* Note that it normally takes 2 hours for bearing temperature to stabilize and the final temperature will depend on the ambient, r/min, pumpage temperature and pump size.
Also some oils have a greater Viscosity Index than the minimum acceptable of 95 (eg Mobil DTE13M) which may extend the minimum temperature capability of the oil. Always
check the grade capability where the ambient is less than -5 ºC (-23 ºF).
Most oils recommended for wet sump bearing
housings contain foam inhibitors as well as
antioxidants and anticorrosion additives normally
unsuitable for oil misting. Compounded oils CANNOT
be used for oil mist and anti-foam additives are to be
avoided. The above LSC grades are recommended
by Flowserve where Oil mist.

Where the pump is lubricated by oil mist
the amount of oil mist supplied (m³/h) is normally
calculated to be at least the bearing bore diameter
(mm) x the number of bearing rows / 25. The oil mist
should consist of at least 0.025 - 0.04 % oil content.
Where oil mist is utilized to lubricate bearings the
pressure in the bearing housing must not exceed
0.01 barg (0.15 psi).
