ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for sealing a space having therein rotating means, such as a roller bearing, is provided with sealing rings that are spaced along a rotational axis. The inner annular sealing edges of the sealing rings are biased to engage and seal in against seats that are moving relative to the sealing edges. The seats and sealing edges are disposed so that one or the other of the latter lifts off of its seat to permit pressure within the space to equalize automatically with ambient pressure whether the latter rises or falls relative to pressure within the space.
