I received and was asked to comment on a test report from a pump that failed.
The pump is an electric 1000 gpm at 100 psi unit.
One of the curious things on the report is that they are looking for 78% of
rated pressure at 150% rated flow. NFPA 20 calls for 65%. Before I shoot my
mouth off, is there any justification for this?
