About Shaft Seals

A shaft seal is recommended if the motor shaft and end bell are exposed to significant amounts of
containments, such as oil, fluids, or fine dust. Use a shaft seal in these environments to prolong
the life of the motor. A shaft seal and Bulletin 2090 cables with environmentally sealed
connectors are required for an IP65 rating or greater.

See Kinetix® Motion Accessories Specifications Technical Data, publication KNX-TD004
find Bulletin 2090 cables with environmentally sealed connectors for your motor.

IMPORTANT The shaft seal is not required in applications where the motor shaft and end bell are free of oil,

fluids, or fine dust, and a lower IP rating is sufficient.

Shaft seals are subject to wear and require periodic inspection and replacement. Replacement
is recommended every 3 months, not to exceed 12 months, depending on use.

If you paint the motor, do not get paint on the shaft seal area or the shaft, as paint can decrease
the life of the shaft seal.

Required Tools

Use these tools to install a shaft seal:

• Insulated, small, flat-head screw driver

• Rubber/wooden mallet or a metal hammer and wooden work piece

• Socket, pipe, or tube (various sizes)

• Abrasive cloth to remove any nicks or burrs from the motor shaft

Required Supplies

Lubricant - Grease, industrial grade, suitable for applications with speeds up to 6000 RPM, and
–10…+80 °C (14…176 °F) temperature range.

Do not re move screws.

Do not pry against
front-end bell or shaft.

Remove the Shaft Seal

ATTENTION: To avoid injury or damage to the equipment, remove power from the motor before

removing the shaft seal.

Follow these steps to remove the shaft seal.

1. Remove power to the motor before removing the shaft seal.

2. Remove the shaft key (if present) from the motor shaft.

3. Remove old seal.

Place the insulated screw driver on the inside diameter of the shaft seal outer lip as
shown. Carefully lift the seal, work your way around the seal lift a little at a time. When
you can grasp the seal, slightly rotate it while pulling it out of the front-end bell.

ATT EN TI ON : Avoid damage to the motor. Do not pry against front-end bell or shaft.

ATTENTION: Do not hammer the shaft or body of the motor when changing the shaft seal.

4. Inspect and clean the shaft and seal surfaces as necessary.

Use an abrasive cloth to remove any nicks or burrs from the motor shaft.

Replace the Shaft Seal

Follow these steps to replace the shaft seal.

1. Apply tape to the keyway so the edges do not damage the seal lip.

IMPORTANT Cover the sharp edges of the keyway with tape to protect the shaft seal lip from

damage.

2. Lubricate the motor shaft and the inner and outer lip of the shaft seal.

IMPORTANT Shaft seals require a lubricant to reduce wear. Lubricate only the inner and outer lip

of the shaft seal. Do not lubricate the motor bore or outside diameter of the seal.

3. Center the shaft seal on the mounting surface of the motor and slide the shaft seal evenly
onto the motor shaft.

See Shaft Seal Installation Clearances
the shaft seal you are installing.

4. Press the shaft seal into the seal bore by applying one of the Shaft Seal Installation

Methods on page 6.

5. Visually inspect for irregularities in the shaft seal or an uneven alignment where the shaft
seal contacts the motor.

Verify that the outer and inner circumference of the shaft seal is fully seated into
position.

6. Verify that the shaft seal is installed to the correct installation clearance.

• If the shaft seal is installed too deep, it can become subject to excessive wear and

require frequent replacement.

• If the shaft seal is installed too shallow, it can reduce the effectiveness of the

protective seal.

7. Replace the shaft key.

Applies to motors that include a keyed shaft.

Shaft Seal Installation Methods

ATT EN TI ON : Do not hammer directly on the shaft seal. Gently tap the socket, pipe, or tube evenly

around the outer edge of the shaft seal until the shaft seal is pressed into place. Make sure the
socket, pipe, or tube you use does not contact the shaft seal lip. Permanent damage to the shaft
seal can occur.
