LabTecta 66

LabTecta 66

Eliminate over 50% of bearing failures with the LabTecta IP66 certified bearing protector: a true non-contacting labyrinth design with a shut-off design that really works.

Features:

  • Verification Tested contacting and also non-contacting bearing seal designs
  • Proven to increase equipment reliability in pumps, electric motors, fans, pillow blocks, steam turbines and also gearboxes
  • IP66 certified designs that conform to IEEE Std. 841-2009
  • Also No shaft wear. Retro fittable on shafts previously worn by lip seals
  • Easily rebuildable with no special tools, chemicals or equipment

Bearing Protection

The most cost effective reliability upgrade for your equipment

The LabTecta 66 range can eliminate the cause of 52% of your bearing failures.
Through its dynamic lift technology, it allows the equipment to breathe when
running, but is perfectly sealed when the equipment isn’t running,
preventing the ingress of contaminants.

Application specific designs(LabTecta 66)

LabTecta 66 can be used to upgrade applications that are used in difficult locations, or are prone to premature bearing failure.

Steam turbines (LabTecta 66ST)
Axial movement (LabTecta 66AX)
Oil flooded applications (LabTecta 66FS)
Split-seal designs for easier installation (LabTecta 66RDS)
Pillow blocks (LabTecta 66PB)
Inboard / outboard air purge for difficult environments (LabTecta 66IAP / LabTecta 66OAP).

Reducing Bearing Failure

52% of Bearing failures are due to contamination of the bearing oil*.
This represents 20.8% of all rotating equipment failures

A major study into equipment reliability has shown 48% of all bearing failures are due to particle contamination of the bearing oil, with an additional 4% due to corrosion caused by contamination of the bearing oil.

 

 

Reducing Water Contamination

Research conducted by a major academic institution has shown that water contamination as low as 0.002% (20ppm) in some oils can reduce bearing life by as much as 48% LabTecta 66 reduces bearing failure by:
Preventing water ingress
Also Preventing dust ingress
Eliminating shaft damage due to rubbing
