< Back to Process Side Plans API Plan 23 utilizes a circulation device, typically a pumping ring, to route the fluid from the seal chamber through a cooler before returning the cooled fluid to the seal chamber. A throat bushing isolates the cooled seal chamber flush fluid from the hotter pumped liq...

< 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 i...

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...

< Back to Between Seal Plans API Seal Plan 52 utilizes a reservoir and circulates an unpressurized buffer fluid between the inboard and outboard seals. To provide positive circulation through the support system and into the seal, a pumping ring is employed. Frictional losses in the buffer fluid inl...

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 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 typically used ...

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...
