Is there any effect if we fill up oil through the air vent?

What happens if we use wrong class of plastic gauge. For example, the clearance given 0.175mm to 0.25mm, but we use different class of plastic gauge such as type c. Is the result from upper bearing housing compression will be different if use different plastic gauge?
Sorry...

Before do any mechanical seal installation, there are steps that need to be followed. One of the step is to check radial movement of shaft or shaft deflection. How are we gonna do this check on between bearing pump type?? is this step only applicable for overhung pump only...

I have some question regarding the title. Before this, 1 of our pumps leak through mech seal. The leakage was really bad. The pump is over hung type spray tower recirculation pump by flowserve.So, someone try cleaning the flushing line thoroughly. After cleaning and test run...

Before this, I've only known thermal growth on pump side or turbine side. Until recently someone from sulzer,their field service representative (fsr) come and told my friend (the one that deals with him) that we need to put thermal growth factor of motor side into account...

There is a case where our pump running below minimum flow, but all parameters are in good condition. The vibrations are good, the temp and so the discharge pressure. My question is, do we need to increase the flow to above minimum flow or is okay if all parameters are...
what will happen if we let steam turbine runs on idle speed too long? lets say the idle speed is 900rpm. Is there any abnormalities will occur on equipment? The steam Turbine is driving a compressor, centrifugal (over hung type)
Is there any difference regarding the value of deflection force if use different type of belt tension gauge?? like single belt tension vs twin belt tension?https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=e9ba4143-957d-4872-9cb7-6e08eb701ea7&file=Capture.JPG
I have 2 questions regarding mechanical run test (MRT)
1.) What is rated flow? Cause in pump data sheet, there are minimum flow, preferred flow, and operational flow. So which one is used in MRT?
2.) Lets say we have the flow that we want and we run test. If the flow drop below minimum flow...
In Centrifugal pump, between bearing type or others say center hung type, is it necessary to do 5 points check if only 1 side of mechanical seal is under replacement or installation..?
