Mechanical Seal Support Systems
SIMPLIFIED INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
Mechanical seals are critical components in rotating equipment, but they are prone to failure. In fact, nearly 40% of all unscheduled critical pump shutdowns are caused by mechanical seal failures. When rotating equipment fails, it's often due to a seal failure.
Controlling Leakage and Maximizing Seal Life
Swagelok's Mechanical Seal Support Systems are designed to maximize the life of mechanical seals and the reliability of rotating equipment by:
- Maintaining proper lubrication
- Controlling system pressure
- Providing properly conditioned fluid flows
By optimizing these key factors, our seal support systems help minimize leakage and extend the service life of mechanical seals. This leads to fewer unplanned shutdowns, reduced maintenance costs, and improved productivity.
SIMPLIFIED INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
Swagelok Mechanical Seal Support Systems are guided by API 682 and designed to avoid pipe threads to limit the number of leak points wherever possible. Standardization is key in improving efficiency, and our customizable yet repeatable design and assembly results in fast, efficient replacement, maximizing uptime.
