Energy Assessment for Pumping Systems
This Standard covers pumping systems, which are defined as one or more pumps and those interacting or interrelating elements that together accomplish the desired work of moving a fluid. A pumping system thus generally includes pump(s), driver, drives, distribution piping, valves, sealing systems, controls, instrumentation,and end-use equipment such as heat exchangers. This Standard addresses open and closed-loop pumping systems typically used in industry, and is also applicable to other applications. This Standard sets the requirements for conducting and reporting the results of a pumping system assessment (hereafter referenced as an ôassessmentö) that considers the entire pumping system, from energy inputs to the work performed as the result of these inputs.
