Here Heinz Bloch shows us a comparison of MTBF only of Mechanical Seals, for two similar Plants, one with conventional lubrication and another with Oil Mist lubrication.
But how is it possible that the application of oil mist produces benefits in reducing mechanical seal failures, if they are not exposed to oil mist lubrication? In our Company we have many experiences of introducing mist lubrication, and receiving the same feedback from the client, indicating that they do not have problems with bearings, but they do have problems with mechanical seals.
In this video fragment we will only mention that both the mechanical seal and the bearings are mounted on the same shaft; and that any improvement that we can apply to the bearing will influence the mechanical seal.
In a future video, we will explain this topic in more detail.
