Bearing arrangement of the Colesda expander
Thread Content
How are the thrust and radial bearings of the Colesda expander arranged? 1. Thrust bearing near the expansion end + radial bearing near the pressurization end/? 2. Radial bearing near the expansion end + thrust bearing near the pressurization end? 3. One thrust and one radial bearing is installed near each of the expansion and pressurization ends?
Thrust bearing near the expansion end, radial bearing near the pressurization end.
Are you sure? I asked Lind’s technical staff today, and they said that both the compression and expansion sides are equipped with thrust and radial bearings
There is one radial bearing at each of the expansion and pressurization ends; at the expansion end, a thrust bearing and a thrust plate are used to control axial movement.

For ordinary lubricated bearings, magnetic force is definitely an advantage; it’s a new technology, but the price is high
The expansion end and the pressure-increasing end of the Cryostar expander are both equipped with thrust bearings and radial bearings； Among them, the radial bearing is a tilting pad bearing!
The equipment should be configured at a higher level to ensure reliability. :lol
Currently, all Cryostar expanders of the MTC model are magnetic levitation expanders
