Electric valve EcoFlow®

threadedstainless steelcorrosion-resistant

The EcoFlow® mechanical seal water support valve is designed with a thermal wax motor to protect mechanical seals on pumps from overheating. This valve provides an optimum seal environment for mechanical seals, while drastically reducing water consumption and significantly increasing cost savings. Operation The EcoFlow® mechanical seal support system contains a highly reliable and repeatable thermal actuator that continuously senses the seal water temperature. If the seal water should exceed the specified factory set-point, the valve will modulate open discharging the hot water, displacing it with cool water. This cooler water will cause the EcoFlow® to modulate closed. This cycle will continue to occur as long as excessive heat is transferred to the seal water causing the water temperature to exceed the valve’s factory set-point. Typical Applications The EcoFlow® valve is installed on the seal water outlet of a mechanical seal to maintain a constant seal water outlet temperature. This increases seal life by ensuring an optimum seal environment while drastically reducing water consumption and significantly increasing cost savings.
