BT-PN

Features

  • Rubber bellows mechanical seals
  • Unbalanced
  • Single spring
  • Independent of direction of rotation

Advantages

The BT-PN is a large series mechanical seal with a simple yet effective design that is easy to assemble. The special spring arrangement allows a short axial installation length. This advantage is combined with an increased working pressure capability of up to 12 bar (174 PSI). The spring is free from torque transmission.

Operating range

Shaft diameter:
d1* = 8 … 40 mm (0.31" … 1.57")
Pressure: p1** = 12 bar (174 PSI),
vacuum … 0.5 bar (7.45 PSI)
Temperature:
t** = -20 °C … +120 °C (-4 °F … +248 °F)
Sliding velocity: vg = 10 m/s (33 ft/s)

Operating limits depend on p・vg factor

* Other diameters upon request
** Dependent on medium, size and material

Materials

Seal face:
Carbon graphite antimony impregnated (A),
Carbon graphite resin impregnated (B), Silicon carbide (Q1, Q6)
Seat:
Aluminium oxide (V), Steatite (X), Silicon carbide (Q1, Q6, Q7)
Elastomers:
NBR (P), FKM (V), EPDM (E)
Metal parts: CrNi steel 1.4301 (F), CrNiMo steel 1.4401 (G)

Product variants

BT-PNL

The small outer diameter of the BT-PNL allows installation in small seal chambers. Easy to assemble, the BT-PNL guarantees a long service life due to good product turbulence and the torque transmitted by the rubber bellows.

BT-PN and PNL double seal
(back-to-back arrangement)


Both types of seal can also be used as a multiple seal in back-to-back arrangement. This is advisable when the product media cannot ensure lubrication or the solids content is too high (oil chamber). Installation proposals can be supplied upon request. In this configuration, the operating pressure (product side seal) must be limited to max. 2 bar (29 PSI).
