What is the effect of centrifugal pump seal ring damage
2022-10-10
Centrifugal pump seal ring damage will have the following series of effects:

Media leakage: The sealing ring is a key component to prevent liquid leakage in the pump, and once damaged, it will cause the conveyed fluid to leak out directly from the shaft seal. For toxic and harmful, high-temperature and high-pressure or expensive fluids, this not only wastes resources, but can also pose a threat to the environment and human safety.
Pollution and safety hazards: The leaking fluid may contaminate the surrounding equipment and working environment, and if hazardous chemicals are involved, it may cause safety accidents such as fire and explosion.
Bearing failure: If the leakage into the bearing area, the lubricant will be diluted or replaced by contaminated fluid, resulting in the lack of effective lubrication of the bearing and overheating wear or even stuck, further causing excessive axial movement, which may eventually lead to motor damage.
System efficiency reduction: the flow rate and head of the pump will be reduced due to leakage, which will affect the operating efficiency of the entire system, causing instability in the production process and reducing production capacity.
Increased Maintenance costs: Frequent replacement of seals and repair of other damaged parts can lead to increased maintenance costs, as well as indirect economic losses due to downtime.
Environmental compliance issues: In some industries that strictly comply with environmental regulations, media leaks may lead to substandard emissions, resulting in penalties from the environmental protection department and the need to invest more resources in environmental remediation.
Continuous operation interruption: If there is no backup pump facility, the downtime caused by pump seal damage will directly affect the continuous operation of the production line, especially in the important production and process links, this interruption loss is huge.
Therefore, it is very important to keep the sealing ring of the centrifugal pump in good condition and to check and replace it regularly.以上翻译结果来自有道神经网络翻译(YNMT)· 通用场景
