- The design of the ES seal is simple but robust, enabling fast and easy installation and maintenance.
- Integrated shaft seal protects the shaft from the process liquids.
- Pressure variations or dropouts of the pumped liquid will not open the slide faces.
- Can be used without flushing, with recirculation flushing or with external flushing.
Element seals
Optimal seal solution for AHLSTAR pumps
ES balanced single mechanical element seal is designed for the AHLSTAR A, APP, NPP and WPP pumps as an integral part without any additional components. This optimizes the space between the seal and the seal chamber, and ensures reliable operation.
An optimal solution for water and light process applications:
- clean and slightly contaminated liquids
- viscous liquids
- fibrous slurries up to 3% consistency
- temperature up to 140°C / 284°F depending on the seal flushing arrangement and seal chamber pressure
