COMPRESSOR INSPECTION
The Vilter Single Screw Compressor is designed for
long periods of trouble free operation with a mini-
mum of maintenance. However, a yearly inspection
is recommended so any irregular wear is noted and
rectified. At this time, the bearing float is measured
for the main rotor and gate rotors.
The following are the procedures used in measuring
the main rotor and gate rotor bearing float.
BEARING CHECK
CAUTION
When taking the measurements, do not exceed 300 to
500 Lbs. of force at point of contact or damage may
result to the bearings
A) Shut down and de-pressurize the unit.
B) Main rotor bearing float.
1) Remove the coupling guard, then remove the
center member from the coupling.
2) Attach a dial indicator to the compressor
frame as shown and zero indicator. Place a
lever arm and fulcrum behind the compressor
coupling half and push the coupling towards
the motor (note measurement).
TABLE.1 MAXIMUM BEARING FLOAT
3) Re-Zero indicator, now position the fulcrum
on the motor and use the lever arm to push
the input shaft towards the compressor (note
measurement).
