Food Processing Seals Product Types Specification
| Product | Product Description |
| D1P | D1P As its standard recommended offering for dosing pistons, D1P is a highly cleanable seal that offers precision sealing performance and a stable fit in the piston housing. Due to the elastomeric material characteristic, it is a self-energizing solution and easy to snap into closed piston housings. Featuring a thermoplastic elastomer sealing lip and an optimized design, D1P seals are capable of speeds up to 0,5 m/s and can handle pressures up to 10 bar. The seals can be installed back-to-back, or in standalone set-ups with low vacuum values during the recharge stroke. |
| H1R | H1R This specially designed packing set for homogenizers prevents contaminants from entering into the packing while maintaining high-pressure loads up to 1 500 bar and speeds up to 0,3 m/s (higher speeds at lower pressures possible). Offering a performance upgrade over conventional elastomer chevron style seal assemblies, H1R features a combination of materials to withstand abrasive, potentially non-lubricating products. H1R seals are installed in multiple-piece housings and are typically compressed with a spring. |
| D2P | D2P This meander spring-energized thermoplastic lip seal is filled with silicone to keep contaminants out of the spring cavity. D2P seals are suitable for pressures up to 10 bar and speeds up to 1,5 m/s*, plus a range of abrasive products. The seals are very easy to clean and are installed in two-piece housings so that the static lip can be axially compressed to eliminate dead spots. When PTFE materials are used, D2P seals will resist high temperatures. |
