Non-contacting, Metal Bellows, Outward Pumping Dual Pressurized Gas Lubricated Seal Type 2874HTC

Reliably sealing high and low temperature process fluids up to 425°C (800°F), the Type 2874HTC incorporates unique HTC (high-temperature, corrosion-resistant) metal bellows technology with non-contacting gas lubricated technologies.

The 2874HTC is a cost-effective alternative to conventional wet contacting seals supported by various piping plans that provide liquid barriers or quenches to the primary seal interface. Instead of using a wet support system, the advantages of non-contacting gas lubricated technology can be used for reliable operation with either nitrogen, argon, or steam barrier significantly reducing your lifecycle costs.

Product Description Type 2874HTC

  • Non-contacting, outward-pumping, metal bellows, dual-pressurized gas seal that permits reliable operation in high-temperature services
  • High-temperature corrosion (HTC) resistance for reliable sealingin hot hydrocarbon and low-temperature applications with enhanced seal face stability
  • Significantly reduces life-cycle costs compared to conventional wet seals and systems and eliminates problems associated with coking barrier fluids and fouled heat exchangers
  • API 682-qualified
  • Zero fugitive emissions for maximum achievable control technology (MACT) compliance when sealing high temperature, volatile or hazardous fluids
  • For use with API 610 pump and larger bore seal chambers
  • Elastomer-free seal handles a wide range of applications
