Mechanical seals are vitally important parts to ensure the correct operation of the pump and the absence of leaks in the shaft area. 👉🏽 In Drotec We select the mechanical seal for each piece of equipment taking into account the service that the latter will be performing.
When selecting the mechanical seal, the materials of both tracks and the o-rings are defined in order to meet each need.
The mechanical seal has 2 tracks: One is attached to the shaft and the other is housed in the cover. The tracks are in friction with each other, therefore, it is of utmost importance to give adequate tension to the spring, guaranteeing adequate friction ☑️
During assembly, all the necessary controls are carried out to ensure the correct useful life in service of this part. Then, during the functional test of the pumping equipment, correct operation and the absence of leaks in the shaft area are verified.
