E044HS1C23 Gland Assembly is used for 6/4 EAH, 8/6 EAH Slurry Pumps, and made in C23 (SS316L) material.
The gland packing is a contact-type sealing element. Compared with other types of shaft seals, they are adjustable and suitable for use with pressures and circumferential speeds higher than those radial shaft seal rings are used for
Gland packing
The gland packing's application limit is primarily determined by the extent to which heat developing due to friction can be dissipated. For heavy-duty gland packings, leakage water is actually pre-cooled by means of an internally cooled shaft protecting sleeve and a cooling jacket.
The packings can be adjusted and are suitable for higher pressures and circumferential speeds than lip seals. Different packing variants are used depending on whether the pump is run in suction head or suction lift operation, or whether it handles clean or contaminated fluid.
