Advantages v/s disadvantages of Gland Packing

Only Advantage

Low cost alternative

Page 14: Seal Basic 4

Disadvantages ??? Many …...

•Loss of product

• A potential source of pollution!!!

•Asbestos is banned in all developed countries!!

•More friction leading to more heat generation, less efficiency

•Less bearing life due to entry of water in bearings

•Higher maintenance cost

•More down time

•More Power Consumption

Page 15: Seal Basic 4

Is there any other solution ?

Page 16: Seal Basic 4

Yes!!! Somebody said ….Mechanical seals!!

Page 17: Seal Basic 4

IT IS A DEVICE THAT PREVENTS /

RESTRICTS UN- DESIRABLE FLOW OF FLUID

IN THE ROTATING EQUIPMENT FROM HIGH

CHAMBER PRESSURE TO LOWER SIDE.

It consists of precise machining

parts and seals mechanically.

And that is why it is called a

“Mechanical seal”.

BASIC SEAL WORKS ON THE PRINCIPLE OF :

THIN LIQUID FILM BETWEEN A ROTARY AND STATIONARY FACE. ONE SOFT FACE AND ONE HARD FACE ROTATING AGAINST EACH OTHER.

NO INTERRUPTION IN LIQUID FILM.

NO GAS PHASE TO PREVENT FACE CONTACT.

NO SOLID PARTICLES TO DAMAGE SEAL FACE.

Classification

• Balance Ratio - Balanced / Unbalanced

• Mounting method - Inside / Outside

• Flexible elements - Springs / Bellows

• Rotation - Springs rotating/stationary

• Arrangements - Single / Dual

Page 25: Seal Basic 4

SEAL CATEGORIES

• O ring seals• Wedge seals

• More material options• Higher Pressures• Easier to manufacture

• Metal Bellows

• Rubber Bellows

• PTFE Bellows

• No ‘hang up’

• Better leakage rates

• Better abrasive handling

• More tolerant to misalignments

PUSHER SEALS(NON BELLOWS)

NON PUSHER SEALS(BELLOWS)

Page 26: Seal Basic 4

Unbalanced seal

Hydraulic Load plus Spring load Close Faces

Area “A” always Greater than Area “B”

Face stress is therefore high High Temperature

High face wear

Page 27: Seal Basic 4

Balanced sealSeals need to be Hydraulically balanced, to seal pressures > 10 Bars G

Balanced Diameter

In balanced seal Hydraulic load through Area “A” isis spread over Larger area “B”.

The resultant stress is lower than Unbalanced seal

Page 28: Seal Basic 4

Design Features

• Springs

– Provide The Initial Closing Force

– Are Very Important At Low Pressures

– Are Not So Important At High Pressures

Page 29: Seal Basic 4

Design Features

• Springs– For High Speed Seals Use Stationary Springs

(25m/s Typical Break Point)

SINGLE COIL SPRING SEALS

LONG PITCH BETWEEN COILS AVOIDS CLOGGING OF SPRINGS, IN SLURRY APPLICATION. SINGLE COIL SPRING IS STURDY TO KEEP FACES IN CONTACT TONGUE & GROOVE DRIVE IS STRONG DRIVE TO AVOID SLIPPAGES WHILE FACE TRACKING. SEAL IS INDEPENDENT OF DIRECTION OF DIRECTION OF ROTATIONSEAL OCCUPIES LONG SPACE. AXIAL SPACE IN STUFFING BOXES NEED TO BE CONSIDERED, WHILE DESIGNING THE SEAL.

API PLANS

Page 47: Seal Basic 4

API Circulation Systems

Seals generate heat and require lubrication while face sealing. These systems are used to dissipate this generated heat and cool the seal faces thus extending the seal life

Page 48: Seal Basic 4

FLUSHING

PROVIDES LUBRICATION.

REMOVES HEAT GENERATED BETWEEN RUBBING FACES.

INCREASES MARGIN BETWEEN VAPOUR PRESSURE AND STUFFING

BOX PRESSURE.

KEEPS LIQUID INSIDE STUFFING BOX IN CONSTANT CIRCULATION. IN CASE OF EXTERNAL FLUID FLUSHING - FLUSHING DOES NOT ALLOW ABRASIVES TO REACH SEAL FACES.

Page 49: Seal Basic 4

QUENCHING

KEEPS ATMOSPHERE AWAY TOXIC FLUIDS

CRYSTALLIZING PRODUCTS

CRYOGENIC APPLICATIONS

HIGH FREEZING POINT FLUIDS

HIGH TEMP. FLUIDS WHICH DECOMPOSE IN CONTACT WITH ATMOSPHERE

FLUID HAS A TENDENCY TO BECOME VISCOUS IN CONTACT WITH THE ATMOSPHERE

ADDITIONAL ADVANTAGES

PROVIDES HEATING / COOLING TO SEAL FACES.

KEEPS AREA OUTSIDE SEALS CLEAN

Page 50: Seal Basic 4

SEAL SELECTION

Page 51: Seal Basic 4

SELECTION & SPECIFICATIONS

Once it is decided to give Mechanical seal following points must be checked to confirm design I) Chemical and Physical properties of fluid

to be sealedFor example:$ Gas or Liquid,$ Corrosive or non-Corrosive$ Viscosity$

Ability to lubricate under Boundary conditions$ Boiling point or Vapor pressure

Page 52: Seal Basic 4

SELECTION & SPECIFICATIONSII) The physical operation conditions :

For example:

$ Pressure differential to be sealed$ Temperature of environment or system$ Speed$ Fluctuations of temperature or pressure

$ Mechanical vibration, thermal expansionunder pressure of housings

$ Presence of abrasive material

$ Cleaning or sterilization at other operating conditions

$ Period out of use.

B) Pressure

C) Speed

D) Temp

Duty parameters for selecting amechanical seal are :

Page 54: Seal Basic 4

MEDIA

Corrosive – Material Of construction Crystallizing – Heating Dirty – Suitable Plan – Hard Faces Hazardous – Dual or Tandem Seal

Page 55: Seal Basic 4

PRESSURE

Unbalanced Seal – Up to 10 BAR Balanced Seal – Vacuum to 35 barHigher pressure – Special seal.

Suction pressure – ????Vapour Pressure – ????

Page 56: Seal Basic 4

SPEED

FOR MORE THAN 3000 RPM STATIONERY

SEALS ARE REQUIRED .
