This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250122973 titled 'BEARING LUBRICATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OPERATING THE SAME

Original Abstract Submitted

example bearing lubrication system and methods of operating the same are disclosed herein. an example closed loop system to provide a lubricant to a fluid pump includes a lubrication flow network disposed within the fluid pump; a sensor fluidly coupled to the fluid pump to measure a condition of a fluid that is to enter the lubrication flow network; a first transport bus fluidly coupled to the lubrication flow network, the first transport bus to transport an inert gas; a controller to actuate a valve fluidly coupled to the first transport bus, the controller to transmit signals to the valve based on the condition of the fluid to cause the valve to open or close; and a separator fluidly coupled between an outlet of the fluid pump and the first transport bus, the separator to separate the fluid and the inert gas.
