Abstract: The invention refers to a mechanical seal arrangement, comprising: a rotatable seal ring (2), a stationary seal ring (3) and a secondary seal device (5), said secondary seal device (5) being made in one piece and comprising a secondary seal (51) and a ring element (52) of different materials, and the ring element (52) being arranged on the secondary seal (51) on a side directed to the stationary seal ring (3).

Abstract: The present invention refers to an apparatus for rotationally fixing a seal ring (4) of a mechanical seal assembly retained at a mounting component (1) to be axially movable, comprising a force transmitting ring (10) retained at the mounting component to be axially movable and a rotation prevention device comprising at least one first engaging member (17) configured to engage with the mounting component and the force transmitting ring in a form-fit manner and at least one second engaging member (18) configured to engage with the force transmitting ring and the seal ring in a form-fit manner, the first engaging member being arranged circumferentially offset with respect to the second engaging member, characterized in that the engaging members (17, 18) protrude axially from the force transmitting ring (10) or the seal ring (4) toward the respectively other component (seal ring or force transmitting ring) and are configured to be received in axial recesses (19, 20) provided in the respectively other component wi

Abstract: A mechanical seal assembly including at least one pair of co-operating seal rings, one of which is provided for common rotation with a rotating component and the other of which is provided rotationally fixed at a stationary component. One of the seal rings is axially movable and axially biased with a biasing force against the other seal ring, the biasing force being transmittable through a force transmitting ring to the respective seal ring, in order to bias facing sliding surfaces of the seal rings, between which a sealing gap is formed during operation, in a mutual sealing engagement, and a secondary sealing assembly provided at the force transmitting ring for sealing the axially movable seal ring with respect to at least one circumferential guiding surface of a guiding component guiding the movement of the seal ring and the force transmitting ring.
