The MECO EA Type-2 seal model is ideal for large solvent extractors, pressurized conveyors, holding tanks or similar rotating equipment. Fitment for some blenders, dryers & sigma mixers is also possible. Common industries that use the seal are plastics, oilseed processors, chemicals, carbon anodes, metals, pharmaceuticals and food processors. The EA Type-2 seal model is typically used on horizontal, inclined or vertical shafts and configured for a fully-split installation. They are frequently used on rotating shafts where an inert gas barrier in the seal chamber is beneficial. The seal is appropriate for vacuum service and steady-state applications with infrequent thermal expansion or pressure changes. The seal is adjustable without having to empty the process material. For applications with frequent thermal cycles, pressure cycles and/or aggressive chemicals, the MECO Model EP Type 3 seal is a better match.
