Pumps and their Applications












                                 Pumps are designed to perform under known stresses in having to pull and push


                                 materials to a desired point.


                                 The pulling and pushing of material are known as Pump Suction, Pump Lift and

                                 Pump Head Pressure.


                                 A pump will perform differently under different suction and head conditions. This

                                 performance analysis is called a Pump Curve.
