K29800 Bearing Compatibility Tester |
| Test Method Evaluates the in-service stability of turbine lubricants by running a sample-lubricated babbit journal bearing for an extended period at high speed under controlled conditions of load, lubricant flow and temperature. The change in various properties (viscosity, carbon residue, acidity) is measured at the end of the endurance test and the bearing is cleaned and examined for evidence of deposits, corrosion and other changes. Features and Benefits • Conforms to FTM 791-3452 specifications • Digital-indicating controls and built-in temperature recorder |
| K29800 Bearing Compatibility Tester Tests the bearing compatibility (lacquering, deposits, corrosion) and stability of turbine lubricants when subjected to an endurance test. Consists of bearing housing assembly with test bearing and support bearings, hydraulic loading device, oil circulation system with thermostatic and hydrostatic control, and powerful 5hp variable speed drive system. Digital LCD controls monitor oil pressure, oil temperature and spindle rpm, and a built-in strip chart recorder plots oil temperature at three different points—at the bearing housing, in-line, and in the reservoir. Equipped with overtemperature and low pressure cut-off switches and a cartridge oil filter for convenient ‘flush run’ operation. All components are mounted in a sturdy angle iron frame. A removable steel guard protects drive train components. Specifications Conforms to the specifications of: FTM 791-3452 Journal Drive Motor: 5hp variable speed, with digital 0-3500rpm control. Fan cooled with thermal overload protection. Lubricant Flow: 3.8L/min. gear pump recirculating 1.9-23L/min. of test lubricant to support bearing and test bearing. Digital oil pressure circulation. Temperature Control: Sump temperature (0-500°F) with digital indication and recording of temperature at bearing housing, sump and in-line. Bearing Load: Hydraulic loading device maintaining 1520 kPa (220 psig) on the loading bearing. Electrical Requirements 200-240V 50/60Hz, 3-Phase, 20A 380V 50/60Hz, 3-Phase, 12A 440V 50/60Hz, 3-Phase, 10A Dimensions lxwxh,in.(cm) 48x36x54 (122x91x137) Net Weight: 1300 lbs (589.7kg) Shipping Information Shipping Weight: 1582 lbs (717.6kg) Dimensions: 101.7 Cu. ft. |
