PUMP IDENTIFICATION (NAMEPLATE)
These pumps are designated by serial number, model, size, and M.O.C. This information is stamped on an
identification plate and affixed to the pump frame or casing.
Permanent records are kept by the factory and filed by serial number.
The pump nameplate contains the following information:
1. SERIAL NUMBER
– Composed of certain groups of numbers. All groups are necessary for
identification. TYPICAL EXAMPLE: P 2081 / 98
2. MODEL
– CSR, followed by SIZE – Composed of three (3) groups of number.
EXAMPLE: 4 x 3 x 11 – First number (4) is the ASA suction flange size in inches, second number (3) is
the ASA discharge flange size in inches, the third number (11) is the nominal maximum impeller
diameter in inches.
3. IMPELLER DIAMETER
– This number is the impeller diameter in millimetres as supplied by the factory.
EXAMPLE: 265
4. FLOW
– Design flow rate in cubic metres per hour.
5. HEAD
– Design head in metres.
6. MAX. DESIGN PRESSURE
– This refers to factory standard hydrostatic test pressure for hydraulic end
of pump.
7. M.O.C.
– Material of construction of pump shown in abbreviated form and in four parts.
EXAMPLE: CI/SS/CI/EN8 – where casing, stuff box and wear plate (if fitted) are in Cast Iron / impeller
in Stainless Steel / frame is in Cast Iron / shaft is in EN8
8. RPM
– Design speed of pump to achieve design flow and head.
