Design Features
• The spring and drive are outside the product,
decreasing clogging and permitting simple, efficient
external cleaning
• Face carrier can be removed without disturbing the
drive ring
• Dynamic O-ring slides on integrated sleeve
• Standard one-piece seat/mating ring
• Handles high drive torque in viscous fluids
• Positive drive is not dependent on direction of rotation
• Balanced seal is installed in narrow section

Using the basic pressure rating graph, the maximum pressure would be 25 bar(g)/360 psi(g).
From the multiplier factors chart, apply the multiplier factors for the specific service requirements
to determine the maximum operating pressure for the application:
25 bar(g)/360 psi(g) x (0.75) x (1.00)x (1,800/3,000) = 11.3 bar(g)/164 psi(g).
The maximum operating pressure of this 60mm/2.36" Type 50 seal is 11.3 bar(g)/164 psi(g).
