Abstract

A device for limiting an unbalance in inside a centrifugal, with an electric motor to drive a rotating component disposed in an enclosure around a rotational axis, wherein a rotor of the electric motor is non-rotatably connected to the rotating component, a bearing assembly for the rotor and the stator to be arranged in, and a stabilizer unit which generates as a function of a disturbing force acting on the rotating component a balancing force that is adapted to compensate said latter, the bearing assembly including support means such as to make the stator radially movable, and the stabilizer arranged radially outside and/or inside said stator and/or support means of the bearing assembly and having stabilizing means whereby in aggregate a radial balancing force can be generated.
