SLC Series seals are heavy duty single cartridge seals built for the harshest slurry pump services found in mining, mineral and ore processing, and flue gas desulfurization. The SLC Series is designed with a unique non-clogging cone spring that increases seal reliability and enables flushless operation for low operating costs.
Features:
- Encapsulated cone spring increases reliability by providing consistent spring loading and hydraulic balancing to the seal faces without clogging or wearing.
- Abrasion-resistant and corrosion-resistant metal components and silicon carbide seal faces extend seal life beyond slurry pump components to maximize equipment uptime.
- Clean, open design operates without flush water to help reduce product dilution and save significant water-related operational costs.
- Consistent, correct installation is achieved by the cartridge design from the pump equipment’s wet or dry end with no special tools or seal-related bearing housing adjustments.
- Available outboard lip seal and Plan 62 grease or water quench provide lubrication to the seal faces during dry running pump cycles.
- Six group sizes meet the requirements of most slurry pump equipment giving maximum flexibility with minimum inventory.
Operating Parameters:
- Pressures to 20.7 bar (300 psig)
- Temperatures to 77°C (170°F) without quench; 110°C (230°F) with quench; for higher temperature applications contact your local Flowserve representative
- Slurry concentrations to 60% solids by weight
- Particle hardness to 9 MOH
- Surface speeds to 15 m/s (3000 fpm)
- Shaft sizes from 35 to 220 mm (1.375 to 8.661 inches)
