Mechanical sealing for industrial applications
Continuous operations are not uncommon in industrial processes. Every moment counts, so your equipment, including mechanical seals, needs to work without disruption. Our mechanical seals are exclusively engineered for all rotary equipment in chemical, power or pulp and paper plants.
We have profound application knowledge of industrial processes and are trusted by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to increase the value of their pumps, agitators or compressors. Through collaboration and expertise, our mechanical seals are engineered to address and remedy your pressing needs.
Meeting the diverse demands of chemical processes
When it comes to handling complex chemical processes, the mechanical seal is key to operating safely and efficiently. Rotating equipment, like pumps, agitators or compressors, requires robust sealing to ensure gasses and liquids are controlled and operations run smoothly.
Whether processing basic, fine or inorganic chemicals, our mechanical seals are proven to reduce downtime and support the highest output volumes. They can withstand aggressive, hazardous, corrosive media, even under volatile temperature and pressure conditions. In petrochemical plants, we deliver optimized compressor seals for the toughest environments, so your equipment will always keep up with demand.
Robust mechanical sealing for power generation
Power plants are under increasing pressure to meet growing energy demands in line with environmental and regulatory standards. High performance is key to this, and with robust mechanical seals, equipment reliability has become a problem of the past.
Roplan has a proven track record working with renewable energies and fossil fuel plants fitted with a flue gas desulfurization (FGD) plant. We’ve engineered heavy-duty mechanical seals to operate against abrasive lime slurries in FGD plants, as well as the high temperatures and pressures of gas and oil-fired plants. With our support, we’ve helped OEMs in power generation increase uptime, reduce emissions and improve efficiency.
Maximizing performance in pulp and paper plants
Over the decades, we have engineered reliable mechanical seals to meet the diverse needs of chemical and thermo-mechanical pulp (TMP) production. TMP processing yields up to 97% fibrous material from original wood chips, so the efficiency of energy-demanding processes, like refiners, must remain operational. In other plants, wood chips are chemically pulped to remove lignin and generate stronger pulp fibers.
Roplan’s mechanical seals are designed to withstand high temperatures and pressures in every process while maximizing operational efficiency. Sealed in pumps, agitators, refiners, conveyors and sorters – our mechanical seals maximize plant availability and optimize energy and water consumption demands.
A partner to rely on - time and time again
Your mechanical seal should be as reliable as the supplier providing it. At Roplan, we are your full-service partner, offering design expertise and technical support to ensure your mechanical seals last – and last.
Our client-first approach goes beyond servicing. You also have total control of the aftermarket, so your business can grow and your equipment remains competitive. For 45 years, we’ve prioritized our partners’ success, and now, we want to add value to yours.
