Velocity Seal Purge Reducers

About Velocity SEALS

Compatible with Most Systems and Easy to Install

Our Velocity Seal is a purge reducer, designed to cut down on the amount of purge gas your flare system uses to avoid dangerous explosions. Our design comes in both weld-in and flanged configurations, is compatible with most existing flare systems, and can even be installed by any local welding services provider.

Why Purge Reducers Are Vital

Reduce purge gas requirements by up to 92%

When flare stacks have little or no process flow, there’s an increased risk of air entering the flare tip and working its way down the stack into the flare header. This leaves you at risk for explosions ignited by the flare stack ignition system.

These explosions have the potential to cause catastrophic damage to your equipment and can even result in injury and loss of life. To prevent air ingress, you need to use purge gas. Unfortunately, when you have a low process flow, this can require a massive quantity of purge gas, which becomes very expensive.

The solution is a Velocity Seal.

Velocity Seal Purge Reducers cut back on the amount of purge gas required to safely operate a flare by as much as 92%.
