3.4.1 Mechanical Seal (100)
3.4.1.1 Disassembly
A new balance type single seal (100) is incorporated into V-Series compressors. A combination hard
metal and carbon alloy is used for the frictional surface of the seal and an O-ring is provided for
packing.
As shown in Fig. 22, the balance type mechanical seal functions well under a wide range of
conditions.
An oil seal (50) is fitted to the inside of the seal to act as an oil retainer. Because the frictional portion
of the seal is subject to wear due to the rapid rotation of the shaft, a collar (109) is provided for the
friction portion on models 200~250 so that the friction portion can be replaced.
