GW HOM2 for Alfa Laval Contherm® Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers

Model: GW HOM2

Imperial Standard Seal Sizes: 38.1mm (1.5") & 50.8mm (2.0")

Features:

  • For high-viscosity fluids, crystallization, and abrasive particles
  • Enhanced wear resistance in dynamic applications.
  • Ideal for hygienic and chemically aggressive environments.
  • Compatible with food-grade media, steam, and CIP fluids.
  • Simplifies installation and reduces downtime.
  • Bi-Directional Operation

    This mechanical seal is optimized for demanding thermal processing applications. It is particularly suited for:

       •  Food & Dairy Production: High-viscosity products (e.g., sauces, dairy concentrates).
       •  Pharmaceutical & Cosmetic Manufacturing: Processes involving crystallization or particle suspension.
       •  Chemical Processing: Heat transfer fluids and aggressive media.
       •  Sanitary Systems: CIP/SIP-compatible environments.


    DETAILS & SPECIFICATIONS

    Product Description

    +
    The GW HOM2 is a high-performance OEM mechanical seal designed specifically for Alfa Laval Contherm® scraped surface heat exchangers. These systems handle viscous, abrasive, and crystallizing media, requiring seals that maintain integrity under mechanical scraping forces and thermal cycling. The seal incorporates premium materials like Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Tungsten Carbide (TC), which provide exceptional hardness and wear resistance, critical for prolonged service life in continuous operation.

    The cartridge design ensures precise alignment and easy installation, while the balanced mechanical structure compensates for shaft deflection and vibration. This reliability is essential in preventing product contamination and minimizing unplanned downtime in 24/7 production environments.
