According to existing standards for various operational conditions in the oil, gas, refining, and petrochemical industries, dry gas seal (DGS) systems are among the most critical and sensitive components of centrifugal compressors in operational units. Given the key role of centrifugal compressors in most operational units, the direct impact of their operational reliability on the overall reliability of these units is undeniable. One of the most important factors influencing the proper operation of compressors is the performance of dry gas seal (DGS) systems. The primary cause of failure in these systems is the ingress of contaminants into the stuffing box, including moisture, suspended particles, and various impurities. This article aims to explain the importance of preventing such occurrences.
