PLAN 52-53A

Description

The 24 liters reservoir (Fluiten code SDP-024), designed according to the latest API 682 standard, works under the same principles of 8 and 12 liters reservoirs, reducing emissions to the atmosphere when Plan 52 is considered, or eliminating them on 53A configuration. Instruments included in the basic design are pressure transmitter, level transmitter and level indicator, which can be locally checked by operators on-site.

• Reservoir in AISI 316.
• Welded level indicator (external flanged version also available).
• Quick coupling, for fast refilling time.
• Integrated pipes for cooling water connection.
• Switches instead of transmitters availablility: low level, high level, pressure switch. This solution can be provided if accepted by the end user.

• Sized to remove heat generated by the seal faces through flushing fluid circulation, ensuring proper lubrication of the sealing surfaces.
• Reduction of process fluid emissions to the atmosphere (Plan 52): hazardous services, where emissions must be limited.
• No emission of process fluid to the atmosphere (Plan 53A): toxic services where emissions are not allowed.

CAUTION!
Plan 52 solution works effectively with fluids having a vapor pressure higher than 1 bar, while it is not suggested if the process fluid is very stable (vapor pressure lower than 1 bar), in this case it will tend to settle in the tank, therefore a periodic cleaning of the system itself is recommended. Fluiten can suggest the type of flushing fluid.
