ABSTRACT:
A plunger base module for a selected number of vertically extending cylindrical plunger canisters each having a bottom surface and including a set of service conduits including plunger up, plunger down, and counterblow/vacuum or cooling, with each of the service conduits in a plunger canister having a selectively located inlet port communicating with the bottom surface of the plunger canister. The plunger base module includes a permanent plunger distribution base having a top surface and a plurality of sets of service conduits, each set including plunger up, plunger down, and counterblow/vacuum or cooling. Each plunger distribution base service conduit has an outlet port communicating with the top surface. A removable transition plate has a bottom surface for engaging the top surface of the plunger distribution base and a top surface. The transition plate has a number, equal to the number of plunger canisters, of sets of service conduits, each set including plunger up, plunger down, and counterblow/vacuum or cooling. Each of the service conduits in the transition plate has an inlet port in the transition plate bottom surface for communicating with a corresponding outlet port in the plunger distribution base and has an outlet port in the transition plate top surface selectively located to communicate with a corresponding inlet port in a plunger canister positioned on the transition plate. The plunger distribution base also includes a valve for selectively blocking the flow of the services to the transition plate.
