Hi Tmoose,,
First of all we inspect the shafts for both direction after dismounting the bearing shield housings,, we found some marks on the shafts under due to lip seal friction,, (see pic attached)
we have run the motor solo w/out motor cooling fan & bearing shield housings with its...
Hi Tmoose,, thank you for your help & reply,,
1- Is the contact seal part of the OEM motor design?
Yes the contact seal part of the OEM motor design , its number (H218 ID 85, OD 110, TH 12 )
2- Is the cavity between the seal lips being well greased at installation?
I'm not sure I contact my...
Many Thanks (32c4) for your replied,,
Regards To :
(1)& (2) We have replace the old bearing by new one (SKF) & New shaft contact seal before a few days,, Problem Still.
(3) First we have working with recommended grease Mobilux EP 3, problem still ,,, then we use Mobilith SHC 100 spatial for...
Are the motor Bearing Clearance Class caused bearing overheating in sometime Or Not?
In other words, If I have bearing C3 ,then I want to change its clearance class to C4 ,, Is this effective to reduce the bearing temp. If I know that the cause of overheating is due to this class???
Today I have do these activities :
1- Run the motor solo w/out shield bearing housing (after see some polishing on the spacer rim) --- Result temp. constant @ 57
2- Grind bearing spacer rim by using sand paper & motor running
3- Run our motor solo (uncoupled)& bearing covered with full Hz &...
Are there any related between bearing spacer & shield bearing housing ,,, we have observed this zone hotter than other and some scratching/polishing @ top surface which it touch with each other
it is possible to be the heating source due to friction ???!!
Dear Expert,,
Today I have run our motor solo (uncoupled) as your recommended to me with full Hz & RPM (50, 2999),
The temperature in the DE bearing & NDE was 59 °C & 48 °C (Because still hot from the last running before shutdown),,
The test run was one hour only (readings taken every 10 min.)...
Here I have question to you ( Mr. Tmoose & Mr. electricpete)
IF there is too much axial load imposed by driven equipment or insufficient gap of the coupling , usually would show up on vibration (external), but our readings are very perfect For : V = 0.47 H = 0.48 A = 0.54
waiting your...
Dear electricpete,
I appreciate your kind replied ,,
1- Regarding to motor arrangement is Horizontal (multi stage pump) & Type of grease Mobilux EP3
2- The winding temp. very normal ,,, NO thermal imager we have ,but the hotter zone is the MTR DE bearing housing Zone especially upper place...
Dear Tmoose.
Many thanks for your kind replied,,
1- we monitored the temp. by temp. gun, unfortunately no sensor has been installed yet..
2- First we will check axial gap of the coupling ( if insufficient we will correct as per manufacturer specifies)
3- Then we will run the motor solo (...
Hi expert engineer,, could you please help me for my issue below :
We commissioned a new pump with new electric motor (315 kw, 546 A, 2985 RPM, 50 Hz), but we have get rising in temperature (overheating) in the MTR DE bearing crazily during first four hours reach to 107 °C, so we stop the motor...
