USA | Blackmer, a brand of PSG, a Dover company, and a global leader in rotating pumps and reciprocating compressor technologies, launched a behind-the-rotor seal option for its Blackmer G Series Internal Gear Pumps.
Engineered for serviceability and longevity, the behind-the-rotor seal option can prevent process fluids and abrasive materials from contacting the drive components of the G Series, resulting in reduced wear, simplified maintenance and increased uptime for operators.
This seal design can also deliver improved protection and performance when handling abrasive materials across a wide range of applications.
“The introduction of the behind-the-rotor seal underscores our ongoing commitment to providing reliable pump technology and enhances the trusted performance of the G Series,” said Joe Parzych, Product Manager of Blackmer Gear.
“By protecting critical internal components, this new seal option helps customers minimise downtime and reduce total cost of ownership.”
The behind-the-rotor seal option includes the following key features:
- Available in Type 1 or Type 8 seal configurations for greater flexibility
- Supports the use of a lower-cost bronze bushing when pumping abrasive materials
- Ideal for industries handling starches, inks, pulp, resins and adhesives
- Initially available on G3-2 through G3-69 cast iron models, with additional materials planned for future release
Parzych added that adding the behind-the-rotor seal option further expands the versatility and dependability of their G Series Pumps.
“It’s a simple, high-impact solution for customers who want to maximise both the performance and longevity of their internal gear pumps.”
