First stroke:
Through the opened inlet valve compressed air is pressed by the exhaust gas turbocharger via charge air cooler into
the cylinder. The piston moves downwards. During this period the crankshaft goes through a half turn. The first
stroke is also designated suction sfroke.
Second stroke:
With closed valves the air in the cylinder is compressed by the upwards moving piston. Before the top dead centre
(T.D.C.) is reached by the piston, fuel is injected into the combustion space. Here too the crankshaft goes through a
half tum. The second stroke is designated compression stroke.
Third stroke:
The injected, atomized fuel ignites in the hot compressed air. Combustion and with it expansion begins and presses
the piston downwards.The crankshaft goes througb a further half turn. The third stroke is designated woAGrgs&o~
or expunsion stroke.
Fourth stroke:
The exhaust valve opens and the combustion gases are pressed out of the cylinder by the upwards moving piston.
These exhaust gases drive the turbine and with it the blower of the turbocharger. The crankshaft goes tbrough a
further half turn. The fourth stroke is designated exhuust stroke or scuvenging stroke.

Diesel Operation at very low load
ZA40S
- The ZAS stationnary engine can be operated at very low load, but over 60 kW per cylinder, with the following
restrictions :
1. For engines operating between 60 kW and 160 kW per cylinder, for more than 50 hours :
- Although engines-are obviously not designed for running full time at very low load, no time limit is given for
operation at very low load.
- Lub-oil has to be adapted to the used fuel. The Base Number must be according to OllO-l/Al (low BN
corresponding to low sulfur content of Diesel Oil).
- Sudden power increase should be avoided, or at least limited to 5 % of the Maximum Continuous Rating.
- Turbochargers must not be washed during the very low load period (bearing lub-oil contamination could occur due
to washing at very low load).
- The color of turbocharger bearings lub-oil must be checked daily, and changed immediately if it becomes darker.
The concerned turbochargers must be overhauled by the turbocharger Services (ABB or Napier Services) before
increasing the load to its normal value.
- If the lub-oil centrifugation does not work during thevery low load period (due to lackof steam for instance), water
content in lub-oil will increase. Check it once a week by analysis in accordance with OllO-l/Al.
The lub-oil has to be centrifuged as soon as steam production is available.
Lub-oil quality should be checked after centrifugation, and before increasing the load to its normal value.
- Wash the boiler after the very low load period, and before increasing the load if possible.
- The load increase after the very low load period of more than 50 hours must follow the curve given for Running
Period Preparation during Commissioning, ref 137.735.162. (see hereafter).
- After the first very low load operation period, at least one cylinder cover must be removed after the 90 % load phase
of the load increasing curve ref 137.735.162. This to check at least once that all deposits have burnt during the load
increase, as this may depends on fuel and lub-oil types.
- A lub-oil type change may be preferrable before running again at very low load (some
lub-oils make less deposits than others).
l One cylinder cover must be removed for inspection after the next very low load operation
period exceeding 50 hours.

l The engine should finish its load increase according to the curve ref 137.735.162.
l If operating again at very low load in the same conditions (load, fuel, lub-oil ...). more than
50 hours, removing one cylinder cover for inspection is not needed, as the first inspection
did not show abnormal deposits.
2. For engines operating between 160 kW and 300 kW per cylinder, for more than 50 hours :
- Although engines are obviously not designed for running full time at very low load, no time limit is given for
operation at very low load.
- Lub-oil has to be adapted to the used fuel. The Base Number must be according to OllO-l/Al (low BN
corresponding to low sulfur content of Diesel Oil).
- Sudden power increase should be avoided, or at least limited to 5 % of the Maximum Continuous Rating.
- Turbochargers must be washed during the very low load period according to our procedure ref 137.770.174.
- The color of turbocharger bearings lub-oil must be checked daily, and changed immediately if it becomes darker.
The concerned turbochargers must be overhauled by the turbocharger Services (ABB or Napier Services) before
increasing the load to its normal value.
- If the lub-oil centrifugation does not work during the very low load period (due to lack of steam for instance), water
content in lub-oil will increase. Check it once a week by analysis in accordance with OllO- l/Al.
The lub-oil has to be centrifuged as soon as steam production is available.
Lub-oil quality should be checked after centrifugation, and before increasing the load to its normal value.
- Wash the boiler after the very low load period, and before increasing the load if possible.
- The load increase after the very low load period of more than 50 hours must follow the curve given for Running
Period Preparation during Commissioning, ref 137.735.162. (see hereafter).
3. For engines operating between 60 kW and 300 kW per cylinder, for less than 50 hours :
- No restriction if there is a load increase over 75 % load of at least 10 hours duration after each very low load period.

OPERATING MEDIA
Diesel Engine Fuels
Liquid petroleum derivates are the predominant fuels used for Diesel engines. Within thisgroup of fuels, products
of the utmost variety and quality exist which influence the frequency of overhauls for the engine and for the fuel
treatment plant the required expenditure. Besides technological reasons economicconsiderations determine limits
for the fuel quality depending on design, size and speed of the engine as well as of conditions of utilization.
Gas oils and Diesel oils, so-called distillates of petroleum cari be used in a11our engines. Whether a specific engine is
suited to run on heavy fuel oil and up to what grade depends on the specification of the respective engine type and
has beenplotted in the table “Quality requirements ofheavyfuel oil in thedelivered condition”(see sheet 0356-2).
When using fuels with very low sulphur content particular tare must be taken during the running-in of new piston
rings and cylinder liners. Such fuel oils sometimes develop anomalies in combustion which cari affect the tribologie
conditions in the cylinder space.
For operation on heavy fuel oil, special provisions must be taken. In particular, the plant for heating and cleaning
the fuel oil must be suited to the heavy fuel in question.
Fuel suppliers generally provide only a few of the parameters given in the “Quality specifications”. This makes the
evaluation of the supplied fuel oil quality difficult for the engine user. TOovercome this, classification societies have
started some time ago to provide quality sutveyance programs as service performance.
Fuels of various deliveries or from different suppliers should, if possible, not be mixed on board or in the power
plant. Fuel oils may differ in their chemo-physical structure to such an extent that they pose a riskof incompatibility
and bring about the precipitation of asphalt-like sludge leading to fouling of filters, overloading of the centrifuge
and incomplete combustion.
. The following table provides a synopsis on some parameters of Diesel oils which are generally marketed (see sheet
0356- 1). The analysis values alone, however, do not permit to determine with sufficient certitude in each case the
suitability of a fuel oil type for engine operation.
Properties Marine Gas Oil Marine Diesel Oil Intermediate Fuels Bunker Fuel Oil
Density
at 15 o C kglm3 820 ... 870 850 1..920 900 ... 991 up to 1010
Viscosity
at 40 o C mm2/s (cSt) 1,5 ... 7 4 ... 14
at 50 ’ C mm2/s (cSt) - - 30 ... 420 up to 700
High viscosity fuels must be heated to reduce the viscosity to the recommended value
at engine entry.
Pour point “C -6 ... +6 -6 ...-+6 0 . .. 20 up to 30
The fuel cari no longer be pumped in the vicinity of the pour point and heating devices
are necessary for tanks and pipes at corresponding ambient temperatures.
During combustion the sulphur of the fuel bums to for-m sulphur oxides which in turn
form sulphuric acids. These acids are very corrosive to the cylinder linerwalls and the
piston rings primarily if temperatures of these components are below the dew point.
The corrosive attack cari be combated by a cylinder oil with sufficient alkalinity,
expressed by its BN (Base Number).
Regarding the selection of the BN in relation to the sulphur content of the fuel, refer-
ence is made to instructions on sheet 0356 -4.
Experience shows that also an excessive BN cari have detrimental effects such as forrn-
ing hard deposits in the combustion chamber of the engine.
Conradson carbon % up to 0.2 up to 2.5 up to 18 up to 20
residue CCR
/ I I
A high conradson figure shows that the fuel tends to form deposits during combus-
tion, and thus favours the foulingof noules, piston ring grooves, gas outlet ducts and
scavenge ports.
4sh content 5% up to 0.01 up to 0.02 up to 0.15 up to 0.2
Ash grinds piston rings, cylinders and valves, and cari also promote fouling and burn-
off especially with a high vanadium and sodium content. The sodium content should
be less than 1/3 of the vanadium content.
Water content Y0 0 ... 0.1 0 ... 0.25 0.1 ... 1 upto2
[gnition quality
Cetane number/index - 40 40 ... 20
XXI 890 880
The inflammability of marine fuels (heavy fuel oils) is as of recently being judged the
CCAI (Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index). This index should not lie above 870.
For pure distillate fuels the CE’IXNE NUMBER is used as reference. This number
should not lie below 30.
I’his summary gives only a survey of available fuel oils but does not indicate their suitability.
Regarding the respective permissible limiting value, see NSD Quality requirements on sheet 0356-Z.
Ltis not necessarily complete, other properties may also influence the engine performance.
Marine Diesel Oil cari be pure distillates or may be blended. Some properties of blended oil may exceed the fuel
juality requirements for specific engine types.

Test Method
Before the fuel is fed into the engine system, some values such as viscosity, water and aluminium content must be
further reducedby efficient fuel treatment. For the design of the fuel treatment plant, it is strongly recommended to
. follow the relevant recommendations of New Sulzer Diesel (see sheet 0357- 10).
The above fuel quality requirements correspond to the following standards:
CIMAC Recommendations 1990 H55lK55
ISO 8217:1987 RMH55
BS MA100:1989 FwH55
Q. Viscosity
The maximum admissible viscosity of the fuel that cari be used in an installation is dependent on the heating and fuel
preparation equipment. As a guidance, the necessary preheating temperature for a given viscosity may be taken
from the viscosity/temperature chart in the engine Operating Instruction Manual. The recommended viscosityval-
ues of the fuel oil before engine are: (see also sheet 0357-21)
13 - 17 cSt (mm?s); 60-75 SecRWl; 70-85 SSU.
3. Sulphur
The alkalinity (BN) of the lubricating oil should be selected with regard to the sulphur level of the fuel in use.
For example when using fuel oil with avery low sulphur content, acylinder lubricating oil with respectively lower BN
is recommended. Indications for the selection of the BN of lubricating oil in relation to the sulphur content of the
fuel oil are found in the recommendations for lubricating oil.
5. Aluminium
Aluminium occasionally appears in crude oil as a natural common impurity element. However, if it appears in a
larger percentage in compound with silicon in the fuel oil (e.g. over 10 mglkg) it cari be regarded as an indication of
catalytic fines (cat. fines) as residues of catalytic cracking. Such residues cari enter marine fuel oil as a result of er-
rors in the refining operation or else by using unsuitablëblending components in considerable quantities in the pro-
cess.
These catalytic residues from aluminium oxides appear as small pellets and cari cause extraordinary high wear on
piston rings and cylinder liners. In order to eliminate these particles in the separator, the separator must be oper-
ated at its optimum, i.e. the throughput must possibly he reduced to less than 20% of the nominal rate and the sepa-
rating temperature kept as high as possible (98 22°C). Expe rience shows that with correct operation of the separa-
tor the content of e.g. 30 mg/kg cari be reduced to less than lOmg/kg. A content of 8mg/kg aluminium before the
engine is regarded as just tolerable. When judging the destructiveness of such residue, not only its ratio (mg/kg) but
also the size distribution and the shape of the pellets are relevant. In practice these criteria are, however, not easily
kept under control.
5.95 zA4os
0356-3a
6. Water
The water content of the fuel must be further reduced by careful purification, most effectively done by centrifuging
and the use of proper draining arrangements on the settling and service tanks. A water content not exceeding about
0.2% volume after fuel treatment is an appropriate guiding value.
TO achieve a good separating effect, the throughput should be reduced and the separator temperature kept as
constant as possible. For recommended data, refer also to the separator Instruction Manual.
7. Flash point
The flash point is a value determined by the inspection authority for judging fire risks. For this, local regulations of
the responsible authorities must be additionally obsexved. The flash point is basically not a quality criterion for Die-
sel fuel.
8. Pour point
The Iowest admissible temperature of the fuel must be about 5 - 10°C above the pour point to secure easy pumping.

Lubricating Oils
1. General
The functions to be performed by the lubricant in a diesel engine cari be summarized as reduction of friction and
wear, cooling of engine components, sealing of piston rings and cyiinder liner and prevention of corrosion at
high and low temperatures. In addition to this, it must be able to tope with unfavourable by-products through its
neutralization and detergent / dispersa1 properties. TOeffectively perform a11these functions it must have spe-
cific physical and chemical properties.
An alkaline trunk-piston engine oil with detergent / dispersa1 properties, designed for application in medium
speed engines running on residual type fuel must be selected. Although there are no standardized test methods
in force for this type of oil, reference is often made to US-Army MIL-L-specifications, the now obsolete Cater-
pillar specifications and AP1 classification to indicate the performance level of the lubricating oil.
The same oil is used for the bearing system and the separate cylinder lubrication (dual purpose oil, SAB40). The
type of fuel used, distillate or residual, determines the necessary performance level of the lubricating oil. Resid-
ual fuels impose higher requirements on the lubricant.
As base stocks highly refmed naphthenic as well as paraffinic or mixed based minera1 oils have provensuccessful
in service. As a guideline the following characteristics are indicated:
Alkalinity and performance level of the lubricating oil is to be selected in accordance with the type of fuel. Vis-
cosity grade SAE 40.

BN (mgKOW9 30 30 - 40
When using a fuel with a sulphur content of more than 3%, a lube oil with an alkalinity of 40 BN is to be given
preference.
When nmning on heavy fuel oil the lubricating oil must be continuously separated, for which a centrifugal sepa-
ratorworkingin bypass is recommended which, according to latest advice by the separator manufacturers, has to
be operated as a purifier. It is recommended that the flow rate be reduced to about 20% of the separators nomi-
nal rate. Separating at normal separating temperature should commence at least 4 hours before starting-up the
engine and continue for 2 t 4 hours after shut-down. The temperature of the lube oil should be 85 to 95°C at the
separator inlet. Water washing must not be applied.

