Cause:
- Deterioration in the packing.
- Scaling on the packing.
- Using a highly permeable cutting oil.
- An environment that exceeds the IP functionality.
Measures:
- In a mist environment, pull off and replace the packing every time the cover is removed.
- If a highly permeable cutting fluid is being used, or in an environment that exceeds the IP functionality, purge the air and take measures on the jacket.
