Energized seals use springs or O-rings to maintain sealing force at low pressures. U-cups and T-seals often incorporate energizers. This ensures sealing during startup and low-pressure phases. Energizers compensate for wear and compression set. PTFE seals rely heavily on energizers due to low elasticity. They perform well in vacuum and high-pressure applications.
