Product catalog summary
Introduction
This document discusses the advancements in electric storage and motor technology, particularly focusing on eVTOL (Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing vehicles). These vehicles offer quieter flights and zero emissions, contributing positively to the environment.

Challenge
The environmental control system (ECS) in eVTOLs requires the fan shaft to rotate at variable, often high speeds. Bearings supporting the shaft need protection from environmental factors like dust, sand, and salt spray. A reliable seal is crucial to prevent leakage and contamination, ensuring the long lifespan of components.

Solution
Omniseal Solutions™ provides polymer rotary lip seals designed to protect propeller bearings from environmental pollutants. These seals offer high durability and can operate without a dedicated oil cooling system, allowing for dry running.

Specifications
  • Product: Omniseal® Polymer Rotary Lip Seal, Series 31
  • Application Area: Propellers in ECS
  • Material: High-Performance Polymer Material A27
  • Media: Jet Oil
  • Temperature Range: -51°C to 120°C (-60°F to 250°F)
  • Speed: Up to 12 m/s, with potential for higher speeds
  • Counter Face: Chromium hardened shaft
  • Rotation Speed: 12000 RPM

Benefits
The compact design of the seals simplifies integration and reduces overall weight. The low coefficient of friction and wear rate at high speeds enhance the seal's durability and efficiency.

Design Expertise
Omniseal Solutions™ has over 65 years of experience in designing precision sealing solutions for demanding environments, continually pushing the boundaries of what is possible.

Evtol Propeller Bearings-3

Omniseal Solutions™ designs polymer, rotary lip seals that are used on propeller systems in order to protect bearings from environmental pollution (salt spray, sand, dust, etc.), with high surface speed and very high durability. Our custom design of an adapted jacket enhances the very long durability required for this kind of demanding application. Because of their low coefficient of friction and low wear rate at high rotary speed, our rotary lip seals can run without a dedicated oil cooling system, simplifying the overall process and providing the ability to run dry for a good amount of time....
