WHY USE MECHANICAL SEALS? INSTEAD OF PACKING
3
  • Two sealing technologies are prevalent pump
    packing and mechanical seals. Engineers choose
    one of them as per the needs and expectations in
    a particular application.
  • Which one is more effective and efficient for
    your agitator or pump application?
  • In light of the improvements happened in the
    mechanical sealing technology in recent years,
    seals are surely better than packing.

  • The invention of cartridge and split mechanical
    seals reduced the complication of installation.
  • Thus, the time has come that operations should
    come out of their preconceived notions and sheer
    habits and adapt mechanical seals.  It will
    reduce operational overheads and provide a better
    return, for sure.
  • Based on applications, budgets, and operational
    priorities, mechanical seals are a better choice.

SITUATIONS WHERE A MECHANICAL SEAL IS THE RIGHT
CHOICE
  • At times, the mechanical seal is the only right
    sealing option without any comparison.
  • Take an example where the pumped fluid has some
    environmental or health or safety hazard. In such
    a case, no packing can assure 100 leak-free
    performance.
  • A double mechanical seal will make it 100
    leak-proof and safe. It will not allow even the
    leakage of invisible vapors as well.
  • Here is a list of situations one must replace
    packing with high-quality mechanical seals.

6
  • Reliability of the process When reliability is
    the primary aspect, a mechanical seal is always
    the best choice. Even if the investment is high,
    it is worth in the long term. By choosing the
    right seal vendor, you can pick the most
    appropriate seal. Not only that, you get
    installation and maintenance support also.
  • Leakage loss is to be minimum A standard packing
    has some leakage always. It could be a lot if the
    application has a very costly fluid. Remember, a
    small leakage could cause tremendous loss if it
    happens for many days, weeks, or months. Hence,
    the best thing is to switch to mechanical seals
    that are 100 safe and keep the leaking loss to
    the minimum level.
  • When the maintenance is costly Suppose you get
    the standard packing system installation at a low
    cost, but the maintenance cost is high, then it
    is not a value proposition. You should consider a
    mechanical seal, which requires almost zero
    maintenance cost.

  • There are situations where the bearing fails
    earlier than expected. You have to replace
    packing in such a situation even if it is new. In
    a mechanical seal, you will never have this
    condition.
  • Thus, a mechanical seal is a far better option
    than conventional packing.
  • Leak-Pack is ISO 90012008 certified company and
    one of the best mechanical seals suppliers,
    manufacturers  and exporters in India, providing
    solutions to all types of leakages by
    manufacturing Mechanical Seals and Sealing
    Components as per customers drawings, samples or
    requirements. To know more about Mechanical Seal
