4. Centrifugal Expeller & Stuffing Box (No Mechanical Seal)

Centrifugal Expeller, Expeller Ring, Shaft Sleeve & Stuffing Box
PULP CONDITION & CHALLENGE:

Lack of high-pressure gland seal water and bearing slurry contamination.

ENGINEERING SPECIFICATION:

Dry centrifugal expeller and braided PTFE/graphite stuffing box (we do not sell mechanical seals due to severe slurry abrasion and corrosion).

Hydrodynamic continuity: uniform air dispersion, agitation mechanisms, and pulp conditioners.
