Abstract:
A seal assembly for sealing a shaft bearing includes a seal housing, first and second seal rings retained by the seal housing, an annular chamber formed between the first and second seal rings and a connecting channel configured to place the annular chamber in fluid communication with a bearing-housing-side oil space. When the seal assembly is installed on a shaft, the connecting channel is configured to permit a fill-level equalization between the oil space and the annular chamber when the oil space is filled to a first possible fill level (N 1 ) and to prevent the fill-level equalization between oil space and annular chamber when the oil space is filled to a second possible fill level (N 2 ).

Claim (Index 8):
The seal assembly according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein, when the seal assembly is installed on the shaft, an opening of the connecting channel into the annular chamber and/or an oil-chamber-side inlet of the connecting channel in a deepest or a central point has a distance (a) from the first possible fill level (N 1 ) that satisfies the relation D/20\u2264a\u22642D/3.
