Product Description
The Universal Cartridge 5600 Series is a modular
cartridge seal family that includes interchangeable
elastomer bellows, Sealol metal bellows, and
elastomer o-ring pusher seal designs.

Dual seal arrangements incorporate an elastomer o-ring

as the dynamic secondary sealing member.
Primary and mating ring reverse balance designs allow
for ID or OD pressurization, which permits the dual seal
to operate as a tandem or double.
OD pressurization of the outboard seal avoids subjecting
components to high tensile stresses and achieves
improved cooling. On vertical installations, it allows
venting of entrapped air.

* Barrier fluid pressure relative to seal chamber pressure (API Plan 52 or 53) determines usage of the cartridge.
As a tandem, the buffer pressure is lower than process pressure; or as a double, the barrier pressure is higher
than process fluid pressure to be sealed.
** John Crane Engineering recommends barrier fluids having a viscosity less than 14cSt/65 SSU and fluid lubricity
that is equal to or better than water at 38C/100F.
*** Inboard seal (Process side) internal pressure rating is defined as the Barrier Fluid Pressure minus
the Seal Chamber Throat Pressure.

Basic Pressure Rating

Pressure (bar g)

Pressure (psig)

The Basic Pressure Rating is for a

standard seal, as shown in the typical
arrangement, when installed according
to the criteria given in this data sheet and
generally accepted industrial practices.

The Basic Pressure Rating assumes

stable operation at the speed indicated in
a clean, cool, lubricating, nonvolatile
liquid with an adequate flush rate. When
used with the multiplier factors, the
Basic Pressure Rating can be adjusted to
provide a conservative estimate of the
dynamic pressure rating. For process
services outside this range or a more
accurate assessment of the dynamic
pressure rating, contact John Crane for
more information.

Example for Determining Pressure Rating Limits:

Seal: 50.8mm/2" Diameter Type 5620
Operating Mode: Pressurized Dual
Barrier Fluid: Aqueous Solution
Face Materials: Silicon Carbide vs. Silicon Carbide
Operating Temperature: 90C/194F
Operating Speed: 2950 rpm
Using the Pressure Rating Limits graph, the
maximum pressure would be 18.5 bar g/268 psig.
From the Multiplier Factors chart, apply the multiplier factors for the specific service requirements:
18.5 bar g/268 psig x 0.75 = 13.9 bar g/201 psig

*The ratio of sealed pressure to vapor pressure must be greater than 1.5, otherwise
consult John Crane. If the specific gravity is less than 0.60, consult John Crane.

The maximum operating pressure for this

50.8mm/2" Type 5620 seal is 13.9 bar g/201 psig.
