SmartFlow - Intelligent Seal Water Control System


SmartFlow intelligent seal water control system uses seal water only when the mechanical seal truly requires cooling. The purpose of seal water is to cool a mechanical seal and lubricate the seal faces. Each seal type has specific flow requirements for seal water. Exceeding these flow requirements does not bring any benefit and generates extra costs due to increased water consumption. SmartFlow satisfies the increasing need to protect our environment and reduce seal water usage and associated costs.
