Seal ring assemblies for use with rotary valves and methods to manufacture the same are disclosed. A seal ring assembly is described that includes a ring-shaped seal to be fixed within the rotary valve, where the seal enables the sealing engagement of a control member with a flow control aperture. The seal is compressed between a first seal clamp and a second seal clamp by a compressive force maintained by a plurality of fasteners extending through the seal and fixed to the first and second seal clamps.

1. A seal ring assembly for use with a rotary valve, the seal ring assembly comprising: a ring-shaped seal to be fixed within the rotary valve, wherein the seal enables the sealing engagement of a control member with a flow control aperture, and wherein the seal is compressed between a first clamping surface and a second clamping surface by a compressive force; anda plurality of fasteners extending through the seal, wherein the fasteners are fixed relative to the first and second clamping surfaces to maintain the compressive force on the seal before the seal ring assembly is to be positioned within the rotary valve. 2. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the fasteners are threaded fasteners. 3. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the fasteners are fixed relative to the first and second clamping surfaces via welding. 4. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the seal ring assembly has a substantially rectangular cross-section. 5. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 4, wherein the seal ring assembly is to be pressed into a rectangular slot to produce a static seal on a backside of the rectangular slot. 6. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the seal ring assembly has a substantially T-shaped cross-section. 7. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the seal is to be fixed obliquely within a recess. 8. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the seal is to be fixed perpendicular to a backside of a recess. 9. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein at least one of a first clamp corresponding to the first clamping surface or a second clamp corresponding to the second clamping surface is cut into segments by relief notches. 10. A seal ring assembly for use with a rotary valve, the seal ring assembly comprising: a ring-shaped seal to be fixed within the rotary valve, wherein the seal enables the sealing engagement of a control member with a flow control aperture, and wherein the seal is compressed between a first clamping surface and a second clamping surface by a compressive force; anda plurality of fasteners extending through the seal, wherein the fasteners are fixed relative to the first and second clamping surfaces to maintain the compressive force on the seal, wherein at least one of a first clamp corresponding to the first clamping surface or a second clamp corresponding to the second clamping surface is cut into segments by relief notches, wherein a spring wire is stretched around one of the first or second clamps. 11. A seal ring assembly for use with a rotary valve, the seal ring assembly comprising: a ring-shaped seal to be fixed within the rotary valve, wherein the seal enables the sealing engagement of a control member with a flow control aperture, and wherein the seal is compressed between a first clamping surface and a second clamping surface by a compressive force; anda plurality of fasteners extending through the seal, wherein the fasteners are fixed relative to the first and second clamping surfaces to maintain the compressive force on the seal, wherein at least one of a first clamp corresponding to the first clamping surface or a second clamp corresponding to the second clamping surface is cut into segments by relief notches, wherein the relief notches only partially segment the at least one of the first or second clamps. 12. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 9, further comprising metal shims positioned between the seal and the at least one of the first or second clamps to support the seal. 13. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the seal comprises an expanded graphite laminate. 14. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 13, wherein the seal is laminated with at least one of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyolefin material, Polybenzimidazole (PBI) fabric, or metal, between the expanded graphite. 15. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein a clamp associated with the second clamping surface has an opening to orient the seal. 16. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the seal is to be secured to a body of the valve surrounding the flow control aperture. 17. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 1, wherein the seal is to be secured to a surface of the control member. 18. A seal ring assembly for use with a rotary valve, the seal ring assembly comprising: a ring-shaped seal configured to be fixed within the rotary valve, wherein the seal enables the sealing engagement of a control member with a flow control aperture;a seal mount adjacent a first side of the seal to secure the seal within the rotary valve;an annular clamp adjacent a second side of the seal opposite the first side;a plurality of fasteners extending through the seal and fixed to the clamp and the seal mount to maintain a compressive force on the seal between the clamp and the seal mount before the seal ring assembly is to be positioned within the rotary valve. 19. The seal ring assembly as defined in claim 18, wherein the seal comprises an expanded graphite laminate.
