HYDRAULIC COMPONENTS Sealing components for hydraulic applications are used to seal linear/reciprocating moving components. Sealing elements are selected according to the application at hand and its operating parameters, such as pressure, speed, hydraulic medium and operating temperature. STRUCTURE AND SEALING COMPONENTS OF A HYDRAULIC CYLINDER THE COMPONENTS USED IN HYDRAULICS INCLUDE • Piston seals • Piston rod seals/rod seals • Wipers • Guiding elements • O-Rings The requirements for the application are the decisive factor for selecting the seal profile and other seal components. Other factors...

DIMENSIONS Designations of our hydraulic seals Our nomenclature N = U-Cup K = Piston seal S = Rod seal A = Wiper F = Guide elements Types Within the assemblies listed above, we distinguish between the following types: Rod seals, piston seals, wipers and guide elements are always defined according to the installation space dimension. This means that the size specifications of the seal correspond to the sizes of the installation space and that the installation space and not the seal is always measured. We also provide the H dimension (measured width of the seal) for many of our piston and rod seals....

THE SEALING MECHANISM OF ROD SEALS – DYNAMIC SEALING MECHANISM The critical point of a hydraulic system is the rod seal. Leakage of hydraulic fluid from the cylinder would prevent trouble-free operation and lead to environmental damage, among other things. The sealing mechanism between the dynamic sealing lip and the rod is based on the hydrodynamic processes in the sealing gap. When the sealing system starts to move, the liquid film is drawn off by the sealing lip. The resulting drag flow and hydrodynamic pressure buildup create the dynamic sealing gap. What remains is a thin lubricating film,...

The following principles apply to the design of the installation space and should be strictly observed for trouble-free operation and a long service life of the seal: • rounded corners in the groove base (1) ensure correct seating of hydraulic seals • rounded groove flank transitions (2) reduce the risk of gap extrusion • the surface finish of the groove base (3) and the groove flanks (4) ensure a good sealing function • compliance with the tolerances for the groove width (5), the installation chamfer (6) and the correct dimensions of the sealing gap on the non-pressure side (7) • the surface...

Compact seal type K Piston The radius R for wiper designs AE40 and AE42 is selected as follows, depending on the height of the wiper: H [mm] < 12 16 18 For wiper types AE41, AE47, AD48 and AD51, the radius is always R = 0.5 regardless of the wiper height. Roof collar sets type KDS 01, SDS 01 The AD60 and AD61 wipers require an axially accessible installation space with small diameters. With larger diameters, a closed installation space can be provided. Subsequent calibration is recommended. Please refer to the following table for dimension G and radius R: When using double wipers, depending on...

Even though the materials used for Dichtomatik brand hydraulic seals deliver excellent performance and are robust, special care is required during installation. Mechanical damage, especially to the sealing edge, can lead to leakage. In addition, each seal must be checked before installation for damage or aging that may have already occurred during transport or storage. Instructions for mounting: 1. In the case of single-acting seals, the seal must be installed with the preload side facing the pressure side 2. Insertion chamfers are absolutely necessary on the cylinder barrel and piston rod. The...

Since PTFE has virtually no elastic properties, PTFE-pre-loaded sealing elements (SPOR30, SPOR31, KPOR30, KPOR31) must be installed with particular care and then be calibrated. Observe the following installation instructions: Installation of piston seals in an enclosed groove Insert the O-Ring into the groove without torsion: We recommend the procedure already described for PTFE seals. In this case, the PTFE ring is pushed over a conical assembly aid with an expansion sleeve until it snaps into the groove to expand the ring. The deformation of the expanded PTFE ring is accelerated with a calibration...
