API Pump Mechanical Seal Flushing Pot

Seal support systems are vital to the reliable functioning of the thousands of pumps that keep a refinery running around the clock. When they are properly designed, installed, and maintained, the seal support systems help ensure pump reliability and maximize the pump life by maintaining the optimum seal chamber conditions.
If you’re new to API plans, you’ll quickly realize that the range of options available in API seal flush plans reflects the range and complexity of the various pumping processes and conditions across a refinery. Choosing the right API seal flush plan is a critical step in ensuring pump reliability.

To keep mechanical seal systems functioning as long as possible, we recommend using standardized seal piping plans. Detailed API seal piping plans ensure minimal seal face wear by maintaining the optimal seal chamber environment.

This article covers best practices in seal piping installation, and outlines API standards for mechanical seal support systems.
