🔍 Key Concepts

• Stuffing box function and location on a centrifugal pump • Difference between venting air and supplying sealing water in a packing gland • How item numbers on the parts list (left side of GS-0012) match the arrows and labels on the sectional drawing

💭 Think About

• Look at where item 31 is physically connected on the drawing: Is it on a water supply line leading into the stuffing box, or on a flange/connection elsewhere? • Trace the path of sealing water to the packing rings: which numbered parts clearly form that path, and is 31 one of them? • Ask yourself: if air needed to be vented from the stuffing box, where would a vent connection most likely be placed compared to where item 31 actually is?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match the label 31 on the illustration to the description in the parts list to confirm exactly what type of component it is (pipe, flange, vent, etc.). • Verify whether any vent or sealing water connections are identified by other item numbers, and see how they differ from item 31. • Confirm the location relative to the packing rings and lantern ring; this tells you whether 31 could realistically vent air from, or supply water to, the stuffing box.
