Mechanical Slurry Seals BA BF ESF

Product catalog summary
Overview: Metso provides a comprehensive range of mechanical slurry seals designed for slurry pumps, addressing various industrial needs such as water conservation, zero leakage, and reduced operating costs. These seals are particularly beneficial in applications where traditional packing fails or where environmental concerns are paramount.
Seal Types and Applications:
  • BF - Single Mechanical Cartridge Seal: Ideal for applications requiring zero leakage of gland water, suitable for mildly abrasive slurries such as mine dewatering and wastewater handling.
  • BA - Double Mechanical Cartridge Seal: Suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications, especially effective in ultra-fine particle applications and hazardous liquids.
  • ESF - Single Mechanical Seal: Designed to replace pump packing seals in existing gland housings, suitable for abrasive slurries with high solids concentration.
Design Features:
  • Cartridge Design: Facilitates easy installation and retrofitting, reducing installation costs and time.
  • Seal Face Materials: Options include Silicon Carbide, Tungsten Carbide, and Diamond coating for enhanced performance in heavy-duty applications.
  • Axial Adjustment: Allows for optimization of pump performance without face isolation.
Additional Features:
  • Barrier Fluid Systems: Various configurations available to provide lubrication and cooling, enhancing seal life.
  • Flow Monitoring Device: Includes a constant flow valve and flow indicator for easy monitoring and trouble-free seal flushing.
  • Repair Kits: Available for on-site or workshop repairs, ensuring convenience and cost-effectiveness.
Contact Information: Metso Corporation and its subsidiaries are located globally, providing support and services across various regions including Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia-Pacific.

Mechanical Slurry Seals BA BF ESF-6

Mechanical seal accessories Barrier fluid systems Barrier fluid systems come in many configurations to satisfy a wide range of mechanical seal applications. The BA and BF mechanical seal may be combined with a special Thermosiphon system that circulates liquid due to the temperature difference of the sealing liquid inside the seal and in the tank, thus providing lubrication and cooling for the seal faces. To induce even more liquid to circulate and hence increase the cooling effect, the seal can be equipped with a pumping ring inside the seal. Pump operating pressure, the slurry being pumped...
