Abstract: A sealing system and method is disclosed. The sealing system includes a brush sealing element and an accommodating element with an accommodating chamber. The brush sealing element is disposed in the accommodating chamber and a bendable strap is disposed on the accommodating element. The method includes fastening the brush sealing element in the accommodating chamber of the accommodating element. The accommodating element is arranged in a groove of a housing segment and a position of the accommodating element is secured on the housing element by bending the strap of the accommodating element to engage with a side wall of the housing segment.

Abstract: A sealing arrangement for a non-hermetic seal between a stator and a rotor includes a brush gasket having a plurality of bristles wound around a core element and affixed to the core element with a clamping element. The brush gasket is disposed at least partially in a receiving space delimited by a support element and by a cover element. The support element, the cover element, and the brush gasket are secured using at least one fitting element in at least one recess, especially in an axial groove or bore, in the stator. In addition to being positioned by using the at least one fitting element, the components may also be affixed to the stator using an attachment element.
