Features
- Single seal
- Cartridge
- Balanced
- Independent of direction of rotation
- Single seals without connections (-SNO), with flush (-SN) and with quench combined with lip seal (-QN) or throttle ring (-TN)
- Additional variants available for ANSI pumps (e.g. -ABPN) and eccentric screw pumps (-Vario)
Advantages
- Ideal seal for standardizations
- Universal applicable for packings conversions, retrofits or original equipment
- No dimensional modification of the seal chamber (centrifugal pumps) necessary, small radial installation height
- No damage of the shaft by dynamically loaded O-Ring
- Extended service life
- Straightforward and easy installation due to pre-assembled unit
- Individual adaptation to pump design possible
- Customer specific versions available
