These bearings are located within a containment shell with no shaft exposed to atmosphere
HI Pump FAQs
A liquid-lubricated seal may have no visible leakage.
There has been an effort to upgrade pumps originally designed for packing to accommodate mechanical seals.
Can coatings be applied to increase the efficiency of a pump?
Forced vibration is due to a mechanical or hydraulic component of the pump
VSDs allow the pump speed to be lowered or increased
Understand types of PD pumps for this application
What material considerations should be made?
Acceleration transducers (accelerometers) are typically used to measure vibration on stationary components.
The design does not use a dynamic shaft seal as a primary containment device.
