Abstract
A sanitary seal assembly useful for sealing a rotary through-wall shaft in both static and rotary modes, the invention provides a sealing structure capable of being fitted to external wall surfaces of a cooking kettle or the like for rapid manual assembly and disassembly for cleaning according to sanitation standards. The sealing assembly includes a seal retainer having static and rotary sealing elements, the seal retainer being held in place by compression forces exerted by a pivotable seal compression element. The seal compression element is pivotable at one end to release pressure on the seal retainer to allow removal of the retainer for cleaning of the seal assembly.
