Industry Application Of Mechanical Seals

At present, the main cooperation directions of domestic mechanical seal providers are thermal power generation, alumina industry, petrochemical industry, chemical industry, papermaking, food and shipbuilding, as well as countless other segmented industries. Under normal circumstances, mechanical seals may be used in places with water pumps. According to the latest statistics from China's petrochemical industry, 80% to 90% of centrifugal pumps use mechanical seals. And mechanical seals have also achieved good performance in many working conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, high speed, flammable, explosive, and corrosive media.
Taking the application of mechanical seals in the petrochemical industry as an example.
1. Mechanical seals for pumps: The reliability of pumps largely depends on mechanical seals. In petrochemical enterprises, the fluids processed are mostly flammable and explosive. Once mechanical seals fail and leak, it not only pollutes the environment and affects human health, but also leads to major accidents such as fires and explosions. We mainly start with the selection of sealing structures for mechanical seals used in petroleum refining pumps under different working conditions, in order to reduce the failure rate of seals and improve their reliability.
2. Valves: Valves are an indispensable part of petrochemical refining equipment, with a wide variety and large quantity of valves used. The media used in chemical production are often highly corrosive, toxic, or flammable and explosive. When valves leak, it not only causes serious waste of raw materials, energy, and products, but also has a serious impact on the environment, and even leads to serious safety accidents. Therefore, it is necessary and necessary for us to pay attention to the problem of valve leakage in the petrochemical production process.
3. Universal seals: With the continuous advancement of static sealing technology, rubber sealing products and gasket materials and structures have made significant progress, and their applications in various sealing fields are also extremely extensive, including the petrochemical industry. Along with this, its ancillary industries will also be stimulated, and the development prospects of the entire industry chain are extremely promising. The current development of mechanical seals is becoming mature and stable, and their application in the petrochemical industry also occupies a very large proportion.
