View On-Demand Section 3 - Mechanical Seals: Installation - Connections - Commissioning

This is the third in a 4-part webinar series based on the Hydraulic Institute guidebook, Mechanical Seals for Pumps: Application Guidelines which was published in cooperation with the Fluid Sealing Association. It is strongly recommended that you purchase a copy of the book to support and enhance the educational content of the webinar.  A mechanical seal, although designed for various applications at times, requires equipment prepared so that the life cycle is maximized. In this module we also examine seal supports systems that further promote longer seal life.  Discussions include:

• General knowledge of mechanical seals used in rotary equipment.
• Basic preparation and standards as well as support system piping plans promoting longer seal life.
• What basic tolerances are recommended for seal installations?
• What benefit is the seal drawing to the overall installation
• Does the seal flush piping plan type really influence longer life?
• What is the difference between a seal support system for a secondary containment seal and a non-contacting seal

 The on-demand webinar will last approximately 2 hours, including Q&A. Audio broadcast will be via your computer speakers or teleconference bridge.
