This Company Standard specifies requirements and gives recommendations for

submersible pumps as well as the pertinent electrical engine (submerged) for
operation both in on-shore and in off-shore plants, including the Fire Fighting
Systems.
Required performances, operating conditions, construction characteristics,
auxiliary equipment, accessories, and performance guarantees are here
defined.

1.2 TERMS AND DEFINITIONS

The “Company” is the party that initiates the project and, ultimately, pays for
its design and construction. The Company will generally specify the technical
requirements.
The “Contractor” is the party that carries out all or part of the design,
engineering, procurement, installation, and commissioning or management of a
project or operation of a facility. The Company may sometimes undertake all or
part of the duties of the Contractor, e.g. when the Company awards the
Contract directly to the Manufacturer.
The “Manufacturer” is the party that manufactures the pump and performs the
design, engineering, procurement, installation, commissioning and
management of the pump package, procuring other components from Sub-
suppliers.
The “Sub-supplier” is the party that manufactures or supplies equipment and
services to perform the duties specified by the Manufacturer, typically sub-
systems and components of the main equipment.
The word “shall” indicates a requirement.
The word “should” indicates a recommendation.

7.2.2 Performance Test

Unless otherwise agreed, the test speed shall be within 3 % of the rated speed
shown on the pump data sheet. Test results shall be corrected to rated speed.
A performance test shall include eight (8) data points, including shut-off. The
minimum thermal flow point shall be used if the shut-off cannot be established
in a practical way.
 One (1) data point shall be 120% of the flow at best efficiency
point.
 All conditions shall be stable for each data point.
 Power consumption shall be determined for all data points.
Test data shall be corrected for specified operating conditions such as speed,
viscosity, and density.
 Corrected data shall be within the tolerances allowed for
guaranteed figures as stated under Performance Tolerances in
Table at point 9.2.
 If the impeller requires modification to meet these tolerances, the
pump shall be retested..
 Data shall be submitted in a graph showing test data and
corrected data.

Pumps shall run continuously for a period of at least two hours at rated flow at
the actual temperature of the liquid to be pumped, or in a representative
condition approved by the Company, unless otherwise specified on the
data/requisition sheet.
A starting current test shall be performed on each motor.

9. PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES

9.1 PERFORMANCE GARANTEES

The manufacturer shall guarantee that, for the guarantee point and at the rated
speed (or in some cases frequency and voltage), the measured pump curve
touches, or passes through a tolerance surrounding the guarantee point, as per
Table in point 9.2.
A guarantee point shall be defined by a guaranteed flow, QG, and a guaranteed
head, HG.
In addition, one or more of the following quantities may be guaranteed at the
specified
conditions and at the rated speed:
a)
1) the minimum pump efficiency, ηG, or the maximum pump input
power, PG, or
2) in the case of a combined pump and motor unit (i.e. submersible
pumps), the minimum combined efficiency, ηgrG, or the maximum
pump motor unit input power, PgrG.
b)
the maximum NPSHR at the guarantee flow.
The maximum power input may be guaranteed for the guarantee point or for a
range of points along the pump curve. This, however, can require larger
tolerances to be agreed upon between the Company and Manufacturer.
