Italian term or phrase: tenuta meccanica a contatto frontale bilanciata
Per non fare penetrare l'acqua in pressione all'interno del contenitore, sull'asse elica, vi è installato una "tenuta meccanica a contatto frontale bilanciata". Questo tipo di tenuta, ha la necessità di essere fluido compensata quindi, il motore elettrico impiegato, è del tipo senza spazzole.
I know that a tenuta meccanica is a mechanical seal but I'm not sure about the rest. All help is appreciated. Eileen
