Gap dimension

Guides

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 → Simrit Standard Catalogue, Merkel Hydraulics – Technical Principles. N 1 (Material 90 NBR 109) Max. permissible gap size 2,5 MPa

Tolerance recommendation and dimension D2/d2

Symmetric Seals

During the design of D2 (rod seal) or d2 (piston seal) the permissible gap dimension, tolerances, guide play and deflection of the guide under load are to be taken into consideration. → Simrit Standard Catalogue, Merkel Hydraulics – Technical Principles.

Fitting & installation

Fitting Tools

Static Seals

Careful fitting is a prerequisite for correct function of the seal. → Simrit Standard Catalogue, Merkel Hydraulics – Technical Principles. Note: The use of male adaptors increases the reliability. Further information is available on enquiry.
