The official API 610 Datasheet (12th Edition) is a standardized form used to request, specify, and document all technical details for a pump. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the main standard. While historically distributed as Excel files on CD-ROM, the modern datasheet is now typically available in digital formats.
The standard aligns fully with API 682 4th Edition, changing how flush plans are selected and documented on the sheet. Structural Breakdown of the Excel Data Sheet

The is an essential procurement tool for heavy-duty centrifugal pumps. When properly structured and filled, it:
Excel allows for live calculations of NPSH Margin , Specific Speed ( Nscap N sub s ) , and Suction Specific Speed ( Nsscap N sub s s end-sub ) . The official API 610 Datasheet (12th Edition) is
| Loading Condition | API 610 Allowable | | :--- | :--- | | | 10 | | Fz (kN) | 6 | | My (kNm) | 7 | Table comparing an example API 610 allowable load to typical piping loads.
The represents the latest evolution in the design and manufacture of centrifugal pumps for the petroleum, petrochemical, and natural gas industries. For engineers and procurement specialists, the Data Sheet is the most critical document in this standard, serving as the "birth certificate" and technical blueprint for every pump on a project. The standard aligns fully with API 682 4th
has been updated; for example, cast iron groups I-1 and I-2 were removed and replaced with Performance Testing : New requirements for NPSH3 (NPSHR)
and introduces a more interactive Excel format to reduce communication errors between purchasers and vendors. Key Features of the Excel Data Sheet Color-Coded Responsibilities
: Standardized tables for API material classes (e.g., S-1, S-5, C-6, A-8) to ensure metallurgy matches the process fluid requirements.
: Detailed updates to classifications for overhung (OH), between-bearings (BB), and vertically suspended (VS) pumps. Material Grades : Informative
