SealVolution – Long-Lasting Packing

Extend lifetime and boost your uptime

Optimize compressor uptime Packing for high-end useand reliability

SealVolution combines HOERBIGER’s proven Surround Cooled Packing Case (SCC) with patented Balanced Tangent Design (BTD) rings, creating a durable, efficient, and emission-safe packing solution for reciprocating compressors.

This integration ensures:

Reduced maintenance costs and downtime resulting in higher operating efficiency
Efficient cooling, reduced friction and optimized contact design extends equipment lifetime
Safe operation and emission control with optional ECPi connection

Balanced Tangent Design (BTD) rings

The pressure-balanced tangent ring is designed to minimize the contact pressure and thereby reduce wear and increase lifetime.

Increased radial thickness option

Increase wear volume of the rings adapted to stuffing box space for extended ring life.

Surround Cooled Packing Case (SCC)

Ensures efficient cooling and minimizes heat generation.

Emission Control Panel (ECPi) connection

Monitors health status of each packing and enables preventative maintenance. Ensures emission compliance.

API 618 compliance

Meeting global industry standards for reliability and safety.

Packing for high-end use

SealVolution is designed for tougher applications that require increased uptime and extended lifetime. The heart of this packing is the Balanced Tangent Design Ring (BTD), which provides superior durability. SealVolution benefits from BTD’s single ring design, allowing a more compact compressor packing configuration. This advancement is critical in order to maximize equipment life while maintaining greater emissions-lowering capabilities. It offers compatibility with an optional Emissions Control Panel (ECP), ensuring both safety and emissions compliance. For greater reliability, SealVolution is customized to improve dynamic sealing of piston rods, with adjustable options for lubrication, cooling, venting and purging based on your requirements.
