The key takeaways are that the Safeunit system monitors and controls seal water flow and pressure to predict seal failures, reduce water consumption, and maximize the life of mechanical seals.

The Safeunit system can help detect seal water leakage, which can result in extra heating, evaporation costs or dilution problems. It can also detect any problems with the seals or seal water system itself.

Installing a Safeunit system can dramatically reduce water consumption by up to 80%, lower waste water loads, and save hundreds of thousands of dollars annually on water costs for facilities with many pumps. It also ensures trouble-free operation and maximizes the profitability of investments.

Seal Water Control and Monitoring System

Safeunit

Safematic Safeunit
Complete monitoring and control solution
for seals and seal water systems
Installing the Safeunit seal water system
will ensure trouble free operation of process
machinery in all conditions and achieve the
maximum life cycle profit of your investment.

Adjusting the seal water flow and pressure


with Safeunit will create the best possible
operating environment for seals and
maximise the runnability of the process.

Save Seal Water


2 drops/second = 14 m3 / year
Safeunit seal water system dramatically reduces
water consumption by up to 80%. This means a
considerable drop in waste water load.

Normal operation

2.5 l/min

2.5 l/min

For example, with the water price of US $0.50/m3,


the annual savings in a mill with 300 pumps is US
$300,000 (flow reduction 4 l/min/pump).

Flow increases and


pressure decreases

2 l/min

6 l/min

4 l/min

Changes in the pre-set system values for


flow and pressure will indicate any possible
problems in seals and system well in
advance. For automatic control, alarm
sensors can be used.

Safeunit system also detects seal water


leakage in the process resulting in extra
heating and evaporation costs or expensive
quality problems such as dilution.
