A. Scope.
A.1 This section II applies only to circulator pumps sold with only external input signal controls and circulator pumps sold with external input signal controls in addition to other control varieties.

B.1 Adjust the speed of the pump using a manual speed adjustment or with a simulated external signal to activate the external signal input control to achieve flow rates of 25, 50, 75, and 100 percent of the BEP flow rate as determined according to section I.E.2 of this appendix with head values that are at or above the reference system curve defined in section I.E.3 of this appendix. Measure the driver power input at those flow rates.
B.1.1 All tested flow values must be within 5 percent of the target flow load points as specified by the reference system curve.
B.1.2 For tested head values more than 10
percent above the head load points specified by the reference system curve, adjust the tested driver power input to the specified flow point using the following equation:
