my question is :

Thanks in advance for your help.

If you've bought it as a single item, most pump vendors supply NPSHR at the centre line or face (for vertical pointing flanges) of the inlet flange.

Only the vendor / vendor supplied design manual can tell you for sure.

Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.
 
yes I have the NPSHr from the vendor datasheet 0m at datum and 1.2m at the grade.
