Mechanical Seals & Gland Assemblies
Eliminate chronic slurry leakage and operate with or without external water flush.
Sealing Engineering for Heavy Mining Slurries
Shaft seal failures represent the leading cause of unscheduled shutdowns and bearing contamination in tailings and concentrate pumping circuits. SMAT provides three proven field configurations matching your plant water balance:
| Sealing Type | Operating Advantages | Flush Water Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic Centrifugal Expeller Seal | Auxiliary back-impeller expels solids away from shaft via centrifugal force during operation. | Zero gland water required (ideal for arid locations and water-conservation mills). |
| Standard Packed Gland | Graphite or PTFE reinforced packing rings with split lantern ring for clean water injection. | Continuous clean water supply at pressure exceeding pump discharge. |
| Heavy-Duty Cartridge Mechanical Seal | Silicon carbide vs tungsten carbide faces lubricated by process slurry or barrier fluid. | Zero product dilution and zero visible leakage across plant floor. |
