General Information |
|
Model Number |
Lowara - 01 |
Application |
Suitable for various industrial pumps, such as centrifugal pumps, sewage pumps, and chemical pumps. |
Operating Principle |
Based on the principle of mechanical face sealing, which provides a reliable seal between the rotating shaft and the stationary housing to prevent leakage of fluids. |
Design Features |
|
Seal Type |
Single - spring balanced seal design. This design ensures uniform pressure distribution on the sealing faces, reducing wear and extending the service life of the seal. |
Construction Material |
The seal faces are made of high - quality ceramic and carbon graphite. Ceramic offers excellent hardness and wear resistance, while carbon graphite provides good self - lubrication properties. The metal components are made of stainless steel, which has high corrosion resistance and strength. |
Spring Material |
The spring is made of a special alloy steel with high elasticity and corrosion resistance. It can maintain a stable pre - load force under different operating conditions. |
Operating Conditions |
|
Temperature Range |
-20°C to 180°C. This wide temperature range allows the seal to be used in different environments, from cold storage applications to high - temperature industrial processes. |
Pressure Range |
Up to 10 bar. The seal can withstand relatively high pressures, ensuring reliable sealing performance in high - pressure systems. |
Speed Range |
Suitable for shaft speeds up to 3000 RPM. It can adapt to different rotational speeds of the pump shaft. |
Fluid Compatibility |
|
Compatible Fluids |
Water, oils, solvents, and many common chemical solutions. However, it is recommended to conduct a compatibility test when using with special or aggressive chemicals. |
Incompatible Fluids |
Strong oxidizing agents and some highly corrosive acids. Contact with these fluids may cause damage to the seal materials. |
Installation and Maintenance |
|
Installation |
The installation of Lowara - 01 is relatively simple. It is designed for easy replacement and can be installed without complex tools. It is important to ensure that the installation surface is clean and flat to avoid leakage. |
Maintenance |
Regular inspection of the seal faces for wear and damage is required. If necessary, the seal faces can be replaced. The spring should also be checked for proper elasticity and corrosion. |
Performance Metrics |
|
Leakage Rate |
Less than 5 ml/h under normal operating conditions. This low leakage rate ensures efficient operation of the pump and reduces the loss of fluids. |
Service Life |
Under normal operating conditions, the service life of Lowara - 01 can reach up to 2 years. However, this may vary depending on the specific operating conditions and fluid properties. |
Certifications |
|
Compliance |
The mechanical seal meets international standards such as ISO 9001 for quality management and ISO 14001 for environmental management. It also complies with relevant industry safety standards. |
