Pump System Calculations

This document provides specifications for a LO-201 pump that can move 340 gallons per hour of #2 fuel oil at 50 PSI. It details the pump's suction and discharge parameters including pipe sizing and fittings, fluid properties, pressure and flow rates, and elevation details. The storage tank is below the pump with 1 foot of lift. The pump can provide the required 5 PSIG pressure at a 12 foot elevation at the end user.
