This standard covers hydraulic performance tests for acceptance of rotodynamic pumps (centrifugal, mixed flow, and axial flow pumps). It is intended to be used for pump acceptance testing at pump test facilities, such as manufacturersÆ pump test facilities or laboratories only. Industry experience shows that it is very difficult to perform measurements accurate enough to satisfy the acceptance requirements in this standard when testing is performed in the field. Information in the standard may be applied to pumps of any size and to any pumped liquids behaving as clear water.
