Application Overview

Bearing selection for Water Treatment Facilities

Water treatment facilities use bearings in the electric motors and driven equipment behind pumps, blowers, compressors and mixers. These machines often run for long periods in damp conditions, and an unplanned stop can interrupt a process line. Plant teams care most about quick, accurate identification of the drive-end and fan-end bearings and about combined-load capability in the driven machine.

  • Identify the motor bearings and the pump or compressor bearings separately, because their loads and required executions differ.
  • Select seals or shields with moisture and dirt exposure in mind, in line with the equipment specification.
  • Use angular contact arrangements where the driven equipment has combined radial and axial loads, as specified by the machine design.
  • Give the equipment tag, bearing position and required-by date on urgent replacement inquiries to speed up identification.

Three details to confirm before you inquire

  1. Motor model
