Maintenance Tips
-
Periodically inspect the seal area for oil seepage, stains, or external leaks—early detection helps prevent pump damage.
-
Ensure the mating shaft or bore is clean and free of corrosion, pitting or scoring before installing the new seal.
-
When installing, use a proper driver or sleeve and apply even pressure so the seal lip seats squarely and the spring is intact.
-
Lubricate the seal lip with a film of compatible system oil before first startup to reduce dry run wear.
-
Maintain fluid cleanliness and proper system pressure—contaminants or high back‑pressure can cause premature seal failure.
-
Store unused seals in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and ozone sources (motors, compressors) to prevent elastomer deterioration.
