FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How do HydroMax seals support compliance with API682 and other industry standards?

Our cartridge seals are engineered in full compliance with API682 for safety, reliability, and standardized installation in critical fluid-handling systems.

Which seal models are best suited for slurry, abrasive, or solids-laden media?

The SPS-610 and SPS-625 double cartridge seals are specifically designed for slurry applications, featuring vortex breakers and wear-resistant components

What is the maximum operating pressure, temperature, and shaft speed your seals can handle?

Depending on the model, seals can operate at up to 40 barg, 350°C, and shaft speeds of 20–25 m/s

Can HydroMax seals be integrated with existing seal support systems?

Yes. Our designs are fully compatible with API piping plans (32, 52, 53, 62), making them straightforward to integrate into existing pumping systems.

What’s the main advantage of choosing a cartridge seal over a component seal?

Cartridge seals are pre-assembled and factory-tested, reducing installation errors and downtime, whereas component seals provide flexibility and cost efficiency for OEM applications.

Do you provide material options for specific chemical or high-temperature services?

Yes. We offer a wide range of seal face combinations (Carbon, SiC, Tungsten Carbide, Antimony Carbon) and elastomers (Viton, Aflas, Kalrez) to match process conditions.

How can HydroMax seals improve equipment uptime and reduce lifecycle costs?

Our cartridge designs minimize human error during installation, extend service intervals, and reduce the need for unplanned maintenance.

Do you offer engineering support for seal selection and system design?

Yes. Our technical team provides application analysis, seal selection assistance, and compatibility checks to ensure the right seal is specified for each project.

What industries benefit most from HydroMax seals?

Key industries include oil & gas, mining, pulp & paper, chemical processing, power generation, and water & wastewater treatment, where uptime and reliability are mission-critical.

Does HydroMax offer refurbishment and aftermarket services for seals in operation?
