What causes the motor bearings of large reciprocating compressors to burn out? This post was last edited by Through the cold winter on 2009-3-24 19:55.]
The poster should clarify what type of motor it is; different types of compressor motors have different bearing designs. For ordinary motors, whether the bearings are rolling or sliding type, I believe the causes should be sought in these areas: installation and assembly quality, alignment and vibration conditions, as well as lubrication and cooling systems – including issues such as insufficient oil or overheating； Compressor load, whether the motor is overloaded, whether the bearing quality is satisfactory – maybe we should listen to what the experts have to say
Main reason: Lack of oil, excessive load causing the motor to overload!
If it is a sliding bearing, the reasons can be divided into the following categories； 1. Oil cut-off causing tile damage 2. Uneven force distribution on the bearing tiles 3. Excessive load
