Fluid end packing assembly

A seal packing assembly for a hydraulic pump includes a plurality of annular dynamic seals disposed within annular grooves circumferentially defined in the annular bore, a packing gland circumferentially housing a section of the plunger, and a plurality of seal manifolds distributed and defined within the packing gland, each seal manifold defining a port at one end exposed to the pumping fluid and further defining a clean lubrication fluid inlet proximate to a second end, the fluid inlet coupled to a lube pump via a check valve, where the clean lubrication fluid housed in the seal manifolds is maintained at a constant pressure. Each seal manifold includes a piston disposed within the seal manifold having a first end configured with a first surface area to interface with the pumping fluid and a second end configured with a second surface area to interface with the clean lubrication fluid, and a fluid port configured to provide fluid communication between the seal manifold and the annular grooves of the annular dynamic seals.
