Chesterton has developed technology that makes the use of a gas seal easy and intuitive. The 4400 delivers higher reliability with lower gas consumption than conventional gas-lubricated seals.
Transitions to a traditional liquid seal in the event of the loss of barrier gas and recovers to a gas seal upon restoring the barrier gas
Compact flush mount design that does not require modification of the stuffing box; fits more equipment types than conventional gas seals
Innovative in-Gland Control System (IGCS) dynamically controls gas pressure to process pressure.
Features and benefits
- Zero fugitive emission, monitoring exempt, dual gas seal design
- Full sealing recovering following loss of barrier gas
- Unique design minimizes profiled gas face wear due to loss of barrier fluid
- Seal transitions to a contacting wet mode during gas disruptions for greater sealing reliability
- In-Gland Control System (IGCS) dynamically tracks process pressure to minimize gas consumption
- No heat generation
- Designed for ANSI/API pumps, compressors, and blowers
