RE: Whining siren noise and bearing replacement/repair
Rollerblade bearings come in different ABEC- ABEC 3; 5; 7; and ABEC 9. I only use 9s.

Dissassembly is so unusual that I doubt you'll find anyone who help you with this project.

Kimble, time for a new machine. The Philips Respironics System One 60 series (760P) BiPAP Auto might be a good deal. Newest is the Dreamstation BiPAP Auto, and for Resmed, the Aircurve 10 VAuto or older S9 Vauto.

RE: Whining siren noise and bearing replacement/repair
Hi,
I've had my dinosaur of a machine, which is a Resmed S8 VPAP S, for a long time. When new it lasted for about a year or two before the whining started. This was around 2009 ish. My service replace it with a refurbished one. The second time the motor started whining was around 2015 so I stopped using the machine. I was VERY lucky one day when I went to a local thrift store and found the SAME EXACT MACHINE! The price... $4.99!! Eeek!!! I turned the machine on and it was working fine so I just tooK both apart and transplanted the motor to mine. It's been working fine since, although the exhalation part where the pressure lowers seems non existent in the last few months. The motor that I have has 2 clear caps over the impellers, but the metal casing is fused together. The impellers I could not find a way to get of. Anyways, I wanted to know how you (or anyone) got the impeller off the motor to get to the bearings? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

My S8 VPAP S blower motor finally gave out again and took it apart once more. Finally figured out how to disassemble the Blower Motor Assembly.
I would post picks from photobucket but I have not reached my 4 posts to add links. The impellers can be twisted one at a time to slowly release from the shaft in order for access to 3 screws to a plate. Macro shots of the side of the bearing does confirm OP's bearing ID of NMB R-3HH. At this point I have a suspicion that the S8 series might have the same Blower Motor Kit assembly. An offer was made to me for an S8 Elite II for $60 but it was a smoker's unit. Might see if it is still available just to see the motor inside and see it it will work for the VPAP.

Eppy, pretty good stuff. Feel free to make a couple gratuitous posts so you can link the images. Who would guess access is by twisting out the impellers.

The OP is hilarious as calling out an entire country as having poor QC! Talk about a misunderstanding of production specifications!
