Mechanical seal for pumpO-ringWhat are the causes of leakage failure?
What are the reasons for the leakage and failure of the O-ring of the pump mechanical seal? When we choose the normal sealing ring element, why will the leakage occur? Dongsheng seal tells you that we can generally monitor the reasons from the installation, use status, operation speed, shutdown failure and other aspects of the mechanical seal.
1. mechanical O-ring leakage during static test? After mechanical seal is installed and debugged, static test shall be carried out to observe the leakage. If the leakage is small, it is mostly a problem with the dynamic ring or static ring sealing ring; when the leakage is large, it indicates that there is a problem between the dynamic and static ring friction pairs. On the basis of preliminary observation of leakage amount and judgment of leakage parts, the O-ring is manually turned to observe. If there is no obvious change in leakage amount, there is a problem with static and moving ring sealing rings. If there is obvious change in leakage amount during turning, it can be concluded that there is a problem with the friction pair of dynamic and static rings. If the leaking medium is sprayed along the axial direction, the moving ring sealing ring (O-ring) has most problems, and the leaking medium, it is mostly static ring sealing ring failure.
Leakage of 2. mechanical O-ring during test run? After static test of pump mechanical seal, the centrifugal force generated by high-speed rotation of O-ring during operation will inhibit the leakage of medium. Therefore, the mechanical seal leakage during the test run is basically caused by the damage of the dynamic and static ring friction pairs after the seal failure between the shafts and the end cover is eliminated.
3. mechanical O-ring power failure or failure to stop the situation? Centrifugal pump in the normal operation of the O-ring sudden leakage, if not found in time, often lead to a larger accident or loss, must be paid attention to and take measures. Especially for accidents caused by sudden power failure, we must do a good job of power supply O-ring. Reminder: There are primary and secondary differences in seal leakage. As long as you observe carefully and are familiar with the structure, you will be able to judge correctly.

a qualifiedO-ringDesign issues that need attention?
O-ring is a rubber ring with a circular cross-section. Because its cross-section is O-shaped, Dongsheng sealing ring tells you that it is called O-ring. It is widely used in hydraulic and pneumatic transmission systems.
O-ring is a circular cross-section ring rubber seal, mainly used for mechanical parts in static conditions to prevent the leakage of liquid and gas media. In some cases, the O-ring can also be used as a dynamic sealing element for axial reciprocating motion and low-speed rotating motion. According to different conditions, different materials can be selected to adapt to it.
A qualified O-ring design and application of attention to the problem? O-ring seal is usually as large as possible cross-section of the O-ring, in the case of the same gap, the O-ring seal is squeezed into the gap volume should be less than the allowable value.
O-ring seal is a common sealing form in fluid power system. It works well in many fluid power systems, but it must be cautious and careful in its action. The O-ring can only play a role when it is deformed.
An O-ring seal, such as an O-ring, is installed in the seal groove and then compressed so that there is no gap in the seal groove, thereby sealing the liquid or gas flow. Although this simple seal structure seals well in fluid power systems, only careful design, careful selection and proper installation can achieve a good seal.
