AES Mixer Seals (AES Mix Master 1)

The CSWIB™ (Mixmaster I) is a single cartridge mechanical seal, with balanced seal faces and an integral (steady) bearing.

Features: Designed for agitators and mixers, fitted with an integral bearing to stabilize shaft and seal faces. Ideal for use on mixers with long, overhanging shafts, Quench and drain ports can provide cooling or heating to maximize seal life in arduous applications

AES Mixer Seals (AES Mix Master 2)

The DSWIB™ (Mixmaster II) is a double mixer seal with integral bearing and concentric face design to reduce the seal’s overall length.

The seal is offered with the following features: Designed for agitators and mixers, fitted with an integral bearing to stabilize shaft and seal faces. Ideal for use on mixers with long, overhanging shafts, Quench and drain ports can provide cooling or heating to maximize seal life in arduous applications.

AES Mixer Seals (AES SCMS)

The SCMS™ Mixer seal is specifically designed for use on a broad range of mixers, agitators and reactor applications. It is suitable for side entry (flooded) or top entry (running in vapor) mounting. The modular SCMS™ design facilitates both wet and dry running versions.

AES Packing Product Range

AESSEAL® offers a selected range of gland packing that have been specifically designed and manufactured to reduce plant operational maintenance costs. The cost of packing is low when compared to the cost of down time of a plant incorporating machinery wear, product loss, gland maintenance and labour.

Therefore, it is of the utmost importance to select the highest quality modern fiber packing in an inter-braided construction and optimized profiles to provide the most resilient, long-lasting packing sealing solution.

AES Single Seals (AES CURC)

The AESSEAL CURC™, CRCO™ and CURE™ mechanical seals are part of a range of seals specifically designed to optimize the use of Silicon Carbide. All these seals incorporate improved third generation self aligning technology. The design objective was to minimize metal to Silicon Carbide impact, particularly on start–up.

In some seal designs, impact between metal anti–rotation pins and Silicon Carbide can be sufficiently severe to induce stress cracking in the Silicon Carbide. Silicon Carbide has many advantages when used in mechanical seals. The material has superior chemical resistance, hardness and heat dissipation properties compared to practically any other material used as a mechanical seal face. Silicon Carbide is, however, brittle by nature, so the design of the self–aligning stationary in the CURC™ range of mechanical seals seeks to minimize this metal to Silicon impact on start–up.

AES Single Seals (AES SCUSI)

A short externally mounted cartridge seal, with flush ports and self-aligning faces. With the aid of Finite Element Analysis (FEA), a range of seals were designed to optimize the use of Silicon Carbide. This third generation seal incorporates an improved self-aligning concept and prevents shock damage to Silicon Carbide on start-up, which is the most significant reason for Silicon Carbide damage in other seal designs.

In addition, the spring loaded rotary centrifuges solids away from the seal face and resists clogging, increasing the range of general service applications to include slurries and some abrasives. Faces remain flat, square to the shaft and suspended solids are prevented from crossing the flat seal faces.

AES Single Seals (AES SMSS)

The AESSEAL® range of single cartridge mechanical seals has been specifically designed to eliminate some of the main causes of premature mechanical seal failure.

AES Single Seals (AES SMSS23)

A single cartridge stationary seal with integral Plan 23. Coupled with a Heli coil cooler. The seal provides the most efficient sealing solution for this piping arrangement. Extremely effective Plan 23 with bi-directional integral pumping ring, ideal for boiler feed and boiler circulation duties.

Integral inboard restriction bush configuration, adapted to suit the equipment, total solution available including heat exchanger. Hydraulically balanced seal face technology for reduced power consumption, non-shaft-fretting sleeve elastomer and positive set screw drive. Multiple spring seal-face loading and stationary design suitable for high speed applications.

Sizes available on request. Please contact AESSEAL®

AES Split Seals (AES ISOS)

The ISOS™ (inflatable shut-off seal) is fitted between the pump and a radially-divided seal, to form a separate seal when required, allowing the quick and easy removal of the mechanical seal. The ISOS™ works around the principal of surrounding the shaft with an inflatable elastomeric bladder.

Under normal operating conditions, when the mechanical seal is working, the bladder remains unpressurized. When the mechanical seal fails or needs removing, the bladder can be inflated, thereby mechanically sealing the shaft. The seal can then be easily removed without draining or isolating the equipment.

AES Split Seals (AES RDXS)

The RDSX™ seal eliminates the need to remove or strip equipment for seal replacement. The self aligning rotary makes the RDSX™ one of the easiest and quickest to install split seals on the market today.

RDSX™ Features: Self-aligning stationary and rotary seal faces. Installation wear indicator, hydraulically balanced seal-faces and patented assembled spring retainer, unique ‘O’ring design and minimum parts.

The RDSX™ has been developed after extensive research and customer feedback to increase the ease of fitting the seal correctly – first time. A comprehensive product development and dynamic testing process makes the RDSX™ the ideal product to offer mechanical seal benefits over traditional packing solutions without increasing maintenance costs or downtime.

AESSEAL Gas Seals (AES CAPI 74)

The advantages of sealing pumps with dual pressurized dry gas seals are becoming widely recognized throughout industry.

AESSEAL® has developed a range of pump dry gas seals to suit every application. The CAPI-74™ Face to Face configuration is a stationary design, bi-directional, balanced, internally-mounted and cartridge design pusher seal with multiple springs. It is a non-contacting dual seal primarily designed for pumps meeting ANSI/ API standard 682 that can provide zero emissions in service.

AESSEAL Gas Seals (AES CCS)

The CCS™ is a tandem cartridge seal where the inboard seal is designed to seal up to 82 bar (1200 psi), and an outboard seal that acts as a low pressure tandem seal. The outboard seal is capable of full pressure containment in the event of full seal failure.

Features: Ideally suited for retrofitting wet compressor seals and bushings or as a replacement for existing Dry Gas seals, supplied in 410 stainless steel as standard with exotic alloy options on request and available with Silicon Carbide seats as standard. Tungsten Carbide and Silicon Nitride seats available on request. Mating faces available in Carbon and synthetic diamond coated Silicon Carbide, ‘O’ ring and spring energized polymer versions available.

Designs available in single, double, tandem or tandem with intermediate labyrinth. For increased integrity, fully shrouded seats adopted as standard and Bi-directional seal designs available.

AESSEAL Seal Support Systems (AES FDU)

The AESSEAL® FDU (Fluid Distribution Unit) is an efficient and high performance forced circulation PUMPPAC™ system. The product was developed to meet the requirements of the API Plan 54 piping plan, which maximizes heat dump potential for more arduous pump applications. The FDU is adaptable to a wide range of industry applications with the fitting of additional equipment (optional: accumulator, level switch / transmitter and pressure switch/transmitter).

Please note that both oil and water can be used with the FDU.

AESSEAL Seal Support Systems (AES Flowtrue)

The AESSEAL® FLOWTRUE® is a robust and adjustable flow meter that controls the amount of water flowing to the mechanical seal for cooling purposes. The unique and advanced FLOWTRUE® design means that of all the flow meters available it is the least likely to clog. This is due to large internal clearances within the design.
