[PSUBS-MAILIST] gamma

[Brian Cox via Personal_Submersibles]

Hank,
I think the o ring configuration is almost identical to a rotating shaft seal correct?  Maybe slight differences on the tolerances.

Brian,
That is the dive plane control.  Yes it is very common to have shafts with oring seals.  Gamma has 6 in total.
My dive plane control is now a thruster release.  I mounted a vertical thruster and it is jettisoning.

 Hank,              
 I've been looking at pictures of gamma, a couple of
 questions;  I noticed there are a couple of moving
 gadgets on there, like what I assume is a buoy release and
 then there is another deal I'm not sure what it is but
 it looks like some sort of control for something, it moves
 back and forth kind of near the manipulator arm, it looks it
 is has a shaft that slides in and out to control it, is that
 the case or is it a rotating shaft like all the other
 rotating shafts?  Just wondering if there are many
 sliding shafts ( like a piston type o ring seal ) out there
 on subs. Brian
