1.1 This International Standard specifies the requirements for Class II centrifugal pumps of single-stage, multistage, horisontal or vertical construction, with any drive and any installation for general application. Pumps used in the chemical process industries (e.g. those confirming to ISO 2858) are typical of those covered by this International Standard. 1.2 This International Standard includes design features concerned with installation, maintenance and safetly for these pumps including baseplate, couplings and auxiliary piping, but it does not specify any requirements for the driver other than those related to its rated power output. 1.3 Where application of this International Standard has been called for and requires a specific design feature, alternative designs may be offered which meet the intent of this International Standard provided that the alternativeis tescribed in detail. Pumps not complying with all requirements of this International Standard may be offered for consideration provided that all deviations are stated.*
