2.3 Slide the ISC2 seal cartridge onto the shaft or pump sleeve with the

setting devices toward the bearing housing. See Figure 2.

2.4 Install the seal chamber and bolt it in place on the bearing frame.

See Figure 3.

2.5 Position the ISC2 seal with the gland tight against the seal chamber.
2.6 Orient the ISC2 seal with the ports aiming as shown on the seal

assembly drawing. See Section 3 for Piping Recommendations.

2.7 Tighten the gland nuts evenly in a diagonal sequence. Do not over-

tighten the gland nuts, as this can warp seal parts and cause leakage.

Confirm adequate thread engagement before final torque setting.

Note: Some equipment with small bore seal chambers provide limited access

to the gland bolting and setting device cap screws. In some situations, the gland

fasteners interfere with the setting devices and window access may require

deviation from the standard fastening sequence. For example, the collar/sleeve

assembly may need to be rotated slightly from its factory-set position by loosening

the setting device cap screws, rotating the collar/sleeve assembly, then tightening

the screws. When nonstandard processes are followed, be careful to maintain

the integrity of the seal cartridge at all times.