OPERATING MEDIA
Possibly also dilution by fuel and metal content (spectroscopie analysis) might be included. The significance of
analysis resultscan best be assessed if they are considered as a whole and in relation to the past analytical history
of the oil.
In the course of time even the best quality lubricating oil changes its properties due to ageing, oxidation and
contamination caused by the working conditions in such a way that a change of the oil fil1 must be considered.
However, it is not possible to give a fixed time interval for this purpose since this is influenced by the operating
conditions and the efficiency of the oil treatment.
For general guidance, condemning limits are indicated below. A rather sudden change of one or the other of
these parameters cari indicate abnormal operating conditions or failures in the system. In such a case it would be
of little help just to change the oil without investigating the cause.
Correct sampling is most important to be able to draw true conclusions from the analysis. Care must therefore
be taken to ensure that the sample is not contaminated after being drawn. The instructions given on sheet 0356
of the Maintenance Manual must be observed.
The values indicated below are given as a guidance. As pointed out before, their significance cari be best as-
sessed ifthey are considered as a whole andin relation to each other. Normally, the oil is still fit for service if the
values of the listed parameters are within the limits indicated hereafter:
!
If one of these limits is reached remedial action must be taken to bring the oil charge back to normal condition.
Besides renewal of the complete oil charge, this might also be achieved by intensified separation (e.g. through
decreasing the intervals between the discharge cycles of the separator), special treatment in a reeonditioning
tank (settling tank, sufficiently high temperature of the oil of 70 to 80°C is thereby important) or by partial
replacement of the oil charge. It is also recommended to seek advice from the oil supplier.
It bas been stressed by the separator manufacturers that lube oil separators must only be operated as purifiers
for reasons of safety. In clarifier operation, the danger existsthatthedirtseparatedoutfromthe oilwillsolidify
in the bowl so that its removal is no longer certain, leading to eut-of-balance and destruction of the bowl.
0356-7
OPERATING MEDIA
6.1 ‘lbrbocharger
For the selection and maintenance of the lubricating oil the requirements of the turbocharger supplier as
outlined in the instruction book must be observed.
As a general guidance it cari be stated that a good minera1 oil of the rust and oxidation inhibited type, with
good resistance to thermal degradation and antifoaming properties is recommended. This is best achieved
by application of a premium turbine oil of viscosity grade ISO VG 68 (i.e. approx. 68 mm 2/s at 40°C). Fur-
thermore oils of the viscosity grade VG 78 cari be used.
Should a rapid discolouration of the lubricating oil be noticed in the turbocharger then the antifriction
bearings have to be checked for earlywear. It must, however, be realized that some minera1 oils eventually
become darker due to ageing and oxidation processes, when in continuous use.

1. General remarks
TO avoid service stoppages due to the cooling water circuit the water must be suitably treated to cause neither
corrosion nor the formation of sediments. Untreated coolingwater leads, from experience, relatively quickly to
the formation of sediments and incrustations and with it to troubles in the cooling system.
For a fresh filling the raw water must, without fail, be totally desalinated water or condensate water from e.g. the
fresh water generators or from auxiliary steam systems with additives. Condensate water is highly corrosive and
must therefore be made suitable as a coolant by corrosion inhibitors.
Only in exceptional situations should drinking water or process water be used from the local mains. Its hardness
must on no account exceed 10 “dH (German hardness degrees). If the water exceeds this limit it must be desali-
nated and brought to the hardness value indicated below.
Sea water must never be used as raw water because of its high content of salts.
As a nominal guide for the desired raw water quality the following values should be used:
Hardness .................................... 3 to 10 “dH
Content of chlorides and sulphates .............. not more than 100 mg/liter
pH value . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8 to 9
In cases of doubt a water analysis must be carried out and advice be sought from New Sulzer Diesel Ltd.
It is generally not recommended to use corrosion protective oils (emulsion oils) for treating the coolingwater, as
considerable risks are run to fou1 the cooling system, if instructions are not strictly adhered to and insufficient
checks of the coolant (a water-oil emulsion) are carried out.
It is recommended to choose such suppliers of inhibitors who cari also provide expert advice for the fresh filling
as well as for later in service.
Coolant leakages have to be madegood again by adding the right water with the correctly metered additive. Loss
by evaporation has to be made up by correct raw water (see above). In thisway au over concentration of inhibi-
tors is prevented.
The cooling water in the cooling system should have a pH-value of 9 to maximum 10.
A faultless and permanent venting of the cooling system is an essential requirement for the uniform and effec-
tive cooling of a11componentsin the system.
The water cooled spaces must be regularly inspected for rust formation, contamination and the formation of
sediments. The quality of the cooling water must be tested for its correct inhibitor concentration as well as for
other parameters. Here the instructions of the supplier of the inhibitor must be carefully followed. It is also rec-
ommended to secure the services of the inhibitor supplier or to utilize appropriate test kits as per instructions.

OPERATING MEDIA
Emulsion oils
When emulsion oils are used as inhibitors, it is essential that full attention be paid to the following points:
-the system must be scrupulously clean before being put into service.
When the system has been operating for a short time, the original inhibitor concentration falls sharply due to the
creation of an oil film on the metal surfaces (e.g. from 0.5% down to 0.1% by weight). Only after the concentra-
tion drops below 0.1% weight should a calculated amount of fresh emulsion oil be added to bring the value back
to 0.4% to 0.5% by weight.
For tests on the existing concentration of inhibitors the recommendations of the oil supplier must be followed.
Too high a concentration causes an increase in the oil film thickness and thereby impairs the heat transfer, which
in turn causes increased corrosion and local overheating (heat cracks, burn stars).
Totally Salt-free water cari result in the emulsion oil causing foaming, in which case anti-foaming additives
should be used according to the oil supplier’s instructions
Cuoling water systems with emulsion oils are particularly sensitive to contamination or fouling and especially
in the presence of combustion residues. The acid in them causes the emulsion to decompose, which leads to
sludge formation.
Later, in service, cleaning cari become necessary if by influx of oil or when due to gradua1 formation of sediments
the heat transfer and with it the cooling effect is diminished. Such problems Willoccur earlier where the tare of
the cooling water and of the cooling system has not been given the required attention. The complete system must
then be treated by a suitable detergent agent (degreasing, dissolution of chalk sediments). Prier to filling with
the prepared cooling water, the system has to be thoroughly rinsed through and any residual acid remains
neutralized.
For this purpose suitable cleaning agents are available, which are too numerous to be listed here. We again rec-
ommend, however, to consult a firm of specialists for assistance.
>
Contaminations occurring during operation are settling in the cooling system particularly in areas where the
water velocity is low and they considerably impair the heat transfer. Cooling water spaces in cylinder heads espe-
cially have to be periodically checked. Should sedimentation be detected then the complete cooling system must
be cleaned.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
:General indications
The prerequisite for a safe operation free from trouble is an engine that is having the best possible maintenance.
The below mentioned points should always be a guide to the maintenance staff.
Lighting
Besides a permanent good lighting, hand lamps should be ready at hand in various locations of the engine room.
Cleanliness
The engine room as well as the engine itself should always be kept as clean as possible. Any leakages should be
attended to as soon as possible. Dust, sand and chemical vapours must be prevented from entering the engine room.
Waming
Opening valves and other shut-off devices may allow hot fluids or gases to escape.
When dismantling engine components prestressed springs may suddenly expand.
Fire
Welding work and activities which cause sparks, should not be carried out in the engine room, before ensuring that
no explosive gases, vapours or inflammable fluids are present. Components such as exhaust turbocharger air fihers
must be protected by suitable covering.
When claddings and covers are removed before the engine has cooled down, the risk of fire or explosions is in-
creased if welding is carried out or open flames are being handled.
Care must also be taken when paints or easily inflammable solvents are used in the engine room.
Insulation material saturated with oil or fuel (due to leakages) is also easily ignited and should therefore be re-
placed.
Cleanliness in the whole engine room, also below the floor plates, reduces the possibility of a fire and the risk of its
spreading.
Tools
Hand tools should be piaced at easily accessible locations and clearly arranged. Special tools and devices shah be
placed in the engine room in the vicinity of their usual application in such a way that they cari be put into action
without hindrances.
In marine installations they must be fastened and protected against rust.
Spare parts
Large spares should be stored as near as possible to their probable place of fitting, well braced and secured and
where they are in the reach of the engine room crane. All the spare parts must be well protected against corrosion,
but with a compound requiring little effort for removal. They must also be protected against mechanical damage.
Spare parts removed from the store should be replaced as soon as possible.
If the engine has to be shut-down due to suspected heated parts of the running gear or bearings, at least 20 minutes
must elapse before the covers are unfastened and removed to reduce the danger of an explosion.
When commissioning an engine after an overhaul of its running gear a check must be made by hand touching to find
out whether any areas are heating abnormally. Thischeck should be made after 10 minutes operation and repeated
after about 1 hour. Following this, the checking should again be made after a short full load run.

rIùrning gear
When using the turning gear the indicator valves on the cylinder head must be opened. It is advisable also to start the
pre-lubricating pump.
Risk of frost
If there is a possibility that the temperature in the engine room falls below freezing point, with the engine put out of
service, measures must be taken that the water in the engine, in the pumps, coolers and piping system cannot freeze.
(Draining the systems or heating the engine room).
5.95 zA4os
0357- 1
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Normal Operation
The important checks and precautions during normal operation are carried out as follows, either by the personnel
responsible or instrumentation, depending on the installation.
1. Regular checking of the pressures and temperatures using the pressure gauges and thermometers. The values
and limits laid down in the engine acceptance records, supplied separately, and table 0358 should be maintained.
2. The temperature differences behveen the cooling water inlets and outlets should be kept assmall as possible, i.e.
as much water as possible should be allowed to flow through the engine. For this reason, the cooling systems
should never be unnecessarily restricted.
3. Check that the various valves for the engine cooling and lubricating systems are in the correct positions.
4. Any changes to the cooling water flows should be made slowly, since abrupt temperature changes cari cause
damage due to thermal stressing.
5. It is particularly important to maintain the correct charge air temperature after the air cooler. In principle, the
charge air temperature should be kept as low as possible since higher temperatures result in less air to the cylin-
ders. However, the temperature must not be low enough to cause condensation. This means that the air temper-
ature after the air cooler must be above the equivalent dew point.
6. Thecharge air pressure drops across the turbocharger air filter and the cooler should be checked. If the pressure
drop is too high, this cari result in too little air reaching the engine which, in turn, cari lead to turbocharger surg-
ing.
7. When heavy oil is used as a fuel, the temperature at the engine inlet must always be kept high enough SOthat the
viscosity lies within the permissible range (see sheet 0357-21).
8. Comparison of the readings shown on the instruments with those indicated in the Engine Acceptance Report
Will provide a good indication of the engine’s behaviour.
TOthe most importance readings belong: position of the engine load indicator, speed of turbocharger, charge-
air pressure and exhaust temperature before the turbocharger, as well as on stationary engines the power output
of the generator and on marine engines the engine speed. A good indication is also obtained by the specific fuel
consumption, whereby fluctuations in the lower calorific value of the fuel must be taken into consideration.
9. It is particularly important to watch the exhaust gas temperature before the turbine. The maximum permissible
temperature must never be exceeded (see sheet 0358 and the separate turbocharger instructions).
The exhaust gas temperatures after each cylinder are only meaningful when comparedwith the values obtained
during the shop tests; by themselves they are of no importance. If the temperature after any single cylinder varies
i considerably from the test results, the reason must be found.
10. Combustion cari be checked from the colour of the exhaust gases, or by making smoke tests where apparatus is
available.
11. On engines with separate cylinder lubrication, regulate the cylinder lub. oil quantity and calculate the specific
consumption.
12. Ifprovided, check the various components in the cylinder lubricating system (header tank level, oil filter, oil
pump, flow-control valve,OREKI-hydraulic motor and cylinderlubricatingpumps).
13. Listening to the engine noise cari disclose irregularities.
14. The fuel oil must be thoroughly cleaned before use. Water and sludge should be regularly drained from the daily
fuel tank and fuel filter. The separator instructions must be observed.
0357-la
15. The permanent drain from the receiver space on the engine housing and of the charge air cooler casing must
always be open and during operation charge air issues. If water emerges it is necessary to clarify whether it is
: condensate or cooling water. In the latter case, the cooler is defective and must be repaired.
Should water flow out, one has to clarify whether it is water from the cooling system of the cylinder or the charge
air cooler low temperature circuit.
From time to time the drains must be checked, for possible blockage.
16. The permanent venting of the cooling systems must always be open to permit air to escape.
17. Check the pressure drop across the oil filter.
18. Check the levels in the water and oil tanks as well as those from the leakage pipes. AIways look for the cause of
any abnormal changes.
19. Check the cylinder and fuel valve cooling water for contamination (e.g. in the header tank level glass). The cause
of any contamination should be found and remedied. The water should be analyzed regularly. The concentra-
tion of any water treatment additives must be strictly maintained.
20. From time to time indicator cards must be taken and be assessed and compared with one another.
21. Lub. oil should be centrifuged. Lub. oil samples should be taken regularly and sent to an approved laboratory for
analysis (for permissible oil contamination see sheet 0356).

Preparations for operating the engine after overhauls and long periods out of service (one or more days)
The engine should not be started after a long period out of service until the following basic checks have been carried
out.
1. Check that no tools, equipment, cloths, etc. have been left in or on the engine after overhaul.
2. Check the levels in the various engine tanks and auxiliary equipment (also turbocharger, govemor, etc.)
3. Check that the fuel control linkages move freely.
4. On engines with separate cylinder lubrication turn the hand crank on the cylinder lubricators about 30 times to
charge the delivery pipes. Watch each flow indicator and check that excessive force is not needed to turn the
crank.
5. Check that the various valves for the engine cooling, lubrication and fuel systems are in the correct positions.
6. Start up the cooling water, lubricating and fuel oil pumps and adjust the pressures (see sheet 0358). Start the
stand-by or pre-lubricating oil pump on engines with built-on pumps. Switch on the available heating for lubri-
cating oil and cooling water.
7. Check that any cocks fitted in the cylinder and turbocharger air vent pipes are open. The water side of the charge
air coolers must also be vented. (No venting, or even partial venting of cooling water spaces cari lead to damage
to the engine).
8. Open the indicator cocks in the cylinder heads and rotate the engine several times with the turning gear (min.
two full turns) to make sure that the running gear is working satisfactorily and that no water, oil or fuel has col-
lected in the cylinders.
9. After any work has been done on the engine lubricating oil system, open the crankcase door and remove the
rocker covers. ‘Rrm the engine until oil cari be seen flowing out of all the running gear bearings and rocker gear.
The separate pre-lubricating pump has to be used on engines equipped with built-on pumps.
10. Close indicator cocks.
11. When the engine is to be run on high viscosity fuel (heavy fuel oil), the fuel has to be correctly pre-heated (see
sheet 0357-21). In this case the fuel valve cooling water must also be heated.
12. Check the starting air pressure (30 bar). Blow any water out of the piping and starting air receivers.
13. Check along whole the engine for leaks. If such appear remedy immediately.
14. Disengage the turning gear and lock the operating lever.

