Leakage - Twin Screw Pump
Leakage - Twin Screw Pump
(OP)
Dear all,
I install RUSCH twin screw pump, duty is Palm Oil Transfer Pumps, fitted with Mechanical Seal. The pump have product (palm oil) leakage on bearing housing, which I suspect cause by Mechanical Seal failure. However, the leakage stop if I run the pumps.
Should I check the Mechanical Seal? I think Mechanical Seal failure will lead to leakage when the pump run.
Advise, please.

However, if the leakage is not a regular occurrence, you may need to have the seal changed.
