6 Use
Type A or AS seals are capable of providing a fluid-tight fit suitable for all o perating temperatures and housing
materials with differing coefficients of linear thermal expansion.
The advantage of the minor lip on type AS seals is that it prevents the ingress of contaminants. In order to reduce
wear, the space between the sealing lip and minor lip shall be filled with a suitable lubricant so as to increase
the resistance of shafts to corrosion. The lubricant used shall be compatible with the base elastomer; both the
elastomer and the lubricant shall be chemically resistant to the fluids present in the shaft assembly.
Limits for the operating conditions (e.g. fluid pressure, shaft speed, chemical and thermal resistance of the
elastomere used) are given in subclauses 6.1 and 6.2. If all of these limits will be reached simultaneously, or
if individual limits will be exceeded, the seal manufacturer should be consulted (cf. annexes A and B).
