Design:

Claron Style PEO is designed for use as a single acting piston seal. The seal is a precision moulded Nitrile rubber sealing element with a bonded reinforced fabric base and an acetal back up ring to resist extrusion. The acetal back up ring allows larger clearances and higher pressures. The seal is designed with initial radial interference to effect low pressure sealing. At higher pressures the seal is energised thus increasing sealing . The rubberised fabric header has the advantage of retaining fluid within its surface thus reducing both friction and wear. Style PEO is an effective seal over a wide range of applications.

Operating conditions:

These range perameters are Maximum simultaneous conditions. Optimum service conditions are affected by temperature,

speed, pressure, surface finish and extrusion gaps. Refer to Appendix 1 for further information.

Note: Clearance gap F is the maximum permissable. i.e. gap completely on one side, in the temperature range of -30°C to 100°C The use of a suitably selected Claron bearing ring will effectively reduce the clearance gap F max. to a value closer to F/2 thus increasing the pressure capability of the seal.

Housing:

For surface finish and recommended lead in chamfers refer to the illustration below. For housing dimensions and machining tolerances refer to the catalogue page of selected seal. Refer to Appendix 4 for value of tolerance symbols.

Fitting:

Style PEO is designed to be fitted onto a split piston, and may be used with a Claron Style PSR retainer. For the seal to function correctly, it is important that care be taken in fitting the seal within its housing.
