SAPO® Seal
Revolutionising Conveyor Pulley Reliability
Our Clients
At DASH Engineering, we understand the critical role conveyor pulleys play in your mining operations. Unfortunately, standard conveyor pulley bearings are plagued by a common enemy: contamination. These failures, often caused by "dirt and water" ingress, result in costly downtime and lost production.The Problem: Ineffective Seals and Unpredictable FailuresTraditional labyrinth and "Taconite Seals" developed in the 1960s simply haven't kept pace with modern demands. These grease-filled labyrinths offer minimal protection against contamination and "multi barrier ideas" combining labyrinth seals with stagnant grease can actually worsen the issue, promoting contamination migration.
Introducing the SAPO® Seal: A Smarter SolutionThe patented SAPO® Seal represents a breakthrough in conveyor pulley bearing reliability. This innovative design addresses the limitations of traditional seals by offering:
- Superior Contamination Protection: The SAPO® Seal effectively blocks the ingress of dirt and water, extending bearing life and reducing downtime.
- Accommodates Misalignment: Unlike all forms of labyrinth seals, the SAPO® Seal adapts to inherent misalignment
- Axial Float Capability: The design allows for axial movement of the bearing, a critical factor in conveyor pulley applications.
- Monitorability & Maintainability: The SAPO® Seal utilises a pressurised closed-oil system for easy monitoring, flushing and oil changes while operational. An endoscope camera can also be integrated to visually verify seal effectiveness.
The Benefits of Switching to SAPO® Seals
By implementing the SAPO® Seal, you can expect:
- Reduced Downtime: Minimise unexpected bearing failures and keep your operations running smoothly.
- Extended Equipment Life: The SAPO® Seal protects bearings, reducing replacements and maintenance costs.
- Improved Efficiency: Optimised bearing performance translates to increased production output.
- Enhanced Safety: Reduced risk of catastrophic bearing failures promotes a safer work environment.
