Foreword

This brochure provides basic information about ISO 21049 and API 682. It contains
a set of checklists and summaries which give a brief overview that will help to
select suitable EagleBurgmann sealing systems. ISO 21049 is an international
standard which is based on API 682 (a standard of the American Petroleum Insti-
tute). The content of these two standards is generally identical.

Both standards specify requirements and recommendations for the selection and
operation of shaft sealing systems in new or retrofitted centrifugal and rotary
pumps. They refer to pumps which are mainly used for hazardous, flammable and/
or toxic applications in the petroleum, natural gas and chemical industries.

The improvement of equipment reliability and the reduction of emissions and life-
cycle costs are the major targets of these standards.

The following table summarizes the history of API 682/ ISO 21049 and the pump
standards API 610/ ISO 13709:

Classification of Sealing Systems

API 682 and ISO 21049 specify a range of different sealing systems. Parame-
ters such as category, arrangement, configuration, type and API plans are to be
considered.

The chart overleaf is a quick overview about the basic features of the different
categories, arrangements and seal types. It also shows the links between these
parameters and marks default and optional selections.

Step I: The category determines the applicable seal chamber, basic seal design
features, maximum operating conditions, testing and data requirements. Each
category has special demands regarding the seal arrangement, configuration and
type. There are three different categories.

Step II: Determines the arrangement of the mechanical seal cartridges and their
possible configurations.

The configuration determines the sealing method, orientation of the mechanical


seal components, the use of containment seals and the required API plans. API 682
and ISO 21049 specify six default configurations and five optional configurations.
Each of these configurations can be realized with different seal types.

Step Ill: Definition of the seal type, the design and material of the spring element
and the secondary seals.

How to select the correct EagleBurgmann Sealing System

This chapter is dedicated to find the correct EagleBurgmann Sealing System


according to API 682 / ISO 21049 standard.

Before beginning with the seal selection, some general information:


API 682 and ISO 21049 specify defaults ( ) and options ( ) for several
design details and the selection of the seal materials. The options are only
permitted with the approval of the customer. Therefore typical seal codes always
assume all standard defaults.
The standards do not intend to prevent a vendor from offering or the customer from
requesting alternative equipment or engineered products for special applications.
This may be particulary appropriate where there are options, innovative or developing
designs or materials. Further information shall be provided by the vendor if an option
or any variations to this standard are offered.

How to select the EagleBurgmann sealing system


The tables on page 11 and 12 describe two different ways to select the
EagleBurgmann seal needed for a specific API-application.

Seal selection by seal features


The table on page 11 is used after the arrangement, configuration and seal type is
defined. The table is structured in the same way as the APIscheme on page 5.
Going from left to right, the same three steps have to be made as described on
page 4: by choosing the arrangement, configuration and type required. In the
column Flexible Element you can see if rotary or stationary is the default
or option. The Mechanical Seal column on the right lists the recommended
EagleBurgmann seal type. Further down the page tables for some optional
configurations, recommended API plans and a range of EagleBurgmann Supply
Systems can be found.

Seal selection by media groups


API 682 and ISO 21049 define different media groups and typical service
conditions. The tables on page 12 list EagleBurgmann recommendations for
suitable sealing systems. Some of them include optional configurations. Specific
applications may allow or require other seal arrangements and different API plans.
Please contact us for further information.
In the upper table the seal selection for standard seal types can be found. The table
below is dedicated to optional seals.

Containment Seals Type A

A containment seal is a safety seal. In case of primary seal failure it shall operate
for a minimum of 8 hours at seal chamber conditions. It can be found in the
default configuration 2CW-CS and the optional configuration 2NC-CS
CGSH
Containment seals can be of non-contacting or contacting kind.
Non-contacting containment seals feature aerodynamic grooves which provide
a reliable lift-off of the seal faces even at low velocities.
Contacting containment seals are used in connection with liquid buffer systems
but may also be used as dry running seal in connection with a Nitrogen purge.

API Plans Overview

An API plan determines the piping or auxiliary system which is connected to the
seal chamber or/and the mechanical seal cartridge. Certain seal configurations
only work in combination with appropriate API plans. Other API plans can also
be applied to improve the performance of a mechanical seal. The combination of
external control and supply units which are used to realize a certain API plan is
usually called a Supply System.
