This standard BS ISO 6194-3:2009 Rotary shaft lip-type seals incorporating elastomeric sealing elements is classified in these ICS categories:

• 23.100.60 Filters, seals and contamination of fluids
• 21.140 Seals, glands
• 83.140.50 Seals

This part of ISO 6194 describes seals utilizing elastomeric sealing elements. They are considered suitable for use under low-pressure conditions; see ISO 6194-1:2007, 6.1.

This part of ISO 6194 gives users of lip-type seals requirements and guidance on the careful storage, handling and proper installation of rotary shaft lip-type seals; attention is drawn to the hazards involved and ways of avoiding them.

NOTE ISO 6194 (all parts) is complementary to ISO 16589 (all parts), which covers seals incorporating thermoplastic sealing elements.
