Creating Pump Standards Since 1917 
ANSI/HI Pump Standards are Invaluable Business Assets

ANSI/HI Standards have been developed in the public interest and are designed to help eliminate misunderstandings 

between a manufacturer and a purchaser and/or user. It is also intended that Standards assist the user to:

➔ Select, purchase and test the proper pump for a particular need

➔ Decrease design costs and avoid miscommunication

➔ Increase pump and systems reliability

➔ Accurately determine pump performance

➔ Train and appropriately teach others in an organization

➔ Reduce life cycle costs, improve pump systems efficiency and save money

➔ Quickly locate needed information; search the Master Index or individual Standards indexes on the 

CD-ROM; Adobe® PDF format; all of the text is searchable using standard Adobe® features

Authoritative and comprehensive, every ANSI/HI Standard is developed by the collaborative efforts of recognized industry experts, 

each possessing extensive knowledge on a particular aspect of pumps and/or pumping systems technology. All of the Standards 

present concise, easy-to-read information, and cover a broad range of topics that include: definitions, industry terminology, design, 

applications, installation, operation and maintenance guidelines, in addition to widely-accepted HI Test Standards.
