About this product
Centrifugal compressors fitted with dry gas seals report impressive reliability statistics — and their secret to success is an uninterrupted supply of clean seal gas. The Flowserve Ampliflow T-Boost is an electrically driven seal gas booster that improves operational reliability by continuously delivering seal gas during periods of low differential pressure.
Features and Benefitss
Provides seal gas during periods of low available differential pressure to allow unlimited pressurized protection of the dry gas seal, improving compressor uptime
Higher energy efficiency eliminates eddy current losses and reduces operation costs.
Hermetically safe design assures zero leakage of gas through boundaries.
High-pressure containment shell around the magnetic coupling withstands all pressure conditions, including MAWP.
Minimum wearing parts reduces maintenance requirements compared to competitive designs and helps to achieve MTBR of 24,000 operating hours.
Easy to set up and connect to existing dry gas seal support systems
Retrofit/upgrade option with pneumatic-driven piston boosters to extend reliability and application range
Innovative drive system with an intelligent motor controller provides the right flow and pressure over a variable compressor operating window.
One or two impeller designs possible to meet application requirements
