SMART Seals<sup>®</sup>

Customized advanced seals to increase turbine efficiency and availability, lower emissions and maximize your investment

Your advantage in today’s challenging environment

A cost-effective way to reduce steam leakage, upgrade performance and save on fuel costs without major capital expenditure or modifications to the unit.

Enjoy savings to your bottom line

Steam path audits demonstrate that around 70% of losses in the steam path is due to operating with excessive seal clearances.

For example, on a 300 MW impulse steam turbine, installation of SMART Seals can present $490K in fuel savings and $1.2M annual increase in generation, while reducing CO2 by 25,000 tons per year*.
