Defines the factor by which all API-610 Table 5 allowables are multiplied. Specify a value between 1.0 and 2.0. Values less than 1.0 are replaced by a default factor of 1.0, while values greater than 2.0 are replaced by a default factor of 2.0. If left blank, a default value of 1.0 is used.

Typically, you use a value of 1.0 when evaluating individual nozzle loads. When checking vertical in-line pumps, this value can be 2.0. The value of 2.0 is also valid when suction and discharge nozzle loads are evaluated together as defined in Appendix F of API-610.
