A seal assembly for a creating a seal between a shaft and a valve housing of a bleed valve that impedes contaminants from reaching bearings includes first and second seal pieces. The first seal piece circumferentially surrounds the shaft and is disposed between the shaft and the valve housing. The second seal piece is in contact with and is disposed axially adjacent to the first seal piece relative to the shaft. The second seal piece is biased against the first seal piece.

1. A seal assembly for a creating a seal between a shaft and a valve housing of a bleed valve that impedes contaminants from reaching bearings, the seal assembly comprising: a valve housing;a shaft;a first seal piece comprising an L-shaped cross-section, the first seal piece circumferentially surrounding the shaft and disposed between the shaft and the valve housing; anda second seal piece comprising an S-shaped cross-section, the second seal piece in contact with and disposed axially adjacent to the first seal piece relative to the shaft, wherein the second seal piece axially biases the first seal piece relative to the shaft against the valve housing. 2. The seal assembly of claim 1, wherein the first seal piece comprises a collar with a cylindrical portion extending axially and a flange extending radially relative to the shaft, wherein the cylindrical portion is shrink fit into a bore of the valve housing. 3. The seal assembly of claim 2, wherein an axial length of the first seal piece relative to the shaft is greater than an axial length of the bore of the valve housing relative to the shaft. 4. The seal assembly of claim 1, wherein the second seal piece includes a radially inward portion with an inner edge, a radially outward portion with an outer edge, and a radially intermediate portion, wherein the radially inward portion is axially biased against the flange of the first seal piece relative to the shaft. 5. The seal assembly of claim 4 further comprising a shim in contact with and disposed axially adjacent to the second seal piece, wherein a shape of the shim comprises a ring, and further wherein the second seal piece is axially biased against the shim and the first seal piece relative to the shaft. 6. The seal assembly of claim 5, wherein the second seal piece maintains contact with the shim and the first seal piece during operation of the bleed valve. 7. The seal assembly of claim 5, wherein the second seal piece is configured to axially deflect to account for a tolerance stack-up of the seal assembly. 8. The seal assembly of claim 7 further comprising: a spacer disposed between the shim and the valve housing; andan outer gap along a radial direction relative to the shaft between the outer edge of the second seal piece and a radially inward surface of the spacer comprises 0.015 to 0.050 inches (0.381 to 1.270 millimeters). 9. The seal assembly of claim 6 further comprising an inner gap along a radial direction relative to the shaft between the shaft and the inner edge of the second seal piece comprises 0.0005 to 0.0015 inches (0.0127 to 0.0381 millimeters). 10. The seal assembly of claim 9, wherein the second seal piece is configured to maintain the inner gap of 0.0005 to 0.0015 inches (0.0127 to 0.0381 millimeters) upon flexion, deflection, or radial displacement of the shaft. 11. A bleed valve comprising: the seal assembly of claim 1;the valve housing with a main flow passage and a bore;the shaft with a first end and a second end, wherein the shaft extends across the main flow passage and is rotatable about an axis;a flow control member mounted to the shaft, wherein the flow control member is configured to regulate a flow of a fluid through the main flow passage;a bearing housing with a bearing compartment, the bearing housing connected to the valve housing, wherein the first end of the shaft extends through the bore of the valve housing into the bearing compartment;a bearing assembly disposed in the bearing compartment; anda bearing assembly disposed in the bearing compartment. 12. The bleed valve of claim 11, wherein the first seal piece comprises a collar with a cylindrical portion extending axially and a flange extending radially relative to the shaft, wherein the cylindrical portion is shrink fit into a bore of the valve housing. 13. The bleed valve of claim 11, wherein the second seal piece includes a radially inward portion with an inner edge, a radially outward portion with an outer edge, and a radially intermediate portion, wherein the radially inward portion is axially biased against the flange of the first seal piece relative to the shaft. 14. The bleed valve of claim 13 further comprising a shim in contact with and disposed axially adjacent to the second seal piece, wherein a shape of the shim comprises a ring, and further wherein the second seal piece is axially biased against the shim and the first seal piece relative to the shaft. 15. The bleed valve of claim 14, wherein the second seal piece maintains contact with the shim and the first seal piece during operation of the bleed valve. 16. The bleed valve of claim 14, wherein the second seal piece is configured to axially deflect to account for a tolerance stack-up of the seal assembly. 17. The bleed valve of claim 16 further comprising: a spacer disposed between the shim and the valve housing; andan outer gap along a radial direction relative to the shaft between the outer edge of the second seal piece and a radially inward surface of the spacer comprises 0.015 to 0.050 inches (0.381 to 1.270 millimeters). 18. The bleed valve of claim 15 further comprising an inner gap along a radial direction relative to the shaft between the shaft and the inner edge of the second seal piece comprises 0.0005 to 0.0015 inches (0.0127 to 0.0381 millimeters). 19. The bleed valve of claim 18, wherein the second seal piece is configured to maintain a radial clearance with the shaft between 0.0005 to 0.0015 inches (0.0127 to 0.0381 millimeters) upon flexion, deflection, or radial displacement of the shaft.
