This standard specifies the technical requirements for pumps designed to pump water and other liquids with similar physical and chemical properties. These pumps are typically used in industrial water supply systems, thermal power engineering, and mining operations where high pressure is required. Key Specifications According to RussianGost , the standard covers:

Classification of multistage centrifugal pumps based on their design and application.

In many jurisdictions, it has been superseded or supplemented by newer standards such as GOST 10407-2014, which aligns more closely with modern international safety and efficiency requirements.

is a technical standard from the Interstate Council for Standardization, Metrology and Certification (originally the Soviet GOST system). It defines the types and basic parameters for centrifugal multistage segmental pumps .

Nominal values for flow rate (capacity) and head (pressure).

Guidelines for the segmental design, which allows for increasing pressure by adding more stages (impellers) within the pump housing. Current Status Designation: GOST 10407-88.

Originally introduced in 1988, replacing earlier versions like GOST 10407-70.
