Description
When continuous quenching is not available, static quench (Plan 51 according to API 682, Fluiten code SDP-003) can be an alternative solution. This tank can be used to prevent ice formation in cryogenic services, salt deposition in salty water services and air intrusion when the pump operates at pressures below atmospheric one. This device must be connected to the Quench (Q) of the mechanical seal.
- Material: AISI 316.
- 3 liters tank, for long operating time.
- Compatibility with a wide range of liquids.
- Reduction or zero salt deposition or ice formation on the seal atmospheric side.
- Preventing air entrance into equipment operating below atmospheric pressure.
- Maintaining proper seal faces lubrication.
CAUTION!
Plan 51 should be combined with a segmental bushing or lip seal mounted on the seal flange to reduce leakage to atmosphere, increasing the average time between refilling.
