Abstract:
A two-piece labyrinth seal adapted to be easily and quickly mounted upon a shaft (60) within a housing (70) to minimize downtime of the equipment. The seal is formed of a rotor (10) and a stator (30). The rotor (10) and the stator (30) are each formed of two relatively equal portions. The rotor portions and the stator portions each mate at an interface (99). The interface (99) is generally along an axial plane and crosses the plane at least twice within the rotor (10) and within the stator (30). The rotor (10) is interlocked with the stator (30). The rotor and stator portions are mechanically connected.
