2. API Standard 682 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_Standard_682

   API Standard 682, titled "Pumps - Shaft Sealing Systems for Centrifugal and Rotary Pumps," is the American Petroleum Institute standard for end-face mechanical seals. [1] The purpose of API 682 is to assist in the selection and operation of end face mechanical seals in centrifugal pumps. It is based on the combined knowledge and experience of ...

3. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

   In mechanical engineering, an end-face mechanical seal (often shortened to mechanical seal) is a type of seal used in rotating equipment, such as pumps, mixers, blowers, and compressors. When a pump operates, the liquid could leak out of the pump between the rotating shaft and the stationary pump casing. Since the shaft rotates, preventing this ...

4. Seal (mechanical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_(mechanical)

   Inflatable seal Seals that inflate and deflate in three basic directions of operation: the axial direction, the radial-in direction, and the radial-out direction. Each of these inflation directions has their own set of performance parameters for measurements such as the height of inflation and the center-line bend radius that the seal can ...

5. Labyrinth seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labyrinth_seal

   Labyrinth seals are also found on pistons, which use them to store oil and seal against high pressure during compression and power strokes, as well as on non-rotating shafts. In these applications, it is the long and difficult path and the formation of controlled fluid vortices plus some limited contact-sealing action that creates the seal.

7. Face seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_seal

   In mechanical engineering, a face seal is a seal in which the sealing surfaces are normal to the axis of the seal. Face seals are typically used in static applications and are used to prevent leakage in the radial direction with respect to the axis of the seal. [1] Face seals are often located in a groove or cavity on a flange. Face seals are a ...
