Mechanical Seal barrier fluid is the media used for the flushing of mechanical seal faces. The heat generated (because of physical contact and friction) between a pair of mechanical seal (Normally one face rotary whereas the the is stationary) faces is being carried away by the barrier fluid which is being recirculated after proper cooling.
The barrier fluid also create a barrier between the process fluid and flushing fluid. It is being kept at a higher pressure than process fluid in order to always ensure that only barrier fluid film remain across the seal faces all the time.
The barrier fluid is being kept in a container with connected piping from mechanical seal inlet and outlet. There is normally a cooling device (Air cooler or conventional water cooler) in between for cooling the seal outlet barrier fluid.
Liquids being used as a barrier fluid in cases of liquid sealing. Where as gases being used a barrier in case of gas sealing.
The barrier fluids are being recommended considering the various check points being given as a guide line in API 682 3rd edition. ( See the details in the subject API plan 53 & 74 barrier fluid selection).
Thanks.

What is the working principle of mechanical seal?
Mechanical seals feature:*Invisible leakage*Less friction/power loss*No to little wear on the shafts or sleeves*Flexibility - to accommodate shaft deflections and "End Play"*No period maintenance*Long LifeIn practical use, the basic rotating face mechanical seal principle is adaptable to serve a tremendous number of sealing needs: standard mechanical seals can suit most requirements-including temperatures to 500 degrees F and shaft speeds to 3600 RPM through the choice of secondary seal and the combination of seal and seat face materials which are offered. Seals can be ordered in balanced configurations to seal pressures above 200 psi, or used in a multiple for extremely high pressures or especially severe fluid services....Special mechanical seals can be furnished to meet the most demanding of industrial applications considering pressure, temperature, speed or fluid.
What is the purpose of seam tape for vapor barrier and how does it enhance the effectiveness of the barrier?
Seam tape for vapor barrier is used to seal the seams and joints of the barrier, preventing air and moisture from seeping through. This enhances the effectiveness of the barrier by creating a continuous, airtight seal that helps to maintain the integrity of the vapor barrier and prevent any leaks or gaps that could compromise its performance.
How do you do mechanical seal setting compression?
With a spanner. N=mc2
What is a Diaphragm Seal Pressure Gauge?
A diaphragm seal pressure gauge consists of a diaphragm seal placed between the process fluid and the pressure sensor (gauge). The diaphragm transmits pressure from the process fluid to the gauge, preventing the sensor from direct contact with the fluid.
What is hydraulic motor?
A hydraulic motor is actuated by the hydraulic fluid which is pumped into it, and will use this fluid energy to turn a shaft or mechanical gearset, thus converting fluid energy into mechanical energy.
What do you mean by dynamic seal of pump?
dynamic seal of pump means seal which prevents the leakage of fluid from pump shaft
How do you know if your transmission is gone or if it is the seal in your 1995 Isuzu Rodeo?
a bad seal will result in fluid loss, which will cause tranny issues. If its from fluid loss, its a seal, if The fluid looks reddish and the filter is within mileage, the tranny is probably going out. JayWalt coooldude@ilovejesus.net
