Have you ever had a mechanical seal fail?

Conventional seals are designed to leak small amounts of fluid across their seal faces to keep the mating surfaces lubricated. As a result any debris will eventually find its way to the seal Face and cause the seal to fail.

THE ANSWER: CIRCOFLEX® SEALS DO NOT ALLOW LEAKAGE OF ANYTHING
ACROSS THE FACES. IN OTHER WORDS -A DRY FACE SEAL.

HOW CAN THE CircoFlex® SEAL RUN DRY FACES WHEN OTHERS CAN‘T?

1. The materials of the mating faces provide their own dry film lubricant. They run continuously on this dry film. No additional lubrication is needed or tolerated.
2. The design concept of the dry face seal provides a central element that results in a three element system rather than the conventional two element system.
3. The central ¡§Floating element¡¨ of the dry face seal design contains two sets of mating faces that alternately become static faces and dynamic faces.
4. The springs of the dry face seal are incorporated as part of the floating element design and are not exposed to the fluid being pumped.
5. We fully expect the dry face seal to out perform conventional seals by a factor of 4 to 1. We do it every day of the week, 24/7, 365, year after year.
