Structural Features: single end, multi springs, balanced, independent rotary direction, still structure mechanical seal. This seal has very small operating length so that it is suitable for replacing outer-framework oil seals for sealing the oil side of the high speed pump gearboxes. All compensation components are pre-assembled as a whole body and the springs will not be able to be fell out. The whole seal is very compact and easy to install. It has very great stability and works well with high speed conditions. Loads on the seal faces are well balanced.

Scopes of Application: widely used in different types of oil, water, acid and alkali operational conditions. This seal component was designed for high speed pumps, blowers, decelerators, gearboxes, and rotating joints.

Many early mechanical seal designs placed the spring inside the process fluid. Most products (process fluids) that are sealed are not very clean. When the spring mechanism of the mechanical seal is immersed in this unclean fluid, dirt collects between the springs. This situation eventually impacts the spring’s ability to respond to movements and vibrations, and the ability to keep the seal faces closed. Over time, clogging of the springs will cause premature seal failure.

The ideal design offers springs on the atmospheric side of the mechanical seals. The springs will be protected from the process fluid and their ability to work will not be impeded.

The pressure from both the seal springs (Ps) and the hydraulic pressure of the liquid in the pump (Pp) provide a compression force that keeps the seal faces closed. Balanced seals reduce the seal ring area (Ah) on which the hydraulic pressure of the liquid in the pump (Pp) acts.

By reducing the area, the net closing force is reduced. This allows for better lubrication that results in lower heat generation, face wear, and power consumption. Balanced seals typically have higher pressure ratings than unbalanced seals.

Mechanical seals can be designed with inserted seal faces or with monolithic seal faces. In both cases, the sacrificial seal face is often made from carbon/graphite. This material offers good running properties but is relatively weaker from a mechanical standpoint than other options. Inserted face designs use a metal rotary holder to transmit the shaft torque to the seal face.

The disadvantage of this inserted face design is that the face and holder material have different coefficients of thermal expansion. This changes the net interference force between both parts when they are exposed to heat from the process fluid or face friction. The seal face deforms, which results in leakage and accelerated wear.

More modern seals are equipped with monolithic seal faces that are made out of only the seal face material itself. The torque transmission is applied directly to the seal face. This is possible if the geometry of the seal face is designed in a particular shape to give it the strength to handle the torque through its geometric design. These monolithic seal face designs have been made possible through the use of Finite Element Analysis (computer modeling).

Monolithic seal faces provide a more stable fluid film between the faces, and they do not deform in operation compared to inserted faces (or to a much lesser degree). Therefore, they are more commonly used nowadays when reliability and low emissions are vital.

All mechanical seal designs have at least one secondary seal that interacts with the dynamic movement of theflexible mounted face. This secondary seal moves with the springs to keep the seal faces closed and is defined as thedynamic secondary seal. During operation of a rotary design, springs will keep the seal faces closed. They adjust with each rotation for any misalignment from installation and parts tolerances. As the springs compensate, the dynamic secondary seal moves back and forth, twice per revolution. This rapid movement prevents the protective chrome oxide layer (the layer that protects the metal) from forming. Erosion of this unprotected area under the dynamic secondary seal will cause a groove to develop. Eventually this groove becomes so deep that O-Ring compression is lost and the seal leaks. In most cases, fretted shafts must be replaced to achieve an effective seal.

With rotary mechanical seals, it is important that the stuffing box face is perpendicular to the shaft for the faces to stay closed. There will always be some resulting misalignment from installation and parts tolerances. The springs must adjust with each rotation to keep the seal faces closed. This adjustment becomes more difficult at higher speeds.

In contrast, a stationary seal is a mechanical seal designed in such a way that the springs do not rotate with the pump shaft; they remain stationary. Because the springs do not rotate, they are unaffected by rotational speed. The springs do not need to correct or adjust with each rotation; they adjust for misalignment only once when installed.

Rotary seals are simple in design which makes them inexpensive. They are suitable for lower speeds only. Stationary seals are more complicated to design but are suitable for all speed ranges. Because of design complexity, stationary seals are more commonly configured as cartridge seals rather than component seals.

Ashish Seals is one the of the major Reverse Balanced Mechanical Seal manufacturers, suppliers and exporters in Mumbai India. We are ISO 9001-2015 certified reliable manufacturer of Reverse Balanced Mechanical Seals that is designed to handle abrasive or corrosive media. As the metal components of this kind of seal do not come in contact with the media to be sealed, it is widely in demand. The offered mechanical seal is compact in design; hence neither axial nor radial extra space is essential for its installation. Such seals are used to handle hydrocarbons, corrosive chemicals, general & light chemicals.

Reverse Balanced Mechanical Seal is externally mounted and are multi coil spring seals. Liquid pressure is used for closing the seal faces. Thus, it is very useful in vacuum and high pressure applications. As it eliminates the shaft step or sleeves for balancing, this makes it a unique seal. It can be exceptionally useful light corrosive and contaminated liquid. The metal does not come in contact with the media. Such seals eliminate the elastomer’s movement. Hence it reduces fretting effect on shaft efficiency.

The balance of the mechanical seal ring is fully exposed to the pressure range of the packing box. This situation will make high pressure between the sealing surface, which will make the working temperature increase, speed up the rate of wear. Under high temperature working conditions or liquid having greater corrosion and friction, it will greatly reduce the service life of mechanical seals.

Balancing mechanical seal ring can reduce the sealing pressure and extend the service life of the seal. The main shaft and shaft sleeve with steps are generally adopted to reduce the effective section of the rotary surface, so as to achieve the above purpose. However, do not adjust the net sealing pressure to close to zero level, because this may cause the the unstable working condition between the sealing surface, and may blow the seal due to sudden changes.

The answer to these sealing problems may be an unbalanced seal, which may be better for some services. For example, in some applications, there may be more emphasis on the safety of liquid leakage than on the life of the seal. In this case, the selection of the seal may also be understood as the choice of a higher seal pressure. Similarly, in the case of a cooler liquid seal, the increase in operating temperature may be negligible.

The global mechanical seals market size stood at USD 3.20 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 4.77 billion by 2026, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period.

The key utility of a mechanical seal is to prevent leakage of fluids or gases through the clearance between the shaft and the container. Mechanical seals consist of a set of 2 faces separated by carbon rings. The first face is in contact with the rotating equipment whereas the second face is stationary. Moreover, the main part of the seal is the seal ring (first face) on which the mechanical force is acting, generated by springs, bellows, or fluids in the equipment. In recent years, mechanical seals are playing an important role in varied industrial applications, enabling efficient operations. Mechanical seals are made up of several flexible materials such as Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), Polyurethane (AU, EU), industrial rubber, Fluorosilicone (FVMQ), and many more.
