What should I do if the pump seal keeps leaking?
Thread Content
What should be done if there is constant leakage at the mechanical seal of the pump used to feed material into the filter press plates? The material contains toluene; if it is too tight, the pump is prone to generating heat through friction, which poses a risk, while if it is too loose, leakage will occur. The pressure inside the pump is approximately 0.5–0.06 Mpa. Please find a solution
Toluene is flammable, highly volatile, and toxic. Considering that the pump outlet for plate and frame filter presses needs to reach a pressure of 6 kilograms, are you using a mechanical seal?
If it’s convenient for you, you can add me on QQ at 1480667756 or on WeChat at 13865383412; I’ll explain everything to you in detail
Or should I add you? What’s your QQ number?
A double-ended mechanical seal can be used, which ensures no leakage and is safe and environmentally friendly; the friction pairs of the mechanical seal can be cooled by an isolation fluid!
The filter press is a commonly used device for solid-liquid separation; the medium always contains solid particles (powders). It is recommended to use a double-end mechanical seal along with a PLAN54 flushing scheme
Same opinion as the person above~~~ Use double-end face + PLAN54~~~~ If there isn’t enough space, PLAN32 can also be considered~~
The selection of the mechanical seal structure is not suitable for the operating conditions
