Castanet conducts full technical design studies in accordance with your specifications.
To ensure that our sealing components have a maximum service life, we use the best materials for your specific applications (oil free or lubricated compressors) and most difficult operating conditions.
When recommending high performance materials, it is also essential to offer the optimal design and configuration of the sealing components in order to guarantee a reliable operation of reciprocating compressors.
Castanet has the necessary experience to do this.
- Engineering design for new machines
- Optimal material selection according to gas composition and operating conditions
- Design changes to existing compressors in order to optimize the sealing system (more efficient materials, better design) and prolong their service life
- Engineering and technical support, troubleshooting
- Modification of rod packing cases to minimize the residual leakage of process gases, and to prevent gas emissions to the atmosphere (to meet new environmental regulations)
- Technical backup during compressor revamping
- Bringing compressors into line with API standards
- Conversion of lubricated compressors into oil-free compressors
- Improvement of the friction pair (sealing components / friction counterface ) with high quality wear resistant coatings
