The training course Technology and Application of Dry Gas Seals is a 2 and half-day training course offered in a classroom-based format in our Academy training rooms in Eurasburg, Germany.
The course conveys foundational sealing knowledge regarding the EagleBurgmann DGS related products, as well as services and other relevant details around those topics.
Participants will deepen their knowledge of the operating principles of gas-lubricated seals and gain insights into the specific components and constructional features that distinguish DGS seals - including ‘liftoff’ and ‘self-regulation’. We also provide an insight into the components and design features specifically employed in DGS seals. This includes a discussion of gas groove design – most importantly V- and U-grooves. The course includes an overview of SMS gas supply systems, allowing attendees to understand their structure and functions.
Through practical assembly exercises and guided visits to our production facilities and DGS test rigs, participants will experience the complex structure, precise tolerances, and critical differences of DGS seals compared to other seal types.
The materials used for DGS seals differ to a certain degree from those found in ‘wet’ seals. The course covers the basics of material selection for sliding materials and materials used for secondary sealing elements in DGS-seals. Additionally, we discuss critical operating conditions for DGS seals in common applications to support effective failure prevention and analysis.
The training concludes with a knowledge check.
Target group:
Specialists from operations and maintenance whose tasks include the installation, commissioning and maintenance of gas seals for pumps, agitators or compressors.
Previous Knowledge Required:
The course assumes a sound knowledge of general sealing technology. Participants should have previously attended introductory training to mechanical seals and their technical environment. Furthermore, the technical vocabulary used in the sealing industry is required to follow this training course in English.
