API Plan 23
Circulation of pumped fluids from the discharge to the seal flush connection, passing through a flow rate controller and a heat exchanger.
API Plan 31
Circulation of the pumped fluid from the pump discharge to the seal chamber, passing through a cyclone. Fluids with solids are returned to the suction area.
API Plan 51
Static column of non pressurised fluid inside a tank, through the quench connection.
API Plan 52
Forced circulation of an external non-pressurised fluid used as a barrier fluid.
This fluid is circulated through a pumping ring due to the thermo-siphon effect.
API 53A Plan
Forced circulation through a pumping ring of a barrier fluid in a pressurised tank with a pressure that is 2 bar higher than the product fluid.
API Plan 62
Injection of an external fluid to be used for quenching and flushing/washing. The quench lubricates the seal contact surfaces on the air side, with vapour or water. The flushing/washing operation has a lubricating function.
