Let us help you find the right product from this series
Product features
- Bi-directional flow-inducing or pumping feature → Supports circulation regardless of shaft rotation direction where specified
- Self-aligning stationary seal-face design → Helps reduce damaging contact during start-up and equipment movement
- Hydraulically balanced seal faces → Reduces seal-face loading and supports stable operation across process changes
- ATEX Category 2 (Zone 1/21) and Category 3 (Zone 2/22) versions are specified by AESSEAL → Supports selection for classified areas when the complete application is verified
- Factory-assembled cartridge construction → Reduces the need to set spring compression during installation and helps protect seal faces during fitting
- Flush, quench or drain connections provided by the seal design → Gives maintenance teams defined points for environmental control around the seal
- Series-specific selection against equipment data → Helps avoid specifying a seal that does not match shaft, housing or process conditions
AESSEAL FIDC is specified for chemical process duties where corrosion resistance and controlled leakage are important selection criteria. It is intended for engineers and maintenance teams selecting a sealing solution around the actual equipment and process duty, where leakage control, service access and unplanned downtime need to be considered together. AESSEAL uses cartridge construction to supply the sealing assembly as a pre-set unit; the manufacturer states that this reduces installation-setting work and protects the seal faces during fitting. Verified series-specific points include Bi-directional flow-inducing or pumping feature; Self-aligning stationary seal-face design; Hydraulically balanced seal faces; ATEX Category 2 (Zone 1/21) and Category 3 (Zone 2/22) versions are specified by AESSEAL. For model selection, verify shaft and housing dimensions, pressure, temperature, speed, process medium, solids content where relevant, material compatibility and the required support-system arrangement. Only values explicitly stated for the selected AESSEAL configuration should be used as design limits. Before replacement or retrofit, identify the installed seal or support-system code and record the mating equipment data rather than assuming family-wide interchangeability. This gives maintenance and procurement teams a traceable basis for comparing the selected AESSEAL variant with the installed configuration and planning the intervention. Correct selection and a serviceable arrangement can reduce avoidable installation work and help maintenance teams plan spares and interventions more predictably. AxFlow can support product selection, application review and service/spare-parts planning; contact AxFlow to confirm the exact configuration and availability.
