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 25.4 mm
(1.000 inch), minimum and maximum seal housing bore (B), and
the minimum distance to the first obstruction (F).
1.6 Check gland bolting to ensure that bolt diameter and bolt circle
conform to he dimensions shown in Figure 2.
1.7 Handle the P-50 with care, it is manufactured to precise
tolerances. The stationary and rotating sealing faces are of
special importance. They are lapped flat to within three light
bands (34.8 millionths of an inch). Keep the seal faces perfectly
clean at all times.
