INPRO/SEAL – Evaluating Carbon Ring Alternatives
Operators of general-purpose steam turbines have long stated the shortcomings of conventional carbon ring seals. One drawback is wear at the ring’s inner bore, which gradually increases shaft clearance and steam leakage and leads to regular replacement—as often as four times per year. Despite their disadvantages, carbon rings remain the standard in general-purpose steam turbine […]
INPRO/SEAL – Understanding Leaks & Pump Protection
INPRO/SEAL has published two great articles in both Pumps and Systems Magazine and Flow Control.6 Reasons Bearing Isolators Leak Lubricant – Pumps and Systems and Bearing Protection’s Role In Pump Reliability – Flow Control
Predicting Your Pumps Performance
Measuring the flow rate of water is the first step to good water management and can also be very important when installing lawn sprinklers.
Contact-free indirect measurement for hygienic applications
The non-contact mode of measurement is very interesting for hygienic applications in the food-, pharmaceutical- and cosmetics industry, as well as for industrial applications with thick, adhesive and solid containing liquids. Experience has shown that conventional volumetric flow meters quickly come to their limit, while other measuring procedures are often very complex and/or are not […]
