4-Part Mechanical Seals Webinar Series
Take part in this 4-part mechanical seals webinar series led by some of the top experts in the mechanical seal industry. Participants of the series will learn about mechanical seal types and operating principles in the first session (March 29). Session 2 will cover mechanical seal construction and design (April 12) while Session 3 will cover installation, connections, and commissioning (April 26). Seal environment and failure analysis will be the topic in Session 4 (May 11).
Registration is only $295!

Session 1: Types & Operating Principles ($100.00)
March 29, 2012
1:00 - 2:00pm ET
Presenter: Eric Vanhie, EagleBurgmann
Session 1 explains how a mechanical seal works and gives an overview of the most common seal types. The objectives are to give the participant a good understanding of how leakage, friction and wear of the materials interact and why many different seal types are used in pumps, agitators and compressors. This session will last approximately 1 hour, including Q&A.

Session 2: Construction & Design ($100.00)
April 12, 2012
1:00 - 2:00pm ET
Presenter: Mike Huebner, Flowserve
Session 2 explains different design features used in common seals. Participants will learn the strengths and weaknesses of various design options and understand the impact of design features on seal performance. Seal faces, springs, and seal glands will be discussed along with the differences in various seal chamber designs for common pumps.

Session 3: Installation, Connections, & Commissioning ($100.00)
April 26, 2012
1:00 - 2:00pm ET
Presenter: Presenter: Eric Boyce, John Crane
A mechanical seal, although designed for various applications at times, requires equipment prepared so that the life cycle is maximized. Session 3 will examine seal support systems that further promote longer seal life. Discussions include:
- General knowledge of mechanical seals used in rotary equipment.
- Basic preparation and standards as well as support system piping plans promoting longer seal life.
- What basic tolerances are recommended for seal installations?
- What benefit is the seal drawing to the overall installation
- Does the seal flush piping plan type really influence longer life?
- What is the difference between a seal support system for a secondary containment seal and a non-contacting seal

Session 4: Seal Environment & Failure Analysis ($100.00)
May 11, 2012
1:00 - 2:00pm ET
Presenter: Henri Azibert, A.W. Chesterton Company
Section 4 will cover Seal Environment and Failure Analysis. A seal is considered to have failed when leakage exceeds environmental or plant-site operating limits. The failure may occur before or after the seal has achieved its design life expectancy. Understanding the mode of seal failure can lead to extending the life of rotary equipment by improving seal design and material selection, installation and operating procedures, and environmental controls.
