Sealing Ring 104743

Sealing Ring (Part No.  104743)

The sealing ring 104743 is a critical sealing component within the Jenbacher gas engine. Its primary function is to create a reliable, leak-proof barrier between two mating surfaces, such as within the fuel, oil, or cooling systems.

Function: Its core purpose is to prevent the unwanted exchange of fluids (e.g., oil, fuel, coolant) or gases. By maintaining system integrity, it ensures optimal engine performance, prevents contamination, protects other components from damage, and contributes to overall operational safety and efficiency. It helps maintain proper pressure levels within various engine compartments.

Usage & Handling: This part is strictly a replacement item installed during engine maintenance or overhaul. It is not adjustable or reusable. Correct installation is crucial and involves:

Ensuring the housing and shaft surfaces are clean, smooth, and free of old seal material.

Carefully fitting the ring into its designated groove without twisting or over-stretching.

Following the manufacturer's specified torque procedures for the associated fasteners or housings.

In summary, sealing ring 104743 is a vital wear part that safeguards engine systems by providing a static or dynamic seal. Its proper application is essential for preventing leaks and ensuring the engine's reliable and long-lasting operation.
