Mechanical sealings fit with the needs of all industrial activities such as chemistry,

petrochemical industry, petroleum industry, paper industry, processing

industries, food industries, agrifood industry, textile industry, pharmaceutics...

Mechanical seal is accordingly an essential part of all rotating machinery such as

pumps, compressors, mixers, gasturbine, centrifuges, clarifiers, refiners, reactors...

However, performances given by manufacturers of mechanical seals can be affected

by number of external causes and particularly lacks of assembly, defects in lining-up

the line-shafting...

Consequently, association of manufacturers of mechanical seals belonging to

Artema, in business partnership with the Cetim, published this definite and didactic

guide, which aim is to actually help users and maintenance services, for a successful

assembly and a better performance of their installations.
