For cartridge-type seals, specific flush plans and seal chamber designs are specified to ensure the seal environment is properly cooled, cleaned, and lubricated. High-temperature applications may necessitate separate cooling housings for the mechanical seal to survive the thermal load.

The 12th Edition represented a major overhaul, arriving a decade after the 11th Edition (2010). It introduced new philosophies, refined pump classifications, and aligned less directly with ISO 13709, preferring instead to reference other API standards. Now, the 13th Edition draft builds on that foundation with further structural and technical adjustments.

While the 13th Edition draft may have removed the "Standard Baseplate" appendix, the importance of a robust support structure remains paramount. The baseplate is not just a mounting platform; it is a critical structural component that maintains alignment between the pump and its driver.

Impellers are mounted axially between two bearing housings, ideal for high-flow or high-pressure applications. VS1, VS2, VS3, VS4, VS5, VS6, VS7

The draft has included references to newer technologies, such as API Standard 20S
