Cameron Hydraulic Data, 20th Edition

The Cameron Hydraulic Data Book is a Flowserve Corporation publication and, as in the previous nineteen editions, is published as an aid to engineers involved with the selection and application of pumping equipment.

The twentieth edition includes some new content additions.

First is a helpful reference on mechanical seal piping plans which starts on Page 8-29. This guide includes illustrated pump cross-sections and piping plan schematics as well as a description of the purpose, typical applications and preventative maintenance tips for each plan.

The new edition also includes an updated Pump Selection Guide (Section 11) which matches the complete pump portfolio of Flowserve Corporation with primary served markets. The selection matrix helps users determine which pump types are generally applied in 70 different fluid pumping applications. This section also includes an expanded Quick Reference guide for seven different pump categories, with product models, pump types and typical performance ranges.

Finally, we’ve added friction loss tables for PVC and polyethylene piping in Section 3 starting on page 3-48.  In addition, a number of minor modifications, corrections and clarifications initiated by users and the editor have been made throughout the book. To facilitate locating the desired data, a detailed index is provided in the rear of this book (Section 10).

It should be noted that for the convenient reference this index is arranged in two (2) parts: first a General Index with items listed alphabetically, page 10-2 through 10-10, and secondly, an Index of Liquids arranged alphabetically, page 10-11 through page 10-14. Frequent reference to this index is suggested for quickly locating the information desired.
