Steam Turbine Sealing Solutions

Increase Steam Turbine Performance and Reliability

The Importance of Effective Sealing

Process steam turbines are critical equipment used within multiple industries. They are designed to operate for many years, but can perform poorly and fail prematurely due to steam leakage.

Ineffective gland seals allow steam to leak out of the process, reducing equipment efficiency and increasing emissions. Eventually, leaking steam travels down the shaft and enters the bearing case, causing bearing failure which leads to unplanned downtime and decreased equipment reliability.
