Please define your acronyms, sanjay2008. PCP has many meanings, including primary care physician (PCP) - which I doubt you're looking for.

Hi sanjay: Please see API Spec 11D. In advance this:

This standard provides requirements for the design, design verification and validation, manufacturing and data control, performance ratings and repair of progressing cavity pump surface-drive systems for use in the petroleum and natural gas industry. This standard is applicable to those products meeting the definition of surface-drive systems. Additionally, informative annexes provide information on brake system selection, installation, and operation; and sucker rod selection and use. Equipment not covered by this standard, unless integral by design, includes bottom drive systems, sucker-rods, polished rod clamps, stuffing boxes, electrical controls, instrumentation, external power transmission devices, auxiliary equipment, such as belts, sheaves and equipment guards.
