Abstract
A high suction pressure thrust load balance assembly configured for use with a single screw compressor includes comprises a sealing baffle that is keyed to, so as to be rotatable along with, a main rotor drive shaft of the single screw compressor. The sealing baffle is configured to create a force or load to counteract the axial force of the main rotor drive shaft created during rotation of the main rotor drive shaft using the pressurized oil used to lubricate the mechanical shaft seal of the compressor.
