Use in hydrostatic drives subject to high pressures
(amongst others) For exceeding the thermal operating limits of

degradable fluids and HFC fluids. For chemical/physical incompatibility of elastomer
and lubricant.
Typical applications:
Pumps in the chemicals industry/process technology
Engines (crankshaft),
Hydrostatic drives (use of HFC fluids)
Transmissions of all kinds
Rotary joints (air).
Sealing mechanism:
Achievement of the required contact pressure force
by means of material-inherent memory effect
The frictional heat produced in operation has a
reforming action on the flexed sealing lip
Consequently, a spring is not necessary
PTFE sealing lip positioned on the shaft with a
running track width of approx. 2,5 mm.
However: depending on the construction, the dynamic
sealing behaviour is limited in some circumstances.
Depending on operating conditions, slight leakages
may occur with the use of PTFE seals without integrated
return pumping helix.
Operating conditions
Thermal loading from 130 C to +200 C
Circumferential speed: up to max. 30 m/s
"Stick-slip"-free behaviour compared to elastomers
Suitability
For dry running and insufficient lubrication
In water mixed with cleaning agents,
In steams, cooling liquids and emulsions
Suitable in mineral oils, synthetic oils and greases
Resistance
To aggressive media, such as acids, alkalis,
solvents (amongst others). Exceptions are
elementary fluorine and molten alkali metals
Applicability
For sealing of powders, granules, adhesives and
resins
