LATERAL EXTRACTION SHAFT: 

This shaft is designed so that the sealed cartridge (single or double mechanical seal) can easily be maintained without removing the guide head and the stirrer drive shaft, by simply pulling it out from the side of the shaft. This makes it a much simpler operation which can be completed in 2 hours on the owner’s site, without complicated lifting gear.

This technology can be installed on both vertical and lateral stirrers. 
The operation to pull out the mechanical seal unit can be assisted by a mechanical or hydraulic “extraction jack”.
