Description

Leakage detection system, normally used with single seals, to check the mechanical seal conditions. If the seal is damaged, level inside the 5 liters tank increases in a shorter time than when the seal operates correctly, activating level alarm. The system is equippped with an orifice (Plan 65A) or a normally closed valve (Plan 65B).

  • Low space requirements thanks to its compact design.
  • Integrated monitoring level, for reliable operation.
  • By-pass line, to drain the flow in case of abnormal leakage.
  • Use of an orifice (Plan 65A) or a normally closed valve (Plan 65B).
  • According to API 682, should be designed to withstand pump MAWP.
  • Liquid phase leakage detection from the mechanical seal atmospheric side, but also containment and collection to a safe area.
  • Normally used to detect leakages of finished products therefore expensive for the plant.

CAUTION!
The leakage on the seal atmospheric side must condense. The tank must be placed at a lower level than seal drain connection.
