| Savings
over the purchase of a new seal is obvious. Nobody in his right
mind would buy a new car because the tires are worn out, or the
windshield wipers streak. |
Wearable
parts are also present and as easily replaced ina mechanical seal.
Economics is the key ingredient. Yet beyond this most obvious analogy,
there are even more important reasons for getting a seal repaired-
1.
Failure analysis - why did the seal fail ?
|
| If
a seal leaks prematurely, there are three fundamental reasons
why this can happen: |
|
|
|
|
| In
the hands of an expert, the physical evidence surrounding the mechanical
seals reveals what brought about the failure. Being able to pinpoint
the cause and take corrective action in the make-up of the seal
can be an invaluable part of the service. |
Depending
upon the the findings of cause, face materials may be upgraded,
secondary
seal materials could be changed for greater compatibility, seal
configurations can be modified, and/or operational procedures
evaluated.
Does it make sense to just replace a failed seal...
and have the same thing happen again without knowing “why”?
|
| 2.
Quick turn-a-round - limiting equipment down time. |
With
fluid equipment and spare part sourcing world-wide, seal part
identification, and timely replacement is not always realistic.
Manufacturing is Harbor Seal’s ability to produce - totally-in-house-
even the most sophisticated sealing elements. Seal Repair is a
most atractive option. Depending upon customer requirements, emergency
repairs can be handled on a same day or 24hr. basis.
At this time, customers are serviced from the most distant and
extreme points such as Singapore, Australia, Antwerp as easily
as New York or Hawaii. Overnight delivery service makes it practical.
