NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard which is identical with IS0 6547 : 1981 ‘Hydraulic fluid power - Cylinders -
Piston seal housings incorporating bearing rings - Dimensions and tolerances’, issued by the
International Organization for Standardization (ISO), was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards
on the recommendations of the Basic Fluid Power Sectional Committee and approval of the
Production Engineering Division Council.

The text of IS0 standard has been approved as suitable for publication as Indian Standard without
deviations, Certain conventions are however not identical with those used in the Indian Standards.
Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they should
be read as ‘Indian Standard’.
b) Comma ( , ) has been used as a decimal marker in the International Standards while in Indian
Standards, the current practice is to use a point ( . ) as the decimal marker.

In the adopted Standard, reference appears to certain International Standards for which Indian
Standards also exist. IS0 3320 has since been revised and published as IS0 3320 : 1987 and is
mentioned in this adopted standard. The corresponding Indian Standards which are to be sub-
stituted in their place are listed below along with their degree of equivalence for the editions indicated:

The technical committee responsible for the preparation of this standard has reviewed the provision
of IS0 4394-l : 1980 ‘Fluid power systems and components - Cylinder - Barrels - Part 1 :
Requirements for steel tubes with specially finished bores’ and has decided that it is for use in
conjunction with this standard.

1.3 It is not the intention of this International Standard to set
forth details of seal design, since the manner of construction of L1 = axial length (seal groove length) of the seal ring
seals varies with each manufacturer. The design and material of
the seal and the incorporated bearing rings are determined by L2 = axial length of the bearing ring
conditions such as temperature and pmssure.
L3 G overall axial length of seal and bearing ring (reference

1.4 It applies to piston-heads that may be either assembled
from a number of components or made in one piece.

Review of Indian Standards

Amendments are issued to standards as the need arises on the basis of comments. Standards are also
reviewed periodically; a standard along with amendments is reaffirmed when such review indicates that
no changes are needed; if the review indicates that changes are needed, it is taken up for revision. Users
of Indian Standards should ascertain that they are in possession of the latest amendments or edition by
referring to the latest issue of ‘BIS Handbook’ and ‘Standards Monthly Additions’.
