ABSTRACT:
A system preventing fluid leakage from the inside of a compressor to the atmosphere. Static sealing of a non-rotating compressor shaft is provided by a multi-faced piston axially contacting a sleeve which is attached to and surrounds the shaft. The multi-faced piston is slidably actuated to the open, unsealed position during shaft rotation and to the closed, sealed position during non-rotation of the shaft by a series of conduits and valves which direct the fluid against an appropriate face of the piston.
