How to get info about Low Flow High Head Pump
(OP)
I have a pump requirement for 60 gpm @ 1300 psig and I want to know what type of pump to use and which manufacturer has suitable selection for this application. Thanks

Efficiency on the Sundyne will be a lot lower than the PD but you'll have the ability to modulate flow directly by throttling the pump discharge where the PD would need a recirculation loop.
There are a lot of other people much more experienced in this than I am, will be interesting to see if I'm close

What are you pumpin?? What is the liquid temperature & properties ???
At 1300 psid, you are into a small multi-stage centrifugal pump design...... kind of like a small boiler feed pump for a 30,000 lb/hr boiler
Try Goulds pump......they offer the model 3935 which is a horizontal axis, multi stage centrifugal unit. Also look at the multi-staged (radial split) ring pump.... the model 3310.
I believe Ingersol-Dresser pump (now owned by FLOWSERVE) has a similar models...... try www.flowserve.com
Consider a used boiler feed pump.... they are available from cancelled/scraped power projects.
Also, give some thought to minimum flow protection devices.... you will have the same problems as the boiler feed pumps do.....
Good Luck
