Zusammenfassung:In a method for monitoring a state of a safety bearing of a rotor shaft of a machine, with the rotor shaft being supported by a magnetic bearing and the safety bearing having an outer ring and an inner ring arranged for rotation with respect to the outer ring, the rotor shaft of the machine is caught with the safety bearing when the magnetic bearing of the machine fails. The magnetic bearing is witched off for monitoring the state of the safety bearing. The rotor shaft is rotated with the machine under control of a higher-ranking controller by using a defined motion sequence, and a physical variable of the safety bearing is measured with a sensor.
