Chapter 19, Problem 1RQ
Why is it necessary to keep lubrication records for motors?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The necessity for keeping lubrication records for motors.
Explanation of Solution
Some electric motors contain sleeve bearings which require oiling periodically. The motors which have ball or roller bearings are lubricated with grease. The motors which contain sealed bearings do not require lubrication.
In order to maintain proper lubrication from time to time, a lubrication record is required to be prepared. A lubrication record is the best method of ensuring that motors are neither overlubricated nor never lubricated.

- A technician is working on a 2005 BMW 7 series.. The compressor is running all the time and the air is cold. The tech unplugs the wiring harness leading to the compressor, but it stays running. The technician recommends a new compressor as he suspects the clutch has melted. What is likely happening here? nothing. This compressor doesn’t have a clutch, only a pulley the clutch has melted due to a slipping belt only the hub needs replacement, the pulley is fine the compressor must be seized internally for this to happenarrow_forwardQuestion NO:1 Answers these questions in detail with few explanation of all. a.

- A hot-wire MAF has low resistance across it when the wire is hot: Technician A says that this condition will cause the engine to stall as soon as you put the transmission into gear. Technician B says that this condition will cause the transmission to shift late. Who is correct?arrow_forwardTech A says that the weight of the flywheel smoothes out the engine’s power pulses. Tech B says that the flexplate and torque converter perform this same function. Who is correct?arrow_forwardlist three conditions that dictate that a rotor should be refinished.arrow_forward

Multiple-row radial engines can be called double-row radial engines as well. Opposed-type engines can have 6 cylinders. The higher crankshaft allowed the use of shorter landing gear. John Barber created the first practical heat engine. Single-type radial engines can have 6 cylinders. Radial engines can be liquid cooled. The rollers and balls used in some bearings are made of polished steel. Radial engines have the best power to weight ratio in all types of reciprocating engines.arrow_forward
