LABYRINTH SEAL PUMPS
• ACD’s Labyrinth seal design is reliable and provides trouble free centrifugal pump operation eliminating the need for a traditional mechanical seal.
•Incorporatesagastypesealthateffectivelyseals around the shaft to protect against static and dynamic liquid leakage.
• The insulating closure plate along with the staggered stainless steel distance piece provides an interrupted cold-transference path to prevent “ice bridging.”
• Optimized tolerance and design result in highefficiencyandverylowsealinggasconsumption.
• Designed as an exchangeable cartridge foraddedflexibility.
• The non-contacting seal design makes the sealing life virtually unlimited.
• Speeds up to 8000 RPM.• Discharge pressures to 800 PSI (55 bar).
• Single gas (w/ mixture out)• Dual Gas• Reverse Bias
• Seal gas panel
• Process applications where continuous operation is required.
• Pumping applications where contami-nation must be kept to a minimum or when safety does not allow process gas to be vented to the atmosphere.
• High suction pressure applications that exceed mechanical seal capability
•ACDoffersthereversebiassealconfigurationforhighpurity(Argon)applications.
