ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for minimizing the pressure differential across shaft seals is characterized by a pump powered by the rotative force of a shaft to pump a fluid from a reservoir chamber into a chamber next-adjacent to each shaft seal. When the pressures in the chambers adjacent to the seals exceed a predetermined magnitude, a pressure relief arrangement is opened, thus venting the chambers and maintaining the differentials across the seals as minimal as possible.
