Pump Sectional Committee, MED 20

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Third Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by
the Pumps Sectional Committee had been approved by the Mechanical Engineering Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1976 and subsequently revised in 1989 and 2002.
In this revision, all the amendments have been reviewed and incorporated. Following important changes are made
in this revision:
a) Latest Materials of Construction (MOC) covering all types of manufacturing process have been
incorporated for shaft sleeve, casing wear ring, bush, discharge casing/non-return valve housing, impeller,
pump bowl/diffuser and suction casing.
b) Requirements have been specified for gaskets, seals and packing’s.
c) Cables conforming to IS 694 have been specified.
d) Different types of submersible motors suitable for borewell submersible pumpsets have been specified
based on their constructional features.
e) Increased pump efficiency values have been incorporated in the pump efficiency charts.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the final value,
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis shall be rounded off in accordance with
IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised )’. The number of significant places retained in the
rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standards.

Amendments are issued to standards as the need arises on the basis of comments. Standards are also reviewed
periodically; a standard along with amendments is reaffirmed when such review indicates that no changes are
needed; if the review indicates that changes are needed, it is taken up for revision. Users of Indian Standards
should ascertain that they are in possession of the latest amendments or edition by referring to the latest issue of
‘BIS Catalogue’ and ‘Standards: Monthly Additions’.
This Indian Standard has been developed from Doc No.: MED 20 (12320).
