The Flex-A-Flo monitors the temperature of the seal chamber while utilizing a thermally actuated valve that automatically removes hot barrier fluid liquid and keeps the seal running in its optimal environment.

Low Cost, Easy to Install, Water SavingsMaximize Water Conservation by Regulating Flow:The Flex-A-Flo’s thermally actuated valve is calibrated to read the temperature of the barrier fluid and only open when the fluid exceeds the preset temperature. If the barrier fluid exceeds the preset temperature, it automatically opens the valve which releases the hot fluid and cools down the seal. The Flex-A-Flo standardizes on a preset temperature of 150 degrees F, but can be customized for any particular temperature required.

Easy to Install: The Flex-A-Flo is designed to fit all Flex-A-Seal dual mechanical seals and can easily be applied to all competitors’ seals as well. To install, simply twist the Flex-A-Flo into the drain connection of the gland, connect the flush water supply tube and you’re ready to go!

Zero Maintenance, Works Automatically:The Flex-A-Flo thermally actuated valve automatically releases and reads the temperature of the fluid with no monitoring necessary. No additional maintenance or monitoring necessary after installation.
