Turbine bearing cover

Turbine bearing cover

for OURAGAN PLO sander

The belt sander turbine bearing cover is an essential part that plays an important role in the sander's suction system. This part is located close to the bearing of the suction turbine and its function is to protect the bearing and the internal components of the turbine while facilitating the flow of air.

The role of the suction turbine bearing cover is to prevent the ingress of dust, debris and moisture into the turbine's internal components. By keeping these undesirable elements out, the bearing cover helps to extend the life of the bearing and ensure that the turbine runs smoothly. In addition, it helps to maintain a regular and efficient flow of air through the suction system.

When should I consider changing the bearing cover on the belt sander's suction turbine?

1. Wear or damage: over time and with regular use, the bearing cover can become worn, deformed or damaged. If you notice cracks, holes, deformation or other signs of deterioration on the bearing cover, it's time to replace it.

2. Ingress of dust: if you notice that dust particles or debris are entering the bearing cover despite it being sealed, this may indicate that the cover is no longer fulfilling its protective role effectively.

3. Unusual noises: excessive noise, vibration or squeaking coming from the suction part of the sander may indicate that the bearing cover is not working properly.

In conclusion, the turbine bearing cover of the belt sander is an important part in protecting the internal components of the turbine and maintaining an efficient air flow in the suction system. If you notice any signs of wear, damage, dust infiltration or unusual noises, it is advisable to check the bearing cover and replace it if necessary. Make sure you choose a quality replacement bearing cover (Repex Floor certified) that is compatible with your model of belt sander. Regular replacement of the bearing cover will help maintain an efficient suction system and extend the life of your belt sander.
