Slide Bearings Type E For Shaft Diameter Range 160-315 mm Main Application Field Electric Machines End flange mounted slide bearing type EFWF with water-cooling and lubrication by a fixed oil ring RENK series EFWF has been developed as a variation of the E-type bearing, based on the modular component principle. The EFWF bearings are a flange-mounted watercooled design with fixed oil ring lubrication. The mounting flange is located laterally at the end of the housing. The main application field for this type of bearings is electric machines in particular for marine application. This leaflet contains the data required for incorporating EFWF type bearings into machine designs.
Technical Information This brochure gives details of a range of fixed oil ring lubricated EF-bearings, shaft diameters 160 to 315 mm, suitable for use on electrical machines, fans, water turbines and pumps. For information on E-bearings with smaller shaft diameters refer to the corresponding RENK brochures. Bearing Housing The finned EF housings size 22 to 35 are made of high quality cast iron (EN-GJL-300) and are designed for heavy duty performance. Other materials, such as EN-GJS- 400-18-LT or GS 45 can be supplied in special cases. Bearing Shells The shells are manufactured from steel (C 10) and have a spherical seating. They are lined with RENKmetal therm 89 and the working surfaces and the oilways are configurated to give long life under severe operating conditions. Being fully interchangeable ensures trouble free assembly at all times. The bearing shells for the E type bearings with lubrication by fixed oil ring have always a plain cylindrical bore. Apart from bearings without thrust parts (type...q) there are shells with plain white-metal lined shoulders (type...b) to absorb non-continuous axial loads of limited magnitude, as well as shells with bi-directional taper land faces (type...k) which can absorb axial loads of medium magnitude. Alternatively the taper land faces can be supplied suitable for only one sense of rotation (type...e) to absorb high axial loads. Seals Particularly for marine application the EFWF-type bearings sizes 22 to 35 are equipped with rigid seals (type 20). These seals are made of corrosion resistant aluminium alloys and correspond to protection grade IP 44. Higher protection grade (up to IP 56) upon request. For stationary applications the bearings can be also fitted with floating labyrinth seals (type 10). These seals are made of fibre reinforced, high temperature resistant RENK plastic therm P50 and are resistant to wear. The floating labyrinth seals correspond to protection grade IP 44. Higher protection grades (up to IP 56) are also available. Special types of seals such as air seals or special machine seals are also available on request. Oil Supply Self lubrication by fixed oil ring in closed ring channel, up to approx. 18 m/s speed at the outer diameter of the ring. The non-locating bearings are fitted with fixed oil rings which move in axial direction on the shaft. The oil ring follows the movement of the shaft due to the friction produced by spring-mounted pressure plates. For use with locating bearing, the fixed oil ring is designed as collar, which can be either shrunk onto the shaft or machined out of the shaft forging. An oil scraper takes up the lubricant carried to the highest point by the fixed oil ring and delivers it to the oil pockets. The fixed oil ring has an excellent performance, ensuring enough lubricant amount even in the case of combined journal and thrust bearings. Electrical Insulation To prevent problems from electrical eddy currents, the EFWF bearings can be electrically insulated, internally. In such cases the spherical seating of the shell is coated with a layer of insulating plastic material. Also there is an insulating layer between rigid labyrinth seal and housing. Heat Dissipation Frictional heat generated is usually dissipated by radiation and natural convection. Water cooling can also be used, through seawater resistant cooling tubes submerged in the oil sump. Dimensions for connection upon request. Temperature Control Two independent commercially available thermosensors can be used for monitoring the temperature of the bearing. We recommend the use of RENK resistance thermometers; alternatively RENK angle thermometers for direct visual reading. Oil Selection Generally, any branded oil of low foaming tendency can be used as a lubricant. The correct viscosity for each operating condition will be determined by EDP calculation. Such calculations are always carried out at the design stage. A print-out of the results can be provided on request. Hydrostatic Jacking In the case of high surface pressures, provision can be made for high pressure jacking oil. The bottom half shell is provided with two hydrostatic pockets (one either side of the vertical centre line) with connections to a high pressure jacking system via flexible pipes. Further Options For applications where the start-up takes place at low ambient temperatures, the bearings can be fitted with a heater located in the oil sump.
Dimensions of Bearings 1) Seal diameters (d 9 ) are possible with every shaft diameter of one size. 2) This dimension is about 3 mm larger in case of insulated bearings. 3) Bore available on both sides. All weight values indicated in this catalogue are average, non-binding values. The drawings shown are not strictly binding. Note Any additional machine seal on the machine side will be of special design.
