3 Single Seal Piping and OperationalRecommendation

3.1 Install an adequate seal flush system. The ISC requires a clean

cool environment for maximum seal life. With a clean cool product,

use a bypass flush from the pump discharge (piping plan 11*) or a

bypass flush to the pump suction (piping plan 13). With clean hot

products use a bypass flush through a cooler (piping plan 21). With

abrasive products or products that are incompatible with the seal,

use a flush from a clean external source (piping plan 32).
