Building on the success of a patented “universal joint self-aligning system”, the SCUSI™ development incorporates improved third-generation self-aligning technology.
With the aid of Finite Element Analysis (FEA), a range of seals were designed to optimize the use of silicon carbide. The third-generation seal incorporates an improved self-aligning concept and prevents shock damage to silicon carbide on start-up, which is the most significant reason for silicon carbide damage in other seal designs.
Features:
- Easy, reliable installation
- Flush port as standard for cooling or venting to maximize seal life
- Self-aligning stationary face with radial locating pins minimizes damage in stop/start applications and viscous fluids
- Sizes available from 1.000" to 2.750" (24mm - 70mm)
- Hydraulically balanced seal-face technology for reduced power consumption
- Non-clogging rotaries and non-shaft-fretting elastomers
- Multiple spring and positive set screw shaft drive
