Accommodates Loss of Barrier Gas for Greater Sealing Reliability
Chesterton has developed technology that makes the use of a gas seal easy and intuitive. The 4400 delivers higher reliability with lower gas consumption than conventional gas-lubricated seals.
Transitions to a traditional liquid seal in the event of the loss of barrier gas and recovers to a gas seal upon restoring the barrier gas
Compact flush mount design that does not require modification of the stuffing box; fits more equipment types than conventional gas seals
Innovative in-Gland Control System (IGCS) dynamically controls gas pressure to process pressure
Features
Zero fugitive emission, monitoring exempt, dual gas seal design
Full sealing recovering following loss of barrier gas
Unique design minimizes profiled gas face wear due to loss of barrier fluid
Seal transitions to a contacting wet mode during gas disruptions for greater sealing reliability
In-Gland Control System (IGCS) dynamically tracks process pressure to minimize gas consumption
No heat generation
Designed for ANSI/API pumps, compressors, and blowers
