6.3.2.3 Lubricate new bearings with oil for the first time
New bearings should be lubricated as described in
5.8.2 Lubricate the bearings with oil (optional) on
.
6.3.3 Bearing temperatures
•
Bearing temperatures up to 82°C | 180°F are normal. For accurate measurement, place a contact-
type thermometer against the bearing housing. Record the reading in a convenient location for ref-
erence.
•
The stability of the temperature, rather than the number of degrees, is the best indication of normal
operation. A sudden increase in temperature is an indication of danger and a signal to investigate.
Check the unit for abnormal hydraulic operation and unnecessary loads, such as coupling misalign-
ment. See
7.1 Troubleshooting on page 74
•
Do not use the human hand as a thermometer. A temperature that feels hot to the hand can vary
from (49°C | 120°F to 54°C | 130°F depending upon the individual. Above this temperature, the hu-
man hand can not accurately estimate temperature.
6.3.4 Bearing conditions
The life of a bearing can be drastically reduced if contaminated with even a small amount of dust or dirt.
All bearing assembly operations must be done in an environment that is as free of dust as possible. All
tools and hands must be kept clean.
If...
Then...
New bearings need to be installed
They must not be unwrapped, cleaned, or washed until just before
the time of installation.
Old bearings are contaminated
They must be replaced. Washing bearings does not guarantee clean-
liness.
There is any question as to the condition of
bearings
It is always best to replace them. This may prevent an unplanned
shutdown. Check the bearing housing seals and replace as required.
6.3.4.1 Clean contaminated bearings
If new bearings are not available and immediate reassembly is necessary, then contaminated bearings
can be cleaned using the following procedure.
1.
Pour 1–2 quarts (0.9–1.9 liters) of clean, water-free kerosene into a clean pail.
2.
Dip the bearings into the kerosene and agitate slowly.
