Orifices
Mechanical seal recirculation through an orifice helps deter solids buildup and provides cooling to minimize flashing of
product in the seal chamber. Orifices are sized to provide adequate flush flow under specific operating conditions relative to
the seal size and fluid properties.

Throttle Bushings
Installed in the bottom of seal chambers, throttle bushings are used to control flow past mechanical seal faces and to lower or raise
the seal chamber pressure. Depending on the desired flow rates and equipment type, fixed or floating throttle bushings are available
for any radial clearance over the shaft. Unitized and split designs simplify installation and removal.
