The Challenge of Sealing in Wastewater Environments
Wastewater treatment pumps operate under high wear, contaminated media, and often erratic flow conditions. Standard mechanical seals or packing frequently fail due to:
- Fibrous solids damaging the seal faces
- Chemical corrosion from sewage or industrial effluents
- Shaft misalignment from intermittent loading
For plant operators, leakage means more than just downtime—it means safety violations, environmental risk, and maintenance costs.
Why SK-XD564 Is the Seal of Choice for Wastewater Applications
The SK–XD564 mechanical seal is engineered for submersible and end-suction wastewater pumps. It is especially suited for municipal water plants, industrial effluent stations, and slurry-rich environments.
Key Benefits:
- Robust Face Design: Prevents damage from suspended solids
- Anti-Clog Structure: Flush grooves for improved debris removal
- Corrosion-Resistant Materials: SiC/SiC, EPDM, or FKM for compatibility with aggressive media
- Dual-spring Balance: Stable performance under fluctuating pressure
Applications Where SK-XD564 Excels
| Sector | Pump Type | SK–XD564 Advantage |
| Municipal Wastewater | End-suction/slurry pumps | Solid-blocking design, long life |
| Industrial Effluent | Chemical dosing pumps | Resistant to corrosive effluent |
| Food Processing Waste | Open impeller pumps | Anti-clog and CIP-safe |
| Mining Water Recovery | Dewatering units | Abrasion-resistant sealing |
Real Results from SK-XD564 Users
- 30–50% reduction in unplanned maintenance events
- Extended seal life from 6 to 18 months in some water plants
- Improved safety compliance through leak-proof operation

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can XD564 be used in vertical or submersible pumps?
A: Yes, the design supports both horizontal and vertical configurations.
Q2: Is external flushing required?
A: In most applications, no. SK-XD564 works well in self-flushed systems but can be enhanced with optional flush lines.
Q3: Is it available for immediate delivery?
A: We stock standard sizes and can ship within 3–5 working days.
