Sicelub Ibérico SL obtains Sustainability certification in Spain

Recently, our company in Spain, Sicelub Ibérico, obtained a Sustainability certification; being among the 15% best in Spain in this regard. The result indicated that we were in the 86th percentile, which indicates an excellent value.

We would like to thank Leila Martí, who led the audit and certification process.

At the Sicelub Lubritech Group, and as part of Reladyne, we believe that Sustainability is a very important value to follow, since we are aware of the changes that occur in the world; and we do our part to reduce the amount of harmful waste, make efficient use of resources, and care for the Environment.

We also seek to improve our labor and human rights practices, along with Professional Ethics. You can see more information at: https://reladyne.com/es/company/sustainability-in-motion/

15 – Conclusions

With this post we will close the cycle.

Oil Mist lubrication has been operating since 1967 in the Oil & Gas Industry with excellent results worldwide. With more than 150,000 mist lubricated pumps since then, the installed base and references are extremely large, both in the United States, Latin America, the Middle East and Europe.

If you have an MTBF of less than 6 years in any of your Plants, performing a retrofit to install oil mist lubrication is without a doubt the best option that exists to improve. The project to improve lubrication will not interfere with the normal operation of the plant, and a Plant Shutdown is not required to apply the technology.

We wanted to honor the memory of Heinz Bloch with these posts and provide information so that you know firsthand the benefits of applying this technology.

14 – Reducing Mechanical Seal Failures.

We continue to delve into the benefits of oil mist lubrication in improving the reliability of mechanical seals.

Here Heinz Bloch explains that the root cause of mechanical seal failure is sometimes misdiagnosed. When a failure is verified in a centrifugal pump and it is inspected and the mechanical seal is found to be damaged, it is determined that the root cause has been the mechanical seal; when sometimes, the true root cause has been poor lubrication in bearings, which manifested itself with a break in the mechanical seal, as this element is a kind of fuse.

It is enough to observe the recommendation of API 751 that deals with Safe Operation in Alkylation Plants; where it is recommended to use oil mist lubrication to reduce the risks of having mechanical seal failures, which cause dangerous emissions to the environment.

We can then conclude with these last two posts, that the application of oil mist lubrication will achieve a benefit in terms of reducing failures originally attributed to mechanical seals.
