We have a problem in lube oil sys which oil escaped and showring from the mist eliminator discharge chimney (vaccum value 152 mmh2o at baseloade). We changed the filters and flushed the piping and checked the loop seal however the problem still existing.
After that GE Advisor recommended installing orifice at the mist eliminator discharge pipe. After installing this orifice the vacuum value decreased to 85 mmh2o but after few days we found vapor and oil showering at bearing #5.
Is this because of installing the orifice?
The generator is air cooled generator.
Thanks.
