6.4 Pressure temperature capability
The maximum pressure rating of the pump, including the connection of the pump and pipe flanges, can
be determined from the chart and table shown below. The maximum working pressure is dependent
upon both the casing limits and the mating flanges.
The table below references the combination of pump size, material and mating pipe flanges to the pres-
sure temperature chart. To determine the maximum working pressure:
1.
Select the proper code designation for the pump size, material and mating pipe flanges from the
table.
2.
Follow the coded curve on the chart to the desired pumping temperature.
3.
The pressure value shown at that temperature is the maximum working pressure of the pump
and mating pipe flange combination.
