Succes Story

Chesterton Split Seal

Do you know that CHESTERTON SPLIT MECHANICAL SEAL can be used at difficult applications, such as on Turbines ? We have successfully installed big diameter Split Mechanical Seals model 442, at a Hydroelectric Power Plant in North Sulawesi.

Their previous Sealing Problem with OEM Seal was :

  • High Rate of Leakage

  • Dirty area caused by mud from river water

  • Difficult maintenance due to the size and construction of the turbines

The problem was solved with CHESTERTON split mechanical seal, the turbines have been running without trouble since March 2017 !!
