Another thermal image taken randomly as the thermographer waited for the electrician to open MCC doors. This star chip blower system was identified as a potential problem after verification that both blowers were under similar load. The temperature difference between the 2 bearings was approximately 30 degrees celcius, enough to raise concern, especially since this bearing was replaced only 3 months prior to this inspection.
