The PSS Shaft Seal is also recognized as the premiere retrofit (aftermarket) seal on the world market. Certified by Bureau Veritas, ABS & Rina: Boat builders / yards recognize the advantages and value of installing the PSS as it eliminates the maintenance, constant adjustment & cost associated with traditional packing type glands. Aside from these benefits, the PSS Shaft Seal helps to eliminate water in the bilge (100% water tight) & wear to the propeller shaft. The PSS Shaft Seal can be easily retrofitted and is available for shafts ranging from 3/4" (20mm) to 6" (150mm). The PSS Shaft Seal is a mechanical face seal that is created between the flat surfaces of the rotating stainless steel rotor and the stationary carbon flange. The stationary carbon flange is attached to the vessels stern tube with hose clamps and the carbon flange is attached to the front side of the bellows with hose clamps. The stainless steel rotor is fit on the shaft in front of the carbon flange. The stainless steel rotor is used to compress the bellows before the collar is secured to the shaft with set-screws. This compression (pre-load) maintains contact between the faces and allows the PSS to compensate for the thrust from the propeller. The carbon flange is bored larger than the shaft diameter allowing it to "float" around the shaft and thus compensate for most misalignment and vibration problems. The stainless steel collar is sealed to the shaft by two o-rings that are recessed into the bore of the collar. These o-rings rotate with the shaft and stainless steel rotor and do not experience wear during operation. **As with any rubber hose below waterline, the PSS bellows must be inspected on a regular basis for any sign of wear, aging or chemical deterioration. PYI suggests as preventative maintenance that the PSS bellow be replaced in six year intervals. During bellows replacement it is recommended the o-rings & set screws in the stainless steel rotor also be replaced." Bellows may need to be more frequently inspected in an environment where non-sealed batteries emit sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid vapor will accelerate rubber deterioration, as will an ozonater.

Hose Barb Plug This is a plug for the PSS Shaft Seal hose barb. If your boat will not exceed 10 knots under power, then the PSS Shaft Seal does not require positive water feed. The PSS Shaft Seal can simply be "vented", or you can use this plug-in in place of the hose barb that's inserted into the carbon stator. "Burping" the PSS Shaft Seal You will also be required to "burp" the PSS Shaft Seal whenever there is air trapped inside. Simply pull back on the carbon stator, separating it from the stainless-steel rotor. This will cause a quick mist of water to spray out. Important If your boat will exceed 10 knots under power, then it is required that a positive water supply be plumbed to the PSS Shaft Seal for the purpose of lubricating and cooling the seal faces.

Maintenance Kit for 30mm Shaft & 1-3/4" Stern Tube As with any rubber or silicone hose below the waterline, the PSS bellows must be inspected regularly for any signs of wear, aging, or chemical deterioration. PYI recommends that the bellows be replaced once every 6 years. During the bellows replacement, it is also recommended that the O-rings and set screws be replaced, as well as the hose clamps. PYI includes all the necessary replacement parts in the PSS Maintenance Kit. What's Included: Bellows (1)  Nitrile O-rings (2)  Set screws (5)  Hose clamps (4)  Tube of Thread Lock (1)  Allen key (1) Dimensions: Shaft Diameter: 30mm  Stern Tube Diameter: 1-3/4 in. to 1-7/8 in. What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the PSS Shaft Seal? PYI recommends that the bellows be replaced once every 6 years. During the bellows replacement, it is also recommended that the O-rings and set screws in the stainless steel rotor be replaced and the hose clamps. Under most circumstances, the carbon stator and the stainless steel rotor will not need to be replaced.

PRO Shaft Seal 2" Shaft & 3" Tube The PSS PRO Shaft Seal is a mechanical face seal utilizing our proven stainless steel and carbon sealing components but adds reinforced silicone bellows, a secondary shaft retention collar, 316 Stainless Steel hose clamps (rolled edges and non-perforated), and an optional Nitronic 50 rotor upgrade (for highly corrosive environments). Designed specifically for applications that will require increased durability and resistance to harsh, corrosive, high pressure, and otherwise demanding environments. The PSS PRO Shaft Seal is a specialized mechanical seal suitable for various applications, with unmatched performance. As with PSS Type A & B Seals, The PRO Shaft Seal is a mechanical face seal. The sealing surface is created between the flat surfaces of the rotating stainless-steel rotor and the stationary carbon flange. The stationary carbon flange is attached to a heavy-duty silicone bellows attached to the vessel’s stern tube (shaft log), with 316SS hose clamps. The stainless-steel rotor is fitted on the shaft in front of the carbon flange and is used to compress the bellows, the rotor is then secured to the shaft with set screws, and the shaft retention collar is installed. This compression (pre-load) maintains constant contact between the two mating faces of the stainless-steel rotor and carbon flange, allowing the PSS to compensate for the variable axial movement due to propeller thrust. In addition, the carbon flange is over-bored to the shaft diameter allowing it to "float" around the shaft and thus compensate for most misalignment and vibration from the drive-line. The stainless-steel rotor is sealed to the shaft by two O-rings recessed into the rotor's bore. These O-rings rotate with the shaft and the stainless-steel rotor and therefore do not experience wear during operation.
