Seal Chamber Requirements

Figure 1

1.4 Make sure the shaft or sleeve and the seal housing face are clean

and free of burrs, cuts, dents, or corrosion that might cause leakage

past the sleeve gasket or gland gasket. Replace worn shaft or

sleeve. Remove sharp edges from keyways and threads.

1.5 Check equipment dimensions to ensure that they are within the

specifications shown in Figures 1 and 2. Critical dimensions from

Figure 2 include:

• Box Bore (ØC)

• Box Depth (G)(Q)

• Distance to First Obstruction (K)

• Pump Frame accomodates Gland OD (ØE)

1.6 Check gland bolting to ensure the bolt diameter and bolt circle

conform to the dimensions shown in Figure 2. Check gland bolt

length to ensure adequate thread engagement for the actual seal

gland.

1.7 Check gland bolt length to ensure adequate thread engagement

for the actual seal gland. Gland dimensions are provided in the

drawing that accompanied the seal.

1.8 Handle the ISC with care, it is manufactured to precise tolerances.

The sealing faces of the ISC seal are the rotating and stationary

faces. They are lapped flat to within three helium light bands (34.8

millionths of an inch). Keep the seal faces perfectly clean at all

times.

If the pump condition exceeds the above criteria (including consideration for thermal growth), consult

Flowserve Application Engineering for recommendations to avoid seal performance compromises.
