Features
- The quench fluid cools the seal faces from underneath and also reduces coking and oxidation of the media by creating a barrier between the seal faces and the atmosphere.
- Flushes away built-up material or solids underneath the seal faces.
- Uses water, steam or nitrogen.
- Applied with or without quench baffle.
Application
- Used with steam to avoid coking or crystallization in hot hydrocarbon services.
- Used with nitrogen to avoid icing in cryogenic services.
- Used for services that tend to salt out e.g. caustic and salt services.
- Applied at horizontal as well as vertical pumps.
Remarks, checkpoints
- It has to be ensured that a close clearance throttle bush is fitted on the atmospheric side of the seal.
- Quench pressure to be maintained between 0.2 to 0.3 barg (2.9 to 4.3 PSIG).
Pump media characteristics
- High temperature
- Leakage may form solids
- Cryogenic