15. For further instructions see ‘Starting the Engine’.
Depending on the type and layout of an installation, further preparations Will have to be carried out for which the
operating personnel must receive separate instructions.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
In addition to the above mentioned measures the following points must be noted:
1. Check the connection govemor-regulating linkage. With governor output position “10” the regulating linkage
must allow being pressed to L.I. position “0” (see also sheet 5808).
2. If bearings and/or parts of the running gear have been replaced or removed for inspection, their lubricating oil
supply should be assured as far as possible at normal oil pressure (see sheet 0358). During the engine operation
following such measures it is recommended to check these parts for abnormal heating. For these checks follow-
ing commissioning the engine should be stopped at first after short intervals then after longer inter-vals SOthat
the temperature of respective parts cari be compared with those which had been removed or replaced respec-
tively.
3. Regarding the fitting of new pistons, piston rings and cylinder liners please refer to section 0360 “Running-in”.
4. Check whether the passages for charge air and exhaust gases are free.
5. Should conservation oil have been filled in to preserve some components or the whole engine, drain this oil off
and replace it with normal engine oil as recommended on sheet 0356-4.

Starting a Marine Engine
The engine may only be started when the fuel pump settings, the governor settings, the adjustment of the safety
shut-off and of the regulating linkage are in order.
If the engine has been stopped for some time, the instructions of the section ‘Preparation for Star-t-up’ (sheet
0357-2) must be followed. We recommend to turn the engine in any case at least two revolutions with opened indi-
cator cocks, with the turning gear. If the engine has been stopped only very shortly this procedure cari be omitted.
2. Check whether the operating lever of the turning gear is in the disengaged position and blocked.
3. Checkwhether the shut-off valves for starting air and control air are open and whether sufficient air pressure is
available.
4. Set the pressure for the required speed (r.p.m.) on the pre-selector (about 2 bar).
5. a) Local controI stand: Press hand lever to STAR??-position until the engine fiies evenly then put hand lever
back to RUN-position.
or
b) Remote control: Hand lever on the local control stand must be in AUTO-position. Press starting button
until the engine fires evenly.
(By starting failure the starting air is shut-off automatically after 10 seconds).
6. Raise the engine speed slowly until the operating speed is reached. Full load should only be reached when the
operating media have reached the specified values (see sheet 0358).
7. Watch the turbocharger speed (as a function of the load) and compare it with the values in the test report.

RUNNINC INSTRUCTIONS
Starting of stationary engines
The engine may only be started when the fuel-injection pumps, the governor,
the safety tut-outs, and the control linkages are correctly set.
Where the engine has been out of service for a long period, the information
in section "Preparation for starting" has to be followed (sec page 0357-Z).
We recommend that the engine be turned through at least two revolutions by
the turning gear except in those cases where the engine has been stopped for
only a short period.
TO start, the following things have to be done:
2. Check that the turning gear is disengaged and that the operating lever
is locked.
3. Check that the shut-off valves for starting and control air are open and
that sufficient pressure is available.
5. Bring the engine slowly up to the necessary speed. (Extended running with-
out load should be avoided however).
7. Load up the engine steadily and only put onto full load when the lubricat-
ing oil and cooling water have reached service temperature.
9. Check the turbocharger speed and compare this with the value in the accep-
tance records (the speed depends on the load).
10. The load indicator may not be allowed to go above that shown in the accep-
tance records at any given load.
Apart from the general instructions given here, the instructions for machine-
ry-space ventilation, water cooling, re-filling of fuel and water tanks, etc.
have to be followed. The starting air receivers have also to be topped up

Manoeuvring a Reversible Marine Engine
Manoeuvring
Al1 manoeuvring events are described in detail in the leaflet “Engine Control” Operating Instructions. Some gen-
erai recommendations for manoeuvring are listed below:
1. In installations where the shut-off valve of the starting air containercan remain closed during normal operation,
this valve should be opened for the manoeuvring periods. If the engine is shut-off or if manoeurvring is not
required for a longer period, the air receiver shut-off valve cari be closed again.
2. When reversing please keep in mind that the engine requires some time for this. The camshaft must be shifted to
the other end position, and before a new start the engine speed must drop below 100 r.p.m.
3. The starting button has to be pressed down until the engine runs smoothly on fuel.
4. The camshaft cannot be shifted if the fuel linkage is not in the position ZERO or if the speed is too low (below 20
r.p.m.).
When operating at low speed the cooling water inlet temperature to the charge air cooler should be as high as pos-
sible, SOthat the engine does not cool down too much.
When the propeller is emerged and submerged constantly in heavy seas the engine speed should be reduced. When
the propeller emerges there is a risk that the engine is shut off by the mechanical overspeed trip.

RUNNING INSTRUCTIONS
Running on Overload
- The engine cari be operated at the guaranteed overload for a limited period
of time. In the absence of any special agreement, this is restricted to
110% of the full load output.
- With correctly adjusted fuel pump control, the full load position of the
load indicator should not be exceeded, or only for a short period of time
during normal operation.
- The overload position of the load indicator should only be attained in ex-
ceptional circumstances and for no longer than one hour. The engine speed,
load indicator and the exhaust temperature before the turbine(s) are so-
called "yardsticks" for the engine load.
*
- The maximum admissible overload position of the load indicator is laid
down in the acceptance tria1 report for the engine, and may not be exceeded.
The same applies as well to the maximum admissible temperature before the
turbine(s) which may not exceed the maximum admissible values under any
circumstances.
- The maximum fuel charge limit stop of the regulating linkage set during
acceptance trials 1s not to be moved under any circumstances.
- When operating with overload, special cape should be given to the proper
functioning of the cylinder lubrication system.
- Tbe outlet temperatures for water and oil may not exceed the specified ma-
ximum admissible values (sec acceptance tria1 report and Table 0358).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Shutting-down a Marine Engine
If it is not necessaIy to shutdown the engine immediately for compelling reasons, the engine load should be reduced
s u c c e s s i v e 1y in order to avoid extreme thermal stressing of the component material.
Following shut-down of the engine, the cylinder cooling water system and the lube oil pumps are to be lef? in opera-
tion for at least 10 minutes to allow an equalization of temperatures within the engine.
Leakages on the engine observed during its operation are to be remedied as quickly as possible after shut-down.
The engine running gear should be turned in reasonably short intervals (in dly climates weekly, in very moist cl&

RUNNING INSTRUCTIONS
Shutting-down a Stationary Engine
If it is not absolutely essential to stop the engine immediately, the engine has to be taken off load slowly in order to
avoid extreme thermal stressing.
After the altemator has been taken off the grid, we recommend that the engine be allowed to run at idling speed for
approximately 5 minutes until even temperatures are spread throughout the engine.
This short running period at idling speed is particularly important for those engines being supplied by their own
engine-driven pumps otherwise cooling and lubrication would be abruptly stopped. Where available, the stand-by
pumps should be put into operation for at least another 10 minutes.
Wherecooling and lubrication is supplied by electric-driven pumps, we recommend that they be kept running for at
least 10 minutes after the engine has been stopped.
Any leaks observed while the engine was running should be cured as soon as possible.
The engine running gear should be turned in reasonably short intervals (in dry climates weekly, in very moist cli-
mates daily), the procedure being:
- Open indicator valves;
- Start the stand-by or pre-lubricating oil pumps;
- Rotate the crank of the cylinder lubricators about 10 f 20 tums (see also sheet 0357-2);
- Start turning gear and rotate crankshaft at least two revolutions.

OPEHATING INSTROCTIONS
After a major overhaul, it is advisable to run the engine for some time with
a coupled propeller at about 60% full load. This enables the usual checks on
the running gear to be carried out at the least inconvenience.
If, however, the ship's berth does net permit such a mooring trial, the engi-
ne cari be operated at smaller loads with disengaged transmission. The follow-
ing precautions are to be taken because of the danger of the ship running
away:
1. Once the engine overhaul has been completed, make sure that the fuel pump
control system and the other control systems function properly before the
engine is started up.
2. Before the engine is put into operation, check the pneumatic overspeed
cutout for proper operation as well.
5. The engine may not be started if the governor is disconnected from the re-
gulating linkage, the governor is blocked, incorrectly adjusted or in a
defective condition.
7. When operating the engine with a disengaged transmission, one of the machi-
nists is to remain constantly on the control stand SO that he cari interve-
ne immediately should this prove necessary. The engine speed is to be kept
under constant observation.
8. During operation, one should also listen for any unusual noises.
9. Critical speeds at which the engine vibrates are to be avoided. Such speed
ranges are to be passed through as quickly as possible.

I leavy fuel oils, as they arc supplied today l’or hurning in Diesel cngincs. rcquire a carcful trcatment which makes
thc installation ofa suitablc plant ncccssary. According to prcscnt techniques thc most cffcctivc rcmoval ofsolids
and watcr from liquid fuels is achicvcd by ccntrifugal scparators.
1. Treatment of heavy fuel oils, treatment plant, present-day treatment equipment and their use
Heavyfuel oils arc mostlycontaminatcdwith solids and watcr. Should unclcaned or insufficicntly trcatcd hcavy fuel
oil enter thc engine, it cari cause unacceptably rapid wcar on engine components like piston rings, cylinder liners,
fuel pumps, fuel valves etc. Furthermore excessive deposits cari be formcd in the combustion spaccs.
Particularlysodium in the fuel oil (which originates from sea water) leads to formation of deposits on pistons and in
the turbocharger. For this reason, water must be separated carefully out of the fuel oil.
Settling tanks are used for the first steps of treatment. However, they only effect a coarse separation, particularly of
free water from the heavy fuel oil. To keep them effective settling tanks must have the sludge and water, accumulat-
ing in the tank bottom, periodically drained off.
The main cleaning is effected by carefully dimensioned and correctly adjusted and operated centrifuges. Modern
designs rendersuperfluous the previously necessary adaptation of the gravity discs tovarying densities of heavy fuel
oils in use. Modern machines automatically expel the sludge from the centrifuge. For modem power plants, de-
signed for burning heavy fuel oils of the lowest grade such centrifuges are an absolute necessity. This applies in par-
ticular when heavy fuel oils with densities of 991 kg/ m3 and higher and with viscosities of 700 cSt/SO”Cmust be used.
Homogenizers cari improve combustion properties to some extent, theywill however be of no help in the removal of
solids from the fuel oil. They are therefore to be regarded solely as additional equipment in the treatment plant.
Filters hold backsolids of a specified size and shape. They cari,, however, practically not hold back water. Water Will
partly even cause accellerated fouling of filters.
Treatment of heavy fuel oil, heavy fuel oii and Diesel fuel oil separation (see diagram sheet 0357-20)
As a result of experience we strongly recommend the use of centrifuges for the treatment of heavy fuel oils, and as
already mentioned, preferably centrifuges of a modern design and make, which work without gravity discs, and, at
the desired throughput able to effectively clean poor quality fuel oilsof high density (max. 1010 kg/m3 at 15’C) and
of high viscosity (max. 700 cSt/SO”C) and ensure continuous unattended on board working of the separator u,nits.
In older treatment plants one finds occasionally centrifuges with replaceable gravity discs, which must in each case
be adapted to the density of the heavy fuel oil to be treated. The correct size of the gravity disc has to be selected in
accordance with the specifications of the respective manufacturer. It is further recommended to operate such cen-
trifuges as purifiers with clarifiers arranged in series.
The layout of the complete treatment plant must conform to our recommendations. For its operation the instruc-
tions of the centrifuge makers are to be followed in the first place.
Theseparating effect, i.e. the cleaningeffect depends on the throughput and on the viscosityof the heavy fuel oil. As
a general rule, the smaller the throughput (m3/hr or Itr/hr) and the lower the viscosity of the heavy fuel oil, the better
the separating effect. It necessitates heating the heavy fuel oil before it enters the centrifuge and maintaining the
working temperature at a constant level within a tolerance of -r 2°C. The minimum pre-heating temperature re-
quired depends on the viscosity at 5O”Cof the heavy fuel oil in question. This temperature cari be read off theviscos-
ityjtemperature diagram, please also refer to the instructions of the makers of your centrifuge. For design reasons
the admissible pre-heating temperature is sometimes limited to 98 2 2°C.
The sludge removed by centrifuging must be removed periodically from the separator bowl. In the case of self-
cleaning centrifuges the sequence of the emptying process may be controlled automatically but even in such a plant
the correct function and the frequency of proceedings must be kept under control by the operating personnel. Of
utmost importance is the unimpeded drain of the sludge from the bowl, SO that unacceptably high back pressure
does not impair the function of separation and thereby of cleaning the heavy fuel oil. This point must be absolutely
assured in operation by periodical inspections.

In the described plant the complete fuel system is pressurized, SOthat any water contained in the fuel does not evap-
orate at the temperature required for the heavy fuel oil.
The low pressure feed pump 16 draws heavy fuel oil from the daily tank 11, when the valve 13 is in the respective
position, and delivers it to the buffer unit 19. From here the high pressure booster pump 20 draws and feeds the
heavy fuel oil via end-heatcr 21 and filter 1 to the injection pumps of the engine. The delivery capacity of the high
pressureboosterpump20is a [email protected] not used by the injec-
tion pumps of the engine flows back to the buffer unit 19.
The pressure required in the system is set on the pressure regulating valve 14, the pressure before the injection
pumps on the pressure retaining valve 5.
The pump 16 feeds from the heavy fuel oil daily tank 11 only the amount of fuel used up by the engine. The contents
of the heavy fuel oit daily tank 11 must if necessary be heated, to permit its being pumped. Authorities’ safety re-
quirements, however, restrict the tcmperature of heavy fuel oil in the daily tank 11.
Only the amount of fuel oil circulating from the buffer unit 19 to the injection pumps and back to the buffer unit
must bc heated to the tcmpcrature required for the injection. This is done by the end-hcatcr 21. The heating of the
buffer unit 19 and of the rcturn piping cari,, if necessary, be included into this circuit.
The treatment plant should be SOarranged by fittingof non-returnvalves, that no heavy fuel oil cari enter the Diesel
oil daily tank 12.

