< Back to Mechanical Seal Support Systems Seal Support System Atmospheric Side Plans Seal Plan Kits Swagelok-built atmospheric side plans for seal support are available as seal plan kits only. Each kitcontains everything needed for proper installation, including an engineered drawing, making it...

API Plan 51 is a quench system for use on the atmospheric side of a single seal. This system acts as a dead-ended reservoir for a fluid. API Plan 51 Kit contents shown solid and include some optional components. This plan: Prevents icing on the atmospheric side of the seal Is typic...

API Plan 62 delivers an external quench fluid to the atmospheric side of the seal. A typical application in a refinery is the prevention of coking on seal faces in hot hydrocarbon service by employing a steam quench. Nitrogen or clean water may also be used to quench or cool and clean the atmospheri...

API Plan 53A utilizes a reservoir and circulates a pressurized barrier fluid between the inboard and outboard seals. The typical source of pressurization is plant nitrogen. The reservoir should be set at least 20 psi (1.3 bar) above maximum seal chamber pressure. This is to ensure that leakage acros...

API Plan 53B circulates a pressurized barrier fluid between the inboard and outboard seals. The source of pressurization is a bladder accumulator. Plan 53B has the advantage of not allowing gas absorption into the barrier fluid which may allow for operation at higher pressures than Plan 53A. Barrier...

API Plan 53C circulates a pressurized barrier fluid between the inboard and outboard seals. The source of pressurization is a piston accumulator. Plan 53C is preferred for applications where the seal chamber pressure may vary during pump operation. A sensing line is typically run from the seal chamb...

API Plan 54 is a custom engineered system that delivers a pressurized barrier fluid to the seal chamber. The barrier liquid is circulated to and from the seal chamber via a pump located on an external reservoir. This fluid is maintained at a pressure greater than that found in the seal chamber. A Pl...

API Plan 55 is a custom engineered system that delivers an unpressurized buffer fluid to the seal chamber. The buffer liquid is circulated to and from the seal chamber via a pump located on an external reservoir. A Plan 55 can contain filters, coolers, and other components that are selected accordin...

API Plan 72 supplies a buffer gas from an external source between the inboard and outboard seals. For reliable operation, gas seals require a constant supply of clean, dry gas, typically nitrogen. The seal support panel contains a coalescing filter to remove any moisture and particulate present in t...

< Back to Between Seal Plans API Plan 74 supplies a pressurized barrier gas from an external source between the inboard and outboard seals. For reliable operation, dual pressurized gas seals require a constant supply of clean, dry gas, typically nitrogen. The seal support panel contains a coalesci...
