NFPA 20 fire pump vibration limits

[ashiqaa]

Hi

Does anyone knows the standard required for checking the vibration levels during site acceptance test for NFPA 20 Horizontal split case fire pumps. Actually NFPA20 does not recommend any standard except general statement that the vibration levels shall not pose damage to the fire pump components. UL and FM approval standards also do not demand for vibration checks for the fire pumps. If there is an excessive vibration on the pump how to decide its acceptance

Do anyone have experience on the similar issues

hello ashiqaa....
you can use ISO 10816-7 for category II, Pump for general or less critical application (eg. pump for non hazardous liquids)......
