Meccanotecnica Umbra designs and manufactures special lines of mechanical seals for the household appliance sector. “As is the case with products manufactured for other industries – the company says –, their production is the result of strong partnership with companies involved in the construction of pumps for the relevant sector”. Meccanotecnica Umbra offers mechanical seals for dishwasher pumps for both domestic and industrial use. “Starting from an assessment of use, it is crucial that their leak tightness and quietness level be as high as possible – the company adds –. These parameters must be guaranteed over time to avoid malfunctions that could then affect the effectiveness of the appliance. The professionals working within the Meccanotecnica Umbra team are perfectly familiar with the requirements of the sector and, for this reason, have dedicated special attention to the study and development of mechanical seals specifically for the household appliance sector”. As communicated by the company, in addition to being fully customisable these products are characterised by long service life, reliability, quiet pump operation and excellent motor starting torque after prolonged standstill. “The mechanical seal for dishwasher pumps – Meccanotecnica Umbra concludes – is also achieved through a combination of certain materials, including a special type of PTFE (Mecflon) which is researched and developed by staff in our laboratory”.
