Abstract
A pump for pumping a cryogenic liquid includes a pump housing having a cylinder with a piston slidably positioned therein. An intermediate fluid chamber that receives an intermediate fluid is defined within the cylinder adjacent to a first end of the piston and a fluid pumping chamber is defined within the cylinder adjacent to a second end of the piston. An intermediate fluid seal is attached to the piston and engages the cylinder. A pumped fluid seal attached to the piston and configured to engage the cylinder, said pumped fluid seal spaced from the intermediate fluid seal so that a differential pressure space is defined within the cylinder between the intermediate fluid and pumped fluid seals. A differential pressure vent valve is in fluid communication with the differential pressure space. A differential pressure switch senses a pressure within the differential pressure space and opens the differential pressure vent valve when the pressure within the differential pressure space reaches a predetermined pressure level.
