Medium of high temperature heavy oil pump has the following common characteristics from which you can see it is impossible to choose common mechanical seals :
High temperature: generally 340~400℃;
Medium viscosity is large: general kinematic viscosity at temperature is (12~180)×10-6m/s;
Medium has particles: such as catalyst, coke, sand and other impurities.
In the petrochemical industry,all companies now adopt welded metal bellow mechanical seals for high-temperature heavy oil pumps. DBM type, XL-604/606/609 type, YH-604/606/609 type and so on are in better use now. The bellows material adopts corrosion-resistant high-temperature alloys, stainless steel such as AM350, INCONEL718, Hastelloy B, C, etc.; some wave plates adopt a double-layer structure to increase bearing pressure from 2MPa to 5MPa, which effectively solves the elasticity loss problem of the bellows.
