Zusammenfassung:A shaft bearing assembly (10) having a shaft (11) supported in a bearing housing (12) is described. The shaft bearing assembly (10) includes a pressure reduction device (13) for generating an underpressure inside the bearing housing (12). The pressure reduction device (13) is operated by employing an incompressible fluid. Further, a method of reducing a pressure inside a bearing housing (12) supporting a shaft is described. The method includes using an incompressible fluid for operating a pressure reduction device (13) for generating an underpressure inside the bearing housing (12).
