained in or suggested by the Practice.

This Practice is subject to revision at any time by the responsible Function Team and
will be reviewed every 5 years. This Practice will be revised, reaffirmed, or withdrawn.
Information on whether this Practice has been revised may be found at www.pip.org.

3. Definitions
For the purposes of this Practice, the following definitions apply:

best efficiency point (BEP): Point or capacity at which a pump achieves its highest efficiency

critical speed: Speed corresponding to a lateral natural frequency of a rotor

design: Term used to define various parameters, e.g., design power, design pressure, design temperature,
or design speed

maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP): Maximum continuous pressure for which the equipment
has been designed when it is operating at the maximum allowable temperature

maximum continuous speed (in revolutions per minute): Speed at least equal to 105% of the highest
speed required by any of the specified operating conditions

maximum discharge pressure: Maximum suction pressure plus the maximum differential pressure that the
pump is able to develop when operating with the maximum impeller diameter at maximum continuous
speed and maximum specified relative density (specific gravity)

minimum continuous stable flow: Lowest flow at which the pump can operate without exceeding the
vibration limits imposed by this Practice

normal wear parts: Parts normally restored or replaced at each pump overhaul. Typically these parts are
wear rings, interstage bushings, balancing devices, throat bushings, seal faces, bearings, and all gaskets.

operating region: Portion of a pump’s hydraulic coverage over which a pump operates

Process Industry Practices Page 3 of 26


PIP RESP003S COMPLETE REVISION
Specification for Vertical Submerged Motor Centrifugal Pumps for Water Service February 2004

operating region - acceptable: Portion of a pump’s hydraulic coverage over which a pump is allowed to
operate, determined by upper vibration limit specified in this Practice, by temperature rise or by other
limitation specified by the supplier

operating region - preferred: Portion of a pump’s hydraulic coverage over which a pump’s vibration is
within the base limit specified in this Practice

owner: The party who owns the facility wherein the vertical submerged motor centrifugal pumps for
water service will be used

pressure casing: Composite of all stationary pressure-containing parts of a pump, including all nozzles,
seal glands, and other attached parts, but excluding the stationary and rotating members of mechanical
seals

purchaser: The party who awards the contract to the supplier. The purchaser may be the owner or the
owner’s authorized agent.

rated operating point: Point at which the supplier certifies that pump performance is within the
tolerances stated in this Practice

rotor: Assembly of all the rotating parts of a centrifugal pump excluding the seals and bearings. If
purchased as a spare, a rotor typically does not include the pump half coupling hub.

specific gravity (SG): Ratio of the liquid’s density to that of water at 4°C (39.2°F)

suction specific speed: An index defining the relationship between flow, NPSHR (defined in the
following equation) and rotating speed for pumps of similar geometry. Suction specific speed is
calculated for the pump’s performance at BEP with the maximum diameter impeller and provides an
assessment of a pump’s susceptibility to internal recirculation. Suction specific speed is calculated by the
following equation:

nqs = N(Q)0.5/(NPSHR)0.75
where
nqs = suction specific speed
N = rotating speed in revolutions per minute
Q = flow per impeller eye, in cubic meters per second (gallons
per minute) at the BEP with the maximum diameter impeller
NPSHR = net positive suction head required in meters (ft) at the BEP
for the maximum diameter impeller
Note: Suction specific speed derived using cubic meters per second and meters, multiplied by a
factor of 51.6, is equal to suction specific speed derived using U.S. gallons per minute
and feet. The usual symbol for suction specific speed in U.S. units is Nss .
supplier: Manufacturer of the pump or the manufacturer’s agent

unit responsibility: Responsibility for coordinating the technical aspects of the equipment and all
auxiliary systems included in the scope of order. Factors such as the power requirements, speed,
direction, of rotation, couplings, dynamics, lubrication, material test reports, instrumentation, piping, and
testing of components are included.

