Compact manifold for cooling and lubrication of the shaft seal on centrifugal pumps

Centrifugal pumps depend on cooling and lubrication to operate efficiently, reliably and with a long service life. Schubert & Salzer Control Systems has now developed an out-of-the-box solution for this specific application. The new complete system is not only more compact than the solutions commonly used in industry, but also significantly reduces installation and maintenance costs.

 

How does it work: When the pump is started, the pneumatic valve opens simultaneously, so that cooling and lubrication are ensured immediately. The liquid sensor integrated in the manifold permanently checks that coolant always flows when the pump is running. If there is no cooling the pump is switched off to prevent damage to the shaft seal and to prevent it from getting stuck.
