During operation of our plant’s 240kw, 1400r per minute primary fan, one of the elastic pin nuts came loose; there are a total of 12 such nuts, and at present the fan is operating normally. I can’t stop; does anyone know if it’s still possible to continue moving it? Thank you
It can continue to be used as long as there is no excessive foam from the damping rubber ring at the bottom; if there is a sound of metal hitting, the machine should be stopped for inspection.
It can continue to run. But regular inspections are necessary.
As long as the unit is stable, it can continue to operate, but the cause of the nut falling off needs to be found. If the unit experiences abnormal vibrations or similar issues, it can continue to operate if such conditions are within acceptable limits; however, if it shuts down, it is necessary to take it apart for inspection. At this point, it is important to check components such as the remaining nuts and pins, and if there is wear or damage, those components need to be replaced entirely.
Sure, there’s no major issue. Strengthen inspections and vibration monitoring; if there are any signs of detachment, don’t persist – identify the cause and resolve it
It can run, but there are potential risks； It should be dealt with as soon as possible!
