Installing the Seal
1. Before starting the installation, read the following instructions carefully.
2. Remove the seal from its packaging, inspect for any damage, and wipe
clean.
3. The equipment should be clean and meet the specifications noted in the
“Preparing the Equipment” section. Lubricate sleeve O-ring with lubri-
cant recommended in chart below. Lubricate shaft sparingly. Lubricate
gland plate bolts/nuts as required.
4. Make sure that gland adapter gasket is properly positioned, and
that collar set screws do not extend past sleeve ID. Slide complete
cartridge seal assembly onto shaft. For ANSI pumps position gland
plate so pipe connection #1 is at or near top dead center. For DIN
pumps, position gland plate so slot between pipe connections
#3 and #4 is at or near top dead center. Slide cartridge onto studs
(if applicable) until gasket is flush against the face of seal chamber.
Hand tighten gland plate bolts/nuts.
5. Reassemble pump and make all necessary impeller adjustments.
6. Continue tightening gland plate bolts/nuts in an alternating pattern
until gland plate is secure (1/4 turns, 180˚ apart). Do not over-
stress or distort gland plate.
7. Tighten collar set screws evenly (1/4 turns, 180˚ apart), securing
cartridge seal to shaft.
8. Remove spacers and save.
9. Make appropriate piping connections to seal assembly.
