Figure 8-5. Basic tabulation of pertinent pump data.

Column 1: Plot plan or item number.
Column 2: Block or plant area.
Column 3: Manufacturer.
Column 4: Model designation.
Column 5: Manufacturer's serial number.
Column 6: Train type. It is highly advantageous to produce isometric sketch-
es identifying the various train types, as shown in Figure 8-6.
Supervisory personnel can rapidly visualize the relative size and
complexity of machinery trains by referring to these train isomet-
rics. A second variant of these isometrics should be marked up to
define where to install vibration transducers or to show operating
technicians where to take vibration readings.
Column 7: Pumping service designation.
Column 8: Fluid pumped (pumpage).
Column 9: Specific gravity. This information is important when mining
whether the pump is suitable for run-in of water.
Column 10: Pumping temperature.
