Estimating overhung load moments
Based on SI units
W = Mass of pump kg
L = Distance from mounting f ange
to pump center of gravity
(refer to Installation drawings section)

= Calculation factor for rated (vibratory) acceleration (G’s)*
G

= Calculation factor for maximum shock acceleration (G’s)*
* This factor depends on the application (see next page).

Based on US units
W = Weight of pump [lb]
L = Distance from mounting f ange [in]
to pump center of gravity
