5.4 Inspection and Service of Components
Drawing 18
Stator
Inspect the trough holes of the Stator (12) to be sure that they are clear.
Drawing 12
Collar O-rings
Inspect the Small and Large Collar O-rings, (3) and (54), for damage (clipped or cut) or deterioration (compression set or
hardening) and replace if necessary.
Inspect the Collar-Stem O-ring (55) for damage (clipped or cut) or deterioration (compression set or hardening) and replace if
necessary.
Drawings 4-6
Planetary Geartrain Assembly
General Disassembly and Inspection
Tip: Disassemble the Planetary Geartrain Assembly (drawing 6) over a container or a confined space. There are
several small components inside of the Geartrain, which may spill out if you are unfamiliar with its contents.
Turn to drawing 6: Pull the Output Shaft (13) and the Input Shaft Lower Bearing Housing (21; drawing 2) from the Planetary
Gearhead (drawing 4).
Pull off the top of the Planetary Gearhead (drawing 4) comprised of the Rotor (48; drawing 5), the Input Shaft Upper Bearing
Housing (20; drawing 1) and the Input Shaft (39; drawing 3) together. What is left is the cartridge style Gearhead (drawing 4).
If the geartrain O-rings (46) needs to be replaced, remove them at this time.
Warning: To reduce the likelihood of
scratching any sealing surface, use a pick made from brass.
Inspect the (46) for damage (clipped or cut) or deterioration
(compression set or hardening) and replace as required.
Gearhead Internals
Tip: To prevent the internal components of the Planetary Gearhead from unexpectedly spilling out, make sure that
all steps are done with the input side of the assembly facing up.
Using a brass pick or a small screw driver, remove the Internal Retaining Ring (41) and remove the Top Planetary Large
Washer (45).
Remove the internal components of the gearhead. Use caution to ensure that no components get lost during this operation. If
the internal components are not easily removed, they can be pushed up from the bottom of the gearhead. Also, the other (41)
and the Planetary Output Shaft Washer (44) can be carefully removed and the internal components pushed through.
Warning: If you suspect that the Gearhead requires service, proceed with caution. If at any time you do not feel
completely comfortable servicing Gearhead, contact Alfa Laval Tank Equipment immediately.
Examine the gears of the four different stages for any worn or broken teeth. Also, examine the Planetary Ring Gear (18) for
bent or sharp teeth. If any damage is found, contact Alfa Laval Tank Equipment immediately.
The gears in each level are interchangeable; they all have the same number of teeth.

Input Shaft and Housings
Take the top of the geartrain that was removed prior in drawing 6. To remove the Rotor (48), grip the outside of the (48) with
smooth jaw pliers and use a 5/16” socket to remove the Rotor Nut (5). The Input Pinion (38) can be gripped, but this is not
recommended because of the potential of damage to the gear. Only do this if the gear is worn and needs to be replaced.
Ensure that the Carbide (49), pressed into the (48) (drawing 5), protrudes slightly, and is not chipped or cracked.
Check for signs of scoring and wear on the Input Shaft (39; drawing 3). Replace if the coating has been chipped or cracked.
The carbide (49) in the Input Shaft Upper Bearing Housing (20) should protrude slightly out of the top and the second (49)
should be recessed 1.32mm (0
.052”) (drawing 1). In addition, its running surfaces should be smooth, flat, and free of chips
and cracks.
