New Seals Provide In-Field Scalability for a Wide Range of Sealing Applications

A.W. Chesterton Company launches new single and double cartridge seals built on

its new AXIUS(TM) modular seal platform. These modular seals enable customers

to make quick seal face and feature changes around a standard seal base to meet

varying applications quickly and economically.

The first mechanical seals offered on the AXIUS platform are:

- Chesterton 1810 Heavy Duty Modular Single Cartridge Seal – A reliable,

plant-wide seal that has performance and reliability enhancing add-on

capabilities. The 1810 has environmental control options such as multi-port

flushing and quench & drain.

- Chesterton 2810 Heavy Duty Modular Double Cartridge Seal – The 2810 delivers

advanced emissions control and safety. It features a "Diffuser Sleeve," an

optimized barrier-buffer channel which improves fluid flow to and from the

seal's support system and enhances temperature regulation to extend seal

face life. This feature was developed with extensive research using state of

art technologies including CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and FEA

(Finite Element Analysis)

"These modular seals represent a whole new level of flexibility for customers

to act quickly in agile and fast-changing environments," says Thiru

Veeraraghavan, Vice President of Engineering and Innovation. "They are suited

for plant-wide use and have the flexibility to be configured for increasingly

demanding conditions providing greater reliability and value to all seal

users."

Serving the industrial world for over 135 years, the A.W. Chesterton Company

has developed a number of game-changing sealing solutions, including the first

commercial split seal. The 1810 and 2810 are the first seals to be offered on

the new AXIUS modular platform, with more capabilities and other seals to be

offered in the near future.
