Examples of Possible Misalignment and
Results
Illustration 12 g01023261
Typical example
Example of lateral misalignment
Lateral misalignment is shown in Illustration 12 .
Lateral misalignment on the exhaust bellows can
lead to contact between liner and convolutions. The
misalignment can cause premature failure.
Lateral misalignment is identified by visually
inspecting the convolutions on the bellows. The
visual inspection will help ensure an even amount of
spacing between each of the convolutions.
Illustration 13 g01016673
Typical example
Example of premature failure due to lateral
misalignment
Improper alignment during installation can lead to
premature failure of the bellows. An Example of
premature failure is shown in Illustration 13 .
Handling
Bellows should be handled by the convolutions. The
convolutions are the ribbed portion of the bellows.
The ends of the bellows could be sharp and the ends
should be handled carefully. The bellows can be
damaged if the bellows are dropped.
Reusability
Note: If there are any indications of separation of the
layers or difficulty with the installation, discard the
bellows. Failure to replace the bellows could result in
the following problems: improper seating,
subsequent air leakage and Exhaust leakage.
The bellows consist of multiple layers of material that
are pressed together.
