Cyclone Separators

Cyclone Separators are typically used in an API Plan arrangement and incorporated in the seal Flush line (API Plan 11) from the discharged of the pumps.

This is designed to supply clear fusing fluid for lubrication to mechanical seal in seal chamber. This is fitted in Between pump discharge and seal flush port line ,to remove abrasive partials which ca cause damage to mechanical seal and reduce its recommended operational life.

Due to centrifuging action of the fluid ,cyclone in generated in the cyclone separator and 80% of abrasive partials are separated and sent back to pump section.
