PULP AND PAPER SEALING PRODUCTS

Overview

In the pulp and paper industry, production efficiency and equipment reliability are critical to controlling costs and saving energy.

John Crane meets these demands with advanced pulp and paper sealing technology and comprehensive seal support systems designed specifically for the sector’s challenges.

We have decades of industry expertise with high-quality, proven designs to deliver engineered mechanical seals and seal support systems that reduce emissions, endure high temperatures and minimise water use.

Our solutions also include seal water controls, filters and power transmission couplings, all tailored to meet the unique requirements of pumps and other rotating equipment.

With over 200 service centres worldwide, John Crane provides rapid support and expert repairs to:

• Enhance operational reliability
• Increase equipment uptime
• Reduce maintenance needs
• Lower seal water consumption.

Cost-saving technology

The John Crane product line specific to pulp and paper includes the SmartFlow intelligent seal support system, a revolutionary control system that reduces the amount of water used to lubricate seal faces.

By limiting water consumption, pulp and paper processing companies not only save on their water bills, they can also cut any costs associated with filtration and treatment processes — resulting in significant cost savings overall.

We also offer modular seals — such as our Type 5600 series and heavy duty SB Series — that are standardised for use across the entire paper mill, and split seals (37FS) that allow for easy replacement without having to dismantle large equipment such as pulpers, agitators and fan pumps.
