YR Turbines
2
Elliott YR steam turbines are among the most rugged
and reliable pieces of precision turbomachinery
available anywhere in the world. These master-
pieces of Elliott engineering and craftsmanship
serve thousands of customers continuously day and
night under conditions ranging from humid tropical
heat and rainfall to freezing icy tundra and snowfall.
Many YRs have been performing for decades. Day
after day, year after year.
Because of their exibility in adapting to customer
needs and the available selection of different
models, YR turbines are found in a great diversity of
applications such as driving pumps, compressors,
fans, blowers, generators, sugar mill tandems, cane
shredders, paper machine lineshafts and other es-
sential production equipment.
YR turbine products are standardized, and Elliott
offers numerous models and accessory options to
satisfy the many customer turbine requirements. Be-
cause YRs are standardized and major components
are stocked, customers can expect prompt shipment
to site, avoiding lost production.

Single-valve, single-stage, multi-purpose YR turbines have a world-
wide reputation for the highest quality, reliability and adaptability to
serve many needs. Available in ratings up to 3500 hp (2611 kW),
the YR turbine is a cost-effective answer for a wide range of re-
quirements such as driving pumps, fans, compressors, shredders,
generators and other machinery for continuous or stand-by service.

ELLIOTT MULTI YR TURBINE
For improved steam consump-
tion, Elliott engineers designed
the Multi-YR Turbine product
line. This design combines the
reliability and parts interchange-
ability of our popular single-
stage YR turbine with the power
and efciency of our traditional
multistage turbines. Because the
Multi-YR produces more horse-
power without additional steam,
it can be mounted in many
areas where single-stage steam
turbines are currently operating.
Multi-YR turbines are available
up to 10,000 hp (7500 kW).
... produce more power without additional steam consumption
Benefts
Improved effciency
Low cost
Standardized parts
Flexibility to meet customer needs
Meets the demanding standards of API 611 and API 612

Doweled bearing caps are removed without disturbing other parts including gov-
ernor and linkage and are replaced without any adjusting. Bearing liners snap and
lock in place no hand-scraping or tting is required. To promote rapid heat transfer,
bearings have a thin-wall steel shell with a bonded babbitt surface. A water jacket
removes heat from the lubricating oil, and combined with air spaces at the bolting
surfaces, insulates the oil from casing heat.
Bearing cases are sealed by rotating air-turbulence labyrinth seals that have both
internal and external slingers. Lubrication is by oil rings and oil is supplied by a
constant-level oiler.
Plugged openings are furnished for inspection of oil ring rotation, and for draining
the water jacket and oil reservoir.
Easy to inspect
Easy to replace
The casing seal glands (packing cases) are separate from and bolted to the casing
except for the AYR. The carbon sealing rings are thus easily inspected or replaced
by a single person; only the upper half of the gland is removed. The heavy casing
cover, rotor, and lower half of the gland need not be disturbed.
Non-rusting Inconel springs hold the three segments of each ring frmly in place.
Spring stops, locked in position by the cover, prevent the seals from rotating. The
rings are sized by computer to assure proper clearance at shaft operating tempera-
ture.
In the seal area, the shaft is spray coated with stainless steel to prevent corrosion
and wear then ground to a mirror nish.
No ftting
No clearance adjustment required
The rotor is always in perfect position without adjustment. A large single-row, anti-
friction locating bearing (red arrow) ts against a machined shoulder on the turbine
shaft and into a groove in the steam end bearing case. Numerically controlled
machining of components makes shimming for positioning the rotor unnecessary.
The bearings outer race has an anti-rotation band with a stop that is locked in place
by the bearing case cover.
The dynamically balanced rotor has stainless steel blades with stainless steel shroud
bands mounted in the high strength alloy steel disks. The latter are shrunk and
keyed onto an annealed carbon steel shaft.
... No other single-stage turbine gives you all of these advantages QUALITY & FLEXIBILITY
