Only 3 Things You Need to Know to use high-speed and high-pressure rotary joint
In the realm of industrial mechanics, the high-speed and high-pressure rotary joint stands as a critical component, enabling the seamless transfer of fluids or gases between stationary and rotating systems. Whether in manufacturing, energy production, or aerospace, mastering the use of these joints is essential for ensuring operational efficiency and safety.
In the field of deep hole processing and purification equipment, there is a large demand for high-speed and high-pressure rotary joints, and the pressure requirements are developing from the common 7-10MPA in the market to 15- 25MPA. This is a joint that can connect or disconnect the pipeline with the help of tools. It is easy to use and has the characteristics of short connection and disconnection times. This blog will delve into the three fundamental aspects you must understand to effectively utilize high-speed and high-pressure rotary joints. If customers want to have a better experience, the following three points must be mastered!
1. Familiar with product usage parameters
When customers purchase our products, they should actively confirm whether the equipment application environment exceeds the maximum allowable speed, pressure, and temperature of the specified model. If the product limit is exceeded, abnormal damage will occur; before the customer uses it, the use parameter range of the specified model product can be checked to avoid non-compliance with the working condition parameters. 
| Speed（Max） | 1500RPM | Temperature（Max） | 85℃ |
| Pressure（Max） | 25MPa | Applicable medium | Water, hydraulic oil |
2. A correct and reasonable installation
Once the appropriate rotary joint selected, proper installation and ongoing maintenance are critical to maximizing its lifespan and performance. Neglecting these aspects can lead to inefficiencies, increased downtime, and costly repairs.
A. According to the different sizes, strictly follow the installation instructions to ensure the installation closed and there are no gaps.
B. Before installing the high-speed rotary joint, all parts must be clean and free of dirt.
C. When installing the static ring and the gland, pay attention to the contact between the rotary joint and the shaft before installing the dynamic ring. The fixing screws should ensure the stability of the gland. The hand-pushing compensation ring can also be compressed and fixed. There are two precision bearings inside the rotary joint, which run smoothly and lastingly, are strong and flexible, have a small friction coefficient, and can run at high speeds.
3. Careful maintenance and care
A. Check the specifications and accuracy of the high-speed and high-pressure rotary joint to ensure the concentricity of the hollow shaft and the rotating body. At the same time, check the radial and axial accuracy of the rotating body itself and repair them in time to avoid wear. You can install filters on the equipment to prevent dirt from entering the friction surface and causing wear.
B. Replace seals frequently. For rotary joints running on the rotating body, check the wear of the seals regularly to avoid damage caused by seal wear.
C. Finally, inject lubricating oil reasonably and regularly. If necessary, it is recommended to communicate with the manufacturer and send professionals for maintenance or return to the factory for maintenance regularly.
Conclusion
In summary, effectively using high-speed and high-pressure rotary joints hinges on three core pillars: precise selection, meticulous installation and maintenance, and proactive troubleshooting.
Remember, the longevity and performance of a rotary joint are direct reflections of the care invest in its selection, installation, and upkeep. Whether in heavy industry, energy production, or advanced manufacturing, adhering to these principles ensures optimal functionality, reduces operational risks, and maximizes return on investment. For further insights or customized solutions, engage with industry experts and stay abreast of technological advancements in rotary joint engineering.
By prioritizing these three essential aspects, you can transform a potentially problematic component into a reliable workhorse of your industrial system, driving efficiency, safety, and long-term success.
