    API 610 provides allowable forces and moments on pump nozzles, but loads can be increased to 2 times if criteria in Annex F are met, which must be approved by the pump vendor. For any loads exceeding even 2 times, approval must be obtained from the vendor. Minimum allowable nozzle loads for metering pumps and those per NFPA code shall be as provided by the pump supplier. For API 676 rotary pumps, minimum loads shall be per API676 Table 2, but exceeding loads require vendor approval. Allowable forces and moments for centrifugal compressors shall be 1.85 times NEMA SM23 criteria per API 617, with exceeding loads also needing vendor approval.

    Centrifugal Pumps

    API 610, Table 5 gives the allowable forces and moments on the Pump Nozzles (Suction and
    Discharge). However, if the loads acting on the Pump nozzles exceed these values, the allowable
    loads can be increased to 2 times, provided the criteria specified in Annex F are satisfied. This
    shall be approved and confirmed by the Pump Vendor. As a general practice, approval shall be
    taken from the vendor for 2 times API 610 at the initial stage of the project.

    However,if one or more components of the forces and moments are still exceeding, same shall be
    approved & agreed with the Pump Vendor.

    Metering Pumps/Pumps as per NFPA code

    The minimum allowable nozzle loads shall be as provided by the Pump Supplier.

    Pumps (API 676, Rotary Positive Displacement)

    The minimum allowable nozzle loads shall be as per API676, Table 2. However, if one or more
    components of the forces and moments are still exceeding, same shall be approved & agreed
    with the Pump Vendor.

    Centrifugal Compressors & Turbo Expanders

    The allowable forces and moments acting on the nozzles of centrifugal compressors shall be
    designed in accordance with API 617, the forces and moments shall be 1.85 times the values
    based on the load criteria of NEMA SM23. However, if one or more components of the forces
    and moments are still exceeding, same shall be approved & agreed with the Vendor.
