| A company needed to investigate the
operation of a large pump and the lubrication system supplying the
bearings on the impellor shaft and valves. Tribosonics ltd discussed
the requirements for testing with the customer and drew up a recomended
testing framework involving calculation of the required lubrication to
each of the bearings, measurement of the clearance in the bearings
using ultrasound and shims, and visual inspection of the pump and
bearings using video and borescope imaging. |
