Depressurised quenching fluid tank
The quenching fluid is used for non-pressurised lubrication and cooling of the pump shaft seal. Any leakage
of fluids (pump medium or gear oil) is absorbed by the quenching fluid.
The installation of the quenching fluid tank and the topping up of quenching fluid is as described in
Chapter
"Pressurisable buffer fluid tank".
The instructions for pressurising the tank do not apply in the case of buffer chamber assembly
"depressurised quenching fluid tank".
Please also observe the "Trouble indication" and "Buffer fluid properties" in
