GW 293 Component Seal for Alfa Laval C-Series Centrifugal Pumps
This mechanical seal provides reliable performance in demanding sanitary and industrial processing applications. It is particularly well-suited for:
• Dairy, food, and beverage processing
• Pharmaceutical and cosmetic manufacturing
• Chemical transfer applications
• CIP (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Steam-in-Place) systems
Product Detail
+
The GW 293 is a high-performance OEM mechanical seal designed specifically for Alfa Laval® C-series centrifugal pumps. Its engineering incorporates premium materials such as sintered silicon carbide (SiC) and fine-grained tungsten carbide (TC) sealing faces, which provide exceptional resistance to mechanical wear, chemical corrosion and thermal shock in continuous operation. The precisely calibrated single spring mechanism maintains optimal face pressure throughout the seal's service life, preventing leakage during pressure fluctuations and equipment vibration.
The seal's balanced design ensures stable performance across variable pressure and temperature conditions commonly encountered in sanitary processing. This robust construction minimizes maintenance interruptions and enhances operational efficiency in demanding 24/7 production environments. The GW 293 is particularly well-suited for applications requiring frequent sterilization cycles and resistance to aggressive cleaning agents, providing reliable sealing performance in high-purity processing of dairy, pharmaceutical, and food products where hygiene and product integrity are critical.
