AST RESERVOIR FOR DUAL MECHANICAL SEALS
High Performance & Exceptional Value
The AST reservior supplies a clean buffer/barrier liquid to a dual mechanical seal without an expensive piping system. Since the AST80 dual cartridge seal has a double balanced inboard seal, the reservoir may be pressurized for tandem seal service. Reservoirs can extend the life of dual seals by furnishing a clean barrier liquid which lubricates and cools the seal faces.
