Scope:

1.1 This Standard applies to centrifugal pumps that require a driver-rated output of 373 W (1/2 hp) nominal up to and including 7.46 kW (10 hp) nominal.

1.2 This Standard specifies the method for testing centrifugal pumps to determine the following characteristics: (a) the total head produced by the pump versus the pump rate of flow; (b) input power versus pump rate of flow; and (c) efficiency versus pump rate of flow.
