Mechanical Seals

Mechanical seals are devices used to prevent fluid leakage in rotating equipment, such as pumps and compressors. Their primary function is to seal the gap between the rotating shaft and the stationary pump or compressor casing, preventing the escape of liquids or gases from the system. They are critical components in various industrial applications, ensuring that the internal fluids stay where they belong and don’t leak into the surrounding environment.

Split Seals:
These seals are designed for applications where equipment is unable to be disassembled due to time constraints. They offer unique advantages such as easy installation, adaptability, and a high level of leakage control.

Cartridge Seals:
These seals are engineered to prevent fluid leakage from rotating equipment like pumps and mixers. They are primarily used in pipelines, offshore platforms, refineries, and the petrochemical industry.

Cassette Seals:
These seals are used in harsh environments under extreme operating conditions to shield and exclude contaminants such as wash down spray on gear reducers used in food processing, and environmental debris common in mining, agriculture, and power generation equipment.

Gas Seals:
Dry gas seals are utilized when seal pressure and vapor leakage cannot be tolerated. They are widely used on compressors for pipelines, offshore applications, oil refineries, petrochemicals, and gas processing plants.

Bellows Seals:
These seals are used in various industrial applications due to their flexibility and adaptability. They are used in chemical processing, food and beverage, HVAC systems, petrochemical industry, pharmaceuticals, power plants.

Slurry Seals:
Slurry seals are used to fill existing pavement surface defects as either a preparatory treatment for other maintenance treatments or as a wearing course.

Mixer / Agitator Seals:
These seals are engineered to reliably operate in a wide range of temperature and applications. They are used in top entry mixer vessels in pharmaceuticals & chemical industries.

Component Seals:
Component seals are an assembly of several individual parts that provide a seal between the rotating part of a pump or other machinery and the stationary part. These seals are essential in preventing fluid leakage along with the shaft that extends through the machine’s casing.

Specialty Seals:
Specialty seals are used in a variety of applications, including capacitors, filters, transformers, microwave tubes, nuclear reactors, space probe devices, and others.

In summary, mechanical seals play a crucial role in various industries by preventing fluid leakage, maintaining the efficiency and reliability of machinery, and minimizing the risk of contamination or environmental hazards.
