single acting

the PS 01 seal is designed for use as a piston seal - either single or double acting where two seals are used ‘back to back’

area of application: hydraulics

reciprocating pistons in hydraulic cylinders. piston seal for applications with small extrusion gap and without special impact load. can also be used as a pivot seal at low loads.

note

• this seal has the correct functioning dimensions only when mounted.in unmounted condition, the seal may appear too small.
• the ratio between  nominal width and sealing height cs/H should not drop below a value of 1/1.25 (essentially according to ISO 5597housings for piston and rod seals).
• for short strokes the pS03  type is preferred.

function

PS 01 profiles are lip seals designed to seal pressurised space against the atmosphere or -in case of back to back arrangement with inter- mediate guidering – to seal between two pressurised spaces, mainly for reciprocating movements. the design is based on application in standard hydraulic systems with conventional hydraulic oils. the operating parameters are as defined in the sealing data sheet and material data. requirements deviating from these parameters can be met to a certain degree by changing the geometry in the software program.

operating parameters & material

the stated operation conditions represent general indications. it is recommended not to use all maximum  values simultaneously. surface speed limits apply only to the presence of adequate lubrication film.

1 pressure ratings are dependent on the size of the extrusion gap.

for detailed information regarding chemical resistance please refer to our „list of resistance“. for increased chemical and thermal resistance rubber

materials are to be preferred, attention  should be paid to restrictions for pressure range and wear resistance. for higher gliding  speeds another system should be used (e.g. PTFE materials).

gap dimension

important note:

the above data are maximum value and can’t be used at the same time. e.g. the maximum operating speed depend on material type, pressure, tem- perature and gap value. temperature range also dependent on medium.

the table applies to an operating temperature  of 70 °C.

use larger cross sections to increase maximum allowed gap dimension. if the permissible extrusion gap cannot be achieved, K02-P is to be used.

surface quality

tolerance recommendation

mode of installation

for inside diameters of 40mm and more, the seal can generally be slipped over the piston and snapped into closed grooves. due to occuring de- formation force at installation, assembly aid tools are to be used for large cross-sections. the material deformation should not exceed the value of 20%, otherwise the permanent deformation would be too large.

recommended mounting space:

plastic guiderings (wearbands) have to feature a adequate cutting gap (recommendation:  2-5% of D). if metalic guides are used, spiral grooves shall be provided. smaller values for Hmin will ease the installation (reduced elongation and mounting force) but the height of the retaining col- lar has to be sufficient to assure a stable fit in the housing ( larger than cs/2, smaller retaining collars will increase the danger of eversion of the profile in case of occuring drag pressure).

in order to avoid drag pressure built up in case of back-to-back arrangement, the distance between the seals should be as small as possible.

insertion chamfer:

in order to avoid damage to the piston  seal during installation, the piston and the housing is to be chamfered and rounded as shown in the

“recommended mounting space” drawing. the size of chamfer depends on the seal type and profile width.

instead of a chamfer, the piston can also be designed with a radius. recommended size of the radius is equal to size of chamfer (R=c).

 seal & housing recommendations

please note that we are able to produce those profiles to your specific need or any non standard housing. for detail measurements, please see Jet seal pars  catalog...

the ratio between nominal width and seal height cs/H should not drop below 1/1.25. therefore we recommend the following housing heights.

area of application: hydraulics

• reciprocating pistons in hydraulic cylinders.
• as piston seals for switching functions (e.g. clutch operation).
• as piston seals for clamping functions.
• replacement for rubber fabric seals of older equipment.

note

• under certain operating conditions, this seal may “pump” via the trailing side, e. as it does not fit tightly on the inside diameter, small amounts of operating media may be pressed out when the seal is deformed under pressure which may result in additional drag pres- sure built up.
• the ratio between nominal width and sealing height cs/H should not drop below a value of 1/1.25 (essentially according to ISO 5597 housings for piston and rod seals).
• high degree of fric
• high break-away moment.
• the recovery volume is smaller than with simple lip seals.
• cross-section limited to 20
• not suitable for new designs (prefer the more modern K03-P type).

function

PS 07  profiles are compact seals designed to seal pressurised space against the atmosphere or - in case of back to back arrangement with intermediate guidering – to seal between two pressurised spaces, mainly for reciprocating movements. the design is based on applica- tion in standard hydraulic systems with conventional hydraulic oils. the operating parameters are as defined in the sealing data sheet and material data. requirements deviating from these parameters can be met to a certain degree by changing the geometry in the software program.

