Seal Chamber Requirements
Figure 1
1.5 Check equipment dimensions to ensure that they are within the
dimensions shown in Figures 1 and 2. Critical dimensions include
shaft or sleeve OD (A), a chamber depth of at least dimension (G),
minimum and maximum seal housing bore (C), and the minimum
distance to the first obstruction (K). See Figure 2.
1.6 Check gland bolting to ensure that bolt diameter (M) and bolt
circle diameter (L) conform to the dimensions shown in Figure 2.
1.7 Handle the 86/87 with care, it is manufactured to precise
tolerances. The sealing faces of the stationary and rotating face
are of special importance. They are lapped flat to within three light
bands (34.8 millionths of an inch). Keep the sealing faces perfectly
clean at all times.
