A supplement enclosed with the 10/98 "Chemical Processing" magazine
(Putnam Publications) had a brief note from Goulds (Pump mfr.) regarding
life cycle costs for pumps. They indicated a distribution of 41%
maintenance cost, 30% operating costs and (inferred balance) 29% capital
cost. Of course, the details need to be found out (cost structures, %
ATROI, pump type(s)). The magazine (even "articles") has a high
advertising orientation but is a good source for practical info. The
company may provide you with more details and, possibly, their data base.

Good Luck,
Richard Tave, P.E.
