Concern for a clean environment, efficient energy use and life
cycle optimization in the process industries motivated the search
for better sealing solutions for industrial equipment such as
pumps, compressors and agitators. Gas-lubricated mechanical seals
have been successfully applied on compressors for many years.
Consequently the technology was rapidly applied to pump
applications.
Over five years of experience in many pump applications has proven
