The chart shows approximate delivery rates as seen in vapor equalized propane systems at 70°F (21°C) with no pressure
loss in pump suction piping.
The following will cause increased vaporization of the liquid in the pump suction, adversely affecting the delivery:
1. Restrictions in the suction piping such as internal valves, excess flow valves, elbows, etc.
2. Restriction or lack of a vapor return line
3. Temperatures below 70°F (21°C)
This loss of delivery is not caused by the pump but is a result of the natural thermodynamic properties of
liquefied petroleum gases. See the "GUIDE TO CORKEN LIQUEFIED GAS TRANSFER EQUIPMENT" (CP226)
for additional information.
