DSS Sealing System
DSS Bushings are hinged to install without dismantling the pump
An alternative to machining costly bushings is to utilize Slade”s DSS Sealing System. No machining, no dismantling of the pump. Achieve leak-free, flush-free service. It comes fully unitized, ready to install, and we”ll inform you of the gland compression required. If you follow Slade”s installation instructions, you eliminate fear of over-tightening.Contact Slade for information on the DSS bushings.
Installation
- Check clearances and dimensions
- Best to use no more than 5 sealing rings in stuffing box (use Slade”s Enviro-Foil Spacer Bushings to reduce rings)
- Cut sealing rings on the bias (45° angle), stagger joints
- Compress each sealing ring 25%-30% (use packing compressors as needed). Do not compress spacer bushings.
- Loosen gland to allow it to relax
- Snug the gland bolts
Advantages
Minimizes or Virtually Eliminates Leakage
Due to its patented construction of natural, expanded graphite yarns, Slade 3300G turns the stuffing box into a heat sink, conducting heat away from shaft, in many applications, eliminating expensive leakage previously needed to cool the stuffing box.
Can Be Operated Flush-Free in Most Applications
Slade 3300G conducts heat away from the shaft/sleeve, in most cases making flush unnecessary. If media has particulate contamination, a very mild flush should be all that is required.
No flush-water translates into:
- Exceptional savings, typically 1/2 cent per gallon, or $13,000 annually (U.S.) (based on 5 GPM flush system)
- No fear of flush-water system becoming plugged or experiencing loss of pressure
Reduces Inventory and Cost
- By eliminating die-formed rings (cut-rings work fine)
- Handles most medias, 1-14 pH, eliminating many styles of packing
- In many applications, no need to remove old packing, just add a ring
- Lasts 4 to 6 times longer than traditional pump packings
Worn Shafts and Sleeves Easily Sealed
Conforms to the geometry of the stuffing box and shaft. Seals most worn sleeves.
