8000-series-endura-dsf Frequently Asked Questions
The Endura™ DSF is specifically designed for loading arms handling hazardous fluids such as acids, solvents, petrochemicals, and other toxic products.
The swivel incorporates a primary seal, backup seal, and environmental seal, providing three levels of protection against product leakage and emissions.
If the primary seal experiences wear or leakage, product is directed to the leak detection port, allowing operators to identify issues before a secondary seal is compromised.
For critical applications, inert gas can be introduced through the purge port at a pressure higher than the product pressure to help prevent fugitive emissions.
The split flange design provides direct access to seals without removing ball bearings, reducing maintenance time and minimizing downtime.