General Notes:
a. For waters that may be in contact with hydrocarbons, purchaser must indicate whether water is considered sour.
Purchaser shall indicate whether H2S is present (even in trace amounts).
b. If ammonia is present from chemical-treating reactions or from other sources, bronze internals shall not be used.
c. Some types of waters described in the following Water Description Notes are not typically encountered in the refinery or
process plant. However, these waters (or waters with similar corrosive elements) may be pumped in auxiliary or related
plant systems, thereby justifying their inclusion to cover all user applications.
Water Description Notes:
1. Fresh potable water is assumed to be saturated or nearly saturated with oxygen and at a temperature below 100°C
(212°F). At a temperatures above 100°C (212°F), water may become aggressive and unstable, requiring special
material class based on water chemistry.
2. Seawater is assumed to be fully oxygenated and clean seawater; i.e., seawater does not contain hydrocarbons and is
not brackish bay water with excessively high chlorides and other contaminants. Seawater outside this definition requires
special material recommendations. Additionally, if flow rate is less than 1 m/s (3 ft/s) or frequently stagnant, pitting may
occur and special material recommendations are required.
3. Oily and surface foul water, water draw, and reflux streams vary widely in corrosivity. Class A-1 or more corrosion-
resistant classes may be required. Special material recommendations shall be obtained on the basis of expected
contaminants.
4. Produced water is corrosive and defined as seawater (or similar high-chloride water from an aquifer) that has been
injected into an oil field and subsequently risen to the surface as an oil-water mixture from which water is removed and
reinjected. Typical produced water is assumed to have H2S, possibly CO2, a minimum pH of 6.0, and maximum
chlorides of 60,000 ppm. Class C-2 is normally a minimum, but class shall be based on purchaser-furnished water
chemistry, temperature, and other parameters defined by purchaser and supplier. Classes C-3 or C-4 may be required.
Material temperature limits are dependent on specific corrosive conditions.
5. Injection water is water injected into an oil-bearing formation to maintain formation pressure and enhance oil recovery.
Corrosiveness of injection water may vary widely because the water may be seawater, produced water, freshwater, or
aquifer water with varying corrosivity. Typical injection water is high in chlorides and may contain H2S and CO2. Class C-
2 is normally a minimum, but class shall be based on purchaser-furnished water chemistry, temperature, and other
parameters defined by purchaser and supplier. Classes C-3 or C-4 may be required. Material temperature limits are
dependent on specific corrosive conditions.

Page 24 of 26 Process Industry Practices


COMPLETE REVISION PIP RESP003S
February 2004 Specification for Vertical Submerged Motor Centrifugal Pumps for Water Service

6. Formation water is similar to produced water and considered a highly saline water (brine). Formation water comes from
aquifers and other sources. Typically, formation water has very high concentrations of chlorides (150,000 ppm or
higher), possibly H2S, and nearly neutral pH. Class shall be based on purchaser-furnished water chemistry,
temperature, and other parameters defined by purchaser and supplier. Classes C-3, C-4, or other special materials
beyond the scope of this Practice may be required. Material temperature limits are dependent on specific corrosive
conditions.

Notes:
(1) Mating wear surfaces of hardenable materials shall have a difference in Brinell hardness numbers (BHN) of at least
50 BHN unless both wear surfaces have BHN of 400 or higher.
(2) Requirement for hard-facing and specific hard-facing material may be specified by the purchaser on data sheets. Method
of hard-facing application may also be specified by purchaser, or both material and method of application may be
specified by mutual agreement between purchaser and supplier. Alternatives to hard-facing may include opening of
running clearances and/or use of nongalling materials.
(3) Duplex (austenitic-ferritic) stainless steels are typically identified by trade name and have slightly varying composition
and corrosion-resistant properties. One of the most common wrought duplex steels (UNS 31803) has a nominal
composition of 22% chromium, 5.5% nickel, 3% molybdenum, and 0.14% nitrogen.
(4) Super duplex stainless steels are distinguished from standard duplex steels (Note 3) by increased amounts of chromium
(25% nominal) and other alloys, typically nickel, molybdenum, and nitrogen. These stainless steels are most frequently
designated by trade name with slightly varying compositions and specific corrosion resistance.
(5) 6-Moly (super austenitic) stainless steels are enhanced austenitic stainless steels that have maximum resistance to
pitting and crevice corrosion. These steels are typically required for the most severe services with high-chloride
concentrations. These steels are designated by trade name. Choice of a specific steel shall be according to purchaser
preference, mutual agreement between purchaser and supplier, and/or specific corrosive conditions.
(6) Synthetic cutless rubber or Thordon (or equivalent) are acceptable alternatives for sandy or abrasive water service.
(7) Nickel-aluminum-bronze shall be temper annealed.
