en – Original Instructions Settling of the mechanical seal The pumped liquid lubricates the seal faces of the mechanical seal; under normal conditions, a small amount of liquid may leak out. When the unit is switched on for the first time, or after the seal is replaced, more liquid may temporarily leak out.
• Measure the pressure at zero flow rate. • Check the pressure value with the value measured at the first start: a pressure decrease exceeding 15% could indicate wear of consumable components: contact Xylem or the Authorised distributor 2. That the unit does not produce abnormal noises or vibrations.
