Determine the flow rate: Calculate the flow rate based on the specific requirements for water usage or liquid transport.

Determine the flow rate: Calculate the flow rate based on the specific requirements for water usage or liquid transport.
Determine the head: Calculate the vertical height from the water source to the destination, and account for pipe friction losses.
Consider the medium characteristics: Clearly identify the temperature, corrosiveness, solid content, and viscosity of the fluid being conveyed, and select the appropriate pump material and type based on these properties.
Consider the working environment: Pay attention to the installation location and conditions of the pump, as well as how altitude affects pump performance.
Choose the pump type: Select the appropriate pump type based on flow rate, head range, and your specific application scenario.
Determine the motor power: Based on factors such as flow rate, head, and medium characteristics, combined with pump efficiency, calculate the motor power using a formula—and then select a motor with a slightly higher power rating than the calculated value.
