A rotating compact package seal assembly is disclosed, the seal being designed as a double mechanical seal with one seal mounted concentrically inside the other seal. The compact seal of the invention is thereby approximately one-half the package height of a conventional double mechanical seal and contains means whereby the inner and outer seals may be connected together for easy removal of the seal assembly as a unit thereby providing a seal assembly that may be bench assembled, tested, and stocked on the customer's shelf as a pretested assembly which may be later installed with a minimum of downtime.
