Cartex Dual seals
Cartex Dual seals

Features

  • Dual seal
  • Cartridge
  • Balanced
  • Independent of direction of rotation
  • Double pressure balanced
  • Integrated pumping device
  • Variants available: for eccentric screw pumps (-Vario) and gas-lubricated version (-GSDN)

Advantages

  • Ideal seal for standardizations
  • Universal applicable for packings conversions, retrofits or OEM
  • No dimensional modification of the seal chamber (centrifugal pumps) necessary, small radial installation height
  • No damage of the shaft by dynamically loaded O-Ring
  • Extended service life
  • No damage caused by dirt entered during assembly
  • Straightforward and easy installation due to pre-assembled unit
  • Individual adaptation to pump designpossible
  • Customer specific versions available
