Baseplates comes in as many configurations, design, and styles as there are pump models. No matter the design, the main purpose of the baseplate is to mount the pump and driver together, while maintaining the shaft alignment between the two pieces of equipment.The primary objective of this paper is to observe different types of baseplates based on the standards specified by American petroleum institute in API610.The theoretical study related to the selection of baseplate structural members carried out by finite element analysis using ANSYS to check the structural stiffness of the base plate.
