Dry gas seals have revolutionized API Class Turbo-machinery sealing technology with many positive benefits. However, reliable operation of dry gas seals requires robust and properly designed support systems. Dry gas seal failures can result from inadequately designed support systems. In particular, insufficient process labyrinth gas velocities, the presence of liquids, aerosols and/or particulate in seal gas supply streams along with inadequate monitoring instrumentation and controls can be detrimental to reliable dry gas seal operation resulting in costly down-time and outages.

While dry gas seals have revolutionized turbomachinery sealing technology, they are also a common failure point due to the sensitive nature of the seal. Particulate or liquid in a gas stream can break a dry gas seal and bring down an entire process, often appearing in gas streams thought to be clean. Additionally, operations typically require robust, sophisticated monitoring of the gas streams to ensure that the seals are functioning properly.

With a president currently involved in drafting the new API-692 offshoot of API-614 for dry gas seal panels and conditioning systems, G.J. Oliver, Inc. is on the cutting edge of dry gas seal system design to enhance reliability. As experts in the field, G.J. Oliver, Inc. engineers address liquid knockout, heating, filtration, control regulation and instrumentation monitoring to achieve trouble-free, reliable system operation as well as maintainability.
