For this decision, we will have to consider what
medium will run through the rotary joint. This
could be air, water, oil, steam, coolant, or
even any mixture of these. The compatibility of
joint materials relative to the medium is vital.
Medium
Is medium used within the operating temperature
range? The limitations of rotary joints are borne
out of the fact that they cannot cope with
maximum and minimum temperatures.
Temperature
To what extent will the total pressure deviate
from normal? The pressure rating of the joint
should always exceed the operating pressure.
Pressure
How many revolutions per second of the rotary
joint will be there? Each hinge quotes its
maximum speed based on its construction and
design.

Number of Passages
What quantity of media flow can you afford for
one single journey? Single-pass joints best fit
basic functions, while multi-pass joints
are perfect for more complicated projects when
there is a need to transfer fluids or gases
simultaneously.
Space Constraints
How much space is there at the position where a
rotary joint needs to be installed? Lateral and
in-line options are important, especially when
the application needs to be very close.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
The selection of seal-cage type is a major factor
regarding performance and operation cost. For
example, double-sided and single-sided seals with
balanced, unbalanced, or double-sided magnetic
fields are suitable for specific pressure and
temperature requirements.
Seal Type
The materials employed in the joint construction
should be capable of standing up to the medium
and the working conditions. As a rule, stainless
steel is the most widespread material, but for
particular instances, materials such as Hastelloy
or incontinent might be needed.
