What is BS EN 60609-1 - Cavitation pitting evaluation about?

BS EN 60609-1 is a technical specification as a part of IEC 60609 series that serves as a basis for the formulation of guarantees applied to cavitation pitting for reaction hydraulic turbines, storage pumps, and pump turbines. BS EN 60609-1 addresses the measurement and evaluation of the amount of cavitation pitting on certain specified machine components for given conditions, which are defined in the contract by output, specific hydraulic energy ( E ), speed, material, operation, etc. The cavitation-pitting evaluation is based on the loss of material during a given time and under accurately de...
