Rotary Shaft Seal Selection Handbook for Pressure-Equalized, Deep-Ocean Equipment

Abstract

The various considerations involved in the selection and application of off-the-shelf seal configurations to the rotating shafts on pressure- compensated deep ocean equipment are discussed. Seal performance data from deep- ocean electric propulsion motor tests and seal screening tests are included to give the seal user an understanding of the level of performance obtainable from an off-the-shelf seal. The handbook will be revised to include additional seal performance data to be available from a laboratory investigation of representative rotating shaft seals now under way.
