Centrifugal compressors fitted with dry gas seals report impressive reliability statistics — and their secret to success is an uninterrupted supply of clean seal gas. The Flowserve Ampliflow T-Boost is an electrically driven seal gas booster that improves operational reliability by continuously delivering seal gas during periods of low differential pressure.

- Higher energy efficiency eliminates eddy current losses and reduces operation costs.
- Hermetically safe design assures zero leakage of gas through boundaries.
- High-pressure containment shell around the magnetic coupling withstands all pressure conditions, including MAWP.
- Minimum wearing parts reduces maintenance requirements compared to competitive designs and helps to achieve MTBR of 24,000 operating hours.
- Easy to set up and connect to existing dry gas seal support systems
- Retrofit/upgrade option with pneumatic-driven piston boosters to extend reliability and application range
- Innovative drive system with an intelligent motor controller provides the right flow and pressure over a variable compressor operating window.
- One or two impeller designs possible to meet application requirements
