<p>In a rotodynamic pump, a seal chamber conditioning valve mechanism is positioned at least partially within the seal chamber of the pump to selectively and intermittently deliver fluid to or discharge contents from the seal chamber to modify the condition or content of the seal chamber and effectively protect the mechanical seal from failure due to, for example, built up solids or the presence of air. The conditioning valve mechanism may be actuated by a control device in communication with monitoring apparatus that determines the condition of the seal chamber, and particularly the mechanical seal face.</p> |