operating parameters & material

the stated operation conditions represent general indications. it is recommended not to use all maximum values simultaneously. surface speed limits apply only to the presence of adequate lubrication film.

for detailed information regarding chemical resistance please refer to our „list of resistance“. for increased chemical and thermal resistance rubber

materials are to be preferred, attention should be paid to restrictions for pressure range and wear resistance. for higher gliding speeds another system should be used (e.g. PTFE materials).

note on special materials:

other materials such as Viton, Silicone, EPDM, H-NBR, etc., can be used for the preload element, but they are only useful in specific cases (tem-

perature or chemical influences).

gap dimension

important note:

the above data are maximum value and can’t be used at the same time. e.g. the maximum operating speed depend on material type, pressure, tem- perature and gap value. temperature range also dependent on medium.

the table applies to an operating temperature of 70 °C.

use larger cross sections to increase maximum allowed gap dimension. if the permissible extrusion gap cannot be achieved, K04-P is to be used.

surface quality

tolerance recommendation

mode of installation

for inside diameters of 40mm and more, the seal can generally be slipped over the piston and snapped into closed grooves. due to occuring de- formation force at installation, assembly aid tools are to be used for large cross-sections. the material deformation should not exceed the value of 20%, otherwise the permanent deformation would be too large.

recommended mounting space:

plastic guiderings (wearbands) have to feature a adequate cutting gap (recommendation: 2-5% of D). if metalic guides are used, spiral grooves shall be provided. smaller values for Hmin will ease the installation (reduced elongation and mounting force) but the height of the retaining col- lar has to be sufficient to assure a stable fit in the housing ( larger than cs/2, smaller retaining collars will increase the danger of eversion of the profile in case of occuring drag pressure).

in order to avoid drag pressure built up in case of back-to-back arrangement, the distance between the seals should be as small as possible.

insertion chamfer:

in order to avoid damage to the piston seal during installation, the piston and the housing is to be chamfered and rounded as shown in the “recommended mounting space” drawing. the size of chamfer depends on the seal type and profile width.

instead of a chamfer, the piston can also be designed with a radius. recommended size of the radius is equal to size of chamfer (R=c).

please note that we are able to produce those profiles to your specific need or any non standard housing. for detail measurements, please see Jet seal pars catalog...

description

the seal profile of the PS08-AQ5  has been redesigned on both the dynamic and static seal- ing surface. two O-rings are used to energize the seal instead of one.

the PS08-AQ5 combines the benefits of a low-friction PTFE filled slipper seal with the high sealing characteristics of an elastomeric seal by incorporating  a limited foot print X- ring seal in the dynamic  sealing face. this optimizes leakage control while minimizing friction.

the particular characteristics of the PS08-AQ5  are the special seal profile with a defined seal edge and the use of two O-Rings as energizing elements to optimize the pressure profile and to reduce the force of attack at gas permeability.

description

the PS 08-D is a rubber  energised plastic faced seal. the seal is designed to expand and improve the service parameters of O-Rings and is installed in existing O-Ring grooves. K08-SB combines the flexibility and response of O-Rings with the wear and friction characteristics of the PTFE series  materials in dynamic applications. the double acting performance of the seal follows from the symmetrical cross section which allow the seal to respond to pressure in both directions. initial contact pressure is provided by radial compression of the O-Ring. when the system pressure is increased the O-Ring transforms this into additional contact pressure, the contact pressure of the seal is thereby automatically adjusted so sealing is ensured under all service conditions. the drawing below shows the cross section of K08-SB, without and with pressure.

description

the piston sealing set profile K08-SF consists of a PTFE piston sealing ring and an O- ring. they are combined as a single unit and are appropriate for double-acting pistons in hydraulic & pneumatic cylinders.

profile K08-SF is particularly suitable for double-acting hydraulic & pneumatic pistons, e.g. in control cylinders, servo-assisted equipment, and in quick acting cylinders.

category of profile

machined or molded/standard/trade product.

area of application: hydraulics & pneumatics

advantages for hydraulics

double-acting piston seal for the lower pressure range with the properties of :

• low friction.
• low housing height.

advantages for pneumatics

• assembly on one-piece piston.
• short assembled length.
• minimal break-out and dynamic slide friction. therefore no stick-slip. steady movement is guaranteed even at low velocities.
• low wear.
• high extrusion resistance.
• high temperature resistance.

function

the K08-SF is a double acting piston seal. it is preferably used for existing housings which deviate from the norm. the reduced profile size of the PTFE sealing ring facilitates installation.

operating parameters & material

important note:

the above data are maximum values and can’t be used at the same time. e.g. the maximum operating speed depend on material type, pressure, temperature and gap value. temperature range also dependent on medium.

