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 />
