Installation guide for Garlock STYLE #9000 EVSP Simplified Sealing Sets, covering ring stack layout, required measurements, and torque procedures.
This guide provides step‑by‑step instructions for installing the Garlock STYLE #9000 EVSP Simplified sealing sets. It includes the ring‑stack arrangement, required stuffing‑box depth measurements, and selection of the appropriate 5‑, 6‑, or 7‑ring set.
The document also details compression targets, gland‑stud torque values, and an alternate torque‑based method to achieve the correct gland load. Follow the procedures to ensure proper sealing performance and consistent torque on the gland studs.
| Ring Set Options | 5, 6, or 7 rings |
|---|---|
| Target Compression Factor | ≈30 % |
| Target Gland Load | 3800 psi or 1.5 × system pressure |
Use a 7‑ring set whenever possible; otherwise select 5 or 6 rings based on the stuffing‑box depth chart.
Aim for a gland load of 3800 psi or 1.5 × the system pressure, which can be achieved by measuring bolt torque.
