Functional description
Buffered, gas-lubricated mechanical seals may only be used in conjunction with adequately pressurized gas (e. g. from a closed circular nitrogen pipeline provided by the operator). The minimum pressure overlay level (Δp) is specified for the individual seal types.
Main GSS functions:
- Filtering of the buffer and flushing gas
- Flow monitoring
Typical tasks for the GSS:
- Gas flushing for single seals
- Gas supply for tandem seals
