    Equal water rating in stock pumps

    Hi, In a stock pump manufacturers'curve two capacities and corresponding TDH are indicated: The rated one for stock (5675 USGPM @ 73.5ft)and the "equal water rating" (5900 GPM @77 ft). The fluid is unbleached kraft with 3.5% consistency. Nevertheless, from Gould pumps' "centrifugal pump...
