Using Carbon Thrust Bearing in Sub Motor ( G10Z Grade Carbon )

Saves electricity upto 10%
Increase Pump efficiency upto 5%
Starts & runs the Pump even at low / fluctuating voltage
Motor runs ar full RPM
Gives upto 10% more output of water in LPM as compared to teflon / fibre
Makes pump rotates freely & silently
The motor does not get locked even offer prolonged rest

Submersible motors are fitted with Hydrodynamic Self Adjusting Tilting Shoe Thrust Bearing to take the axial down thrust from the pump. These are a complex and clever part of a reliable submersible motor and probably not understood very well.

Principle

The Hydrodynamic Thrust Bearing transmits the rotating shaft's axial thrust load to the frame of the motor which is mechanically supported in the well. The axial Thrust load is transmitted through the bearing on a self renewing film of lubricant which is water in most motors. The pressure in the fluid film supports the load without the thrust disc or pivot shoes making contact.

Theory

Fluids tend to stick to most surfaces due to viscosity. and in the case of loose segments thrust bearing we rely on the fluid sticking to the surface on the rotating thrust disc. This fluid is then dragged between the thrust bearing disc and the face of the pivot shoe by centrifugal force and forms a wedge shaped film. This wedge shaped film is essential for the successful operation of the thrust bearing. When the bearing is operating correctly there is no contact between the disc and the face of the pivot shoe. The only time there is contact is when the motor is stopping or starting. This means there should be only negligible wear between the faces and no wear while the motor is operating.

Surface finish of the carbon thrust bearing disc is machined flat and exactly perpendicular to the shaft with negligible runout on the face. The surface is lapped to give a very smooth flat finish. The surface of the face of the pivot shoes is also ground and lapped to give a very smooth flat finish and in addition the height of each pivot shoe in a set is identical and the base of the pivot leg is spherical so that the pivot shoes are free to pivot and share the load quality Due to mechanical tolerances there will always be some variations in dimensions but in general they are tightly controlled. The Design of the thrust bearing allows the whole thrust bearing assembly to swivel on the thrust button which also allows the pivot shoes to share the load more evenly.

Company Details

In 1974 a visionary named Usmangani R Shaikh, with science academic background identified the unfulfilled needs of then flourishing textile industries of Ahmedabad for carbon products used for electircal and mechanical applications.
Instantaneously making the most of his technical flair, management skills and risc taking attitude and available team, he embarked on a project to manufacture carbon components like carbon brushes, seal rings and all the carbon products required for various textile machineries of then period. The project named GUJARAT CARBON PRODUCTS started in a small room and with a single work station but with a broad vision, well defined mission, set goals and accurate planning and controlling.
This was earliest impetus by someone in this industry toward which very few people were familiar. Raw material procurement was the biggest problem and equally problematic was the availability of tools and machinery to be used for this unfamiliar material. Striving through these known and numerous unknown problems he succeeded in satisfying the customer need and could establish himself as a pioneer in manufacturing and supplying industrial carbon products in entire Gujarat state.
In 1995 second generation equipped with fresh talent and modern skills and inheriting the experience and know-how of parent, commenced additional project with a new company to provide a thrust which still continues.
Progression was now at the forefront and still continues. By day and night, months and years the affair which started in a small room, have snowballed today into an organisation named GRAPHICARB PRODUCTS- AN ISO 9001-2008 certified company which is the only and the biggest company in Gujarat-INDIA to make carbon products for mechanical and electrical application for all the industries and having stretched value chain from raw material to finished product stage.
Today Graphicarb Products boasts of manufacturing all the products made out of carbon-graphite using minutely selected raw material, state of art machineries, well defined standard operating procedures, best possible factory layout, adequate land space, precision and accurate measuring instruments and stringent quality policy.
Company today looks ahead for a bright future and is commited in serving the needs of its customers satisfactorily. Every day with continual improvement policy, organisation is making every effort towards betterment and success through one and only one policy “Growth through customer satisfaction”
