Plan 51 (Quench Pot)
Why do we use it?
- When crystalisation or icing on the atmospheric side of the seal is likely and could cause damage to the seal
- When a Plan 62 quench supply is unavailible or impractical
- Usually only recommended for vertical pumps
Advantages:
Can be used to retard/prevent crystallization or icing on atmospheric side of seal.
General:
Careful selection of auxiliary sealing device required to prevent escape of blanket fluid from reservoir.
NOTE:
May not be possible to achieve a 3-year operating life dependant on type of auxiliary sealing device used.
