ABRASIVE SEPARATORS<br />
U.S. Seal’s abrasive separators provide a simple yet extremely effective method <strong>of</strong> keeping dirt and other<br />
abrasives from the sealing faces - a method that can increase seal or packing life many times over to greatly<br />
reduce replacement and maintenance costs. Connected to the discharge side <strong>of</strong> the pump, the separator<br />
takes the abrasive-laden fluid and removes foreign bodies <strong>complete</strong>ly. The clean fluid is then injected into the<br />
gland housing over the seal faces. This is particularly important in plant start ups where foreign particles are<br />
invariably present in the liquid. It also permits the taking <strong>of</strong> service water from streams, rivers, lakes, and other<br />
sources containing abrasives without the usual wear to <strong>seals</strong> or packings.<br />
Operation<br />
Principle: Liquid piped from the pump discharge<br />
enters the feed tap and is rotated<br />
inside the cone shaped bore at a velocity<br />
dependent on the pressure differential. The<br />
particles in the liquids being <strong>of</strong> greater densities<br />
remain close to the tapered wall <strong>of</strong> the<br />
cone and are forced downward to the discharge<br />
outlet at the bottom <strong>of</strong> separator.<br />
From there, they are piped with a small<br />
amount <strong>of</strong> liquid to a lower pressure point in<br />
the system. No liquid is lost. The clean liquid<br />
rises up through the outlet at the top <strong>of</strong> the<br />
separator and is then piped to the housing for<br />
flushing the seal faces or lantern gland if<br />
packings are used.<br />

Conditions<br />
1. Minimum pressure differential <strong>of</strong> 20 psi<br />
should be maintained between feed and<br />
overflow.<br />
2. Specific gravity <strong>of</strong> the particles being separated<br />
must be greater than the liquid.<br />
3. Centrifugal separators are only effective<br />
with inherent abrasives such as sand,<br />
small particles <strong>of</strong> iron oxide, scaly substances,<br />
or other natural debris.In contrast,<br />
chromates and any substances that are<br />
dissolved in the liquid cannot be removed<br />
by a centrifugal separator.<br />

PACKING AND PACKING PRODUCTS<br />
STYLE 58 - PFTE Based Packing - General and Chemical Service<br />
Construction Features<br />
Interlace Braid<br />
Style 58 has individual continuous filament yarns which<br />
are impregnated with a high-purity graphite and<br />
high-temperature lubricant.<br />
The graphite and lubricant assist with break-in, reduce<br />
friction, and dissipate heat throughout the stuffing box.<br />

Product Description<br />
Style 58 combines the chemical-resistant and<br />
low-friction generation characteristics <strong>of</strong> continuous<br />
PTFE filament yarns with the superior heat dissipation<br />
and self-lubricating properties <strong>of</strong> graphite.<br />
An excellent choice for chemical resistance, this<br />
nonabrasive packing provides excellent conformability,<br />
adjustability and flexibility. A superior, low-maintenance<br />
choice where minimum field adjustment and fast<br />
break-in and start-up are necessary.<br />
Style 58 Packing is ideal for controlled leakage and<br />
extrusion resistance at high pressures and shaft<br />
speeds. When used as a multipurpose packing,<br />
inventory costs are greatly reduced.<br />
Applications<br />
Air, ammonia, chemicals, condensate, corrosives,<br />
gases, liquor, oils, paper stock, solvents, steam and<br />
water<br />
Typical Equipment<br />
Agitators, digesters, expansion joints, mixers, pumps,<br />
reciprocating and rotating equipment, valve stems<br />