If thc fuel viscosity is too high, cxccssivc prcssurc is produced in thc injection systcm which may cause parts of thc
injection pumps or thcir drive to be damagcd or cause thc rclicfvalves to opcn. At thc samc time the atomization of
the L’ucloil is impaircd, which rcsults in incomplctc combustion.
Thc viscosity of fuel oils cari bc reduccd by hcating. Shcct 0X7-21 shows a typical rclationship bctwecn viscosity
and tcmpcraturc for various hcavy fuel oils.
Shect 0357-21 also shows thc temperature rcquired to lower the viscosity of thc respective heavy fuel oil to the
value required at the inlet to the injection pumps. This temperature is gcnerallycalled “Required pre-heating tem-
perature”.
The pre-heating of the heavy fuel oil is to be regulated by a viscosimeter. TO exclude irregular operation vapour
formation in the injection pump must be prevented. For this reason the pre-heated heavy fuel oil is led to the injec-
tion pumps under pressure by the high pressure booster pump 20. This pressure (see sheet 0358) must be set on the
pressure regulating valve 5.
The engine cari be started on Diesel oil or on heavy fuel oil, and manoeuvred on both. For a start on heavy fuel oil
sufficient heating energy must be available. If this is not available the start must be made on Diesel oil. Aswitch over
to heavy fuel oil may only be made when the required viscosity is attained. If sufficient heating energy is not assured,
operation must again be switched back to Diesel oil before shutting the engine down for a longer period.
When work on the engine’s fuel system is scheduled at the next stop, we recommend switching to Diesel oil at an
early time to flush the system through.
The daily tanks 11 and 12 as well as the buffer unit 19 must be de-watered and de-sludged at regular intervals, for
which the drain cocks are used. TO keep them effective, tanks must have the sludge and water, accumulating in the
tank bottom, periodically drained off.
The viscosity of the heavy fuel oil before the inlet to the injection pumps must be brought to the required pre-heat-
ing temperature (see also paragraph 3). (See sheet 0357-21).
Furthermore it would be of advantage to circulate the bearing lubricatingoil about 4 hours before the start through
its separator.
For continuous operation, the temperature of the fuel oil must be kept at the nominal value (refer to “Required
pre-heating temperature”). The cooling water of the injection nozzles must be kept at the specified temperature
over the whole load range (see sheet 0358).

Before changingovcr it is ncccssary toswitch-on thc hcatingof thc buffer unit 19, thc cnd-hcater 21, fuel indicator
filter 1 and of the fuel piping. After reversing thc 3-way valve 13, in the buffer unit 19 a mixture of Diesel oil and
heavy fuel oil is formed. The viscosimeter controls the end-heater 21 in such a way that thc viscosity (pre-heating
temperature) of the mixture is maintained. Thc hcating should take place slowly (max. lS”C/min.).
The heating to the fuel filter and fuel piping should be kept on at Ieast till the required pre-heating temperature,
read on the thermometer on the engine, has been attained.
It is recommendable not to exceed 75% CMCR Ioad during switch-over and until the required pre-heating temper-
aturc has been reached.
For the switch-over the 3-way valve 13 must first be turned. In the buffer unit 19 a mixture of heavy fuel oil and
Diesel oil Will then be formed. The viscosity of the circulating mixture drops rapidly as the Diesel oil share in-
creases.
It is advisable to change over from heavy fuel oil to Diesel oil operation at less than 50% CMCR power.

Investigations into the causes of crankcase explosions with diesel engines have shown that they cari only occur under
particular conditions and, therefore, are extremly rare.
The oil mist in the crankcase is inflammable over avery narrow range of mixture only. Weaker or richer mixtures do
not ignite. Spontaneous ignition is theoretically and practically impossible. There must always be an extraneous
cause to set off ignition such as hot engine components. Only under these circumstances and the presence of a criti-
cal mixture ratio of oil mist and air cari an explosion occur.
The engine is equipped, as required, with an oil mist detector (see sheet 9314), which monitors continuously the
density of oil mist in the crankcase and triggers an alarm or stops the engine (depends on the installation) if the mist
exceeds a limit of admissible density.
Good engine maintenance and deliberate action in cases of an alarm rule out explosions to a large degree.
Attention! Should the engine be shut down (manually or by the monitoring unit) because of a suspected heat-
ing-up of a running gear, then neither the covers nor the casings of the crankcase may be opened im-
mediately. The heated areas must cool during at least 20 minutes, to prevent ignition from access of
fresh air. Till the heated parts have cooled, the danger of an explosion is possible just the same. TO
prevent accidents no person may therefore stand in the vicinity of the explosion flaps of the crankcase
doors. Fire extinguishing equipment should be kept close at hand when the crankcase or engine hous-
ing is subsequently opened.

EMERGENCY OPERATION
The regulating rack of the fuel pump is to be withdrawn to zero-delivery and arrested in this position with the special
spacer (tool No. 9455.11) (see Fig. 5501-21).
Should an engine have to be operated with one tut-out fuel injection pump, one has to consider that vibration prob-
lems might arise. It is therefore essential in every case toverify by what degree the speed and load must be reduced
SOthat no consequential damage may be caused by the formation of resonant vibrations.
These investigations have been carried out by the engine manufacturer when a11the components for the vibration
calculation are known to them (engine specification, coupling, gearbox, shaft power and propeller). The vibration
calculation is included in the engine Documentation, their instructions must be strictly followed.
When operating over a long period with a eut-out fuel pump, the indicator valve on the respective cylinder head is to
be opened hourly to allow any accumulated oil to be emitted. Opening the indicator valve must be done with the
utmost tare, and the oil spray to be caught by suitable means or to be directed towards the drain tank. TOprevent any
intensive lubrication of the non-operating piston, the lube oil feed cari be reduced. This is effected by setting the
adjusting screws of the cylinder lubricating pump serving the respective lubrication points to minimum feed (see
sheet 7210 and 7220). When resuming normal operation set the adjusting screws to the original position again.
Should an engine have to be operated with a removed driving mechanism the same conditions apply as described
above.
For operation with removed driving mechanism the following work must be cam.ed out:
Remove piston with connecting rod and connecting rod head.
. Block lubricating oil outlet from crankpin with suitable bandage.
Fit cylinder head without push rods to rocker arms.
Block starting air pipe between flame arrestor housing and cylinder head.
Disconnect control air to starting valve and plug pipe with a closing piece.
Cut out fuel injection pump concerned (see sheet 5501).
In both cases where the engine must be run with cylinders tut-out, it may no longer be operated at full power.
TO prevent a thermal overloading of the engine the full load position of the load indicator (LI) or the maximum
exhaust gas temperatures before turbine (as per sheet 0358) may under no circumstance be exceeded. Furthermore
the colour of the exhaust gases must always be observed, as the engine should not be operated with dark exhaust.
The engine power and engine speed have to be correspondingly reduced, keeping in mind any barred-speed ranges
at critical speeds.
When individual cylinders are tut-out the turbocharger cari start ‘surging’. This makes itself known by a loud ‘bay-
ing/panting’ sound. Surging cari be detected visually at the pressure gauge as large fluctuations in the scavenge air
pressure.
Should the ‘surging’ occur at short inter-vals or even continuously, the speed (with fixed pitch propeller installa-
tions) or the propeller pitch (with controllable pitch propeller installations) has to be suitably reduced.
Operation with one or more running gears removed should only be practised in extreme cases of emergency, i.e.
where there is no other possibility for the vesse1 to proceed under its own steam.

1. General
- A careful graduated and sufficiently prolonged running-in is the basis for further satisfactory service, well
sealing compression rings and modest wear of cylinder liners, piston skirts and piston rings.
- The re-use of second hand piston rings is N 0 T permissible!
- Rotational speeds prohibited because of torsional vibrations must be avoided.
- It is presupposed thaL the engine is in full operational readiness and that controls and monitoring function
perfectly. The same is to be the case with the installation and ancillary equipment.
- Running-in additives in the lubricating oil or fuel oil are not foreseen.
The engine is equipped with a 1o a d d e p e n d e n t cylinder lubricating system, i.e. depending on the engine
capacitycorrespondingto the loadpositionof the regulating shaft, the cylinder is supplied with a larger specific
lubricant quantity (at 25% load) or a reduced specific lubricant quantity (at 100% load).
For the running-in period of the individual cylinder components or of the complete engine, the lubricating oil
quantity must be larger. TOachieve this the setting screws 2 on the cylinderlubricators 8 corresponding in tum to
each cylinder have to be set to maximum feed stroke (tum anti-clockwise to the stop X = 0) (see also sheet
7220).

When it is absolutely essential that the engine be brought back into service with a faster load increase than in the
preceding table, the full charge of the cylinder to be run in should be reduced to 50% for at least 4 hours and to 75%
for a further 6 hours.
The limiting of the fuel charge cari be done by putting a distance piece on the regulating rod between the fuel injec-
tion pump housing and clamp ring of the respective cylinder (similar to what is done to tut out one fuel injection
pump completely, see Fig. 5501-21).
The barred speed and load ranges for service with one or more cylinders not firing have also to be adhered to when
running under the previously mentioned conditions (see sheet 0359-9).
At the same time, the engine must not be allowed to run with surging turbocharger orwith too high exhaust temper-
atures.
After completion of the running-in programme the lubricating oil supply to the overhauled cylinder has to be
kept at the increased flow for about another 100 operating hours at service load. Only after this time have the
setting screws (E) to be turned back in stepswithin 24 hours to the normal Xvalue as specified in the setting table
(see also sheet 7210).

ENGINE HOUSING
The engine housing 1 is of grey cast iron. The transverse partitions carry the bearing saddles for the crankshaft and
are drilled with passages ‘OE’ supplying lubricating oil to the bearings. The housing is open at the bottom for fitting
the crankshaft. The bearing caps are fixed to the engine housing with two vertical main bearing studs each. The
crankshaft main bearing caps are marked together with the engine housing (please refer to ‘M’ on illustration
1001-20). A force fit between engine housing and bearing cap is provided by two transverse tie rods 5 arranged
horizontally. In this way the bottom, open part of the housing is given the necessary stiffening. The crankcase is
accessible through fitting and inspection openings on both sides.

The crankshaft main bearing is equipped with an Upper bearing shell6 and a lower bearing shell6a. The Upper and
lower bearing shells are not identical and therefore not interchangeable.
The upper bearing shells have several holes and a central groove through which the lubricating oil enters the bear-
ing from the rear side. The lower bearing shells are completely even with the exception of a short oil inlet groove.
The crankshaft main bearing studs are pre-tensioned hydraulically (please refer to the Maintenance Manual, sheet
1201).
Transverse tie rods screwed into the crankshaft bearing cap from each side are equally tightened by hydraulic pre-
tensioning.
Damaged crankshaft journals cari be reground up to a limited undersize, for which bearing shells with a smaller
bore are to be used (please refer to the Maintenance Manual sheet 1201).

The crankshaft thrust bearing guides the crankshaft axially maintainingits designed position. The Upper and lower
bearing shell of the thrust bearing are identical. The same bearing shells are ah.0 used as the Upper bearing shell for
the crankpin bearing.
The lubricating oil reaches the load bearing parts of the thrust bearing through bores in the crankshaft leading from
the first crank.
The thickness of the thrust ring halves determines the axial clearance of the crankshaft (please refer to the clear-
ance table in the Maintenance Manual).
As it concerns the same shells as those in the crankpin bearing of the connecting rod, please observe the information
given under group 3302 of the Maintenance Manual.
Should it become necessary to re-machine the shaft collars on the thrust bearing shaft, then the original axial clear-
ance must be maintained by fitting thicker thrust ring halves (please refer to the corresponding table in group 1202
of the Maintenance Manual).

The safety (relief) valves or explosion flap valves are mounted to the covers 3 of the crankcase (see illustration
1603-20 Figs. ‘A’and ‘B’). The number of covers with safety valves as well as their arrangement is determined by the
requirements of the classification societies and may therefore not be altered.
In case of a possible crankcase explosion the safety valve already opens at a differential pressure (interior/exterior)
of 0.1 bar and allows the hot gases or flames to escape sideways. By the restoring force of the compression spring 9
the valve is immediately shut again by means of the spring carrier 8, thus shutting off the entry of fresh air into the
crankcase and preventing further explosions.
If a crankcase explosion has been observed the engine must be stopped immediately. Do not open any covers to the
crankcase until the engine has cooled down and allow no one in the vicinity of the safety valves. Later the cause of
the crankcase explosion has to be found.
Depending on the engine equipment various makes of safety valve may be fitted on the engine.
The caver 3 must always be fitted with both feet ‘F’ at the bottom.

CYLINDER LINER
The Upper part of the cylinder liner is water cooled. From the cooling water space ‘KW’ in the engine housing the
water is led over into the cylinder head through tangential bores aslant the cylinder centreline.
Through two axial bores in the bottom end of the cylinder liner, cylinder lubricating oil is pumped up in pulsations
by the cylinder lubricator.
Through small connecting bores ‘OA the oil is spread onto the running surface of the cylinder liner.
On engines with ‘inner lubrication’ the lubrication of the running surface is taking place through the piston (see
sheet 3401).
With this alternative, the cylinder liners are executed without longitudinal bores in the lower part of the liner (see
Fig. 2105 - 22).
Remark: When replacing a cylinder liner take tare that one of the same design execution is fitted to ensure a
Perfect cylinder lubrication.
No gasket is required between the cylinder liner landing face and the engine casing as the seal is achieved metalli-
cally.
The centring piece 7 and the screw 8 fix the cylinder liner in a specific position in the engine casing. They also pre-
vent the cylinder liner being lifted out of the engine casing when the cylinder head is removed.

CYLINDER HEAD
Every cylinder is equipped with a separate cylinder head, which provides the Upper closure of the combustion space
and which also contains the various valves.
- two inlet valves with ROTOCAP
- two exhaust valves with ROTOCAP or TURNOMAT
- one central fuel injection valve
- one starting valve
- one relief valve
- one indicator valve
The cylinder head is cooled by water, which enters from the bottom via the cylinder liner and flows through various
bores (bore-cooled type).
The cooling water leaves the cylinder head through an outlet bore at the top, from which it is collected and led away
through a collecting pipe.
The inlet and the exhaust valve differ, and also their seats are n o t identical. The valves are suitably marked at the
top end of the spindle (see sheet 2750).
The indicator valve screwed into the cylinder head seals off the indicator bore which connects the combustion
chamber to the atmosphere. Indicator valves are required for measuring the compression and firing pressures dur-
ing operation (see also sheet 2745).
Usually a relief valve 51 is fitted to the cylinder head (see Fig. 2701-24 ‘A’),which is set to an opening pressure
(stamped on the housing). On engines for certain stationary plants the relief valve is not a necessity and it has there-
fore been replaced by a threaded plug 50 (see Fig. 2701-24 ‘B’).
The cylinder head is positioned on the engine housing by a centring pin (see sheet 2105).

ROCKER ARMS
(Please refer to Fig. 2705-20)
The rocker arms actuating the inlet and exhaust valves of every cylinder are
contained in the rocker arm cowling, which is fastened to the cylinder head.
The main rocker arms are actuated in turn by the cams on the camshaft through
push rods and act directly onto the auxiliary rocker arms.
The rocker arms are pivoted floatingly on their shafts. The shafts are again
pivoted floatingly in the rocker arm housing.
The lubrication by pressure oil is achieved through interna1 bores, from the
engine casing, through the cylinder head into the rocker arm cowling.
From bores in the rocker arms oil also flows to the bal1 head cups above the
valve spindles and push rods.
The vent valve (item 20,21,22) allows the air to escape quickly from the lu-
bricating bores.
The rocker arms cari be removed and fitted without separating the rocker arm
cowling from the cylinder head (please refer to the maintenance manual).

