5.5 PUMP SEAL SERVICE
A. The coolant pump seal is a carbon/niresist

B. The operator can determine the pump seal
isleakingwhenuidisidentiedleaking
from the pump case adapter. Generally, a
pump seal will leak due to inadequate unit
pressure,excessiveowandpooruid
quality.
C. The operator should follow this procedure to replace the
pump seal:
1. Disengage process operations according to the
procedure outlined in section 3.4. The operator

must verify the proper lockout procedures are
