CAUTION! DRIP LEAKAGE IS ESSENTIAL TO PREVENT OVER HEATING OF THE GLAND AREA WHICH WILL CAUSE SEAL FAILURE.

IMPORTANT! Stop and remove gland guard for checking temperature of housing and observing leakage. ALWAYS REPLACE THE GUARD BEFORE RESTARTING.

1. Lightly tighten up the gland follower.

2. Flood the pumphead and determine if the gland leakage is acceptable. Tighten the gland follower nuts until an acceptable leakage is achieved.

3. Start the pump and allow to run for 10 minutes. If the gland becomes significantly hotter than other parts of the pump, the gland is too tight.

4. Stop the pump and allow it to cool then repeat the above until the gland temperature is stable and gland slightly weeping.

5. Run the pump at 10 minute intervals tightening the gland follower nuts by a ½ of a turn until the leak is at an acceptable rate.;

– The seal rotary face is driven by a pin which locates in a slot on the shaft. A washer is located between the shaft shoulder and rotary face. A seal between the rotary face and shaft is provided by an 'O' ring.

– The stationary face is prevented from rotating as it has a flat side which sits in the rotorcase bore. Face to face contact is provided by a wave spring. Axial movement of the stationary face is prevented by a retaining clip. An 'O' ring within the rotorcase bore provides a seal onto the stationary face.

CAUTION! SEAL FACES ARE BRITTLE - TAKE EXTREME CARE WHEN HANDLING.

1. Carefully support and remove the rotorcase with the stationary sealing face still within its bore.

2. Slide the remaining rotary face from the shaft.

3. Release the retaining clip and remove the stationary face for inspection.

1. Use solvent to wipe the lapped surface of the seal faces until PERFECTLY clean, being extremely careful not to scratch the faces.

– The packing rings are located within the gland housing and are tightened onto the shaft sleeve by adjusting the gland follower. On flushed packed glands a lantern ring replaces the middle ring of packing. The shaft sleeve is retained to the shaft by three socket set screws and is sealed by an 'O' ring.

1. Release and pull back the gland follower.

2. Remove the rotorcase with gland housing, packing and gland follower still assembled.

3. Loosen the shaft sleeve socket set screws and extract the sleeve from the shaft.

4. Inspect and replace the packing and shaft sleeve if necessary.

1. Lubricate the 'O'ring, locate in shaft sleeve and slide onto the shaft.

2. Tighten up the socket set screws.
