nikunjmalaviya,

This may come as a shock to you, but the rating is directly related to the size of the motors connected to the pumps.

You give NO INFORMATION that is useful.

Look on the nameplates of the motors you have. Do you know what they look like?

The "normal" method for asking an informative, precise question is to provide enough information so people know what you are asking. This means to not use any undefined acronyms like i.d. or f.d. or nd. While it is unlikely that you are referring to a frequency dependent fan or a neutral density fan or even an incremental displacement fan, I can think of scenarios that these could be valid acronyms.

ID and FD are fairly common terms for fans, but I have no idea what ND would mean with regards to feed water pumps.

But other than that, your question is still meaningless. Fans and pumps are "rated" to do the work you expect them to perform. I don't see an issue to question here. It's like asking "How long is a piece of rope?"

OK, I'll bite the offered lure. Is ID Inner Diameter and FD Fan Diameter?

Induced Draft and Forced Draft fans, basically Suck or Blow... usually in relation to a boiler air supply.
