Seal Kit Xylem-Bell & Gossett 186860

The Xylem-Bell & Gossett 186860 is a seal kit designed for use in various Xylem-Bell & Gossett pumps, most notably the Series e-80, Series e-1510, Series e-1531, and Series e-1532, with a 1.25-inch shaft sleeve diameter at the mechanical seal (small bore). It's a crucial component that ensures proper sealing and prevents leaks within the pump system.

Key Features:

Function:

  • Creates a watertight barrier between the rotating shaft and stationary housing of the pump, preventing water leaks.
  • Minimizes friction between the rotating and stationary parts, contributing to smooth operation and efficiency.
  • shields internal parts from contaminants and friction-induced wear and tear.

Specifications:

  • Material: Typically includes a combination of materials like Buna rubber, carbon, ceramic, and stainless steel for durability and compatibility with various fluids and operating temperatures.
  • Size: Typically 1 1/4" shaft sleeve diameter and suitable for pumps with similar shaft sizes.
  • Compatibility: created specifically for the Xylem-Bell & Gossett series e-80, e-1510, e-1531, and e-1532 pumps; it may also work with older types such as the series 80, series 1510, and series 1531. Double-check compatibility with your exact pump model.
  • Features: Multiple components like the stationary ring, rotating ring, spring, and gland, ensure a reliable and high-performance seal.

Benefits:

  • averts the possibility of water leaks damaging your system and the surroundings.
  • Improves pump efficiency by minimizing friction.
  • prolongs the life of your pump by shielding internal parts from deterioration.
  • Relatively easy to replace for qualified technicians, minimizing downtime for your system.

Where to buy:

  • You can find the Xylem-Bell & Gossett - 186860 online and offline at plumbing supply stores, HVAC equipment suppliers, and online marketplaces.

Important notes:

  • Replacing a mechanical seal requires technical knowledge and skills. If unsure, consult a qualified pump technician for safe and proper installation.
  • Always prioritize safety when working with hydronic systems and potentially pressurized components.

Signs of a Faulty Xylem-Bell & Gossett 186860 Seal Kit:

A faulty Xylem-Bell & Gossett - 186860 mechanical seal kit in your hydronic heating or cooling system can manifest in several ways, impacting performance and potentially causing damage.  

Leaks:

  • Visible leaks around the pump: Water leaking near the pump housing, especially near the shaft entry point, is a strong indicator of a failing seal.
  • Unexplained decrease in system pressure: Gradual or sudden drops in water pressure within the system could be due to internal leaks caused by a compromised seal.
  • Increased pump noise: The pump might operate louder than usual, with gurgling sounds due to air entering the system through faulty seals.

Performance Issues:

  • Reduced pump efficiency: The pump might struggle to maintain proper water flow, leading to uneven heating or cooling throughout your building.
  • Overheating: The pump might overheat due to increased friction caused by worn or misaligned seal components.
  • Energy inefficiency: Higher energy consumption could be a sign of the pump working harder to compensate for reduced efficiency due to leaking or friction.

Other:

  • Reduced system lifespan: Worn seals can accelerate wear and tear on other pump components, potentially shortening the overall lifespan of your pump.
  • Damage to surrounding areas: Leaks can cause water damage to surrounding insulation, building materials, and even electrical components.

Remember:

  • If you notice any of these signs, immediately stop using the heating or cooling system to prevent further damage and potential safety hazards.
  • Do not attempt to diagnose or repair the pump yourself due to the complexity of hydronic systems and potential risks associated with leaks and electrical components.
  • Consult a qualified pump technician immediately for professional diagnosis and repair. They have the expertise and tools to safely identify the problem and replace the faulty 186860 Xylem-Bell & Gossett mechanical seal kit with the proper procedures.
