Externally Supplied Barrier Gas

• Use with single seal or dual seal

• Increases circulation

• Increases pressure in sealchamber

• Clean fluids only- Solids can erode seal

• An orifice can can be usedto reduce flow and pressure

• Use with a single seal wherefluid contains some ab1asives

• Cools seal

• Increases seal chamberp1essure

• Density of solids must be significantly greater than fluid

• Use caution with highviscosity fluids

• Requires pressure differential

• Will not remove micronsize particles

• Use with a dual seal

• Pressurize barrier fluid15·30psig (1·2barg)over maximum sealchamber pressure

• Barrier fluid should be dean,compatible and lubricating

• Provides clean fluid 10the inboard seal faces

• Use long sweeps Intubing bends

g,=nr=iilc=;, • Use with a non-volatile gas• Provide gas at 25 psig

(1,7 bar g) above seal chamber pressure

• Venting of the seal chambermay be required prior tostart-up

• Use Nitrogen, Carbon Dioxideor Compressed Air

• Zero emmissions andleakage to atmosphere
