Product Information

Lastly, a system to control flow to the separation seal is required. All these components are needed to provide an efficient system for controlling the supply and quality of gases to the dry gas seal and to monitor the seal’s health. We present the Dry Seals or a sealing system for solids that have a technology to permit a complete seal with no lubrication need.

John Crane Inc. issued a patent for dry gas seals in 1968 with field applications beginning in 1975, though the technology is now widely available among seal manufacturers. When the technology is aimed at correcting the problems with dry gas film environments by eliminating friction. Soon, the technology became a common replacement for other lubricated seals. The patented spiral-groove (constant depth / variable diameter) technology of the dry gas seal allows for easy lifting and separation of seal faces during operation. Also the dry gas seal lift geometry can be unidirectional or bidirectional, depending on the specific design of the lifting geometry. Dry Seals adapt to all kind of equipments thanks to a floating design of the flange, helping to easily assemble to a bearing to simplify the system. Before a water repellent impregnation is carried out, crusts of dirt and pollutants as well as efflorescence, algae and moss must be removed by a suitable cleaning procedure. Cleaning opens the pores and capillaries, allowing them to absorb the impregnation agent. Available utilities can affect which seal configuration is used. Other aspects to consider include: Through all this, many dry gas seal designs were identified as unsuited for the applications in which they were installed—including the use of improper materials of selection that resulted in seal failures, incorrectly installed seals that limited seal life and poor dry-gas-seal panel designs that caused unnecessary compressor shutdowns. In many instances, when designing dry gas seal panels, little consideration has been given to piping configurations, auxiliary systems and utility costs even though all these affect the reliability of dry gas seals.When the rotating seat is turned fast enough to pump gas between the rotating seat and the stationary face

Each factor must be analyzed to identify what is required for the application. When selected correctly, they will provide the best dry gas seal system and deliver the highest reliability achievable from dry gas seals. Not only will this provide reliable dry gas seals with a minimum of six years mean time between repairs (MTBR), it will also reduce utility, maintenance and repair costs. The inspection of the seal can help identify the root-cause of high flow of the primary vent. If the primary seal faces are damaged or deteriorated, it could be deduced that the leakage path is the primary seal itself. Meanwhile, if the primary seal faces are in good condition, it can be determined that high primary vent gas leakage is not caused by damage to the primary seal faces. In such a case, other root-causes and leakage paths should be examined. Double opposed seal - Used when the processed gas is abrasive (like hydrogen) and lower pressure designs.

Dryseal can easily accommodate most complex roof detailing and can be used on flat and low pitched roofs, on garages, extensions, or to replicate lead sheet on heritage buildings. A dry gas seal creates a film of gas (3) between a rotating seat (1) and a stationary face (2). This film of gas (or gap) between the seal faces must be generated and maintained at 150 to 200 micro-inches so the seal faces do not touch and the smallest amount of gas is allowed to leak through the seal. The inner labyrinth seal (or process labyrinth seal) plays an important role in the performance and reliability of a turbocompressor and its dry gas seals. The differential pressure across the inner labyrinth seal should be carefully monitored. This differential pressure needs to be maintained at a relatively constant designed value for uninterrupted and stable flow. A low seal gas flow (to process side) may cause migration of dirty process gas into the seal. A high flow may cause the flow coefficient in the system to exceed the designed value, creating detrimental flow turbulence, as well as inefficient performance. The quality of the seal supply gas must also be assessed to ensure that no liquids are formed during changes in gas pressure and temperature. The seal gas will drop in pressure from the supply pressure all the way to the atmospheric side as it leaks through the dry gas seal. Factors that can influence seal gas temperature are process gas temperature or environmental conditions, which can drop the temperature of pipes or the compressor to the point that liquid will form in the seal gas supply. All these conditions must be identified to ensure that no liquids form that will affect the operation of the dry gas seal during dynamic as well as static conditions. Lubrication oil is another important root-cause of seal failures. The first section that will be contaminated by lubrication oil is the barrier seal (the separation seal). For such cases, there will be oil ingress past the barrier seal. The second section that will be contaminated is the secondary seal. If the lubrication oil can pass through barrier seal and contaminate the secondary seal, the secondary seal may fail, leading to problems with the primary seal (oil ingestion and subsequent failure).
