Cartridge seal arrangement improves vacuum pump performance

摘要

Moving from a ma ntenance regime involving the replacement of gland packings on vacuum pumps every nine weeks to one where the pumps have run for 18 months without any maintenance is a remarkable achievement. For Solvent Resource Management Limited (SRM).one of the largest companies in Europe handling the disposal of organic waste materials, this turnaround has been achieved at its Knottingley solvent recovery plant thanks to the fluid engineering skills of AxFlow.