Each fuel stud 11 is equipped with a pressure valve 16, which ensures that during operation the fuel pressure before
the fuel injection nozzle is maintained as high as possible. This prevents to a great extent cavitation erosion in the
fuel injection valve.
Possible leakages between the pressure valve and the fuel delivery connection or between pressure vaive and hp-
fuel pipe are collected and led along the protection pipe 3 through the fuel injection pump into the fuel leakage
collecting pipe.
The protection pipe around the fuel hp-pipe is designed to prevent fire hazard in case of a bursting fuel pipe. As the

The starting air valve fitted in the cylinder head cari be removed or fitted as an assembly. Its function is controlled
pneumatically by air from the starting air distributor (please refer to group 4301). It admits starting air (30 bar) to
the cylinders in certain positions of the piston. The control timing i.e. opening or closing of the valve in relation to
the crank position is entered in the setting table, which is supplied with the engine.
Function
As long as the engine does not receive the starting command and there is no air pressure in the starting air pipe, the
control valve 4 and the working piston 5 screw-connected to the valve spindle 7 are pressed upwards by the Springs 9
and 10 respectively. That means the valve is closed (please refer to the left side of illustration 2728-20).
The schematic sketches in illustration 2728-21 show the starting air valve in the positions corresponding to the
following situations:
Figure 1 - The starting air pipe, therefore also the space ‘H’is under air pressure, but no staring command has
been received.
- Space ‘A’above the starting control valve 4 is without pressure.
- Equal pressure exists in the space ‘D’ and ‘F’ above and below the working piston 5. The starting
valve is shut.
Figure III - The control air from the starting air distributor presses the control valve 4 down.
- In the space ‘F’ the air pressure escapes below the working piston 5, the pressure built-up above the
piston 5 space ‘D’ pushes the piston with the valve spindle down, the valve 7 is open and starting air
enters the combustion chamber ‘R.
Figure IV - The air flow from the starting air distributor is interrupted.
- Space ‘A’is without pressure.
- The control valve 4 is pressed up by the spring 9.
- Staring air enters the space ‘F’ below the working piston 5 and equalizes the pressure in the spaces
‘D’ and ‘F’.
- Valve 7 is still open but closes immediately by the action of spring 10.

INDICATOR VALVE
Description
Each cylinder head 1 is equipped with an indicator valve 5 which seals off the indicator bore (connection of the
combustion chamber to the atmosphere). Indicator valves are required for measuring the compression and firing
pressures of a11cylinders during operation with the aid of the “peak pressure indicator” (tool No. 9408.14). The
indicator valve 1 must be opened by a separate handwhee18 (tool No. 9427.39).
Before measuring these pressures, the indicator valves are to be opened for a short period during operation SOthat
any existing residues of combustion in the indicator bores cari be ejected and thus not gain access to the measuring
device.
Attention! When opening the indicator valve 5 hot dirty gas is exhausted, which cari lead to injuries. For this rea-
son a sufficient distance must be kept from the hot gas outlet ‘HG’ when the indicator valve is opened.
During the measurement operation with the “peak pressure indicator”, the respective indicator valve is to be
opened completely.
Standard values for compression and maximum ignition pressures must be taken from the shop tria1 report for the
respective load and speed.
Even if measurements are not being carried out, it is advisable during continuous operation to open the indicator
valves for a short period once a day in order to prevent the possibility of the indicator bore from coking up.
TO enable the engine to be turned over in a more favourable manner during overhaul and preparatory work for
starting etc., the indicator valves are always to be opened. This Willenable liquids (water, fuel, oil etc. ), which have
collected in the combustion space during longer standstill periods, to be ejected when the engine is tumed over.

On top of the cylinder head two pairs of inlet and exhaust valves are arranged behind each other across the engine
longitudinal axis (see sheet 2701).
The opening and closing timing is controlled via the valve drive by the cams on the camshaft (see sheet 4401). The
valves are again shut by the restoring forces of the valve Springs.
In consideration of their dissimilar thermal loads, inlet and exhaust valves are differently executed. For easy distinc-
tion the valve spindles are therefore marked with “INLET” and “EXHAUST” respectively.
The inlet and exhaust valves are equipped with rotating devices which render the following advantages:
- by a short rotation during the valve stroke, combustion residues are wiped away;
- the temperature is equally distributed around the valve Seat;
- longer service life of valve spindles and valve seats.
Inlet valve
For both power ranges the inlet valve is provided with a ROTOCAP rotating device. It produces a rotating move-
ment during valve opening.
The valve seat angle is d. 30”.
Exhaust valve
For this power range the standard equipment of the exhaust valve is the ROTOCAP rotating device. It produces a
rotating movement during valve o p e n i n g.
The valve seat angle is 30”~.
The exhaust valves for the high power range are equipped with the TURNOMAT rotating device. Tbe necessary
rotating movement in this rotating device is produced during valve c 1o s i n g.
The vale seat angle is 45” &
The location for fitting inlet or exhaust valves respectively is shown in Fig. 2701-22.

When conditions demand it, the crankshaft is fitted with a torsional vibration damper. This is to reduce torsional
vibrations which may be dangerous for the crankshaft.
Depending upon the demands, either a fluid damper or a leaf spring damper is required, each of which is bolted
onto the crankshaft FREE END.
Positioning marks ‘M’ on the flanges of the crankshaft and torsional vibration damper permit the latter to be re-
fitted in exactly the same position if ever it has to be removed.
The following is a short functional description of different damper types :
1. Fluid damper HOLSET, HASSE + WREDE and STE (see Fig. 3130-20)
The damper consists of a housing into which is installed a free-floating damping mass. The housing is rigidly
connected to the crankshaft and hermetically sealed. A gap exists between the housing and the damping mass
which is filled with silicone oil of a specific viscosity.
- The damper requires no outside lubrication.
- The torque is transmitted to the damping mass by the friction of the silicone oil.
When torsional vibration occurs, there is relative motion between the housing and the damping mass.
The resulting sheer stresses (friction) in the silicone oil bring about a damping of the torsional vibrations.
- The work consumed by friction generates heat. When for any reason the torsional vibration damper is over-
loaded, the silicone oil overheats which leads to a change in the viscosity of the silicone oil. When this hap-
pens, the torsional vibration damper cari no longer fulfil its function and cari even lead to damage of the
damper itself.
- Maintenance:
TOcheck the silicone oil, therefore, samples have to be drawn from the damper at prescribed intervals (see
Maintenance Manual sheet 3130).
The damper consists of an inner part 12 which carries an outer part 13 (damping mass). The inner part is rigidly
connected to the crankshaft. Between each of these parts are radially arranged leaf spring packs 14 which are
restrained at the outer ends. The spring packs form, together with the inner and outer parts, chambers which are
filled with oil.
- The damper requires lubricating oil from the engine pressure circuit for both lubrication and cooling. Thisoil
j being taken from the circuit along axial hole 11 in the outside crankshaft bearing journal (at FREE END).
- The torque is transmitted to the outer part 13 by the flexible leaf spring packs 14.
When torsional vibration occurs, there is relative motion between the inner part 12 and the outer part 13
(damping mass).
The oil is forced from one chamber to another through restrictingslits thus damping the torsionalvibrations.
- Maintenance:
(Please refer to the documentation of the manufacturer)
)
zA4os
3130- 1
Inner part 21 of the damper is screw fastened to crankshaft part 27. Outer part 22 is connected elastically via
sleeve Springs 24 and cari move in conformitywith the torsional vibrations. The outer part and the screw fastened
side discs 23 constitute the “seismic mass”.
Sleeve spring packs 24 are arranged between the inner and outer part and are compressed by the torsion of the
damper.
- For lubrication and cooling the damper requires oil from the engine circuit, which issupplied through a longi-
tudinal bore 26 in the outermost crankshaft journal (at the FREE END) by the oil circuit.
- Through radial drillings the individual spring chambers are supplied with pressure oil. Al1 hollow spaces of
the damper are thus filled with oil. Through relative movement at the spring circle, a hydraulic damping is
produced by oil displacement.
Additionally frictional damping is produced within the spring packs. The essential damping capacity is, how-
ever, produced by oil displacement, i.e. oil is pressed through small gaps between side discs 23 and inner part
21.
- Maintenance:
Indications on inspection and maintenance work cari be gathered from the documentation of the manufac-
turer.

For barring the crankshaft or moving the running gear (piston, connecting rod
etc.) a turning gear is provided. It is driven by an electric motor and is
arranged on the driving side of the engine.
The pinion of the turning gear engages in the gear rim of the flywheel or
indexing wheel.
A dia1 and pointer permits determining in which position every piston
stands.
For precise barring the hand wheel coupled to the electric motor caribe
manipulated.
The pinion 17 which caribe shifted axially is driven by two worm gear
drives running in an oil bath and arranged in series.
The operating lever 5 serves to shift the pinion 17, to engage and dis-
engage it in the flywheel gear teeth. In its end position it is locked
by the locking pin 6. It controls a starting blocking valve, also in some
installations a coupling blocking valve SO that the engine cannot be
started with engaged pinion or be driven by another engine through coupling
and gear box.
The oil quantity in the casing is 18 litres. For oil quality, 'please refer
to section 0356 "lubricating oil".

The piston bearing is situated on the Upper spherical end of the connecting rod. This bearing is part of the working
piston and therefore described on sheet 3401.
An Upper and lower bearing half is fitted to the crankpin bearing, which are of different design. In order to avoid
mistakes when fitting, each bearing half is provided with a positioning guide which is protruding only on one side of
a shell half. Concerning undersize bearing shells, please consult the Maintenance Manual sheet 3302/1.
The lubricating oil is fed through a drilling from the main journal to the crankpin and part of it flows through a
central bore in the connecting rod to the piston bearing.
The crankpin bearing is connected to the connecting rod by waisted studs which are tightened by hydraulic pre-ten-
sioning. The two crankpin bearing halves are similarly fastened together.
The compression shims 9 are fitted by the engine manufacturer in accordance with the cylinder power capacity and
for normal operation require no modifications. The corresponding shim thickness is recorded in the setting table.

PISTON
The piston is also called working or rotating piston, i.e. during operation it slowly rotates automatically through its
ZlXiS.
The rotation is achieved by a ratchet pawl, situated off centre to the connecting rod sphere, through a toothed rim
and a flexible member. The stroke of the pawl is a function of its distance to the sphere and swing angle of the con-
necting rod.
For each 67 turns of the crankshaft, the piston rotates one time through its axis.
Pistons for engines with an output of 720 kW per cylinder are equipped with oil spray nozzles. For piston cooling, the
oil is sprayed directly to the bore ends of the piston crown. The oil flow is indicated with arrows in illustration
3401-21. The ring space ‘RI? provides a constant oil supply to a11spray nozzles.
Pistonswith ‘inner lubrication’ are provided with lubricating bores ‘OB’ in the piston skirt 11, which are connected
by interna1 bores with the ring space ‘RR’ and assure a uniform cylinder lubrication.
Remark: Should the piston be replaced, please pay attention to the correct execution alternative (see also sheet
2105).

The fitted piston rings 1 and 2 guide the piston in the cylinder liner and seal the combustion space downwards. They
prevent an excessive contamination in the crankcase. The oil scraper ring 3 prevents excessive oil entering the com-
bustion space and thereby too high a carbon accumulation on the piston crown.
The arrangement of rings in the piston ring grooves is as shown on sheet 3402-20.
It is recommended to install only NSD original piston rings or rings manufactured by a specialized firm producing
them according to New Sulzer Diesel specifications.
Remark On pistons with ‘inner lubrication’ the oil scraper ring 3 is situated in the lowermost groove of the pis-
ton crown (see Fig. 3401-22).
For the removal and fitting of the rings, the piston ring expander from the engine tool kit must be used (please con-
sult the Maintenance Manual group 3402).

CAMSHAFT
1. The camshaft is driven by the gear wheel on the crankshaft via the camshaft drive. On the In-line engine it turns
in the same sense of rotation as the crankshaft. However on Vee-type engine the camshaft turns in the opposite
direction to the crankshaft. The camshaft makes one full turn for two turns of the crankshaft SOthat the fuel is
injected at the end of the compression stroke and that inlet and exhaust valves open or shut respectively at the
right moment.
The camshafts are bright steel shafts ground cylindrically, onto which the following parts are shrunk-on by the
pressure oil method:
TOremove these parts from the shaft or to change their position, it is necessary to utilize special tooling which is
not included in the standard tool kit.
It is recommended not to undertake such work without having obtained the required instructions from the
engine maker or without the assistance of a specialist.
2. The camshaft is supported at the engine ends and behveen the cylinders (see sheet 4216).
Depending on the method of operation and vibration calculation, the 9 f 18 cylinder engines are either
equipped with a flywheel disc or a vibration damper at the FREE END of each carnshaft.
Vibration damper:
The dampers of C. HASSE & WREDE CO. and STE make are specially adapted to the engine. Function and
maintenance is analogous to the liquid vibration damper on the crankshaft (see sheet 3130).
For damper cooling the cooling oil is injected through the spray nozzles 11.
3. Reversible camshaft:
In reversible engines a reversing servomotor is mounted on the Free End of each camshaft. The reversing servo-
motor shifts the camshaft axially. It also locates the camshaft in the proper end positions; reversible engines
therefore require no actual thrust bearing.

The cams are mounted onto the camshaft by compressive shrinking. They are correctly set in the engine manufac-
turer’s works and normally must not be reset. Should it for any reason become necessary to shift cams, then the
manufacturer must be consulted as arbitraty cam shifting cari lead to irreparable damage to cams and camshaft.
The correct position of the cams is laid down in the setting table for the cooled down engine. The crank angle read
off the graduation on the flywheel is valid as the opening begin after the respective valve has opened by 2.7 mm
minus the adjusted valve clearance. (Measured with dia1 gauge on the valve rotary device). The position of the fuel
pump cam is indicated in degrees before TDC and refers to the delivery start of the fuel pumps (please refer also to
the Maintenance Manual, sheet 5501/2).
Marks are engraved on both sides of the cams for the coarse setting, the indication for its application (EX= exhaust
valve, B= fuel pump, IN or P4-IN= inlet valve) and on the cams for non-reversible engines an arrow for the correct
sense of direction. (On cams for reversible engines the mounting position is unimportant as they are completely
symmetrical to the marks).
Remark On engines with VTR 354-P or VTR 454-P turbochargers, inlet cams with designation P4-In are to be
provided.
As opening begin the crank angle read off the graduation on the flywheel is valid, after which the respective valve
has opened by the minus 2.7 mm adjusted valve clearance.

