Current-Insulated Bearings
Current-insulating bearings for your application will prove to be most cost-effective, considering the repair work and cost of machine downtime and lost production, in case of bearing failure due to electric current passage. To prevent these extra cost it’s recommended to opt for electrically insulated in the planning stage. As a result, you will benefit from reduced maintenance costs and higher machine availability.
Current-insulating bearings come in different sizes and variations. The designations are based on the 62.. and 63.. serie. They are usually open on both sides (they have no seals). The current-insulating bearings with a brass cage are available with the suffix ‘M’. Current-insulating bearings are available with an internal clearance of C3 (internal play higher than normal) or C4 (internal play higher than C3).
Under unfavourable conditions the passage of electric current causes damage to raceways and rolling elements as well as degradation of the lubricant. Which, in addition, will result in premature, unexpected failure of a motor or generator. Therefore current-insulating bearings are commonly used in applications where damaging effect of electrical erosion is likely, such as:
Industrial electric motors
Wheel sets and traction motors (rail vehicles)
Power transmissions
Generators (wind power)
