The 12th Edition Excel template uses a to clarify responsibilities between the purchaser and vendor:

The in Excel format is a specialized engineering tool used for the procurement and technical specification of centrifugal pumps in the petroleum, petrochemical, and natural gas industries. Key features of these data sheets typically include:

Strict compliance with 12th edition metallurgical standards.

The datasheet organizes information into several critical sections. The table below outlines the key sections and their purposes:

| | Parameter | Value | Unit | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Pump Configuration | Pump Type | | | | | Pump Size | | | | Performance Parameters | Flow Rate (Q) | | m³/h | | | Head (H) | | m | | | Power (P) | | kW | | Design and Materials | Casing Material | | | | | Impeller Material | | | | Operating Conditions | Temperature Range | | °C | | | Pressure Range | | barg |

: Reference API 682 for the seal plan, buffer/flush fluid details, and cooling requirements.

Before issuing your data sheet for a project, ensure your Excel file includes the following verifications: Verification Item Target Standard / Value Excel Check Status Aligned with API 610 12th Edition Annex H [ ] Verified Bearing Life L10 rating > 25,000 hours continuous [ ] Calculated NPSH Margin NPSHa minus NPSHr matches process safety guidelines [ ] Verified Nozzle Loads Compliance with Section 6.5 tables [ ] Locked Seal Chamber Dimensions compliant with API 682 4th Edition [ ] Checked

Preferred Operating Region (POR) and Allowable Operating Region (AOR) 3. Mechanical Design and Construction

Spacer type, service factor, and guard design (non-sparking).

Purpose and importance of the API 610 data sheet

: Specify the Material Class (e.g., S-5, S-6, C-6). The 12th edition removed several older classes like I-1 and I-2.
