Splitex® - the fully split semi-cartridge seal - Reduced repair and downtime: 2 x 2 pre-assembled parts, which speed up and simplify installation because the pump does not have to be disassembled. - Long service life: Precise pre-alignment because of pre-assembled segments. Stationary springs which are protected from the product prevent clogging. - Greater flexibility during installation: No modification necessary because the seal is located outside of the stuffing box. - Dependable operation: Mechanical decoupling of clamping ring (torque transmission) avoids deformation or torsional stress at the seat. - Simply monitoring of the seal during operation because of mechanical wear indicator on the seal face. - Low leakage: Elimination of secondary seals eliminates leakage paths between split components. - High tolerance to shaft deflections ensured by stationary design and elastic seat mounting (gasket).
- Shaft protection: Uniform torque transmission via clamping ring prevents damage caused by set screws.

The Splitex® is made up of 2 x 2 pre-assembled halves which are simply placed around the shaft and screwed into place without the need to disassemble the pump. The seal has the same features as a non-split cartridge seal: balanced, stationary design, precision seal pre-adjustment, and no contact between the springs and the product. No modification to the seal housing is needed, because the Splitex® is mounted fully on the outside. The seal is externally pressurized and comes with integrated flushing connections as a standard feature.
