Fast facts

Delivering value for you

Tegra Synthetic Barrier Fluid delivers value through:

Exceptional thermal and oxidation stability

Long fluid life in high temperature operation.

Low coefficient of friction

helps minimize the operating face temperature of the seal to prevent blistering of the carbon seal face.

Excellent wear protection

helps minimize surface wear that can lead to early seal failure.

Protection in extreme conditions

The barrier fluid’s inhibition against rust and corrosion, foaming and oil oxidation provides excellent protection in extreme conditions.

Applications

Tegra Synthetic Barrier Fluid is designed to meet the needs of a barrier fluid for dual mechanical seals per API Standard 682, Shaft Sealing Systems for Centrifugal and Rotary Pumps. Dual mechanical seals are used to control emissions of volatile air pollutants from industrial equipment. Leading seal manufacturers recommend the use of low viscosity synthetic fluids for extended seal life of API Standard 682 dual mechanical seals.

Tegra Synthetic Barrier Fluid is compatible with a wide range of:

• process liquids and does not contain impurities that could lead to catalyst poisoning should it enter the process stream.

• seal elastomers, including Buna N, nitrile, Neoprene, polyacrylate, fluoro-silicone, Hypalon, and fluorocarbon.

Tegra Synthetic Barrier Fluid 17 cSt has a low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) level, so that the barrier fluid itself will not be the source of volatile air pollutants in higher temperature applications.

Tegra Synthetic Barrier Fluid 5 cSt is suitable for use in low temperature applications.

Use of Tegra Synthetic Barrier Fluid will help provide every stable seal performance over a wide temperature range.

Tegra Synthetic Barrier Fluid helps maximize the life of the dual mechanical seal by minimizing the operating face temperature and surface wear
