What to do if the coupling bolts of a centrifugal compressor are missing?
Thread Content
The coupling bolts that connect the turbine to the centrifugal compressor are missing; is it possible to remove 2 or 3 of them symmetrically? Or use symmetrically substituted bolts of different weights?
First of all, it’s definitely not possible to add another bolt; otherwise, the torque exerted on each bolt on average will be too high. It’s better to add one more bolt
Temporarily, there are no accessories available as before. :(
Never try to make up for one loss with another; it’s best to replace everything.
It’s best to replace them all; if that’s not possible, replace one every other time (as a substitute).
If it’s gone, buy a new one and replace it! ! Movable equipment requires spare parts to be kept on hand; otherwise, there won’t even be time to repair it when it breaks down
Agree with the person above; replace them symmetrically. Also, hurry up and prepare the spare parts
