• New requirement: The hydrostatic test pressure multiplier has been clarified. For cast casings: 1.5 x MAWP (Maximum Allowable Working Pressure). For fabricated casings: 1.25 x MAWP.
• Implication: Fabricated pumps (common in seawater and slurry services) no longer get a "free pass" on lower test pressures.

API 610 13th Edition: Comprehensive Review

1. Overview & Context

Released in 2024 (jointly with ISO 13709), the 13th Edition of API 610 remains the definitive standard for heavy-duty, overhung, between-bearing, and vertically suspended centrifugal pumps. It continues to prioritize reliability, mechanical integrity, and lifecycle cost over first cost—critical for continuous, hazardous, and high-temperature services. class API610PumpVerification: def init (self

5. API 610 13th Edition vs. ISO 13709: What’s the Difference?

While the 12th edition was largely in sync with ISO 13709:2009, the API 610 13th Edition has diverged slightly. ISO is expected to release an updated version later, but currently:
