Abstract
A shaft seal assembly 10 for a high speed centrifugal pump has a primary seal (30) and a secondary seal (32). During normal operation the primary seal has its nose (38) in firm engagement with a seal face (28) and the secondary seal has its nose (42) in light engagement with the seal face. Upon failure of the primary seal, the nose of the secondary seal is urged into firm engagement with the seal face. An orifice (58) in the nose of the secondary seal allows for controlled leakage which indicates primary seal failure.
