FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I use Component or Cartridge Seals?

In many cases, Cartridge Seals may contain the exact same major items that are sold separately as Component Seals. These pieces include the Rotary Seal and Stationary Face as well as other minor parts like O-rings or Gaskets all required at assembly. The advantage of using a Cartridge Seal is that the time required for installation, and even more importantly, the possibility of error during installation is dramatically reduced. When installing a Cartridge Seal, the necessity of having to measure internal components positioning on the shaft to achieve proper face loading is eliminated. Cartridge Seals come pre-assembled from the factory with all internal components assembled with proper face loading and all pieces in place, exactly where they should be. Cartridge Seals eliminate the need to handle delicate, polished parts such as Seal Faces that can be compromised by the presence of dirt, smudges and oils that can result from handling during assembly. So, for the easiest and most reliable Seal installation, Cartridge Seals go a long way towards helping you achieve trouble free startup and extended service life from your equipment.

Why would I want to consider a Split Seal?

Split seals offer a major advantage over conventional seals with large shafted equipment where the disassembly required for a typical Seal installation is cost prohibitive. Along with demonstrated energy savings, Split Seals are also virtually leak free when compared to traditional methods of sealing large shafted equipment like Vertical Turbine Pumps with Mechanical Packing. The result is increased efficiency along with dramatic improvements in housekeeping and safety protocols benefitting from the elimination of routine leakage inherent with Packing.

When should I choose a Diamond Face Mechanical Seal?

Diamond face mechanical seals offer a low coefficient of friction and will generate less heat allowing the seal to run cooler, even in times of dry run. Diamond seal face coating is a proven solution for abrasive fluids, fluids with low lubricity, and intermittent dry running.
