Uniseal Installation
Note: No seal setting measurements
are needed to install the seal. Instructions
are for end-suction back pull-out pumps. Modification of these procedures may be
required for other style pumps. Consult Flowserve for installation support.
2.1 Lubricate the shaft or pump sleeve lightly with silicone lubricant unless
otherwise specified.
2.2 Tighten the setting device cap screws to ensure they are tight before
installation.
2.3 Slide the Uniseal cartridge onto the shaft or pump sleeve with the setting
devices toward the bearing housing. See Figure 2.
2.4 Install the seal chamber and bolt it in place on the bearing frame.
See Figure 3.
2.5 Position the Uniseal with the gland tight against the seal chamber.
