3. Pressure Maintenance Maintaining hydraulic pressure is essential for the efficient operation of hydraulic machinery. Seals help retain the pressure within the system, allowing for effective transference of power and improving overall efficiency.
The design of an oil seal can vary, but most consist of a flexible sealing lip that makes contact with the motor shaft or housing. This contact creates a tight seal, preventing leakage. Additional features such as springs may be included to enhance the sealing effect and compensate for any wear that may occur over time.
