In this case, only return re ‘one rotational direction of the shaft is permissible. Return Feed Spiral Groove in the ‘Shoft Surface/Protection Sleeve @ | The hydrodynamic return feed spiral ‘groove should have the following characteristics: + Spiral angle to the plane surface: 5-10" + Spiral groove depth: Rz 3-5 ym + Spacing of the spiral groove must be uniform across the whole contacting surface, with individual ‘grooves located close to each other individual grooves in other angular directions should be avoided ‘Return Feed Spiral Groove in the ‘Sealing Lip ‘The hydrodynamic return feed spiral ‘groove is worked into the PTFE sealing lip.

Relevant criteria are the sealing lip compound, pressure conditions and peripheral speeds. Generally, hhard contact surfaces are recom- mended. Hardened steel is the most com- ‘monly used shaft material. Compared to other shaft materials and coatings, the use of hardened steel achieves very good service life of the seating lip. In case of soft shafts or special applications itis possible to coat the shaft. Due to the large number of coating methods and manufacturers of coating materials a general recommendation cannot be made. (C1,0,-coatings on high-grade/ stainless steel shafts, though, have been found to work well. However, the heat-insulating surface usually ‘results in slightly higher wear of the seating lip.

(omperture contact sutace) Testatmosphere: air Testperiod: SOW Hardness The required hardness of the con- tact surface depends on a number of application parameters. For some applications with low demands on the shaft sealing ring (pressures slightly above atmospheric and low Peripheral speeds) soft shafts may be suitable as well. This, however, also depends on the PTFE compound used. In case of more exacting re- ‘quirements an¢ pressurized applica- tions, we recom-mend that the shaft has a hardness of = 58 HRC. surface influences sealing perfor- mance (tightness) and service life of the shaft seal, To achieve optimum sealing perfor- mance the surface roughness values recommended should be complied with to the extent possible. Machin- ing grooves, scratches and cavi- ties piping have a negative impact on sealing performance. We recom- ‘mend grinding the shaft in the recess of the sealing area. Another option is the application of a hydro- dynamic return feed spiral groove. ‘Recommended surface roughness of the contact surface: Ra =0.2-0.63 ym Re = 1-3ym Rmax = 1-4 ym ‘The material content M, should be 50 75%, measured in a cut depth = 25% of the Rz value based on a reference value of 5%. In case of very hard surfaces, such as chromium oxide, roughness levels of R7=1—1.5 ymand Ra=0.15-0.2 um have been successfully used.Fitting Fitting Instructions PTFE shaft seals are press-fitted into the receiving hole. We recom- ‘mend that the slued into the receiving hole and/or use ofa sealing/joining compound (e.g. Loctite 602, 643). n case of critical applications this prevents the risk of potential leakage occurring ing rings be at the outer diameter.

We recommend use of a conical fitting tool. When fitting the seal in the direction of the molded sealing lip ‘a radius at the shaft may suffice In exceptional cases. The surface ofthe fitting tool must be free from scoring. All edges must be rounded off, and sharp edge transitions avoided. When fitting ‘across grooves or threads, the coni- cal fitting tool must be used with ‘a thin-walled extension, Temporary over-stretching of the PTFE lip, during the assembly process is per- missible. Fitting Tools ‘To avold deformations of the shaft seal, the seals must press-fited as follows: Additional Fitting Instructions ‘Prior to starting the seal-fitting process, the sealing lip must be inspected for cleanliness and possible damage ‘The seating lips must not be deformed + Seals may be fitted without lubrication.
