CHEMICAL AND PETROCHEMICAL
In the chemical and petrochemical industries, the usual processes require sealing elements for materials with high chemical resistance. In order to transfer very aggressive or corrosive chemical fluids that are clean or that contain particles and have high viscosities, along with high temperatures and pressures, the mechanical seal materials and the type of assembly must be correctly defined: single, double, external or based on other API plans.
Furthermore, the applications require sealing systems that guarantee safety, preventing the leakage of corrosive or flammable products that could escape the atmosphere.
Specialized Products For Chemical And Petrochemical
Specialized applications such as aggressive acids, high viscous fluids and high-pressure, high-speed polymerizing fluids require extensive materials research and proven designs. Flowway portfolio covers wide range of best engineered design to meet all such extreme applications and requirements.
