The Pump Curve tab allows you to document the various motor speeds for a pump and indicate whether or not it is a variable speed pump. The fields are defined in the table below:
Field Name |
Use/Purpose |
Low Speed |
The low speed, in rotations per minute, at which the pump operates. |
High Speed |
The high speed, in rotations per minute, at which the pump operates. |
Shut Off Head L & H |
The head against which the pump produces no flow. |
Low H 1-6 (ft) |
Pressure Head values for the pump at the low (or normal, if not variable) speed. The heads correlate with the corresponding flows (i.e. H1-Q1, H2-Q2). |
High H 1-6 (ft) |
Pressure Head values for the pump at high speed. The heads correlate with the corresponding flows. |
Low Q 1-6 (gpm) |
The pump flow rate, in gallons per minute, at the low (or normal if not variable) speed. |
High Q 1-6 (gpm) |
The pump flow rate, in gallons per minute, at the high speed. |
