Reliablilty Maintenance Solutions Limited
Stand: 5-K54
- The CHP plant features a 25-megawatt steam turbine and a 45-megawatt gas turbine.
- Both turbines are equipped with online vibration protection systems that monitor the shaft movement within a white metal lining.
- The turbines utilise hydrodynamic bearings, also known as sleeve bearings or white metal bearings.
- The turbines have X&Y probes that measure the gap between the probe tip and the shaft within the bearing, effectively measuring the movement of the shaft in free space.
- The steam turbine shaft operates at 9,000 rpm.
