Changing
the Face of Seals™
UNCD® Faces bring the tribological benefits of
diamond to mechanical seals used for rotary equipment, such as
pumps and mixers. UNCD Faces are processed using ADT’s patented
diamond technology and provide exceptional life and robustness
to mechanical pump seals.
Benefits
- Longer lasting seals in demanding applications.
- More resisitant to dry and poor lubricating environments.
- Enables the use of hard faces in applications pumping thermally
sensitive media.
- Reduced energy consumption.
- Suitable for a wide range of media.
UNCD Faces
- Test Results
UNCD Faces outperform SiC faces in extreme wear tests. After
thousands of hours of operation, UNCD Faces have consistently
outlasted SiC faces in poor lubricating conditions of 250-300
°F hot water. In head-to-head industrial tests, UNCD Faces
have shown negligible or minimal wear whereas SiC faces experienced
deep grooving resulting in pump leakage. UNCD Faces have also
been shown, when running against SiC, to have coefficients of
friction (CoF) of 0.02-0.04. These are well below the typical
values when running SiC in hard-on-hard applications. The reduced
friction during operation of UNCD Faces results in reduced seal
cavity temperatures when running in ANSI slurry pumping applications.
