The Rash is a mechanical seal designed for shaft diameters ranging from 2 inches to 7-7/8 inches, part of the modular Rash series intended for mixers and reactors. The acronym "RASH" stands for Reactor, Agitator, Seal, and Heavy duty, highlighting its suitability for heavy-duty applications. It offers the convenience of a cartridge design for easy installation. The Rash 200 model is versatile, capable of transitioning between different models. It can be configured as a double seal or adapted to a high-pressure seal without the need for expensive modifications or encountering significant difficulties.
An internal bearing is incorporated to help stabilize the shaft, which could otherwise adversely affect the seal's performance. Cooling or heating jackets are available, depending on operational needs, to control process conditions. The Rash 200 can also be offered in a bi-metal configuration, with wetted parts made of Hastelloy for corrosion resistance and non-wetted parts made from more economical materials to balance cost and performance.
Overall, the Rash 200 upholds the highest safety standards and is engineered under the principle of "same parts, different models," ensuring versatility and reliability in various industrial applications.
