BW Seals® Pern on Crean Products And ServicessHARING EXPERIENCE y , ‘The mechanical seal is critical to the smooth operation of centrifugal pumps, compressors and mixers. BW Seals® introduced its first mechanical seal over 45 years ago. Since then, we have gained great expertise in the design and manutacture of seals and of complete sealing systems. BW Seals ® main product lines and services are summarized in this brochure. {All seals can be supplied as complete cartridge units with shaft ‘sleeves and seal flanges engineered to fit your machinery. ‘Special designs and material combinations can be provided {for duties demanding specific seal capabilities. BW Seals® has installed its products in major refineries to seal applications such as: > residues ’ ‘Today our products are installed under various conditions in diverse industries: oilfields, pipelines, refineries, petrochemical and chemical plants, mineral and ore processing industries, power generating plants and the pulp and paper industry. BW Seals® are used on: = booster and pressure stage boiler feed pumps: = condensate extraction pumps = heater drains pumps. ‘Share our experience and upgrade the efficiency, safety and teliabilty of your equipment.wa I quick REFERENCE ‘A quick reference guide for selection of the recommended seal type for various sroupe depending on application. ‘Application areas Single seals a Double seals indem seals 8 : noe i ‘iw aed eo ee 28 go 2 oe S353 He gee be sae e Ao BS Sraegi& 8gare sg E98 o gg os 8 5 a5.
