Single seal
Available for standard (Cartex-ASPN) and big bore (Cartex-ABPN) seal chambers
Cartridge
Balanced
Independent of direction of rotation
Single seals with flush (-ASPN, -ABPN) and with quench combined with lip seal (-ASQN, -ABQN) or throttle ring (-ASTN, -ABTN)
Advantages
Ideal for use in ANSI process pumps
Universal applicable for packings conversions, retrofits or original equipment
Seal for standardizations
No dimensional modification of the seal chamber necessary, small radial installation height
No damage of the shaft by dynamically loaded O-Ring
Extended service life
Installation faults are avoided, cost-effective
No damage caused by dirt entered during assembly
Straightforward and easy installation due to pre-assembled unit (reduced down-times)
