General Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions For Aerovent Products
Shaft Seals
Teflon Wear Plate
Standard Shaft Seal
A Viton shaft seal can be added to the housing as an option
and should be specified when the fan is used for handling
dirty, wet or corrosive air. This seal is suitable for operation
up to 300°F. It should also be noted that this seal minimizes
leakage; it does not make the installation gas tight.
Check Seal & Spare
(Axial fans may not allow
room for installation of
spare seal.)
Bearing Housing
Standard High Temperature Seal
This seal is suitable for operation up to 600°F; however, like
the standard seal, it is designed to limit gas leakage but is not
gas tight.
