ISO and ANSI Pump: A Denwell Fluid Control Guide

In the ever-evolving industrial and commercial scene, maintaining strict standards is crucial for ensuring the performance and safety of products. Standards ensure both compatibility and safety, which in turn, stimulate competition and economic efficiency. This article aims to compare two significant sets of standards for industrial pumps: ANSI B73.1 and ISO 5199, with insights on how Denwell Fluid Control can aid you in making the best choice.

An Overview

ANSI B73.1 and ISO 5199 are pivotal standards in the realm of industrial pumps. They define quality and performance benchmarks, assuring users of the product's reliability and safety.

ANSI B73.1 (ASME B73.1)

• ANSI B73.1 is tailored to meet the needs of the chemical industry, offering a variety of single-stage end-suction centrifugal pumps.
• This standard covers 27 pump sizes and specifies critical dimensions, performance features, and design attributes.
• By standardizing layouts and dimensions, ANSI B73.1 ensures pumps from various manufacturers can be easily replaced.

ISO 5199 (and ISO 2858)

• These standards cover the same pump types as ANSI B73.1 but offer stricter specifications.
• ISO 5199 elevates the performance standards and construction criteria above those of ANSI B73.1.
• Pumps compliant with ISO 5199 typically offer superior reliability, serviceability, and longevity.

However, substituting ISO 5199 pumps for ANSI B73.1 pumps requires consideration of adaptations such as mounting plates, motor couplings, and other design differences.

ANSI Pumps are dimensionally regulated centrifugal pumps. Simplistic in design and concept, ANSI pumps are governed by specifications from the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). These pumps operate on horizontal, centerline discharge, and single-stage end suction principles. ANSI centrifugal pumps convert mechanical energy from a motor into kinetic energy, which then transforms into potential energy in the form of the pumped fluid's pressure along a system curve with varying flow and head.

Regardless of the manufacturer, ANSI pumps come in different sizes and dimensions. Every ANSI Process Pump must adhere to the ANSI / ASME B73.1 standards set by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). These guidelines ensure that equipment produced by all ANSI pump manufacturers is interchangeable in terms of mounting dimensions, input shafts, and discharge nozzles, among others. Alternative designs are also acceptable if they meet the standard’s performance and construction specifications.

Applications of ANSI Pumps

ANSI chemical pumps find their applications in Oil & Gas refineries, petrochemical, and chemical industries. Other sectors that utilize these pumps include paper stock, pharmaceuticals, ethanol production, food processing, and various other process plants.

ANSI pumps are most commonly used for transferring thin fluids like alcohol, water, and other less aggressive fluids. With the right impeller, these pumps can handle fluids with solids. Additionally, with appropriate material selection, ANSI pumps can transfer highly corrosive aggressive liquids.

Benefits of ANSI pumps

ANSI Pumps are not only versatile and readily available but also offer reliable service across numerous applications. They are particularly favored in chemical processing for their flexibility and ease of operation.

The cost-effectiveness and reliability of ANSI pumps make them an ideal choice. Plant operators can easily replace these pumps without needing to redesign or change motor attachments, baseplate dimensions, couplings, or piping.

• Dimensional interchangeability across brands and manufacturers
• High availability of ANSI parts and pumps
• Higher affordability when compared to API pumps
• With the right impeller, ANSI pumps can pump fluids with solids in suspension

ANSI Pumps from Rotech

Since 2012, Rotech has been a prominent ANSI centrifugal pump manufacturer. Rotech’s offerings include ANSI Frame-Mounted pumps and an innovative close-coupled ANSI pump. Our design for close-coupled process/industrial pumps adheres to ANSI ASME B73.1, guaranteeing maximum efficiency and worldwide availability.

ANSI Frame Mounted Pumps

1. 1196 Series ANSI Pumps are end suction frame-mounted centrifugal pumps meant for handling corrosive fluid applications. They come with semi-open impellers and are built for heavy-duty use.
   
2. 1196LF Series ANSI Pumps target Low Flow and High Head applications. They too are end suction frame-mounted centrifugal pumps designed for corrosive fluid applications.
   
3. 1796 Series ANSI Self Priming Pumps feature semi-open impellers and cater to a variety of heavy-duty industrial applications.
   

ANSI Close Coupled Process/Industrial Pumps

1. 1296 Series ANSI Close Coupled Pumps provide an alternative to ANSI Frame-mounted pumps. This series uses the same hydraulic pump casing, impeller, and stuffing box cover as the regular ANSI pump series.
   
2. 1296LF Series Low Flow ANSI Close Coupled Pumps are paired with NEMA C Face Electric Motors. Like their frame-mounted counterparts, they share the same hydraulic pump casing, impeller, and stuffing box cover.
   
3. 1796 Series Self Priming ANSI Close Coupled Pumps offer an option for ANSI Self-Priming Frame-mounted pumps. This series uses the same components as the regular self-priming pump series.
