Compressor seals are industrial components designed to mimimise leaks, maintain system efficiency, and ensure the safe operation of equipment like centrifugal compressors. They achieve this by creating a reliable barrier between rotating and stationary components, reducing the risk of gas or fluid escaping while also optimising operational performance.
As the inventor of dry gas seal technology, John Crane has more installations in turbomachinery products than any other vendor. Our product portfolio of compressor seals—either dry gas seal seals or separation seals - covers any application and provides low-risk solutions alongside optimal performance and reliability. John Crane compressor seals are built to meet all international and customer standards, including API 692, and are trusted across industries such as Oil and Gas, Petrochemicals, and renewable energies. With over five decades of engineering expertise, our sealing technology will remain state-of-the-art, now and in the future.
John Crane also offers comprehensive training programmes for seals, designed to equip your team with the skills to maximise equipment reliability and performance. Our Mechanical Seal Reliability Programme helps you to optimise operations and reduce downtime, while John Crane Sense provides advanced condition monitoring to predict maintenance needs effectively. John Crane can also provide retrofit solutions that can modernise older systems for high performance and extend the life of your compressors. The payback period of a retrofit can be quickly evaluated using John Crane’s exclusive Life Cycle Cost Calculator.
Our numerous Centers of Excellence are close to multiple markets, and an unmatched service network will ensure support anytime, anywhere.
