Floating brush seal
October 11, 2013
Developed as a drop-in replacement for Elliott YR process steam turbine carbon rings, the Inpro/Seal Sentinel floating brush seal features densely packed, flexible metallic bristles that bend with changing clearances between rotating and stationary surfaces; the brush serves as the primary shaft seal, while a carbon element provides face sealing in the turbine’s casing. It has a plug-and-play split design.
