Externally pressurized porous gas bearings are being applied in seal applications for rotating equipment.
Seals
Sealing solutions are critical to pumping to prevent leakage and, ultimately, failure. These are especially important in harsh conditions, whether from particulates, extreme temperature, or corrosive or heavily viscous fluid. The selection of the right seal can have as much impact on the system success as pump selection. These articles help with that selection and with the monitoring and maintaining of all types of seals.
Lower coupling restoring forces can increase bearing and seal life.
These systems must stand up to extreme pressures, destructive process chemicals and marine environments.
Pumping Prescriptions
Understanding the manufacturing process that produced the equipment, as well as the production and cleaning processes for which the equipment is used, is vital for efficient operation.
