Turbine bushing

Turbine bushing

 for OURAGAN PLO belt grinder

The belt sander turbine ring is an important part that plays a crucial role in the sander's suction system. This part is located around the suction turbine and its function is to hold the turbine's internal components in place while facilitating air flow.

The role of the turbine ring is to provide structural support for the turbine components, including the bearing and other parts. It also provides a seal and helps to maintain a smooth and efficient flow of air through the suction system. It also helps prevent dust, debris and moisture from entering the turbine's internal components.

When should I consider changing the suction turbine ring on my belt sander?

1. Wear or damage: like any mechanical part, the suction turbine ring can wear out with time and regular use. If you notice any cracks, deformation, signs of wear or other damage to the ring, it is time to replace it.

2. Reduced performance: if you notice a reduction in the overall efficiency of the belt sander's suction system, dust collection is less efficient, or you notice a reduction in airflow, this may indicate a malfunction in the impeller bushing.

3. Unusual noises: Excessive noises, vibrations or squeaking coming from the suction part of the sander may indicate a malfunction of the turbine ring.

In conclusion, the belt sander's turbine ring is an important part in providing structural support for the turbine's internal components and maintaining efficient airflow through the suction system. If you notice any signs of wear, damage, reduced performance or unusual noises, it is recommended that you check the turbine ring and replace it if necessary. Make sure you choose a quality replacement turbine ring (Repex Floor certified) that is compatible with your model of belt sander. Regular replacement of the impeller ring will help maintain an efficient suction system and extend the life of your belt sander.
