Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM's) are very important for Flowserve FSD. Therefore Flowserve is committed to develop and supply designs for special equipment and for special duty requirements.

Centrifugal compressors and other turbomachinery are critical to the operation of a process plant. Selecting a manufacturer with well proven state-of-the-art low friction dry gas seals who can offer full field maintenance support is very important.

In chemical, pharmaceutical, food and oil refinery process plants diverse systems are employed for agitating, blending and mixing products. The units require low maintenance operation and safety, both to protect the environment and the workplace.

Gas seal technology and gas seal operation depends on aerostatic and aerodynamic forces. Careful design keeps the two faces separated by a gas film. Aerodynamic forces are created by the presence of a 'pattern' on one of the faces

Flowserve has developed a complete range of sealing products for all types of slurries. They are engineered to perform and built to last.
