With years of extensive experience in sealing technology, we have demonstrated our knowledge and ability to innovate in numerous projects all around the world. Discover the exciting challenges we have faced and how we have overcome them.
Poor lubrication and sliding faces in hard-hard pairing - there are better conditions for the perfect functioning of a seal. EagleBurgmann nevertheless reliably seals the agitator of a fermenter for the production of biocultures for the long term.
The chemical company Global Amines is one of the worldwide leading manufacturers of special chemicals. The "Southeast Bavarian Chemical Triangle", near Altötting, Germany is the location of the Gendorf plant. Global Amines produces preliminary, intermediate and finished chemical products here. EagleBurgmann successfully converted a chemical standard pump from a competitor's seal to an EagleBurgmann DF-M7N DiamondFace mechanical seal and achieved significantly increased pump and system availability.
For the unmanned pump station of a Canadian oil pipeline, EagleBurgmann developed a single seal that can be used flexibly for several pump types and meets the highest safety requirements even up to 99 bar (1,440 PSI).
In a chemical plant in Japan, a pump is used to transport molten sulfur. Crystallized sulfur in the area of the shaft seal led to contamination and enormous maintenance costs. Since retrofitting to the EagleBurgmann SulfurAce mechanical seal the pump offers optimal availability. The working environment is clean and employees are secure from hazardous substances.
A seal for a shaft diameter of 550 mm (21.65") – an absolutely thrilling dimension for EagleBurgmann. In close cooperation with the customer, we developed a durable and robust solution to help increase the overall efficiency of the pump in an Austrian reservoir power plant.
In a natural-gas processing plant in Australia, moisture and dirt directly infiltrated the compressor seal via the supply gas. The operating conditions could not be changed, but the seal certainly could.
A boiler circulation pump in a power plant conveys very hot and pressurized water. The pump has no cooling jacket, which increases the risk of a thermosiphon effect.
The 275 km OSVAT pipeline network carries about 55 % of the crude oil explored in Brazil. In 12 Sulzer heavy duty pumps, which maintain the fast flow of crude oil from the wells to the final destination, several wear-free mechanical seals with DiamondFace technology operate without failure and provide economic advantages for the owner.
In a nuclear power station, the requirements for mechanical seals are very high. EagleBurgmann successfully supplied a DiamondFace coated mechanical seal, type SAF(P)I for a boiler feed pump in a power plant in Southern Germany.
Reduce maintenance costs for seal supply systems and extend MTBR intervals - EagleBurgmann's task was to significantly improve the availability of unmanned pump stations in a gas pipeline in Texas with single seals for multifluid pumps.
In Germany, crude oil production amounts to 3.7 million tons per year. EagleBurgmann and a leading pump manufacturer conducted a successful field test with SGR mechanical seals.
The handling of latex is a major engineering challenge for the mechanical seals that are used on pumps and reactors. One of the German EagleBurgmann service centers collaborates with the operator of the Marl Chemical Park, and has been supplying it with individual sealing solutions for many years.
Darlington Nuclear Generating Station in Canada provides about 20 % of Ontario's electricity needs. EagleBurgmann equipped 16 Sulzer pumps with a newly designed sealing system according to API plan 23.
Cruise liners have to reduce their sulfur emissions in Emission-Controlled Areas (ECAs). To accomplish this, light fuel oil is used in coastal regions - with significant consequences for the ship's fuel supply.