CAMSHAFT BEARINGS
The camshaft is held in bearing shell pairs. The two bearing shells are not identical and must be fitted as follows:
- The upper bearing shell3 has a continuous oil groove.
- The lower bearing shell4 has only two short oil intake grooves.
TO prevent errors in fitting, pins 8 and 5 have been provided in the bearing caver 2.
On the reversible engine the reversing servomotors are mounted on the FREE END of the camshaft. The axial
guide for the camshaft is assured by a thrust bearing integrated in the reversing servomotor (please refer to illustra-
tion 4500-20a).
In the non-reversible engine the last camshaft bearing on the DRIVING END is equipped additionallywith locat-
ing ring halves 6 (please refer to illustration 4216-21). They keep the camshaft axially in the correct position. The
stop rings 7 are shrink-fitted onto the camshaft like the cams and the camshaft drive gear wheels.

General
The starting air distributor is driven off the camshaft. Its pur-pose is the control of the starting valves in the cylinder
heads. Illustration 4301-2 shows the startingvalves in the cylinder heads. Illustration 4301-2 shows the starting air
distributor of a reversible engine, illustration 4301-4 of a non-reversible engine.
The pilot control valves are actuated only during the starting process. At a11other times they are pressed outwards
by their Springs. This produces a clearance ‘S’ between the cam and the roller.
In the reversible engine the piston is pushed by control air, entering by connections X and Y, to the position corre-
sponding to the required direction of rotation. When the piston is in the right position, the valve passing starting air
from the shut-off valve to the starting air distributor is actuated through connection Z. (Please refer to schematic
diagram ‘Engine Control’ in the remote control documentation). One of the pilot control valves (illustration
4301-S) is then always in the position ‘d’ during starting process. The engine starts turning.
Function
In a11four figures starting air is present in the space ‘A’.The pilot control valves are pressed by it onto the cam.
Figure ‘a’ : The control air piping to the starting air valve is vented through connection ‘V’.
Figure ‘b’ : The pilot control valve shuts the piping to the starting valve.
Figure ‘c’ : The pilot control valve keeps the piping to the starting valve closed.
Figure ‘d’ : The connection between space ‘A’(starting air) and ‘SV’ (to the starting valve) has been opened.
Starting air opens the starting valve. Starting air flows from the shut-off valve through the starting
valve directly into the respective cylinder.

SHUT-OFF VALVE
The shut-off valve stops the flow of starting air to the air starting valves
until the pilot control valve receives the "starting couunand"and opens.
A non return valve 6 is also a part of the shut-off valve. It protects the
shut-off valve and the starting air pressure vesse1 from undesired pressure
impacts from the combustion space.
In installations where the plant is on full stand-by duty, and the engine
therefore turned over slowly at intervals, using.starting air, the shut-off
valve is equipped with a throttling non return valve (slow turning valve)
(please refer to sheet 4304-21, Fig. "A"). If these valves are not provided,
the respective openings are plugged on the shut-off valve.
In the ready to start engine, the space "A" is under air pressure which
enters the shut-off valve directly from the starting air pipe "ALL".
The same pressure exists in the spaces "B" from the pilot control valve
"VSV".
The force excerted by the air pressure on area "B" plus the spring
pressure being larger than on the ring area in "A", the (valve) piston
5 is closed.
At the command start, the pilot control valve lets the air escape from
the spaces "B". The piston 5 is pressed against the spring till the
stop and admits starting air from the space "A" into space 'Y". The
non return valve Piston 6 is pressed against its spring and admits the
air through the space "D" into the branchpipe to the starting valves.
The non return valve 6 remains open whilst starting air flows to the
engine cylinders.

The valve actuating gear opens and closes the inlet and exhaust valves at the required time. The actuation is trans-
mitted from cams arranged on the camshaft through push rods acting onto the main rocker arms. The latter actuate
the auxiliary rocker arms thus simultaneously opening either two inlet or hvo exhaust valves.
The valve closure is effected by spring action.
The lubricating oil for the valve actuation is fed to its moving parts through interna1 bores.
TO compensate for the heat expansion of the push rods and valve guides during operation, a relatively large clear-
ance must exist on the cold engine, between the valves and the rocker arms. These clearances must be checked peri-
odically and if necessary re-adjusted. For instructions regarding the adjustment procedure and the correct clear-
ances please refer to the Maintenance Manual, sheet 4401.

The reversing servo motor mounted on the free end of the engine (damper side)
shifts the camshaft for reversa1 of rotation to the end position corresponding
to the required sense of rotation of the engine. The cams, for the new sense
of rotation are thus moved under the rollers of the valve actuation and of
the fuel injection pumps.
The axial shifting of the camshaft is effected by the engine lub. oil pressu-
re, which, depending on the chosen sense of rotation acts on one or the other
side of piston 6.
The piston 6 - which does not rotate in operation - is flanked by two locating
rings, lined with a running layer.
The axial clearance "AS" of the piston 6 between the locating rings (0.324 +
1.024 mm) is determined by the position of the fly-disc 5 or of the connecting
piece 15 respectively.
The control of the reversing servo motor is effected through the engine con-
trols via a reversing valve (see sheet 4500-21).
The reversing servo motor carionly shift the camshaft provided:
a) A given minimum rpm is reached
b) No fuel is injected, i.e. when the regulating linkage stands on zero
delivery.
The blocking against untimely shifting and against release of fuel injection
in the wrong sense of rotation is effected through the controls of the block-
ing valve 4509-20. The control proper is effected by a friction coupling
(parts 10, 11) which closes or frees specific interna1 bores (See also 4509).
Depending on the desired sense of rotation, the reversing valve lets oil drain
out of either space "A" or "B" and enter the other space. By this action the
piston 6 - and with it the camshaft - are shifted in axial direction until it
touches the respective stop in the casing (= End Position).
When the camshaft stands in the corresponding end position the oil pressure
holds the piston 6 in the chosen position ('AHEAD' or 'ASTERN'). Through the
oblique bores 'SR'oil reaches the connections 'US' to which the control val-
ves are connected, which block the release of the fuel linkage until pressure
has built up in the ring space 'R'.
The oil escaping from the spaces 'A' or 'B' flows back to the engine crank
case through the reversing valve.
Alter the reversing operation is completed the control air does no longer
press against piston 37, SO that it caribe pushed by oil pressure into the
position depicted as 37a. Oil carionly flow through the throttling bore "DB"
into the space "E" or to the reversing servo motor respectively,this suffises
however to make up for the losses in the reversing servo motor and to hold the
piston 35 in the correspondingend positions.

The tut-out servo motor shuts the engine down or prevents its fuel injection
when starting is attempted if and when the lubricating oil system is not
under the required pressure. In reversible engines it blocks the fuel
linkage if the cam-shaft(s) is (are) not in the correct end position, or
if the immediate sense of rotation does not correspond to the desired one.
The action of the servo motor is effected by its piston directly onto a
lever which is clamped to the fuel regulating shaft.
In operation, i.e. when lub.oil pressure is present, the slide seat 3 is
pressed against the piston 6 at "X". If the pressure fails in the space
"A"> the slide seat 3 is pushed away from the piston 6 by the higher
pressure in space "B" (which is created by the force of spring 2). The
opening 'ID"is uncovered and the oil from space "B" cariescape. (Please
refer to sheet 4622-20, Fig. "a").
The quick relief valve consistingof the parts 3, 3a, 4, 5 and 10 permits
the oil from spaces "B" and "C" to escape very fast through the opening
"D" and "E" into the engine casing, if the oil pressure collapses. This
valve furthermore renders a venting of the tut-out servo motor superfluos.
(Fig. "a").
On engines with built-on lubricatingoil pumps, whilst they are being started
the piston 6 is pressed inwards by several pneumatic pistons 13 fed by
starting air, until sufficient oil pressure has built up to hold the piston
6 in position (19a) (see Fig. "cl').

The load indicator plays an important role in the monitoring of the engine in operation. It permits evaluating the
approximate engine load from the position of its pointer.
The load indicator consists of a pointer 2 fixed on the shaft 5 of the fuel injection pump regulation, and of a gradua-
tion 1 with 0 - 10 positions.
The operation of a load indicator depends on an angle transmitter, having an output current of 0 - 20 mA for the
position 0 - 10.
The output current is also used for load dependent impulses like overload etc.
Fine adjustment:
The output signal 0 - 20 mA is phased in for the indication with the two potentiometers Pt and P2. For this adjust-
ment, the front caver 7 of the angle transmitter must be removed.

FEEDBACK TRANSMITTER
For marine enginesselected for operation with a controllable pitch propeller, a signal transmitter has been foreseen
for signalling the electrical load to the propeller pitch control system. Two standard design executions cari be sup-
plied.
The angle transmitter 1 is arranged on the casing of the camshaft space 7 at the FREE END of the engine. The
position of the regulating shaft 5 is transmitted via lever 4, which is connected through a torsional spring, the link
rod 3 and lever 2 to the angle transmitter 1. The transmitter emits an analogous electrical signal corresponding to
the angle range of load positions “0” to “10”.
When the engine load indicator points to “0” the markings on the transmitter output shaft and on the transmitter
casing must correspond (electrical zero position).
The exact adjustment of the transmitter has to be carried out in accordance with the instructions of the propeller
manufacturer Ka-Me-Wa. . -
Arrangement for the PGA-EG58 governor and ASAC 70 actuator for the electronic speed system.
The movement or load position respectively of the governor output shaft 8 is accomplished by the angle transmitter
1 via the setting levers 4,10,3 and 2. The angle transmitter 1 passes a load dependent signal to the propeller control
corresponding to the angular position.
The transmitting linkages 4,10,3 and 2 have to be set in such away that at load indicator position 5 (50% load) the
markings on the shaft and housing of the transmitter correspond.

SPEED GOVERNOR
Generally a mechanical-hydraulic centrifugal governor with load limiter (charge air pressure fuel limiter) is
installed. It is driven by the step-up gear of the governor drive. Depending on the governor type the setting of the
governor speed and with it of the engine speed (r.p.m.) is either effected pneumatically or electrically. For emer-
gency operation the speed cari also be set by the setting knob on the governor.
In view of thevariety of speed control systems, special executionsand alternative governor types, a detailed descrip-
tion of the governor is here not practical. Instead we refer to the operating instructions supplied separately by the
manufacturer of the governor which has been installed in the respective engine. Information on function, troubles,
maintenance and on the type of oil to be used must be gathered from this operating instruction.
The following WOODWARD mechanical-hydraulic governor types may be installed:
PGA 58 . . . . . . . . . Governor with pneumatic speed setting;
PGA-EG 58 . . . . . Governor / Actuator for electronic speed control system;
UG 40D . . . . . . . . Governor with electrical speed setting;
EGB 58P . . _. . . . . Actuator for electronic speed control system.
A further fully electronic governor alternative from ASEA BROWN BOVERI (ABB) may also be installed:
ASAC 70 . . . . . . . . Actuator for electrical control element and electronic speed setting.
The utmost attention must be paid to the proper operation of the governor. It is, therefore, essential that the
instructions regarding oil grade and oil changing intervals be adhered to.
Adjustments or repairs on the governor should only be carried out by specially trained personnel.
It is strongly recommended that a spare governor be kept on board which is already set up for the installation con-
cerned.

.The drive of the overspeed safety tut-out is connected to the pressurised oil system of the engine.
Attention! If the engine has been brought to a standstill by the mechanical overspeed safety tut-out, it cannot be
started again before the paw17 is engaged in the tut-out bar 4a. This is effected by turning the shaft
back against the force of the spring 4b, i.e. through the turning of the hexagonal 18 with a ring spanner
and extension arm (tool No. 9408.40), until engagement is attained. Prior to re-setting the overspeed
safety tut-out, it must be ascertained why the tripping action has been effected. In particular, investiga-
tions are to be made to determine why the engine has not been hindered from exceeding the overspeed
limit by the pneumatic safety tut-out,which is set to actuate earlier.
The speed at which the safety tut-out should actuate cari be influenced by means of the adjusting screw 14. If the
screw is turned in a clockwise direction, the tut-out point is lowered.
If the tut-out speed is to be increased, i.e. by tuming the adjusting screw 14 in an anti-clockwise direction, make
sure that the adjusting screw does not project more than 5.5 mm from the tut-out bar 11.
The spring-loaded locking halls 13 hold the adjusting screw 14 in the selected position (12 engagement positions
around the circumference).
The graphical representations on the following page show the change in the tut-out point realized through turning
the adjusting screw.
Fuel limiter (see sheet 5303-20) (only for engines with UG40D or EGB Governor)
The fuel limiter - comprising cylinder 8a and piston 8 - is accommodated in the overspeed safety tut-out housing.
During the starting manoeuvre, the piston 8 is pressed outwards to the stop through the force of the starting air (30
bar).
The lever - which on starting moves in the direction of load indicator position 10 - thus makes contact with the
piston 8, i.e. the fuel injection pumps cannot prime the fuI1quantity. This prevents hard and dangerous ignitions in
the cylinders and excessive smoke.The automaticcontrol system causes the air under the piston 8 to be blown off via
the electro-pneumatic valve at a given point and, as a result of this, regulation of the fuel injection pumps is taken
. over by the speed governor.

The fuel injection pump (hereafter referred to as injection pump) pumps fuel at high pressure in accurately regu-
lated quantities to the fuel injectorwhere it is injected into the cylinders asan atomized spray. Each cylinder has one
injection pump. The pump plunger 15 is driven upwards by the fuel cam on the camshaft via roller 21 and guide
piston 2. A strong spring 18 holds the roller on the cam and returns the pump plunger via the lower spring plate 3.
The amount of fuel injected is controlled by the Upper and lower edges of the helical groove in the pump plunger.
Regulation of the injection pump is by axial movement of the regulating rack 7 whose teeth mesh on the toothed
regulating sleeve 9 causing this to turn. The sleeve is connected to the pump plunger 15 by carrier ‘J’ SOthat as the
sleeve turns, the pump plunger turns also. Depending on the position of the plunger, the helical groove uncovers
and closes the supply and retum ports to the fuel chambers ‘A and ‘B’ either earlier or later.
Thus the position of the helical groove controls the injection period and hence the amount of fuel injected.
The regulating rack 7 is connected to the fuel regulating shaft through spring links. The regulating shaft is turned by
the governor via the fuel injection pump regulating rod (see sheet 5801).
A special seal using separating oil is provided to prevent fuel leaking into the lubricating oil between the pump
plunger 15 and pump cylinder 14. Lubricating oil is fed to the bore ‘SO’ in the lower part of the pump body. The oil,
from the engine pressure system, is fed along vertical blind hole ‘SOI’ to the circumferential groove ‘ZN’ in the
pump cylinder and thus closes off the way for the fuel which has leaked through between pump plunger and pump
cylinder. Part of the oil flows upwards and reaches the groove ‘ON’ where it mixes with any fuel and drains out
through the leakage drain ‘LO’. The rest of the oil flows down the pump plunger 15 and returns to the crankcase via
holes in the guide piston 2. Due to the minimal clearance between the pump plunger and pump cylinder, the amount
of oil leaking from the separating oil system is ver-y small.
A pipe is connected to pump caver 11 at ‘LF’ through which the fuel cari flow in the event of a high pressure fuel
delivery pipe breaking or if the screwed connections of same are not tight.
The rear part of the regulating rack 7 acts as piston ‘K’ for the pneumatic safety tut-out whereby the regulating rack
7 is pushed towards the ‘0’supply position as soon as air at 30 bar is blown in at connection ‘SA’.The air is controlled
by the corresponding control elements on the engine.
Remarks: Individual injection pumps cari be taken out of service while the engine is running by fitting a distance
piece of length 71 mm behveen the pump housing and clamp ring 8 (see sheet 5501-21, Fig. ‘A). Three
of these distance pieces are supplied as tool No. 9455.11. Cut-out ofa fuel injection pump should only
be carried out under emergency conditions (see sheet 0359-9).

