Differentially Pumped Rotary Seals

Differentially pumped rotary seals provide 360º of continuous rotation through the vacuum wall of a UHV system. They have two stages of differential pumping isolated by graphite-impregnated, expanded, Teflon seals on special sealing surfaces.  A pre-loaded ball bearing set accurately controls the rotating stage position, allowing the unit to be successfully used with manipulators and other precision positioning devices.  For easier and more accurate angle adjustment, a worm drive fine adjust option is available. Rotary seals are also available with an anti-backlash stepping or synchronous motor drive. Sizes up to 4 inch (101.6mm) ID are standard, while larger sizes are available on request.
