4 A new approach in sealing hydraulic applications The new Simrit sealing solutions for standard installation spaces in hydraulic cylinders combines efficiency and optimal function. Variety can also be counterproductive: The large number of sealing geometries up to now hindered a cost-effective and efficient standardisation. Moreover, optimal matching to the respective application conditions was not given. Simple installation High availability Reduction of complexity for procurement 4

5 Less is often more Simrit makes it simple for you: Standardised seals and guides for secure sealing of hydraulic cylinders. Through the standardisation of the installation space and an exactly matched product programme of sealing components and guides, Simrit makes a highly efficient sealing concept for virtually all operating conditions available to you. Separate sealing and guide elements, together with the use of less materials with increased application spectrum capabilities, allows the speedy selection of optimal sealing solutions and a more efficient cylinder construction process. Your advantages at a glance: Requirement-driven customisation Excellent price/performance ratio through requirementdriven customisation of material and geometry. No over engineering. High efficiency Optimum efficiency reduction of the required range of sealing and guide elements. Simple construction A more simple and economical cylinder construction. The following selection shows only a part of our programme. We can gladly prepare an individual standard concept for you. 5

10 The Simrit hydraulic programme unique in technology and diversity With the help of the Merkel product range, even extreme operating conditions can be securely controlled. Specially developed products are available for virtually every application case. Rod seal LF 300 for installation spaces according to ISO 5597/1 With the help of the LF 300, the friction of conventional sealing systems can be reduced by up to 30%. The reason for this is the special design of the dynamic sliding surface. Due to the very favourable stick-slip properties, the seal is extremely suitable for positioning procedures (e.g. materials handling applications). HDR-2C for installation spaces according to ISO 5597/1 By combining two high-performance materials, this new rod seal s performance limits for hydraulic cylinders were improved substantially. HDR-2C can also be used reliably under higher operational loads, even for larger gap widths and applications in a temperature range between 40 C and 110 C. The HDR- 2C also gives you the possibility to implement extremely cost effective construction designs. Piston seal T 18 for installation spaces according to ISO 5597/1 The piston seal T 18 is suitable for applications where even minimal drift movement is not acceptable (e.g. support cylinders, bucket lifters, cherry pickers). Through the pressure relief, a back-to-back configuration is possible thus achieving the highest possible tightness. Wiper PU 5, AU AS/R, PU 11 for installation spaces according to ISO 6195 Universally applicable wipers proven a million times over afford the cylinder design engineer the greatest design possibilities. Wide product range Over 150 additional series with over 25,000 dimensions are available for nearly all hydraulic applications.