1 pressure ratings are dependent on the size of the extrusion gap.

gap dimension

the largest gap dimension occurring on the non-pressurised side of the seal in operation is of vital importance for the function of the seal. we recommend a metal guide H8/f7.

• especially for heavy hydraulic applications or heavy-duty operating conditions.
• for repairs of heavy machinery and for normal wear, when re-tightening is possible

note

• expensive and complex desig
• high degree of friction and thus little mechanical efficiency.
• for large numbers. for small amounts, the K1012-T profile is preferred.
• too many chevrons or too high clamping torque at installation can load to increased friction, and wear (for standard applications use

mode of installation

open housings are required.

in case of already existing closed grooves the pressure and the support ring can be split for installation (pressure ring with cutting gap 0). the

chevron has to be slipped in uncut. the support ring should be made of two parts (like ST08+K10) for easier installation into closed grooves.

recommended mounting space:

plastic guiderings (wearbands) have to feature a adequate cutting gap (recommendation: 2-5% of D). if metalic guides are used, spiral grooves shall be provided.

in order to avoid drag pressure built up in case of back-to-back arrangement, the distance between the seals should be as small as possible.

insertion chamfer:

in order to avoid damage to the piston seal during installation, the piston and the housing is to be chamfered and rounded as shown in the “recommended mounting space” drawing. the size of chamfer depends on the seal type and profile width.

instead of a chamfer, the piston can also be designed with a radius. recommended size of the radius is equal to size of chamfer (R=c).

the first guiding and backup element should be placed into the groove, then the sealing element should be slipped over the piston and snapped into the groove, then the second guiding and backup element should be placed into the groove. for inside diameters of 25mm and more, the seal can generally be slipped over the piston and snapped into closed grooves. due to occuring deformation force at installation, as- sembly aid tools are to be used for large cross sections. the material deformation should not exceed the value of 30%, otherwise the permanent deformation would be too large.

recommended mounting space:

insertion chamfer:

in order to avoid damage to the piston seal during installation, the piston and the housing is to be chamfered and rounded as shown in the

“recommended mounting space” drawing. the size of chamfer depends on the seal type and profile width.

instead of a chamfer, the piston can also be designed with a radius. Recommended size of the radius is equal to size of chamfer (R=c).

seal & housing recommendations

please note that we are able to produce those profiles to your specific need or any non standard housing. for detail measurements, please see Jet seal pars  catalog...

the ratio between nominal width and seal height cs/H should be approximately 1/2. therefore we recommend the following housing heights.

we recommend to use K09-N for cross sections above  10 mm

fitted:

don’t hesitate to contact our technical department for further information or for special requirements (temperature, speed etc.), so that suitable materi- als and/or designs can be recommended.

the PS17-A seal is designed for use as a piston seal.

area of application: hydraulics

• reciprocating pistons in hydraulic cylinders.
• as piston seals for clamping function resp.for moderate requests for movement.

• the ratio between nominal width and sealing height cs/H should be approximately 1/2.
• for cross sections above 10 mm we recommend to use profile K09-N.

function

PS17-A profiles are compact  piston seals designed  to seal between two pressurised spaces; mainly for reciprocating movements. the design is based on application in standard hydraulic systems with conventional hydraulic oils.

the operating parameters are as defined in the sealing data sheet and material data. requirements deviating from these parameters can be met to a certain degree by changing the geometry in the software program.

operating parameters & material

the stated operation conditions represent general indications. it is recommended not to use all maximum  values simultaneously. surface speed limits apply only to the presence of adequate lubrication film.

1 pressure ratings are dependent on the size of the extrusion gap.

2 POM up to ø260 mm, PA above ø260 mm

++ ... particularly suitable                         o ... conditional suitable

+ ... suitable                                         - ... not suitable

for detailed information regarding chemical resistance please refer to our „list of resistance“. for increased chemical and thermal resistance rubber

materials are to be preferred, attention  should be paid to restrictions for pressure range and wear resistance. for higher gliding  speeds another system should be used (e.g. PTFE materials).

note on special materials:

the temperature limits are determined by the guide- and support parts, using special materials can expand the temperature limits.

gap dimension

by using the guide and support parts, the extrusion gap for the sealing part is already integrated  in the seal. the gap between piston and housing should not exceed (D-d1)·0.13 resp. 1mm, fabrication tolerances have to be included.
