Main shaft and bearing
Repair manual

When replacing the bearings, check the following issues:
• straightness of the shaft
• location of the mechanical seal on the shaft (the surface must be free of
scratches)
• external condition of the bearing housings
• external condition of the drive flange (particularly where the shaft seal rubs
against the drive flange).
Measuring the straightness of the shaft
The straightness of the shaft is measured from three points (figure 13).
Figure 13. Measuring the straightness of the shaft

Supporting point 1

Supporting point 2
C
Measuring point
The maximum permissible deviation measured from the surface of the shaft is
0.15 mm, in which case the dislocation of the centre line is 0.075 mm.
NOTE!
Measure the straightness carefully.
Excessive deviation in the straightness will cause several
problems, the most significant being the excessive wearing of
the impeller and bearings.
2.1.3. Assembly of the front bearing
The front bearing must be assembled before it can be reinstalled. Clean all
parts of old lubricants and dirt before assembly.
Assembly of the front bearing:
1. Install the mechanical seal.
