Pre-Loading by Axially Acting SpringBased on experience, the specific surface compression of both springs should be between 0.2 and 0.4 N/mm2. With the slightly stiffer type HN 7001 it may be necessary to increase preload to 0.8 N/mm2.
Fitting Instructions
Always install packings with sealing lips facing towards the pressure side
Spring is normally installed on the pressure
side of the packing
In case of aggressive media and installation
of the spring on the pressureless side, spring
compression must be adapted to the maximum
media pressure which might be generated
Prior to fitting, the installation space of the
packing must be cleaned from dirt, swarf, etc.
Rod and housing bore must be provided with
lead-in chamfers between 15° and 30° to
avoid damaging the sealing edges
