7.2 For dual seals, LBI (Liquid Barrier Inlet) and LBO (Liquid

Barrier Outlet) are marked on the gland. ISC2 seals are unidirec-
tional and piping the correct inlet and outlet is important to proper
circulation. The liquid barrier inlet should draw from the bottom of
the support system while the liquid barrier outlet feeds the top of
the system.

Forced ventilation of the seal chamber must be ensured when the
circulation pipe is connected. Should there be gas or air pockets
in the sealing chamber, these can accumulate with the rotation
at the outer diameter of the seal gap at machine start-up. This
