Reconditioning (repair)
In general for small shaft sizes a repair of a mechanical seal of the
eMG
series is not
recommendable due to lower costs. If there are any unclear points for a proper
disposal of the changed mechanical seal please contact EagleBurgmann.
If,
for compelling reasons
,
a reconditioning
has to be carried out
on site
(e.g. no.
spare seal on stock, long transport, problems with customs) the seal may be repaired
in a clean room by
trained
personnel of the user under the direction of
EagleBurgmann mechanics
.
Disassembly / removal
Stop the machine
as instructed, allow to cool, depressurise it and
ensure that pressure cannot build up again!
Work
on the M.S.
is only permitted
when the machine is at a
standstill
and
depressurised
.
Depressurise and shut off (or drain) the
supply
of the M.S.
There must be no product in the M.S.
if necessary drain the
machine and rinse it out!
Isolate the machine
to prevent it starting up unexpectedly!
Observe the safety notes
(safety data sheets)!
IMPORTANT!
When removing, please observe
by all means
:
current accident prevention regulations
regulations for handling hazardous substances
WARNING!
Seals that have been used with
hazardous substances
must be properly
cleaned
so that there is no possible
danger
to people or to the environment.
IMPORTANT!
The packaging used to transport the seal must
be
identified
with the relevant
hazard symbol
and
include
the
safety data sheet
for the product and/or supply medium.
The order of disassembly to remove the mechanical seal out of the machine depends
on the design of the machine and should be determined by the machine
manufacturer.
If the machine manufacturer specified auxiliaries (jigs and fixtures) they have to be
used in accordance with the specifications of the manufacturer.
Remove the mechanical seal in the reverse sequence as described for assembly
(set up).
