Mechanical seals introduction, basic components, and significance

1. 1 Mechanical seals play a vital role in machines and pumps. They prevent fluid from entering the electrical system and thereby protect them from the damage. They seal the rotating part of the shaft against the stationary parts or components of mechanical devices. Different mechanical seal manufacturers in India develop varied types of seals depending upon the functionality of the machines. Significance of mechanical seals As mechanical seals prevent the leakage of fluid to affect external surroundings of the machine, they are ideal for machines that use chemicals in the processing like Sulfuric acid or HCL or any other harsh compounds. Mechanical seals offer lower frictional drag in pumps which results in improvement in throughput of the pumps. Also, the power consumption undergoes a significant drop with the use of seals.

2. 2 The use of mechanical seal provides long life to the mechanical components. The shafts and sleeves do wear out easily. Consequently, it reduces the need for frequent maintenance of the machine parts. As compared to conventional packing methods, mechanical seals are capable to bear high pressure and speed. For a variety of industrial applications, different mechanical seals are available that suits the unique requirement of every machine. Components of the Mechanical seal With different mechanical seal manufacturers and the varied applications, the components of the seals vary. Here are the basic components of the most commonly used mechanical seals. Rotating face: This is the part of the seal that is connected to the rotating shaft. As the name suggests, it is a moving component of the seal. Fixed face: It is a stationary part that is attached to the pump housing. Secondary sealants: Shaft and insert mountings act as secondary seals in between the two faces of mechanical seals. Other hardware: The other hardware components in mechanical seals include pins, compression rings, bellows, gland etc. Ambica Machine Tools: Leading Mechanical and Teflon Bellow Seal Manufacturer in India Apart from manufacturing superior quality industrial pumps, we also specialize in providing pump spare parts and necessary fixes.
