Simplex Airspace sterntube seal: functional principle | SKF Marine

Simplex seals have been setting standards in the shipping industry for over 70 years and remain at the cutting edge of sterntube seal technology. This video shows the functional principle of the Simplex Airspace sterntube seal. As it is classified as a non-oil-to-sea interface, it helps ship operators achieve VGP compliance with no need for environmentally acceptable lubricant (EAL) adaptations.
The Simplex Airspace enables perfect separation of seawater and oil-preventing oil from leaking into the sea and protecting against ingress of seawater into the sterntube. It is a “non-pollution” sterntube seal, certified by all major classification societies. Not only is it an environmentally friendly solution, but it also offers excellent long-term performance and reliability with an additional automatic emergency backup seal system.