REGULATING LINKAGE
The fuel regulating shaft for the fuel injection pumps is actuated by the governor through a spring Ioaded bar 8.
Depending on the governor type the arrangement connecting the governor to the regulating shaft differs some-
what, as is shown on sheet 5801-21.
The rotary movement of the regulating shaft is limited upwards by the adjusting screw 7. The maximum position is
adjusted on the test bed with this screw (please refer to the setting table and test report of the engine).
The lever 10 cari be used in an emergency to stop the engine, by pulling it downwards. (For electric generating sets
feeding into an electric mains circuit, the unit must first be electrically disconnected).
The tut-out servomotor 15 (please refer to sheet 4612) also acts directly on the regulating shaft through the lever 14.

TURBOCHARGING
Depending on the number of cylinders, the nominal output and mode of operation, the turbocharger is exactly se-
lected and matched to the engine with respect to size and specification.
Indications on mode of operation, maintenance and servicing are found in the respective turbocharger manual of
the manufacturer. Instructions on cleaning are described in the Maintenance Manual in sheet 6501.
Principle of function
Exhaust gases ‘C’ from the cylinders 1 drive the turbine 7 of the exhaust gas turbocharger and are then exhausted
through the exhaust system of the plant to ‘B’. The rotation of the turbine drives the blower 8 which is mounted on
the same shaft.
The blower 8 draws fresh air ‘A via a filter-silencer from the engine room and compresses it to a higher pressure i.e.
the charge air pressure ‘D’. The compression process heats the charge air, which is again cooled to a lower tempera-
ture by charge air cooler 10. Depending on air humidity more or less condensate water is produce by the cooling,
which is separated by the water separator 11, fitted after the charge air cooler, then drained off through the perma-
nently open drain 16.
Additional installations
On this modern high powered engine further installations have been provided to exploit the high efficiency of the
turbocharger. Depending on the engine utilization the followingvalves are applied either singly or in combination
with the others.
The charge air bypass valve 18 is generally only fitted to engineswith variable speed. Its purpose is to retum, at part
load, a certain amount of charge air ‘D’ after the blower 8 into the exhaust pipe 6. (Details are described on sheet
6730).
On engines equipped with the charge air waste-gate17 operating in the Upper load range, excess charge air is al-
lowed to escape into the engine room (details are described on sheet 6735).
For the power range above ER 1 (&onomyEating 1) the exhaust gas waste-gate is applied as part load waste-gate.
In the lower power range the charge air waste-gate cari be applied in place of the part load waste-gate.
Controlled by the charge air pressure through control piping 20 and pressure retainingvalve 21, part of the exhaust
gas ‘C’ is thereby led to the gas outlet side ‘B’ in other words short circuited (details are described on sheet 8136).

General
The charge air cooler (CAC for short) is arranged after the blower outlet of the turbocharger. Its duty is to cool the
compressed and thereby heated charge air before it passes into the engine cylinders through the water separator,
receiver space and air branch. The standard CAC is a two-stage two-way cooler, i.e. the water enters the part 10
from the bottom, is reversed at the other cooler end and leaves the cooler at the same front end at the cooler part 7.
This method assures an equal distribution of the temperature drop across the whole CAC.
The si n g 1e - s t a g e CAC 9 has been selected for the direct cooling system using sea water, as well as for the central
cooling system using fresh water (please also refer to schematic diagram 8300-20).
The t w o - s t a g e compact CAC 17 is only apphed to the central cooling system using treated fresh water.
The fkst stage of this CAC has been provided for the high temperature circuit ‘H’, which first cools the charge air
and afterwards the engine (cylinder cooling).
The second stage of this CAC is used for the low temperature cooling circuit ‘T’ which cools the charge air before
cylinder to the required temperature (please also refer to schematic diagram 8300-21).
Illustration sheets 6601-20 (single-stage design) and 6601-20a (two-stage design) show the arrangement of the
turbocharger and the CAC on the example of a 6 ZAL4OS engine. As required the charging groups cari be mounted
either at the free end or at the driving end of the engine. ZAV4OS engines are equipped with two charging groups.
Operation
In operation charge air must always flow from the drain connections 12.
Obstructed or blocked drain connections must immediately be cleaned out.
Should water issue from drain connections, it must be established, whether this is condensate (precipitation at high
air humidity) or cooling water (leakage in the CAC or leaking O-rings of the cyIinder liners).
Fouling in operation
Water-side fouling of the CACcauses reduction of the temperature difference behveen cooling water inlet and out-
let. Cleaning must be carried out at standstill and in accordancewith instructions in the Maintenance Manual sheet
66OVl. In case of air-side fouling the pressure difference across the CAC is increasing (Ap indication in mm w.g.).
The temperature difference of the charge air across the CACisdecreasing. Air-side fouled CAC-s cari be the source
of black sooty exhaust or the so-called “surging” of the turbocharger. (Cleaning at standstill is described in the
Maintenance Manual, sheet 6601/1).
- Connect compressed air from board system by quick-release coupling and open shut-off cock ‘C’.
- Open shut-off cock ‘D’ to the CAC. The contents of the container is sprayed through the nozzles into the CAC.
- After about ten minutes close shut-off cocks ‘D’ and ‘C’.
- Repeat cleaning operation but use clean water in place of cleaning agent.
- After this close the shut-off cocks ‘B’, ‘C’ and ‘D’ and open ‘A.

The pressure difference across the CAC (in comparison with thevalue prior to the washingoperation) indicates the
effectiveness of the washing. Should the washing produce no effect, then the CAC must be cleaned at standstill in
accordance with instructions from the Maintenance Manual.
Remark!
Detailed instructions on operation, maintenance and repairs of charge air coolers are contained in the separately
issued instruction leaflet of the cooler manufacturer.
As in most cases GEA, SERCK, ASTRA or RUMIA coolers are installed, it is practical to obtain these instruction
leaflets directly from the makers.

General
Turbochargerswith improved efficiency are installed to reduce fuel consumption. TOprevent ‘surging’ of the turbo-
charger at partial load operation, excess charge air is led via the bypass from the blower into the exhaust gas man-
ifold before the turbine.
In principle the charge air bypass valve is only fitted to engines which are operated at variable speed. For safety
reasons the valve may also be applied in ships with controllable pitch propellers where the engine runs at constant
speed, SOthat for emergency operation the plant cari be operated the same as with a fixed pich propeller.
The control of the charge air bypass valve is speed and load dependent.
The valve opens when the engine speed is between ~63% and ~93% of nominal speed and the engine load rises
above load indicator L.I. - position 3.5.
Function
The (toothed) rack 1 is pushed to the position BYPASS CLOSED by control air which is always present at connec-
tion ‘A’.When the signal to open arrives from the control logic box, the solenoid actuated 3/2-way valve 4 is actuated
and control air pressure shifts the rack in the direction ‘C’, whereby the valve flap 5 of the bypass opens. The limit
switch 7 monitors the correct position of the bypass during operation. Should the flap be in the wrong position, an
alarm is triggered.
The functional check cari be carried out at any load, as the monitor must indicate a faulty flap position at any time.
For the check proceed as follows:
Turn the flap with a hexagonal spanner to the wrong operating position and hold it there.
Check whether the alarrn is triggered within about 3 seconds (Hereby there is a risk that the turbine begins to surge
when operating at partial load).

General
The main purpose of the waste-gate is the improvement of the acceleration ability of the engine.
Turbochargers of engines equipped with a waste-gate attain the maximum charge air pressure at about 85% up to
91% of MCR (Maximum Continuous Rating). The opening start of the waste-gate is dependent on the engine rat-
ing. Engines applied for MCR have the opening start at about 85%, engines applied for ER 1(Economy Rating 1)
have the opening start at about 88% and engines applied for ER 11(Economy Rating Il) have the opening start at
about 91%. The waste-gate slowly opens from the above mentioned opening start until fully open at 100% load.
Between the opening start and 100% the charge air pressure remains practically constant. Beyond 100% load the
charge air pressure rises further, as not more charge air is blown off via the waste-gate than at 100% load.
A further advantage of the waste-gate is minor smoke development at low loads and during acceleration and,
compared with the standard engine, lower exhaust temperatures after the turbine at the load at which the waste-
gate opens.
The surplus charge air after the charge air cooler is blown through the waste-gate and a silencer directly into the
engine room. The air is dry and has a charge air temperature of about 40°C.
Function
Piston 6 is shut by pressure spring 5 and charge air pressure. A bore is provided in piston 6 which supplies space ‘A’
with charge air. Pressure regulatingvalve 1 regulates the out flowing air and with this the pressure in space ‘A’.When
the charge air pressure rises, the pressure in space ‘A’rises accordingly.
From the above mentioned start of opening, piston 6 opens slowly and charge air flows into the engine room (or,
depending on the installation, into the open).
Checking the setting: (This is only necessary after remedies of defects, dismantling or replacement of the waste-
gate).
Valve stroke: The simplest way is at standstill, but definitely at belaw 80% load (piston 6 must be shut).
Loosen lock nut 2, screw in screw 3 till the stop. Turn back screw 3 by the value indicated in
the setting table (one turn = 1.5 mm).
Holding pressure: The holding pressure is set with tool no. 9408.26f on pressure regulating valve 1.
Operate the engine at 100% load. Check charge air pressure against indications in the tim-
ing records, if necessary adjust with pressure regulating valve.
Connect pressure gauge (range Os4 bar) to connection 4. Here the holding pressure as per
setting table cari be verified. In case of marked deviation, establish its cause or consult the
manufacturer.
Charge air pressure: The charge air pressure must be continuously watched during operation, in order to pre-
vent damage due to excessive ignition pressures.
The setting for the alarm CHARGE AIR PRESSURE HIGH mustthereforebe checked
periodieaily. (Alarm point = charge air pressure at 110% load, according to setting table)

BUILT-ON PUMPS
Built-on pumps are those which are mounted at the free end of the engine
and are there driven off a gear wheel fastened to the end of the crank-
shaft.
Built-on pumps are provided only in some specific cases and only on
non-reversible engines. Generally the required pumps are mounted separate
from the engine in the engine room and are driven by electric motors.
Depending on the requirements, the following pumps caribe built onto
the engine free end:
The pumps are fitted into the front cowling in the manufacturers works and
are secured in their proper position by locating dowels. As the front
cowling is also pin located in the engine casing, the pumps are always
returned to the proper setting when they had to be removed for overhauls,
and refitted. The gear wheels driving the various pumps are lubricated
from the engine lubricating oil system by spray nozzles.
The pipes leading to and from the pumps must be fitted without any stresses.
Where no pump is provided, the respective bore in the front cowling is
closed by a caver with joint.

General
The oil pump is only attached in the case of non-reversible engines and then only in special cases. As long as the
engine is in operation, it provides oil for the engine components served by the pressurised oil circuit.
The pump is driven by the central drive wheel (see illustration 7100-20). An O-ring, inserted in the groove of the
pump flanges, provides the seal against the front casing.
The pump is designed in such a way that it cari be used for right and left-hand turning engines. This is effected by
interchanging the wheels 10 and 13.
The fîtted pressure and safety valve protects the pump against excessive pressure and also regulates the pressure
before the filter and the bearings.
Function
If the pressure should increase in the chambers ‘A’and ‘Al’, which are connected by the holes ‘N’, the slide valve 1 is
pressed outwards against the force of the spring 17. As a result of this, a corresponding amount of oil escapes from
the space ‘Al’ into the space ‘B’. If the pressure continues to increase, the valve opens more (closes in the event of a
decrease) SOthat a pressure is built up which remains constant. The theoretical valve opeaing pressure is 7.8 bar.
The drive wheeI5 is attached to the pump shaft by means of a necked-down boit, which has to be tightened accord-
ing to special instructions (see Maintenance Manual, sheet 7101).

The fuel booster pump is fitted only onto nonreversible engines and even
there only in specific installations.As long as the engine is operating
this pump delivers the liquid fuel to the Fuel injection pumps.
The design of these pumps permits the interchangeof the cogwheels 16 and
18 SO that it caribe used either for clockwise or anti clockwise rotating
engines.
An O-Ring 13 serves as seal between the pump and the engine.
The screw 24 fastening the driving gear wheel 22 onto the pump shaft/cog-
wheel 18 has to be tightened in accordance with instructions (Please refer
to the maintenance manual Group 7102).
The relief valve 1 protects the pump from unadmissiblehigh pressure
(Blow-off pressure = 10 bar).
The shaft seals 20 and 20a prevent the leakage of oil into the fuel or the
fuel into the lubricating oil respectively.
The bearings of shaft (cogwheel) in the bearing housing 12 are lubricated
by oil from lubricating oil system of the engine.
The bearings of the cogwheels however are lubricatedby the fuel.

The cylinder cooling water pump is only built ont0 non-reversing engines and
only in certain cases. As long as the engine is running, the water necessary
for cooling the engine (net the charge air cooler) Will be circulated.
The pump shaft bearings are supplied with oil from the engine lubricating oil
system whereby the oil reaches the bearings through internal drillings.
The shaft sealing ring 8 prevents oil escaping from the drive side while the
CYCLAM-rotating mechanical seal 11 seals off the water chamber.
Leakage water as well as leakage oil which may corne from the seals leaves the
pump through leakage drain 'L' at the bottom of the pump housing.
The rubber ring 18 acts as a seal between the pump housing and the end casing.
Should pump leakage noticeably increase, then either the shaft seal on the
drive side (oil) or pump side (water) will have to be renewed. This requires
that the pump be removed from the engine and dismantled (sec maintenance manual,
group 7103).
The pump has also to be removed from the engine if an inspection of the rotat-
ing parts and bearings is to be made and for any extensive overhaul. At the
same time the running clearances have to be noted.

