Design:

The Claron style CPS is a symmetrical profiled semi-solid seal designed for narrow section rod sealing and manufactured in a high performance grade of polyurethane. The sealing lips are machine trimmed to ensure dimensional consistency and good low pressure sealing whilst polyurethane exhibits outstanding abrasion and extrusion resistance providing a rod seal with a consistent operating performance.

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 80°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:

For the seal to function correctly, it is important that care be taken in fitting the seal within its housing. For a detailed checklist, refer to Appendix 3.
