Optimizing Air Usage in AODD Pumps
The incorporation of an innovative air control spool into the design of the new ADS is what gives it the ability to arrest air loss at the conclusion of each pumping stroke, which helps make it up to 60 percent more efficient than other ADS technologies.
NEXT GENERATION ADS can reduce air consumption for improved efficiency and reduced operating costs.
Successful industrial operations measure success in many ways – such as operational equipment efficiency, productivity and safety, to name a few. Almost always, they can be grouped into one of three categories:
How Carbon Works in Mechanical Sealing
Effect of composition on physical, thermal and chemical properties
MECHANICAL FACE seals are a complex combination of materials and design that form a system whose prime objective is maintaining the integrity of the pumping system, keeping what is inside where it belongs and preventing contamination from the outside.
Hydro Feasibility Study in Tasmania Receives Funding
TWO FEASIBILITY studies into expanding two hydro-electric power stations in Tasmania, and exploring the potential to develop significant pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) have received $2.5 million in funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA).

Easy Way to Identify Mechanical Seals Provided as Free Download by Select Seals
ONE OF THE biggest challenges for customers wishing to replace a pump seal is correctly identifying which seal they actually need.
Cartridge Mechanical Seals Replace Gland Packing
Pump Changed From Gland Packing To Cartridge Mechanical Seal
MORE PICS of another Gold Coast City Council pump converted to cartridge mechanical seals.
Gland Packing vs Cartridge Mechanical Seal
An end face cartridge mechanical seal, also referred to as a mechanical face seal but typically simply as a mechanical seal, is a kind of seal made use of in rotating devices, such as pumps, mixers, blowers, and compressors. Earlier pump designs made use of mechanical packing (otherwise understood as Gland Packing) to seal the shaft.
Conversion to Cartridge Mechanical Seal
Pump Before Cartridge Mechanical Seal Installed
GOLD COAST City Council chose Anthony Butler of Select Seals to convert all their pumps from using gland packing to now run using cartridge mechanical seals.
This Warman Pump has now been running more efficiently and reliably for 4 years.
Mechanical Seal Selection Basics Guide
ITT Lowara SV Series Mechanical Seal
ONE OF the most important things to remember about mechanical seals is that they are purchased by two different types of customer.
While they both share a desire to ensure that the seal “works”, the two groups tend to have different priorities when selecting a seal.
