BARRIER FLUID GT

BUFFER / BARRIER FLUID FOR MECHANICAL SEALS

BEYOND SYNTHETIC®

Barrier Fluid GT is recommended for use at elevated temperatures where nitrogen purge is not an option and when FDA purity is not required.

Barrier Fluid GT is a pure, non-reactive, synthetic fluid that provides superior lubrication and cooling for double and tandem mechanical seals.

Barrier Fluid GT provides very stable seal performance over an extremely wide temperature range, satisfying most seal service requirements. Barrier Fluid GT is extremely clean and has excellent low temperature fluidity and heat transfer properties.

Barrier Fluid GT is an undyed product.

PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGES

Environmentally Safe

Royal Purple Barrier Fluids are not listed on the EPA’s VHAP (volatile hazardous air pollutants) or VOC (volatile organic compounds) lists.

Minimal Disposal Problems

Royal Purple Barrier Fluids can be recycled, burned or disposed the same as mineral oil.

Very Low Moisture Content

Royal Purple Barrier fluids have a low moisture content to prevent seal problems or catalyst poisoning where applicable.

Highest Purity

Barrier Fluid GT contains no impurities such as sulfur, vanadium, amines, etc., that can be harmful or reactive to process fluids or poison the catalyst if it enters a process stream.

Extremely Clean

Barrier Fluid FDA has a typical ISO Cleanliness Grade 14/13/11, minimizing abrasive wear to seal faces and extending seal life.

Excellent Heat Transfer Properties

Royal Purple Barrier Fluids are 25 to 30 percent better than mineral oil to keep seals cool.

Excellent Low Temperature Fluidity

Royal Purple Barrier Fluids have excellent low temperature fluidity for cryogenic and cold weather service.

Uniform Molecular Size

The no light ends, plus excellent thermal stability of Royal Purple Barrier Fluids provide maximum protection against blistering of carbon seal faces caused by fluid volatility.

High Flash Point

Royal Purple Barrier Fluids have a high flash point for maximum safety.

Compatible with Most Fluids

Royal Purple Barrier Fluids can be mixed with mineral oils, PAOs and diester fluids but should not be mixed with glycol or silicone synthetics.

Wide Seal Compatibility Range

Royal Purple Barrier Fluids are compatible with Viton®, neoprene, Buna N (except high ACN), silicone, polyurethane ester, epichlorahydrin, polysulfide, ethlene / acrylic, polycrylate, flourosilicone, propylene oxide, chlorosulfonated polyethylene, chlorinated polyethylene, Kalrez®, Nordel®, fluroelastomer, nitrile and others. It is not for use with EPDM or EPR elastomers. Victon®, Kalrez® and Nordel® are registered trademarks of E.I. DuPont.
