In our last Monday Morning Minute, we suggested using the Base Mounted Bell and Gossett series 1510 series end suction or VSX series double suction pumps when the design capacity requires over 10 HP. We do occasionally see our series 80 and series 80-SC inline pumps specified in applications up to 100 HP. Often the reason used for this application is limited floor space. Today let’s examine floor space required by these pumps.

You’ve selected the GPM (gallons per minute) flow rate and the pump head. You corrected the head for the fluid as described in the last few articles. It’s time to select a pump. Why do you select one pump over another and how do you, as the specifying engineer, make sure the submitted pump is remotely close to the one you selected. The R. L. Deppmann Monday Morning Minutes continues Pump Selection today.
