COMPLETE TECHNICAL NOTES HERE
Net Positive Suction Head
1) N.P.S.H.R -- Required by pump at duty point. Found on the pump performance curve.
2) N.P.S.H.A -- Available in the system and must be determined by calculation.
IMPORTANT!
For the pump to perform properly, the N.P.S.H.R (required), must be less than the N.P.S.H.A. (available)
