Atlas Copco Lip Seal Replacement 1604038300

Atlas Copco Lip Seal Replacement 1604038300

The Atlas Copco 1604038300 is identified in Atlas Copco parts documentation as a SEAL (OIL SEPARATOR). It is used as part of the oil separator assembly and provides sealing between related components in the separator system. Atlas Copco parts lists show the 1604 0383 00 seal used with oil separator assemblies and, in some configurations, supplied in quantities of two.

Function of the 1604038300 Seal

The oil separator is an important part of an oil-injected compressor’s air/oil separation system. The 1604038300 seal works at the separator assembly to maintain the required sealing interface between mating components.

A properly sealing interface helps prevent unwanted oil or air leakage around the separator assembly. Atlas Copco documentation places this part directly within oil separator assemblies alongside the oil separator element, retainer, pressure vessel and associated tubing.

This makes the seal a small component with an important role in maintaining the integrity of the complete separator assembly.

When Should the Seal Be Replaced?

A seal should normally be inspected whenever the oil separator assembly is opened for service.

Replacement may be appropriate when you find:

• Oil leakage around the separator assembly
• Visible deformation or deterioration of the seal
• Hardening or loss of elasticity
• Cuts, cracks or damaged sealing surfaces
• Evidence of leakage after separator servicing
• A seal that has been removed and is no longer suitable for reuse

For maintenance work, replacing the sealing component at the same time as related separator service can help avoid reopening the assembly because of a subsequent sealing problem.
