  MagTecta OM ™  

Designed Specifically for Oil Mist Recirculation, The Modern API Compliant and Environmentally Friendly Option.
In most modern day refineries, oil mist is the preferred method of bearing lubrication. Many refineries rely upon labyrinth technology which requires the oil mist to leak out and contaminate the surrounding area.

In many parts of the world, this practice is not viewed as environmentally acceptable.
Because labyrinth seals leak, refineries usually over-compensate the supply of oil mist, by a factor of four to maintain pressure. This means wasted energy and loss of oil mist both of which are expensive.
The Patent Pending AESSEAL® MagTecta-OM™ is designed specifically for oil mist recirculation applications. A MagTecta-OM™ controls leakage into the environment, so there is no need for over compensation of oil mist supply and costs are therefore reduced.

The MagTecta-OM™ cannot be used if the oil mist system is designed to leak through a labyrinth seal and pollute the environment.

The unique ‘lazer engraved’ inboard face of the MagTecta-OM™ (shown above left) allows oil mist to enter through its face grooves. Once inside the oil mist liquefies to provide an oil splash environment at the external seal faces. This provides seal face lubrication, making the MagTecta-OM™ ideally suited for this environment.

Non-reversible design. TXN supplied as standard.
