The type of bearing can be determined by measuring the rotor run-out
time. To do so, the rotor must be pushed by hand, once to the left (L) and
once to the right (R), with a force as close to the same in both directions.
The resulting run-out times until the rotor comes to a stop are measured
for the anticlockwise and clockwise rotations and then compared. With
standard radial bearings, the run-out time for anticlockwise and clockwise
rotating rotors is the same.
If one run-out time is at least 1.5 times longer than the other, then radial
bearings with a special bearing geometry are installed. The following B
clearances are valid for these special bearings.
TPS57 TPS61
B minimum 0.46 0.52
B maximum 0.73 0.82
CAUTION
Clearances out of tolerance
Clearances out of tolerance and excessively worn components can be
the cause of serious damage to machinery and property.
τ Have components assessed and, if necessary, replaced by an ABB
Turbocharging Service Station.
