Watch the video below that showcases our APAC turbomachinery capabilities, and how we are committed to supporting our turbomachinery customers as needs and challenges evolve.
Turbomachinery Testing
Our dry gas seal test rigs allow for full dynamic testing under client-specific operating conditions in a wide range of environments. Customers can witness real-time testing data remotely, thereby speeding delivery and reducing average lead times for returning repaired components. Each test adds new information to our database, helping us better understand and address turbo engineering issues that occur in the field.
Upgrades, Refurbishments & Retrofits
In addition to our critical equipment services, we can also identify opportunities for application improvement—even in competitor turbomachinery equipment. Component upgrades, refurbishments and retrofits can enhance turbomachinery reliability and efficiency, and our solutions handle every aspect from initial review to final connections and tie-ins.
John Crane’s Gas Seal Management Program (GSMP) provides storage of seals in a designated 24-hour air-conditioned room to ensure seals are kept at an optimum condition. To ensure this, the seals have consumables replaced and seal faces treated at the fourth-year mark.
