Floating Seal Installing Tools

Duo cone seal installer tool and suitable installation procedure are highly
recommended for series production and maintenance work. Installation process
has a significant impact on seal performance, and diameters up to 1105mm
installation tools are available for different mechanical face seals.

Before installation, arrange a cleaned seal, o-ring & housing and free from any
mechanical damage and dent. Cleaning the seal using lint free wipe and ensure
the seal face be thoroughly cleaned and no fine particles of dust should remain
on it.

Place the o-ring on the metal seal ring at the bottom of the seal ring ramp and
against the bottom of the seal ring ramp and against the retaining lip and then
check it is properly sleeved. Make sure the o-rings are straight on the rim and
not twist or squeeze.

Engage the lip of the duo cone seal installation tool between the gap of o-ring
and seal face inside the circular guide way groove of the tool, and bring the
edges of clamp close to each other.

Press the seal ring into the housing like a snap fastener, and press the
fixture with even load on the guide plate. Small rings can be manually fixed,
however for big rings apply even and gentle pressure around the rim of guide
plate using wooden mallet.

Ensure that afterwards the housing face is parallel to the seal face, and o-
rings must not undulate in the housing bore or kink and bulge out of the bore.
Ensure the clearance between the seal ring housing bores with FUYOTE engineer.

Do not use sharp instruments in floating seal installation. Inappropriate tool
cause irreversible damage of metal ring's sealing face. Because mechanical face
seals are high precision product, especially the contact band, tools must be
used in installation. We recommend the use of installation tools to ensure a
proper installation of o-rings. If improperly installed, twist on o-rings might
lead to uneven stress and creep down from the metal ring. Eventually cause
early failure.

Keep the floating seal in the original packaging until installation, in case
dust will get inside the seal before installation. Fine-finished seal faces of
the metal seal rings and the o-rings need to be carefully protected from damage
and contamination.

The seal housing which contact the rubber o-rings need to be clean and free
from machining debris before installation. This should be done using a lint
free wipe. Remove the foreign material from the o-rings, ramps and the lips of
both seal rings.

Use alcohol to clean the parts instead of any other oil that leaves oil film or
do not evaporates. Only use lint free wipes or cloths, and never use tissue
paper or cotton waste.

O-rings cannot be used with blow holes or damages. And also cannot be twisted
inside housing.

Do not use sharp tools to locate o-rings and hammer on sealing surface.

Check for sealing edge free from dirt, dust, and hair. Keep the sealing surface
clean thoroughly before installation, and never allow sealing surface be dirty,
keep it be cleaned well before assembly.

After compete the final assembly of the unit, make sure both seals are in the
correct hosing position, due to high impact can scratch or break the seal
components. A new set will have to be installed even the wear limit is not yet
reached, when the seal set is taken apart in the course of repairs.
