Multiplier Factors
Example for Determining Pressure Rating Limits:
Multiplier
Selection Considerations Factor Seal: 50.8mm/2" Diameter Type 5615
Product: Aqueous Solution
Sealed Fluid Petrol/Gasoline, Kerosene, or Better x 1.00 Face Materials: Silicon Carbide vs. Silicon Carbide
Lubricity Water and Aqueous Solutions x 0.75 Operating Temperature: 90°C/194°F
Light Hydrocarbons - x 0.60 Using the Pressure Rating Limits graph, the
(Specific Gravity ≤0.65), etc. maximum pressure would be 21 bar g/300 psig.

Sealed Fluid Up to 80°C/175°F x 1.00 From the Multiplier Factors chart, apply the multipliers
Temperature Above 80°C to 120°C/175°F to 250°F x 0.90 for the specific service requirements to determine the
Above 120°C to 180°C/250°F to 355°F x 0.80 maximum operating pressure for the application:
Above 180°C/350°F x 0.65 21 bar g/300 psig x 0.75 x 0.90 = 14 bar g/203 psig
The maximum operating pressure for this 50.8mm/2"
Type 5615 is 14 bar g/203 psig.

Application Criteria
The Type 5615 and 5615Q Cartridge seals may be customized for specific installations after review and evaluation
by John Crane Engineering. The following data is needed to evaluate the proposed service:
■ Make and Model of Equipment ■ Process Fluid
■ Shaft or Sleeve OD • Specific Gravity
■ Direction of Shaft Rotation Viewed • Box Pressure
from Drive End • Vapor Pressure
■ Seal Cavity Dimensions • Temperature
• Viscosity
■ Speed
■ Quench Fluid (if applicable)
