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 76 collects leakage from the inboard seal in applications where normal process fluid leakage does not condense between the seals at ambient temperatures. In this piping plan, gaseous leakage from the inboard seal exits through the containment seal vent port in the gland. The orifice creates...

API Plan 13 recirculates flow from the seal chamber to the suction side of the pump. This plan is common for vertical pumps. API Plan 13 Kit components shown solid and include some optional components. This plan: Removes heat and flushes particulate from the seal chamber Allows the...

API Plan 65A monitors leakage in a single seal arrangement. Connected to the drain port on the gland, a reservoir collects normal leakage and is constantly open to drain. In the event of a seal failure, an orifice fitting on the outlet of the system allows a level transmitter to trigger an alarm due...

API Plan 65B monitors leakage in a single seal arrangement. Connected to the drain port on the gland, a reservoir is allowed to collect normal leakage. A level transmitter on the reservoir triggers an alarm in the event of excessive leakage. A valve on the outlet side of the reservoir is typically l...

< Back to Between Seal Plans API Plan 75 collects leakage from the inboard seal in applications where normal process fluid leakage can condense between the seals at ambient temperatures. In this arrangement, a reservoir is connected to the containment seal drain port on the gland. Condensed leakag...

API Plan 14 combines Plan 11 and Plan 13. Flow is recirculated from the pump discharge into the seal chamber and from the seal chamber to the pump suction. Fluid flow is increased since the seal chamber is continuously vented, leading to higher cooling capacity. API Plan 14 Kit components show...

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...

< Back to Process Side Plans API Plan 32 delivers a clean flush fluid into the seal chamber from an external source. Typically used with a close-clearance throat bushing, this arrangement can be used to ensure a higher pressure in the seal chamber. Flush fluid will migrate past the bushing, so it ...

< Back to Process Side Plans API Plan 11 recirculates flow from a high‐pressure section of the pump, typically the discharge piping, through a flow control orifice to the seal. Plan 11 is the default flush plan for most pumps. API Plan 11 Kit components shown solid and include some optional c...
