Will a
mechanical seal run on my equipment?
Here’s how to tell:
1. Most
seals are designed to fit ANSI style pumps. Check the
seal data sheet for dimensional info on each shaft
size.
2. Check
the speed of your shaft, pressure and other operating
conditions to be sure the seal you choose will handle
them.
3. Match
the product you are pumping with the proper seal
materials. It has to be constructed of materials that
can handle exposure to your product.
4. Check
the condition of your sleeve. It may be too worn for a
conventional cartridge seal and may require a split or
outside running design.
5. The
best way to be sure is to contact your Indcon rep and
have him make sure it’s the proper match.
