ABSTRACT:
A retrofit bearing oil supply filter-control apparatus for a rotating machine is disclosed. The filter-control apparatus may be installed in existing or new bearing oil systems. The apparatus includes a hollow flow-control block having a central cavity therein. The central cavity has an inlet in fluid communication with an oil supply and an outlet in fluid communication with the bearing.
The apparatus also includes a removable oil flush deflector inserted in the central cavity. The oil flush deflector is inserted during an oil flush to prevent oil containing damaging particles from reaching the bearing. The apparatus also includes a removable oil filter that is inserted in the central cavity during normal operation. The oil filter catches damaging particles entrained in the oil and prevents them from reaching the bearing.
