For detecting leakage past a high pressure seal which seals a space in which a high pressure exists, there is arranged outside the high pressure seal a collection space for pressure medium which leaks into the space and a device is provided connected with the space to detect changes in the pressure or temperature therein and to produce a signal or to stop the press. The detecting device may be an insulated cable which seals the space on the side remote from the high pressure seal and which may be broken by pressure within the space, thereby interrupting an electrical circuit.

In a hydrostatic extrusion press having a high pressure cylinder and a seal holder engaging one end of the high pressure cylinder and a seal engaging the inner surface of the high pressure cylinder and the seal holder, means spaced away from and outside the seal forming an annular collecting space between adjacent surfaces of the seal holder and the high pressure cylinder, and a detector for sensing a temperature or pressure increase caused by pressure medium leaking between the engaging surfaces of the high pressure cylinder and the seal holder into such space, which detector includes means to release a signal and/or to stop the press in response to a predetermined temperature or pressure in the collecting space.
