Dimensions, items and descriptions as for MTX-DN, but with optimized seal face geometry
for pressurized operation according to API Plan 53/54. A barrier fluid system (e.g.
Sealmatic BFS2000) is necessary
Pressure: p1 = 10 bar (145 PSI)
Speed = 20 m/s (66 ft/s)
Barrier fluid circulation system:
p3max = 16 bar (232 PSI)
Δp (p3 – p1) ideal = 2 … 3 bar (29 … 44 PSI)
Δp (p3 – p1) max = 16 bar (232 PSI) API Plan 53/54
Pump startup:
Δp (p3 – p1) max = 16 bar (232 PSI) allowed
