Basic Principles for the Design of Centrifugal Pump Installations

This is the seventh edition of the Pump E book, and it has become a long-time and revered reference e-book since it was first written. It has been completely redesigned and expanded to meet the most recent global and European standards. In many cases, references to outdated requirements as well as new requirements can be made. This comprehensive version covers all aspects of liquid pumping and is a reliable reference work in the design and operation of pumps and pump techniques. 

Furthermore, it provides both designers and operators with a wealth of information when considering the total life costs of a pump installation. It has been compiled by Sterling SIHI's most skilled and educated engineers, ensuring that its content will be invaluable to any engineer concerned with liquid pumping. Our gratitude goes out to everyone who helped compile it.
