Espey WKA250ND

Features

  • Chamber seal (modular design – can be combined in any order), optional with housing and lid
  • Multi-part seal rings, radially cut
  • Very small operation gap - low leakage
  • Dry running
  • Self-adjusting seal rings
  • Seal rings bear radial shaft movements
  • Compensates axial shaft movements
  • No sealing components mounted on the shaft and hence no additional shaft vibrations
  • Seal rings running contact-free - sliding faces and machine consume no additional power
  • Balanced seal ring inside chamber

Advantages

  • High reliability
  • Long-term operation time
  • Maintainability
  • Segmented seal rings for easy replacement
