The power absorbed at the duty point should be read from the pump curve and an appropriately sized prime mover selected that allows for some spare power capacity (recommended 15%) to accommodate efficiency reductions as the installation ages.

    3. INSTALLATION 3. INSTALLATION Location: The pump should be installed as near as possible to the water and as a general rule the suction lift should be minimised to ensure maximum pumping efficiency. Foundation: To be sufficiently substantial to support the pump independently of piping and provide sufficient support to eliminate mounting bedplate distortion.

    Foot Valve: Unless there is a positive suction with the water surface above the pump centerline and a free water flow into the pump, a foot valve is required with an inlet area atleast 1 ½ times the area of the suction pipe. A strainer should have clear area of 3 or 4 times that of the suction pipe.
