John Crane Type 5625 and 5625P Dual Metal Bellows Cartridge Seal Assembly and Installation Instructions

If the seal is to be used for an application other than that originally intended or outside the recommended performance limits, John Crane must be contacted before its installation and use. Any warranty may be affected by improper handling, installation, or use of this seal. Contact the Company for information as to exclusive product warranty and limitations of liability. If questions or problems arise, contact your local John Crane Sales/Service Engineer or the original equipment manufacturer, as appropriate. ATTENTION John Crane mechanical seals are precision products and must be handled appropriately. Take particular care to avoid damage to lapped sealing faces and to flexible sealing rings. Do not excessively compress the seal before or during installation.

Safety Instructions
1. The following designations are used in the installation instructions to highlight instructions of particular importance. NOTE: ATTENTION Refers to special information on how to install or operate the seal most efficiently. Refers to special information or instructions directed towards the prevention of damage to the seal or its surroundings. Refers to mandatory instructions designed to prevent personal injury or extensive damage to the seal or its surroundings. 5. If the pumped fluid is hazardous or toxic, appropriate precautions must be taken to ensure that any seal leakage is adequately contained. Further information on sealing hazardous or toxic fluids should be obtained from John Crane prior to seal installation. 6. Fluorocarbon components should never be burned or incinerated as the fumes and residues are highly toxic. If fluorocarbons are accidentally heated above 400C/750F, they can decompose. Therefore, protective gloves should be worn as hydrofluoric acid may be present. 7. PTFE components should never be burned or incinerated as the fumes are highly toxic.

2. Installation, removal and maintenance of the seal must be carried out only by qualified personnel who have read and understood these installation instructions. 3. The seal is designed exclusively for sealing rotating shafts. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for use of the seal for purposes other than this. 4. The seal must only be used in technically perfect condition, and must be operated within the recommended performance limits in accordance with its designated use set out in these installation instructions.

Before Starting the Equipment


1. Check the pump at the coupling for proper alignment of the driver or motor. 2. Ensure that the gland plate nuts/bolts are securely tightened according to the pump manual instructions, and that all screws are securely fastened. 3. Complete the assembly of the pump, and turn the shaft (by hand if possible) to ensure free rotation. 4. Consult all available equipment operating instructions to check for correctness of all piping and connections, particularly regarding seal recirculation/flush, heating or cooling requirements, and services external to the seal. ATTENTION This mechanical seal is designed to operate in a liquid so the heat energy it creates is adequately removed. Therefore, the following check should be carried out not only after seal installation, but also after any period of equipment inactivity. 5. Check that the seal chamber fluid lines are open and free of any obstruction, and ensure that the seal chamber is properly vented and filled with liquid - refer to the pump instruction manual.

ATTENTION

Dry-running - often indicated by a squealing noise from the seal area - will cause overheating and scoring or other damage to the sealing surfaces, resulting in excessive leakage or a much shortened seal life. Before start-up, ensure that all personnel and assembly equipment have been moved to a safe distance so there is no contact with rotating parts on the pump, seal, coupling, or motor. Seal installation should be handled only by qualified personnel. If questions arise, contact the local John Crane Sales/Service Engineer. Improper use and/or installation of this product could result in injury to the person and/or harmful emissions to the environment, and may affect any warranty on the product. Please contact the company for information as to exclusive product warranty and limitations of liability.

Decommissioning the Equipment


1. Ensure that the equipment is electrically isolated.

Maintenance
No maintenance of a seal is possible while installed. Therefore, it is recommended that a spare seal unit be held in stock to allow immediate replacement of a removed seal. It is recommended that used seals are returned to a John Crane Seal Rebuilding Center, as rebuilding to as-new specifications must be carried out by qualified personnel.

If the equipment has been used on toxic or hazardous fluids, ensure that the equipment is correctly decontaminated and made safe prior to commencing work. Remember fluid is often trapped during draining and may exist outside the seal. The equipment instruction manual should be consulted to check for any special precautions.

2. Ensure that the equipment is isolated by the appropriate valves. Check that the fluid is drained and pressure is fully released.

It is the responsibility of the equipment user to ensure that any parts being sent to a third party have appropriate safe handling instructions externally attached to the package.

Quality Assurance
This seal has been assembled in accordance with John Crane Quality Assurance Standards and with proper maintenance and use will give safe and reliable operation to the maximum recommended performance as shown in any relevant approved John Crane publication.
