    Standard conventional liquid mechanical

    GW/BAW

    seals used in integrally geared API pumps


    and compressors including high speed
    and high pressure services.

    GW seals
    Originating from the Flowserve GW gas seal used in LMC in-line compressors, the Flowserve GW liquid seals are traditional,
    flat-faced, hydraulically balanced, OD-pressurized, stationary multi-spring pusher end face mechanical seals run against a
    hard carbide rotor. API 682 refers to this as a Type A seal. An optional PTFE Tec-ring does not produce or transmit moments
    to the stationary face to cause it to lose relative flatness, react to temperature extremes, or hang up due to high
    friction like wedge-shaped PTFE elements can. GW liquid seals can be used in all integrally geared API pumps and
    assembled in any of the standard sealing arrangements: single, dual unpressurized, and dual pressurized.
    - The standard balance liquid GW is recommended for fluids having a specific gravity between 0.60 and 1.50.
    - The high balance liquid GWQ is recommended for light ends having a specific gravity between 0.30 and 0.60.
    - The liquid lube groove GWW is specifically designed for direct drive unit use in hot water services up to 338 F (170 C)
    without the need for external cooling piping plans such as API Plans 21, 23, or 32 that would be costly to install and
    operate.

    BAW seals
    The Flowserve BAW liquid seals are traditional, flat-faced, hydraulically balanced, stationary metal bellows end face mechanical seals
    run against a hard carbide rotor. API 682 refers to this as a Type C seal. The bellows convolutions provide the spring force orienting
    the faces to each other while also acting as the secondary sealing component. The BAW liquid seals can be used in all integrally
    geared API pumps and assembled in any of the standard sealing arrangements: single, dual unpressurized, and dual pressurized.
    Additionally, a BAW single seal can be backed up by a gas seal for light hydrocarbon service or a conventional GW liquid seal using
    an API Plan 52 buffer fluid system to allow for use in higher temperature services. The liquid BAW seals are commonly applied when
    process fluids have the following characteristics:
    - When the process temperature is too low or too high for standard elastomeric O-rings.
    - The process fluid contains particles that can block axial travel of the dynamic elastomeric O-rings used in spring pusher seal
    designs.
    - The process fluid tends to coke, crystallize, polymerize, or scale.
