Functional description
Flushing gas module
Primary seal gas line or buffer gas line:
Barrier gas module
Secondary seal gas line:
Leakage module
(Primary) vent line:
Separation gas
Separation gas line:
Primary seal gas line or buffer gas line:
- Supplying with filtered and dry flushing gas
- Monitoring and regulating the flow rate and/or the (differential) pressure
- Monitoring the gas filter
- For dual seals, process gas is generally injected in front of the seal as a gas buffer. The actual seal is supplied with nitrogen.
Barrier gas module
Secondary seal gas line:
- Supplying with filtered barrier gas (N2)
- Monitoring and regulating the flow rate and/or the (differential) pressure
- Monitoring the gas filter
Leakage module
(Primary) vent line:
- Monitoring of the leakage from the seal and outputting an alarm when the leakage is out of expected range
- Ensuring the leakage is directed to a flare or flare system
Separation gas
Separation gas line:
- Supplying and monitoring the oil barrier seal with nitrogen or air
- Monitoring and regulating the flow rate and/or the (differential) pressure

GSS Gas supply system
Gas supply systems of the GSS range are specially designed for contact-free operated, gas-lubricated mechanical seals. The gas supplied from the supply network (e.g. air or nitrogen) is regulated/monitored by the GSS in accordance with the requirements of the seals being supplied. The GSS systems are equipped with alarm and/or switch-off points depending on specific safety requirements. Centralized monitoring of the measurement values is also possible on request.
