Single Cartridge Seals

 Single cartridge mechanical seal is assembled by the rotary ring, stationary ring, spring, secondary seal( o rings, PTFE), gland and other mechanical seal parts together as a collection, known as the cartridge seal, sometimes also called the cartridge type mechanical seal.

 

Features of Single Cartridge Seals

faster and easier replacement of pump shaft seals

less downtime

reliable start-up after a sealing change

Advantage of Single Cartridge Seals

ready-to-install: components include rotating components, bushings and glands

gage bolts applied for the most gland box

easy to replace the packing or bearing

easy to install in uneasy install place

Used for longer time than non-cartridge mechanical seal

 

Overview of Cartridge Type Mechanical Seal

A single cartridge type seal consists of two very flat surfaces that are pressed together by a spring and slide against each other. The single mechanical seal is a mechanical seal composed of 1 set of seal face. the sealing structure is simple, easy to manufacture and install features. Generally, non cartridge mechanical seal is used for the medium with good lubricity and allows a slight leakage. Single cartridge seals are one of the most commonly used centrifugal pump seal types. Single cartridge pump seals do not work well when the media is the toxic, flammable, explosive and strict requirement of leakage.

 

Mechanical seals tend to leak a vapor from the high-pressure side to the low-pressure side. This fluid lubricates the seal faces and absorbs the heat generated from the associated friction, which crosses the seal faces as a liquid and vaporizes into the atmosphere. So, it's common practice to use a single cartridge mechanical seal if the pumped product poses little to no risk to the environment.

 

Material of Single Cartridge Mechanical Seal

When a single cartridge seals used in the oil-filled motor, it is not only necessary to prevent the machine outside the impurities, sand and water to enter, but also to prevent the leakage of oil within the machine, so sealing requirements is higher, sealing ring material requirements need to be good, its sealing face material is made of tungsten carbide or silicon carbide. If it is installed on the shaft of the water-filled motor shaft, it only requires sand control. The sealing ring can be made of alumina ceramic, silicon nitride or other harder materials, so the cost is relatively low.

 

Recommended Applications of Single Cartridge Seals

General industrial applications including chemical processing, food and beverage, petrochemical processing, pharmaceutical, wastewater and power generation.

Centrifugal pump, Chemical pump, Slurry pump, Mixer, Agitator, Circulation pump, Submersible electric pump, Reactor, Oil pump etc.

 

Difference Between Aartridge and Non Cartridge Mechanical Seal

Cartridge mechanical seal has a sleeve and gland; non-cartridge seals only have the rotary and stationary ring.The installation error rate of the Common non-cartridge mechanical sea is higher than the cartridge mechanical seal. Therefore, use cartridge shaft seal can greatly reduce the occurrence of mechanical seal failure.Since the cartridge mechanical seal does not require any adjustment of the high quality mechanical seal by the installer (such as spring, sealing surface, etc.), only the bolts need to be tightened, which greatly improves the reliability of the mechanical seal installation.

Mechanical Seal Material

  According to statistics, about 80% to 95% of the leakage of mechanical seals is caused by sealing faces and friction pairs. Flygt pump seals has this problem. In addition to keeping the sealing surface parallel, it is mainly the material problem of the friction pairs. The design of most mechanical seals uses stiffer materials to make the revolving surface, so that it can rotate friction on the soft stationary surface. The rotating surface is now made of stainless steel or harder material, such as tungsten carbide or silicon carbide. Graphite or Teflon is used for stationary surfaces.   Material selection of mechanical seal friction pairs is a complex problem. In general, it should be selected according to the properties of the working medium, pressure, temperature and rotation speed, and the ability to withstand short time friction when the pair is started or the liquid film is destroyed. Taking into account the above factors, the material of the friction pair should have th...

Seal Spare Parts Spring

Image
  Introduction of Seal Spare Parts Spring For a spring mechanical seal , the initial closing force ensures that the seal will function properly from startup. In end- or rotating-face mechanical seal designs, the initial closing force is provided by a spring component, which can be a single coil spring, multiple coil springs, a deflected bellows unit (elastomer or metal), or formed or flat springs. Initial biasing forces also can be created by magnets, compressed elastomers or any other means of applying a closing force between sealing elements.   For single spring seal , the seal body is sprung by either a metal or rubber bellows, a series of small springs, or by a single coil spring. These seals must be fitted with the correct coil spring for the rotation of the shaft. The major cause of failure of this type of seal is a broken drive spring. This is due to the use of 316 SS stainless steel as the coil material. The spring has to maintain the drive of the seal head and to flex...
