Your datasheet asks for normal flow, rated flow, and minimum flow . If you leave minimum flow blank, the vendor assumes you will never run the pump below 30% of BEP. If your plant turndown goes to 15%, you will experience recirculation and seal failure. Always state your required operating range. Deep Technical Report: API 610 12th Edition Data
