1 Equipment Check
1.1 Follow plant safety regulations:
• lock out motor and valves.
• wear designated personal safety equipment.
• relieve any pressure in system.
• consult plant MSDS files for hazardous material regulations.
1.2 Disassemble equipment 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 worn shaft
or sleeve. Make sure the seal housing bore and face are clean and
free of burrs.
1.4 Check requirements for shaft, sleeve, and seal housing.
See Figure 1.
1.5 Check assembly drawing included with the seal for specific
seal design, materials of construction, dimensions, and piping
connections.
