1 Equipment Check

1.1 Follow plant safety regulations prior to equipment disassembly:

• lock out motor and valves.

• wear designated personal safety equipment.

• relieve any pressure in system.

• consult plant MSDS files for hazardous material regulations.

1.2 Disassemble equipment to allow access to seal installation area.
1.3 Remove all burrs and sharp edges from the shaft or sleeve including sharp edges

of keyways and threads. Replace worn shaft or sleeve. Make sure the seal housing

bore and face are clean and free of burrs.

1.4 Check requirements for shaft, sleeve and seal housing, see Figure 1.

Seal Chamber Requirements

Figure 1

1.5 Check assembly drawing included with the seal for specific seal design, materials

of construction, dimensions, and piping connections.

1.6 Check shaft or sleeve OD, box bore, box depth, and distance to the first

obstruction to ensure that they are dimensionally the same as shown on the seal

assembly drawing.

1.7 Check gland pilot and bolt holes to ensure they are adaptable to the equipment

and are the same as shown on the assembly drawing. Many cartridge Flowserve

seal designs include centering tabs, eccentric washers, or centering plates that do

not require a gland pilot.

1.8 Handle all seal parts with care, they are manufactured to precise tolerances.

2 Cartridge Flowserve Seal Installation

2.1 Lubricate the shaft or sleeve lightly with silicone lubricant provided with the seal

before installing any seal parts.

2.2 Install the complete cartridge Flowserve seal assembly on the shaft and position

it close to the bearing housing with the seal orientated toward the pump.
