Technical Features:
1.High-strength,High-performance seal materials for optimal performance.
2.Balanced design with precisely calculated face pressure ratio to reduce face load and minimize heat generation.
3.Stationary multiple springs design – minimizes centrifugal effects for consistent spring performance and reliable sealing.
4.Built-in flush circulation system – enhances fluid flow efficiency and optimizes seal operating conditions.
5.Large-cross-section sealing rings maintain floatability while enhancing sealing performance.
6.Highly reliable drive design effectively prevents slippage.
Solution Selection:
A barrier/buffer fluid system is required to provide lubrication and cooling for seal operation. The barrier fluid pressure is typically maintained 0.14~0.41 MPa above the seal chamber pressure.
For the inner seal, appropriate flush plans (Plan 11, 21, or 32) can be selected based on operating conditions. The barrier fluid system generally adopts Plan 53A or 53B, with Plan 54 also available as an option.
