Submit the horizontal pump duty
Provide the required flow and head as a paired project requirement for the horizontal centrifugal slurry pump enquiry. Identify the transfer route and the system drawing used to prepare that requirement. Ask the supplier to respond to the paired duty with a proposed configuration and its associated document.
Keep normal operation and other requested scenarios in separate worksheet entries. Attach the available measurement or calculation record for each scenario. Request clarification if a proposal responds to a different operating condition from the requirement submitted by your project team.
Describe the slurry being transferred
Attach the available slurry composition, concentration and particle information to the same duty worksheet. State where the sample was collected and identify the measurement basis used in the submitted report. Ask which additional sample details are needed to review the proposed horizontal pump.
Describe known changes in the stream without combining unrelated samples into a single condition. Ask the supplier to identify the slurry description assumed in its response. Refer any difference between that description and your project documents to the responsible project specialist before accepting the proposal.
Provide the horizontal installation drawing
Send the installation drawing showing the proposed location, pipe interfaces and access information relevant to the equipment package. Ask for the outline drawing and connection documents associated with the proposed horizontal configuration. Request a clear equipment boundary identifying which assemblies belong within the quotation.
Ask for separate identification of the drive, connection items and accessories proposed with the pump. Distinguish existing site equipment from requested supply items. Request a revised package schedule if the proposed arrangement changes a connection or assembly identified in your installation drawing.
Review the horizontal equipment proposal
Request the performance curve and configuration reference associated with the submitted duty point. Ask for the curve conditions and document revision needed by your project reviewer. Keep alternative configurations separate so their document references remain connected to their own proposed equipment schedules.
Ask for written answers to unresolved slurry, duty and interface questions before approving the quotation scope. Request the maintenance document and the proposed spare part identification information for the configuration under discussion. Confirm minimum order quantity and lead time before ordering, and request packaging and delivery terms.
