R6 Exact-a-chem

r6

The Exact-A-Chem seal is an outside mounted rotary seal designed to seal corrosive fluids. No metal parts of the R6 are in direct contact with the pumped fluid.

Features and Benefits
  • Low cost replacement seals made from expensive exotic materials.
  • The Exact-A-Chem seal is designed for use in corrosive fluids which readily attack the metal parts of conventional seals. With the Exact-A-Chem no metal parts are in contact with the fluid being pumped.
  • Easy installation – Exact-A-Chem comes pre-assembled: simply slide on until faces mate, tighten set screws and remove clips.
  • Faces can be cleaned and reset right on shaft, as seal is external to the stuffing box.
  • The Exact-A-Chem is internally balanced eliminating the requirements for expensive sleeve or shaft steps.
  • A visual check on wear/misalignment can be made, helping to eliminate unscheduled maintenance shutdowns.
  • Located closer to support bearing – less whip.
  • The Exact-A-Chem can be installed on pumps where the stuffing box is too shallow to accept a conventional internal seal.
