Online dispersing equipment (e.g., online dispersers, high-shear dispersers, etc.) is widely used in industrial production for processes such as mixing, emulsification and homogenization. Common issues generally relate to equipment operation, process performance or maintenance.
Seal Leakage
Phenomenon:Liquid or gas leakage at the shaft seal.
Possible Causes:
· Worn mechanical seal or improper installation
· Operating pressure or temperature exceeding the seal’s allowable range
· Incompatibility between seal material and process material (causing corrosion or swelling)
Solutions:
· Replace the seal and ensure correct installation
· Adjust process parameters (e.g., reduce pressure or temperature)
· Adopt corrosion-resistant seal materials (such as fluororubber and PTFE)
