FLUID HANDLING RX® Rotary Union 2” to 3” Single Flow The RX rotary union connects stationary piping to a rotating device. The fluid is sealed by precision, micro-lapped seals that provide a uniform, full-flow design. The union is supported by two widely-spaced anti-friction bearings and is available with a bearing isolation system for added bearing protection. The RX union is capable of intermittent dry running and features a 100% pure-molded carbon graphite or silicon carbide seal and tungsten carbide counterseat. Standard RX Ratings Pressure: Speed, flanged rotor: Speed, thread rotor: Consult Kadant Johnson for RX-1, RX-2, and RX-3 unions for applications up to 450°F (232°C). High-pressure RX-4 and RX-5 water unions are available in 2” size up to 400°F (204°C) and 363 psig (25 bar).
