NPSH and suction
Gather suction conditions to discuss the cavitation margin.
Information to gather
Fluid, temperature, tank level and suction piping.

NPSH, head loss, power or viscosity: find the information to gather and discuss your requirements with the FB Bombas technical team.
Each topic brings together reference information and the data that supports an assessment. Equipment selection is discussed with our technical team.
Gather suction conditions to discuss the cavitation margin.
Fluid, temperature, tank level and suction piping.
Describe the piping and fluid path for a system assessment.
Flow, diameters, lengths, piping material and fittings.
Gather the duty point and drive information to assess the pump set.
Flow, head, fluid and pump curve, if available.
Identify the value, unit and temperature stated in your fluid data sheet.
Viscosity in cSt, cP or SSU, temperature and density, if known.
Start with what you know. If some information is not yet available, describe the application so we can continue the conversation.
Include the fluid, application and operating temperature. A product data sheet can provide additional information.
Share the required flow and installation conditions. For an existing pump, include the model and nameplate identification.
Tell us whether you need new equipment, a replacement or support. Send documents and drawings to our sales email.
Share your application and questions. Our team reviews the information to discuss pump selection and the next steps.
