End-suction centrifugal pumps, rating with 10 bar with bearing bracket - Nominal duty point, main dimensions, designation system
This European Standard specifies the designations, nominal duty points and main dimensions of end-suction centrifugal pumps rated at 10 bar. NOTE: Depending on special circumstances, e.g. temperature, materials, sealing of the shafts etc., excess operating pressure need not attain the value of the nominal pressure under any circumstances.

Diese Europäische Norm legt Bezeichnungen, Nennleistungen und Hauptmaße für Kreiselpumpen mit axialem Eintritt mit Nenndruck von PN 10 bar fest. Bedingt durch besondere Gegebenheiten, z.B. Temperatur, Werkstoff, Wellendichtung usw. braucht der zulässige Betriebsüberdruck nicht in jedem Fall den Nenndruck erreichen.

Overview
EN 733:1995 (published by CEN) is the European standard that defines the designation system, nominal duty points, and main dimensions for end-suction centrifugal pumps rated at 10 bar (PN 10) with a bearing bracket. The standard establishes common terms and dimensional references to improve interchangeability, selection and specification of pumps across industry. Note: depending on special circumstances (temperature, materials, shaft sealing, etc.), the actual allowable operating pressure may be lower than the nominal 10 bar.
Key topics and requirements
- Designation system - standardized naming and type coding to ensure consistent identification of pump families and sizes.
- Nominal duty point - defined reference operating point (flow and head) used for rating and selection of PN 10 end-suction pumps.
- Main dimensions - dimensional data for pump components and mounting interfaces (suction/discharge flanges, centreline height, shaft and bearing bracket geometry) to support mechanical interchangeability.
- Bearing bracket configuration - requirements for pumps supplied with a bearing bracket to ensure consistent alignment and mounting.
- Pressure rating (PN 10) - classification for pumps designed for a nominal pressure of 10 bar; the standard clarifies limits and applicability.
- Application caveat - explicit note that special conditions (temperature, materials, seals) can affect achievable operating pressure and must be considered during selection.
Practical applications
EN 733 is used to specify and select standardized end-suction centrifugal pumps (PN 10) for:
- Building services (heating, ventilation, air conditioning)
- Water supply and booster systems
- General industrial process pumping
- Irrigation and municipal water works
- Replacement and spare-part matching for legacy equipment
Benefits include easier procurement, reduced design complexity, and improved compatibility between manufacturers.
Who uses this standard
- Pump manufacturers and designers producing PN 10 end-suction pumps with bearing brackets
- Mechanical and plant engineers specifying pumps for systems and projects
- Procurement and asset managers seeking interoperable replacement pumps
- Test houses and certification bodies referencing dimensional and duty-point conventions
- Maintenance teams verifying spare-part compatibility
Related standards
Related documents typically cover pump testing, materials, flange standards, mechanical seals and installation/commissioning guidance. When specifying pumps to EN 733, consult complementary standards for performance testing, materials of construction and site installation to ensure complete compliance.
