CAPABILITIES
ROTATING EQUIPMENT PROTECTION &
MOVEMENT CONTROL.
Bearing contamination, fluid leakage, and uncontrolled piping movement are the root causes behind most rotating equipment failures. Kelley Industrial evaluates the application and recommends the right solution — not the catalog default. Select a capability area below or call us with the equipment and we’ll point you in the right direction.

THE PROBLEM
APPLICATION AUTHORITY.
NOT A PARTS TRANSACTION.
Rotating equipment fails for specific, traceable reasons — contamination through a worn lip seal, the wrong packing fiber in an abrasive service, piping stress loading a pump nozzle that no one traced back to the missing expansion joint. Most of these failures are preventable when the application is evaluated correctly before a product is specified.
Kelley Industrial has worked in and around Midwest refineries, chemical plants, and heavy manufacturers since 1997. We approach rotating equipment protection as a system-level discipline: understand the failure mode, characterize the operating conditions, and recommend the right combination of technologies to address the root cause. The four capability areas below cover the full scope of that work.
CAPABILITY AREAS
SELECT YOUR SOLUTION AREA
01
BEARING ISOLATION & CONTAMINATION CONTROL
INPRO/SEAL BEARING ISOLATORS
Non-contact bearing isolators that permanently eliminate contamination ingress and lubricant loss – the two causes behind more than half of all bearing failures. No maintenance interval. IP66-rated protection for the lifetime of the equipment. Custom-engineered to exact shaft and bore dimensions for pumps, motors, gearboxes, turbines, fans and pillow blocks

VB45-U
MINI66
VBMAC

PROCESS EQUIPMENT SHAFT SEALING
INPRO/SEAL AIR MIZER SHAFT SEALS
Positive air purge shaft seals for mixers, blenders, agitators, rotary valves, screw conveyors and pulpers. Eliminate chronic product leakage from worn packing and lip seals – permanently, without wearing surfaces or shaft grooving. Full articulation for radial and axial movement simultaneously. FDA-approved materials available for food and pharmaceutical applications.

FLUID SEALING & MECHANICAL PACKING
SEPCO COMPRESSION PACKING & MECHANCIAL SEALS
Application-driven compression packing and mechanical seals for pumps, valves, mixers, and agitators. the right fiber construction for the specific pressure, temperature, shaft speed, and process fluid – not the default option from a bin. SEPCO manufactures across the full fiber matrix: aramid, PTFE, flexible graphite, and acrylic, with die-formed rings for pump applications and ISO 9001 certification throughout.

EXPANSION JOINTS & MOVEMENT CONTROL
FLEXICRAFT & PROCO EXPANSION JOINTS
Metal, rubber, PTFE, and fabric expansion joints for thermal expansion, vibration isolation, and piping misalignment. Uncontrolled movement loads pump nozzles and bearing housing until they crack or leak – often treated as a mechanical failure long after the piping system cause it. Flexicraft and Proco together cover every expansion joint type, material and movement requirement we encounter
