Why Sealless Pumps are Preferred for Chemical Processing Applications
While pumps utilizing mechanical seals play a key role in many applications, it’s no secret that whenever process conditions change, pumps can occasionally run outside of their designed parameters, and this can lead to stress on the seals, which can cause problems elsewhere in the pump. When planning a new installation, CAPEX for the seal support system is considerable. After installation, OPEX for seal monitoring & maintenance activities is unavoidable.

Sealless pumps eliminate the seal and associated support systems, providing an economical, reliable and leak-free solution for handling toxic or hazardous liquids.
