FLUID MACHINERY

Applications

• Water & waste water pumps
• Mineral Fluid Pumps
• Oil & Gas Pumps
• Centrifuges
• Compressors

All these applications require special bearings.

KZ Ball Bearings the single-row, deep-groove ball bearing is the most commonly used bearing on centrifugal. They are excellent for both radial thrust and combined loads, but require careful alignment between the shaft and the housing in which the bearing is mounted.

Fluid bearings are bearings in which the load is carried by a thin layer of speedily moving pressurized liquid or gas between the bearing surfaces. The moving parts do not come into contact, so there is no sliding friction; the load force is supported solely by the pressure of the moving fluid.
