Ball bearings are very sensitive to both over and under lubrication, both being
detrimental to bearing performance. Either case is detrimental to bearing performance.
Use a thermometer to determine overheating. Excessive overheating will reduce
bearing life.
The relationship between temperature and pumpage temperature is an indication of
performance. Table 2 indicates the relationship between these temperatures.

The information shown in

is based on a room temperature of 70
°
F. Maximum
bearing temperature is 175
°
F. The temperatures shown above have a tolerance of plus
15 ° F. It is necessary to flush water on the shaft for liquid temperatures above 250 ° F.
This can be done either through a flushing gland or the stuffing box seal cage.
5.1.1 Oil Lubrication
Use only high quality turbine oil with rust and oxidation inhibitors. Service temperatures
determine oil viscosity. See
Table 3
.
Use a 300 SSU viscosity at 100
°
F for applications where pumping temperatures are
below 200 ° F. At pumping temperatures above 350 ° F, use 470 SSU at 100 ° F with
optional cooler.
