The LIQUIDYNE is a water lubricated pump shaft seal. It comes with a condition monitoring function, which makes the product lifetime predictable. This gives users grip on maintenance and avoids sudden pump failure.
The seal may consist out of four types of modules, fulfilling (1) a sealing, (2) a pressure reducing, (3) a dirt retaining and/or (4) a vacuum function.
The LIQUIDYNE is water lubricated. Briefly explained, water flows over de grooved bush to lubricate, rinse and cool the seal. the condition monitoring function is enabled by this water flow. As the flow decreases, product lifetime decreases. More about the LIQUIDYNE working principle ».
For pumps that process water containing little or smaller abrasive particles.
For pumps that process water containing much or bigger abrasive particles.
For pumps where the stuffing box pressure can be below atmospheric level (process water may contain abrasive particles).
For (vertical) pumps that utilize a vacuum system to fill the pump.
For pumps that ask for a special sealing solution.
