The Keto bearing cartridge assembly offers many updated parts to improve on typical OEM failure points and allows increased lfe of the unit and reliable operation. Keto parts are interchangeable with certain OEM designs allowing you to upgrade without complex modification and costs, TYPICAL OEM FAILURE POINTS Itmakes little sense to renew or replace bearing housing rotating parts to the same original specifications that allow it to fail or under perform in the first place? Don't expect different results when using the same OFM ideas, parts and maintenance methods. THE KETO ALTERNATIVE Features include: + No need to grease daly! * Direct upgrade on existing housings * Longer service intervals/nigher reliabiity ‘+ Resists water entering bearing housing even under high pressure gland leakage * Lower grease consumption/lower environmental impact * Corrosion resistant alloys offered as standard with duplex alloy alternatives ‘+ No piston rings to wear or break * High quality grease can now be used as no labyrinth purge is used (unlike other OEM labyrinth designs) + Available from smallest sizes to largest pumps * End cover kits available for upgrading existing equipment * Oil or grease lubrication possible without extensive modification www.ketopumps.com MODERN BEARING HOUSINGS Contaminants are the number one enemy of bearings. According to studies, 70% of all bearing failures are due to the contaminants being entrained in the lubricant. Keto Kbam Bearing ‘Assemblies do not risk entrainment of metal flings from piston rings in the lubricant, and our patented Keto Labyrinth Bearing Isolator (KLBI is designed to stop any contaminants entering from outside. Grease retainer and Oil finger: We ci the ingenious thing. We took the ‘grease retainer and incorporated an oil finger. This simple idea alows the single ‘component todo both tasks, An ol finger {for customers pretering ol ubrication and a grease retaner for customers preferring grease ubrcaton, severe spray y «e) The stainless stee!non- contact bearing isolator Goesnt wear ‘Stainless steel end covers are standare Patented oi finger The patented rotor has and grease retainer i a feature that acts as an impeller when gland water approaches, and acts as a fan to blow away fine dust Better protection than a Bearing isolators. Compare withthe best bearing isolators and you wil find the KLBI design s superior. Bearing isolators rely on COrrngs to drive them. These Orings are prone to slippage, particulary ‘on larger shaft sizes. The KLBI design does not use any Orings being positively drven by the shaft sleeve t [s the frst and only to blow fine ust and liquid away ffom the seal Grease is drected tothe bearngs (nat 95% to waste) Double protection: Shims pls an Oring protect against possible ‘contaminant entry Labyrinth bearing isolator: Ituly isolates the bearings Freee eas te oteet | fom outside water and dust wash down ea to protect ‘against gland spray KETO pic) BTU acer) LL Sec) OL Seen UnAG) Pac) en Ocom oy DMC) or CO) Pieri enact Tel: +61 8 6310 4100, PERLE aR B Uy aE DT CFCC PS ity LOT eg La eae eC 168 North Cove Drive aC Renan ern Mast RPV aa eae vy Meu) epee aa) iar Seer eer BEET) General Enquiries SCIELO esto Fax: +61 8 9249 1617 aCe toa ee eet Dee et nase ed uy
