Unbalance in compressor
Unbalance in compressor
(OP)
We have problem in compressor vibration while unbalance increase in Outboard side (suction side). While we overhoul the compressor, we found in Inboard side (Discharge side) there are foreign material stuck in impeller (around 75 grams weight).
Can anyone explain this phenomena ? Why material that stuck in Inboard side made vibration increase in Outboard side ?

RE: Unbalance in compressor
This compressor consist of Recycle and Make up in single Shaft. It's mean Suction of Make up to be Outboard side and Discharge of Recycle to be outboard side. What we found only the clearance of Inboard bearing more than outboard bearing.
