OverviewThe DSTI HPS Series 6-passage rotary unions provide six independent fluid passages in a single rotating assembly. Designed for medium-pressure service with specialized sealing capable of up to 20,000 PSI [1,375 BAR], these all-stainless-steel units are suitable for harsh marine and offshore environments. HPS 6-passage models include medium-pressure housing connections and O-ring gland shaft connections. DSTI offers application-specific modifications for mounting, connections, sealing systems, and housing/shaft dimensions to meet project requirements.

Notes- All technical values depend on application parameters; operational life depends on rotational speed and duty cycle.
- Applications with operating temperatures above 220°F (105°C) or water media above 212°F (100°C) require alternative seal materials.
- *Minimum torque value shown is the torque required to rotate at zero pressure with Oil/Hydraulic media (or Air/Gas for SPS). Required torque may be greater for different media or dry running.
