SEAL SELECTION GUIDE




The determination of the most reasonable seal for compelling administration conditions is frequently a sensitive exchange off among st burden and spring back of the seal. The pressure load or seating load has an immediate connection with the possible snugness where as the spring back of the seal decides how well this snugness is kept up with changing temperatures and weights. For a given seal cross segment and seal sort it is by and large genuine that with most extreme load the spring back is least. Also, obviously that seal with least load will produce the most astounding spring back. 

Taking a gander at a Metal O Ring produced using stainless steel, one with a slight divider and the other with a thick divider, the one with the dainty divider will require lower burden to be packed to notch profundity than the one with the thick divider, where the spring back of the last will be lower than the one with the meager divider. Again having a striking resemblance cross segment Metal O Ring, a seal produced using In conel  X750 ® or In conel 718 ® will have a higher burden and higher spring back than a comparative divider thickness Metal O Ring produced using stainless steel. Heading toward Metal C Rings, there is a sure likeness with spring back and seating load. The huge distinction is that Metal C Rings contrasted and the same cross area Metal O Rings, regularly create a lower burden, and along these lines a superior spring back than Metal O Rings. To conquer the low heap of Metal C Rings, the spring stimulated Metal C Ring was produced. This seal, produces a relative high and uniform seating load with a relative high spring back. The Oyster seal ® or Metal V Ring, by its shape and material determination creates a high spring back, however gives just a moderate seating load.






Compression or Seating Load :

The pressure or seating burden is communicated in N/mm seal outline. The higher the heap, the better the fixing execution will be. Delicate plating requires lower stack then harder plating. Harsh surface completion of the fixing faces require a higher burden to acquire comparative seal execution. Non plated seals regularly require amazing high loads to get specialized snugness. It will be troublesome, in any case the connected burden to get a high snugness with unplaced seals.


Tightness, Plating :


Contingent upon the required snugness, medium to be fixed and temperature, an alternate plating or covering might be chosen. For snugness superior to anything 10–9 mbar.l/s a delicate plating is constantly required. Indium and Tin are delicate platings. PTFE is a delicate covering as well, yet the realistic snugness is restricted to 10–6 mbar.l/s., in view of the own porosity of PTFE. Silver, Gold and Copper are medium delicate and require a higher burden seal to get snugness scopes of 10–9 mbar.l/s. Silver is the most well-known utilized plating. Nickel plating, being the hardest plating requires a high load seal choice.

Summarizing :


The section surface completion for any chose seal ought to be equivalent or better then Ra = 1,8. For snugness equivalent or superior to anything 10–9 mbar.l/s, a surface complete superior to anything Ra = 0,8 ought to be connected. Continuously select the greatest conceivable cross area for a given width. Select the gentlest plating took into account the application. In the event that striking burden grants, pick the most noteworthy seal load accessible when medium delicate plating, for example, silver, gold or copper is chosen. For temperatures above 350°C it is encouraged to utilize Inconel as base materials. For weights above 35 MPa it is encouraged to utilize C Ring sort seals or vented O Rings, both with or without spring empowering, contingent upon the required snugness. For high temperature applications and when an O Ring sort seal is required a gas filled seal might be the better choice.
