Ampliflow T-Boost Compressor Seals and Systems
The key to success for centrifugal compressors equipped with dry gas seals is a constant supply of clean seal gas. Their claimed dependability rates are excellent. The electrically driven Flowserve Ampliflow T-Boost seals gas booster improves operational dependability by always providing seal gas during low differential pressure periods.

Benefit
- Provides seal gas during periods of low available differential pressure, allowing for indefinite pressured protection of the dry gas seal and boosting compressor uptime.
- Increased energy efficiency avoids eddy current losses and lowers operating expenses.
- Hermetically safe design ensures that no gas leaks through boundaries.
- The high-pressure containment shell around the magnetic coupling can tolerate any pressure situation, including MAWP.
- Minimum wearing parts decrease maintenance requirements when compared to competitor designs, allowing for an MTBR of 24,000 working hours.
- Simple to set up and integrate with existing dry gas seal support systems.
- Retrofit/upgrade option with pneumatic-driven piston boosters to increase dependability and application range.
- An innovative drive system with an intelligent motor controller delivers the appropriate flow and pressure across a variable compressor operating window.
- One or two impeller designs are feasible to suit application requirements.
