Pump Datasheet
A pump datasheet for a P&ID (Piping and Instrumentation Diagram) typically includes essential
information about the pump that is necessary for its proper installation, operation, and maintenance.
Here's a general outline of what you might find in a pump datasheet for inclusion in a P&ID:
1. Pump Identification:
• Pump Tag or Name: A unique identifier for the pump, often used to reference it on
the P&ID.
• Pump Type: Whether it's a centrifugal pump, positive displacement pump, etc.
2. Operating Conditions:
• Flow Rate: The desired or maximum flow rate of the pump, typically in units like cubic
meters per hour (m³/h) or gallons per minute (GPM).
• Pressure: The discharge pressure of the pump, usually in units like bar, psi, or meters
of head.
• Fluid Properties: Information about the fluid being pumped, including its type,
viscosity, density, and any corrosive properties.
3. Materials of Construction:
• Pump Casing Material: The material used for the pump casing, which must be
compatible with the fluid being pumped.
• Impeller Material: The material used for the impeller, which can affect pump
performance and durability.
• Shaft Material: The material used for the pump shaft, which must be strong and
corrosion-resistant.
4. Operating Parameters:
• Motor Power: The power rating of the pump motor, typically in units like horsepower
(HP) or kilowatts (kW).
• Motor Speed: The operating speed of the pump motor, usually specified in
revolutions per minute (RPM).
5. Special Features:
• Any special features or options included with the pump, such as variable speed
drives, explosion-proof construction, or special seals.
