4.3 All equipment covered in this Guide shall be designed to operate under the conditions stated on data sheet EGE 15-D-25. In addition, all such equipment shall meet the applicable sound level limits established in EGE 00-B-5, without the benefit of additional attenuation devices. Where the sound levels exceed EGE 00-B-5 or project specifications, whichever is more stringent, the vendor shall state expected levels. The vendor shall also include in the proposal the complete details and prices for optional acoustic treatment. 4.4 ASME vertical pump designs acceptable to Mobil are designated by the following letters (See Figure 1): VC Vertical in-line pump with a rigid spacer coupling. VB Vertical in-line pump with a coupling and bearing housing.
NOTE: Vertical pumps with the impeller mounted on an extended motor shaft are not acceptable.

4.5

All pumps shall be single stage.

5. PERFORMANCE 5.1 The pump vendor's requirements for net positive suction head (NPSH) shall be referenced to the centerline of the suction nozzle. 5.2 At the maximum operating temperature, the preferred minimum margin of NPSHR (required) for pumps shall be 0.6 m (2 ft) less than the NPSHA (available), as indicated on EGE 15-D-25. If the 0.6 m (2 ft) margin requirement cannot be met, an NPSH test is required. For testing requirements refer to Section 9 of this Guide. 5.3 The pump design shall allow for a 10 percent or 6 m (20 ft) increase in head at rated flow, whichever is greater. Such increase can be obtained by installation of a larger impeller. 5.4 The pump vendor shall state in the proposal (on EGE 15-D-25) the minimum continuous stable hydraulic and thermal flow for the pumps offered. 5.5 Pumps shall be selected with a head-capacity curve that gradually rises within the operating range for all applications. 5.6 When parallel operation is specified, the characteristic pump curves shall be such that the capacity of each pump is an equal percentage of the total system capacity at all heads from shutoff to 120 percent of best efficiency point (BEP). A 10 percent minimum head rise from rated flow to shutoff is required for pumps operating in parallel. 5.7 Pumps with rated capacity greater than 10 percent beyond the best efficiency point flow on the head-capacity curve for the proposed impeller are not acceptable. 5.8 All curves shall be based on a specific gravity of 1.0 at 20C (68F). Curves should indicate the viscosity effect of the liquid being pumped. For all services with products having a viscosity greater than 40 SSU, viscosity correction factors shall be applied in accordance with Hydraulic Institute Standards.
