Description
The CPM PP seal is a cartridge mounted mechanical seal, designed for
ease of installation and reliable operation. No seal setting dimensions
are required. Rotatable setting devices provide proper alignment. The
exible stator design compensates for inadvertent misalignment of the
seal chamber face. Multiple springs provide uniform face loading and
are external of the pumpage, resisting clogging or hang-up. Installation
according to the following steps will assure long trouble free life of the
CPM PP seal.
1 Equipment Check
1.1 Follow plant safety regulations prior to equipment disassembly:
• lock out motor and valves.
• wear designated personal safety equipment.
• relieve any pressure in the system.
• consult plant MSDS les for hazardous material regulations.
1.2 Disassemble equipment in accordance with equipment
manufacturer’s instructions to allow access to seal installation
area.
1.3 Remove all burrs and sharp edges from the shaft or sleeve
including sharp edges of keyways and threads. Replace shaft or
sleeve if it is worn in the sleeve packing area. Make sure the seal
housing bore and face are clean and free of burrs.
1.4 Make sure the shaft or sleeve and the seal housing face are
clean and free of burrs, cuts, dents, or corrosion that might cause
leakage past the sleeve gasket 19 and gland gasket O-ring 18 .
See Figure 1 & 2. Replace worn shaft or sleeve if it is worn in the
sleeve packing area. Remove sharp edges from keyways and
threads.

1.5 Check equipment dimensions to ensure that they are within the
dimensions shown in Figures 1 and 2. Critical dimensions include
shaft or sleeve OD (A), a chamber depth of at least dimension (G),
minimum and maximum seal housing bore (C), and the minimum
distance to the rst obstruction (K). See Figure 2.
1.6 Check gland bolting to ensure that bolt diameter (M) and bolt
circle diameter (L) conform to the dimensions shown in Figure 2.
1.7 Handle the CPM PP with care, it is manufactured to precise
tolerances. The sealing faces consisting of 14 and 14.1 and rotor
parts 15 and 15.1 are of special importance. They are lapped at
to within three light bands (34.8 millionths of an inch). Keep the
seal faces perfectly clean at all times.
