ower management company Eaton – now a half of Danfoss Power Solutions (Sealing Technology, September 2021, web page 2) – lately expanded its product portfolio with the addition of the sturdy WALRINGplus gentle seal slicing ring system, optimised for thin-wall tubing.
Featuring a two-edge cutting ring, with additional gentle sealing for each potential leak paths, this tube fitting system permits easy, protected and repeatable assembly and dependable, leak-free operations.
It is designed to meet demanding necessities, involving hydraulic tube becoming in purposes including use in agriculture, development, industrial autos, discrete manufacturing, rail transportation and different industries.
It is suitable to be used with thin-walled tubes and, due to this fact, helps environment friendly weight and gasoline reduction of cell equipment and moving elements of stationary machinery.
Correct meeting is essential to tube fitting efficiency and WALRINGplus is designed to prevent extreme or inadequate tightening. A clear block-stop perform provides a tangible torque enhance when the tip of an assembly is reached, so no torque or distance measurement is required.
In pressure gauge , a significantly decrease force is required to pull the cutting ring over the tube – making assembly easier, quicker and safer, whilst decreasing the chance of harm to the delicate seal. The O-ring groove position also allows frequent reassembly, without affecting efficiency.
To eliminate the risk of leaks that may create expensive damage and downtime, WALRINGplus additionally addresses their frequent root causes.
Soft sealing prevents leakages if: tubes or studs are slightly scratched, the fluid temperature fluctuates or the retention force is reduced. Problems caused by low assembly torque also could be identified before the cutting ring is pulled from the tube – decreasing the risk of a catastrophic failure in software.
The bespoke M-R7 machine further reduces assembly time and the effort required for WALRINGplus in addition to the risk of leaks. By automating the process of cutting-ring meeting and tube-forming, this machine helps ensure optimum system efficiency whilst also reducing the required torque and rotrotation.
Specifications of WALRINGplus: • steel chopping ring with Viton O-rings; • for tube sizes 6–42 mm; • complies with ISO 8434-1; • excessive burst-pressure exceeding 4:1 safety factor; • working pressure up to 500 bar (L-series) and 800 bar (S-series); and • supports dry assembly with metal parts.
