Mechanical Seal Tracking
For major facilities, we will help form a Seal Team with your personnel and conduct monthly on-site review meetings. At these meetings, Anchor presents reports to your Seal Team that track mechanical seal usage and wear.
We monitor the lifecycle of every seal in your facility, using our AnchorSoft computer program to provide monthly reports that help you manage and maintain your plant. AnchorSoft reports offer detailed cost per day per seal, as well as an average cost per day for each area, so you can identify and address process issues while improving your plant's efficiency.
Mechanical Seal Repair
We have a state-of-the-art mechanical seal repair facility. That means we can rebuild your seals and get them back into service quickly, without sending them out of state to be worked on. This is another element of Anchor Seals' commitment to improving your plant's efficiency.
Custom Gasket Manufacturing
In our complete gasket facility, we can custom make flange gaskets to meet your plant's specific needs. Materials include non-asbestos compressed sheet, vegetable fiber, Teflon, Teflon joint sealant, GYLON, all synthetic rubbers, Gore-Tex, and metal.
In-House Survey Programs
Our skilled technicians can visit your facility and provide a comprehensive assessment of your fluid sealing and fluid control needs. They review your process, measure and examine your current equipment, evaluate workloads, and make recommendations for improving seal performance.
Custom Training Seminars
Providing you with the proper fluid sealing equipment is only part of the solution Anchor Seals can offer. We also educate you and your personnel on installation and maintenance procedures with customized training programs. This hands-on training is appropriate for production personnel, maintenance personnel, and plant managers.
24-Hour Emergency Service and Failure Analysis
Should a seal fail while in service, we are always prepared to help. Call us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 1-800-441-8193. We will get your operation running again as quickly as possible.
Afterwards, we conduct a comprehensive analysis to determine the root cause of the failure. We will tell you whether or not the seal is at fault and offer suggestions for process improvements that may help extend the seal's life cycle.
