HI Introduces New Dual Gas Seals Improve Pump System Reliability & Performance Webinar

Matching the right elastomer to an application is key to ensuring an o-ring’s optimal performance and mitigating premature failure. One critical factor to consider is resistance to process fluids.

Sustainable ingredients will help curb the carbon footprint of some polymer compounds at Freudenberg

Sulzer has launched a new shut-off device SOD for horizontal SALOMIX™ SSA agitators that significantly reduces the time spent on servicing the seal. The device enables seal maintenance without emptying the tank, which makes the feature especially useful for very large tanks, wastewater treatment plants, and other critical processes.

In appliances used for water purification and carbonated water, the valve of a carbon dioxide cartridge and the pressure-reducing valve on the device itself must be joined with a secure seal. Now, Freudenberg Sealing Technologies has developed a patented, high-performance polyurethane seal for a customer that has a specific geometry that not only accommodates different valve dimensions on the various gas cartridges, but also offers high impermeability under long-lasting pressure.

Sealing Technologies can now validate the superior performance capabilities of the intelligent seals it has under development. In addition to their core function, these seals can handle tasks such as sensor applications and monitoring their own state of wear. As a result, they enhance the reliability of machines and systems they help power by providing data about their state of performance and safety.

Labyrinth seals can now be ordered from Vesconite Bearings using client specifications. This follows the supply and successful use of Vesconite labyrinth seals by several large pump original equipment manufacturers in multiple labyrinth seal designs over the past 10 years.
