Process steam turbines present a unique challenge for bearing protection. Also As the carbon rings containing the steam wear, high temperature / high velocity steam travels down the shaft directly at the bearing seal.
Standard OEM labyrinth seals have proven to be ineffective at preventing steam ingress. Also AESSEAL has developed LabTecta designs specifically designed for steam turbine applications.
Features:
For smaller steam turbines, the LabTecta ST design provides excellent protection in a compact package. Also For larger steam turbines, the LabTecta ST-STAX provides easy installation with the capability to accommodate large axial shaft movement.
