MECHANICAL SEAL REPLACEMENT
Should the mechanical seal, which consists of seal seat (Ref.
No. 6), seal cartridge (Ref. No. 5), and shaft sleeve (Ref. No.
19, if applicable) require replacement, proceed as follows and
refer to Figures 1 and 2. The seal should also be replaced if
the adapter (Ref. No. 8) is to be replaced. To identify seal
failure, see Troubleshooting Chart.
Figure 1 Figure 2
NOTE: Always replace the seal seat, seal cartridge, and shaft
sleeve to ensure proper mating of mechanical seal
components!
1. Unthread bolts (Ref. No. 9) and remove casing (Ref. No.
1) from adapter.
2. Unthread screw(s) (Ref. No. 11) and remove volute from
adapter.
3. 316A-95 and 316B-95 (Figure 1):
Remove impeller lock nut (Ref. No. 18). Unscrew impeller
(Ref. No. 3) from the motor shaft. Use a rubber mallet or
soft block of wood to loosen impeller. Turn it counter-
clockwise. Remove the impeller shim (Ref. No. 4) and
seal cartridge (Ref. No. 5).
4. 393A-95, 393B-95, 394A-95, 394B-95, 394E-95, 394F-95,
and 399C-95 (Figure 2): Using an Allen wrench, remove
the impeller lock bolt (Ref. No. 18) and O-ring (Ref. No.

IMPORTANT: Care should be taken to insure that the same
number of impeller shims (Ref. No. 4) are replaced behind the
impeller as were removed. These impeller shims are located
directly behind impeller. These shims as well as the impeller
key (Ref. No. 21) become loose as the impeller is removed.
5. Unthread cap screws (Ref. No. 13) and remove adapter
from motor.
6. Push seal seat (Ref. No. 6) from the adapter recess with a
