Analysis of the causes of expander failures

2016-07-12View Original

Thread Content

Two expanders in the air separation tower have failed; experts are requested to analyze the causes. The models in question are PLPK-53.33/4.07*0.35, and during operation their speed suddenly dropped to zero, with the rotor failing to rotate. The other expander, which had just been overhauled, also experienced the same problem after 14 hours of operation. There are no changes or fluctuations in the process operations

It is possible that the thrust clearance is too small, preventing the thrust from opening. .
