External tool guides

Each guide explains when to use official external tools, what inputs to gather, and which calculations can check the setup.

How these directories are used

Check the engineering assumptions first, then use official provider tools where product curves and configuration data matter.

Prepare the inputs

Gather the flow, head, fluid, power, material, and installation constraints before opening a provider tool.

Check the assumptions

Use related calculators and references to catch obvious pressure, head, and velocity issues before product selection.

Open official tools

Follow the checked link to current provider data and review the tool disclosure before leaving the site.

Tool suggestions are curated links, not independent validation of provider outputs. See the source and review policy for how external tools are handled.
