API 610 13th Edition is the forthcoming standard for centrifugal pumps in the petroleum, petrochemical, and natural gas industries. It follows the 12th Edition, which was released in January 2021. While API typically reviews and updates its standards every five years, this new iteration is expected to refine requirements for pump reliability, safety, and performance in critical industrial applications.
API 610 (often paired with ISO 13709) specifies requirements for , Between-Bearings (BB) , and Vertically Suspended (VS) pumps. Unlike dimensional standards like ANSI, API 610 focuses on robust construction to handle extreme temperatures, high pressures, and critical emissions.
