Abstract
A seal assembly for sealing a space between a housing and a component against a liquid medium includes a seal element fixedly connectable to the housing, the seal element including a seal lip that is movable at least in a radial direction, the seal lip being disposed at an angle with respect to the radial direction and a support element in abutment with the seal lip. The support element and the seal element are configured such that a pressure exerted on the seal lip by the liquid medium is transmittable in the radial direction to the support element, and the seal assembly also includes a further seal assembly on a side of the support element axially opposite the seal element, the further seal assembly including a first seal having a first seal body and a second seal having a second seal body.