CYLINDER LUBRICATION
General
A well functioning cylinder lubrication and the use of a suitable grade of lubricant is essential for the trouble-free
operation of the working pistons.
On engines of the type ZA4OS a universal oil is utilized, which is suitable for the bearing lubrication as well as for the
lubrication of the cylinder liners.
Conceming grade and quality of the oil please refer to the section “Lubricating Oil”, sheet 0356-4.
The oil quant@ fed to the cylinders is regulated load-dependent, whereby one must consider that a certain portion
of it is scraped off into the crankcase by the oil scraper rings.
The delivered oil quantity therefore does not correspond to the actual cylinder lubricating oil consumption.
The oii for the lubrication of the cylinder liners is pumped through the separator 4, the heater 3 and the fine filter 5
into the daily service tank 6.
Should the case occur that no more oil is delivered from the separator to the daily service tank 6, the float valve 13
Will open and admit oil from the pipe 12 into the tank. This oil cornes from the main oil pipe of the pressurized
engine lubricating system and flows through the fine filter (SCAAMTIC)ll, mounted on the engine.

The self-cleaning oil fine filter (SCAMATIC) cornes into operation when the
float valve 13 in the elevated tank 6 opens. The pipe 12 between engine and
elevated tank- and therefore also the filter 11 - are constantly under pres-
sure (please refer to sheet 7200-20).
The shut-off valve in the pipe between engine oil pipe and fine filter must
always be open during operation. It must be shut only when the filter must be
dismantled.
As mentioned before, the filter is self-cleaning, and requires no periodic
maintenance, The switching mechanism inside the filters is actuated by the
flow of the oil and it acts about 20 times per minute. The switching cari be
heard when the engine stands still and it cari be felt by touch on the running
engine, provided the oil flows through!
The oil enters at 'A' and leaves the filter at 'B' (filter grade = 5 um).
Part of the entering oil drives the switching mechanism of the cleaning device
and leaves the filter at 'D' to return to the crank case of the engine. (Please
refer to sheet 7203-21).
Sludge eliminated by the filter (dirt) enters the space 'E' and flows through
the exit 'C', which is connected to the crank case, back into the collecter
tank (please refer to sheet 7203-21).

The drive of the cylinder lubricating oil pumps is effected hydraulically, in accordance with schematic diagram
7210-20. Sheet 7210-21 provides information on the arrangement of the hydraulic drive components. For estab-
lishing and setting the lubricating oil feed rate, diagram sheet 7210-22 has to be used.
The cylinder lubricating oil pump drive is SOdesigned that the specific cylinder lubricating feed rate at low load
(about 25% load) is 1.1 times to 1.3 times higher than at full load (100% load).
The geared pump 6 supplies a constant quantity of engine oil per unit of time and with an increased pressure to the
3-way flow control valve 5, which is controlled by the fuel regulating linkage 1. Depending on the position (load) of
the fuel injection pump regulating shaft 1 and the 3-way flow control valve 5, the latter controls the quantity of oil
flowing to the hydraulic motor 7. The 3-way flow control valve 5 allows any surplus oil to return to the engine hous-
ingvia return 18. In this way, the quantity of oil routed to the hydraulic motor 7 is increased or reduced and thus also
the speed of the hydraulic motor. As a result of this, the cylinder lubricating oil pumps 8 are driven faster or slower,
and therefore prime more or less oil. The speed of the hydraulic motor is dependent solelyon its supplied quantity
of oil.
The minimum speed of hydraulic motor 7 @OR = 40 r.p.m.) is determined by stop screw 1.
As a rule the basic setting as recorded in the setting table should not be altered.
TOpre-lubricate the cylinders (see also sheet 0357) as well as in the case of failure of gear pump 6 or of flow control
valve 5, the hand cranks 10 of the cylinder Iubricators 8 have to be turned manually. Damage to the drive system of
the lubricators should, if at a11possible, be remedied immediately.
Establishing the theoretical specifk feed rate (SFR) from the adjusting diagram sheet 7210-22
The theoretical feed rate is established from the three diagram fields ‘A!,‘B’ and ‘C’ as shown in the examples for
25% load and 100% load.
Diagram field ‘A’ The determining characteristic ‘KS’ of flow control valve 5 bas been entered here. Starting at
the LI-position (load indicator) of the regulating shaft (on the left) the speed of hydraulic mo-
tor 7 nOR is estabhshed by means of the flow characteristic.
The exact speed nOR cari be verified by direct speed measurement on the drive shaft 9, or by
counting the number of crank turns.
Number of crank turnslminute x 9 = rm effective
Diagram field ‘B’ A characteristic line is allocated to every position ‘X’ (e-g. X = 2) of the stroke-adjusting screw
‘E’, which indicates the relevant throughput FR in g/cyl. hour at the intersection of the corre-
sponding nOR.
Norma& the setting measure ‘x’ (number of screw tums) should be equal on a11cylinder lubrica-
tors on the engine.
Diagram field ‘C’ Starting from the intersection in field ‘B’, the intersection with the resp. cyIinder Ioad charac-
teristic (e.g. 180 kW/@.) cari be found and with it the specific feed rate SFR (g/kWh) cari be
established.
TOdetermine the setting measure ‘X’,the procedure cari also be reversed (e.g. 100% load).

For normal operation the basic setting according to the setting table should not be altered as a rule.
Only after overhauls i.e. after replacement of piston rings, cylinder liner, piston or piston skirt, may the lubricating
oil quantity SFR be altered for the duration of running-in as described in the running-in instructions (sheet 0360).
At the end of the running-in period the original value must be re-set again.
When replacing gear pump 6, for the hydraulic motor 7 and specially the flow control valve 5, the actual speed nOR of
the hydraulically motor has to be measured and compared with the values in the setting table. Deviations of i 10%
at 100% load and of +r 15% at 25% load are tolerable.
Should the deviations be greater, then alterations of the basic setting should only be carried out by specifically
trained personnel.
Below are given the alteration possibilities of characteristic ‘KS’ of the 3-way flow control valve:
- Transmission bar 3

The gear pump delivers the lubricating oil to connection ‘A. Part of this oil flows from connection ‘B’ to the hydrau-
lit motor via the throttle of the control piston. The remaining oil returns to the system through connection ‘T’.
Depending on the position of the control piston or the regulating linkage respectively, more oil reaches the hydrau-
lit motor and less returns to the system or vice versa.
In addition a pressure regulating valve 5 is provided, which is set to 50 bar.

The hydraulic motor drives the cylinder lubricating oil pumps which are con-
nected to each other with couplings. The oil leaving the hydraulic motor re-
turns to the crankcase.
The distance from the cylinder lubricating oil pumps seating surface to the
drive-shaft centre line 1s specified with a tolerance SO that during installa-
tion the correct position with regard to the height-is obtained automatically.
In order to ensure that the correct axial position 1s obtained the cylinder lu-
bricating oil pumps must be pushed UP to the stop against the front of the sup-
port during assembly.

1. Design
Eight pump elements ring the vertical gear shaft. Each element consists of a pump body with control plunger and
main piston. As well as these, a suction pipe ‘A’and two deliveq pipes ‘B’ are to be found in each element. The
individual pump elements 8 are screwed onto a common baseplate 15. Al1 the oil outlets are located at the top in
the housing caver 3.
2. Mode of operation
The gear shaft 14 is driven by the cylinder lubricating oil pump shaft 18 (see also sheet 7210) via worm gears 10
and 10a. Their rotation is converted directly into a reciprocating movement of the main piston and control
plunger. The rim of the stroke control disc 6 runs in the groove of control plunger 9 and causes the latter to
execute t w o upward and downward strokes every revolution. The head of the main piston 7 engages in the rim
of the stroke operating disc 4 and the piston executes an upward and downward stroke e v e r y r e v o 1u t i o n.
a) Suction stroke: The control plunger is brought to the middle position by the stroke control disc and con-
nects the suction pipe ‘A’with the displacement chamber of the pump body through the
transverse hole in the control plunger. The main piston sucks oil due to its upwards mo-
tion created by the stroke operating disc.
a) Delivery stroke: The control plunger is brought to its uppermost position and connects the displacement
chamber of the pump body with the Upper delivery line through the vertical groove in the
control plunger. The downward stroke of the main piston supplies oil to the relevant con-
nection.
b) Suction stroke: The control plunger is again brought to the middle position. The Upper delivery pipe is
closed off. The upward stroke of the main piston then sucks oil in.
b) Delivery stroke: The control plunger is brought to its lowest position and the displacement chamber of the
pump body is connected with the lower delivery line through the vertical groove in the
control plunger. The downward stroke of the main piston supplies oil to the relevant con-
nection.
Stroke adjustment: The effective stroke of the main piston cari be altered by the adjusting screw 2 (‘E’ in dia-
gram 7210-22) at the head of the piston. This is used to regulate the oil delivexy and this
at the same time for hotb delivery lines of a pump element. The oil delivery Willbe in-
creased when the adjusting screw is tumed anti-clockwise and decreased when it is
turned clockwise. By turning the adjusting screw clockwise until it cornes to the stop, the
oil delivered from the relevant element Will be greatly decreased but not actually com-
pletely tut off. For this re.ason, under no circumstances may delivery pipes be blanked
Off.
TOprime the lubricating oil pipes before starting the engine, after a stoppage of some duration, or to supply extra
oil momentarily when the engine is running, as well as in case of failure of the hydraulic pump drive, the gear
shaft cari be turned by hand using the hand crank 11 ( push crank down to engage)
ZA4OS 2.92
7220- 1
Acylinder lubricating oil pump is required for every 4 cylinders (= 8 lubricating positions). Engines up to 8 cylin-
ders are equipped with two such pumps whereas 9-cylinder engines have three of them.
Depending on the location of the turbocharger, the pumps are mounted on the casing at the free end or on the
front casing at the driving end.
With 6 and 9 cylinder engines, a number of delivery branches are not required. Nevertheless, small pipes are
connected to these branches and they return the delivered oil to the supply pipe of the respective pump.

The feed indicators arranged above the cylinder lubricating oil pumps allow a check to be made on the cylinder
lubrication while the engine is running. Al1 the lubricating oil pipes leading from each cylinder lubricating oil pump
in pairs to the respective cylinders are connected up to the feed indicators made of clear Plexiglass.
Depending on the number of cylinders of the engine, 6 or 8 digit feed indicators are used.
Function
In operation the steel balls 4 are lifted up in rhythm of the stroke with the regulating piston and kept hovering in the
Upper half of the indicator glass bore (3).
Each feed indicator is monitored at two oil ways by electrical proximity switches 5. If the oil flow stops, the steel balls
4 Willsink until they lie in front of the proximity switch 5. This causes a damping effect on the magnetic field which in
turn results in an alarm being energized through an amplifying relay.

EXHAUST PIPE
The exhaust gas from each individual cylinder is led into a single pipe 1 and then to the turbocharger 3. This arrange-
mentis described as SPES (Single Pipe Exhaust System).
Expansion bellows 5 are installed between each individual length of pipe to absorb thermal deformation.
The supports 2 prevent the pipe from vibrating in operation. The supports 6 hold the pipe connections when the
respective cylinder head 4 has been removed.
The threads of a11the bolts and studs for the exhaust piping have to be smeared with special heat resistant grease
(see Maintenance Manual, sheet 0002, page 1).

General
Engines with high cylinder outputs consume the whole turbocharger potential. However, in order to make full use
of the wide utility spectrum of the engine in marine or stationary plants, as well as improve the fuel economy and the
acceleration performance, an exhaust gas waste-gate cari be provided (see illustration 6501-20).
The exhaust gas waste-gate functions generally similar to the charge air waste-gate.
If the maximum admissible charge air pressure is reached, part of the exhaust gas is bypassed directly into the gas
outlet after the turbine in order to limit the energy supplied to the turbine.
Function
The exhaust gas waste-gate 1 is fitted after the turbocharger to a connecting piece 6 on the gas outlet piping. Im-
mediately before entering the turbine, part of the exhaust gas is branched-off from the exhaust pipe, via branch
piping 7, and led to the waste-gate. When the valve opening pressure is reached, valve 2 opens and exhaust gas es-
capes to the gas outlet piping 6.
The control ofvalve 2 is effected by the pressure of the charge airwhich reachesvalve piston 3 via connection piping
8. The shutting forces are provided by compression spring 5 and counter piston 4. The opposed piston is fed via
connecting bore ‘E’ with charge air pressure or holding pressure respectively which cari be adjusted by pressure
regulating valve 10 connected via control piping 9.
The basic setting of valve stroke ‘S’ is done with setting screw 11.
The function and setting of the valve stroke are checked by means of the control pin 13.
On engines with part load waste-gate the turbocharger is specially tuned to part load operation.
The turbocharger attains the nominal charge air pressure at about 85% to 91% of MCR.
atMCR . . . the valve opens at about 85%;
at ERl . . . . the valve opens at about 88%;
atER . . . . the valve opens at about 91%. (ER = E;CONOMYMTING)
At approximately this load point the valve opens progressively until, at 100% load, it is completely open.
Opening characteristics
open
closed
Checking the setting ( only to be done after a defect, dismantling or in the case of replacement of parts )
A check or setting cari only be performed with turbocharger and charge air cooler in Perfect condition.
Setting the valve stroke: TOcarry out setting works remove first covering cap 14. With the valve shut turn
the setting screw 11 for stroke limitation inwards to the stop (turn in clockwise
direction). Then turn it outwards to the valve stroke ‘S’ specified in the setting
table and lock it with the lock nut (1 turn = 1.5 mm valve stroke).
Attention! Never run with the valve shut by force (no stroke).
Setting the holding pressure: Before carrying out setting works check the oil level and top up if necessary.
(with engine in operation) Bring engine power to 100% load without, however, exceeding the admissible
100% value of charge air pressure given in the setting table.
Set the holding pressure using the pressure gauge (range 0+4 bar from tool No.
9408.26) on pressure regulating valve 10 (measuring point 12), to exactly the
value given in the setting table.
Charge air pressure: The charge air pressure must be permanently monitored while the engine runs to
prevent damage caused by excessive ignition pressures.
The setting for the alarm CHARGE AIR PRESSURE TO0 HIGH must there-
fore be checked periodically (Alarm point = charge air pressure at 110% load).

Remark: Generally the cooling water is circulated through the engine cooling circuits by separate electric motor
driven pumps. Engines with “built-on pumps” (for example Diesel Generators) have their pumps
driven directly off the crankshaft (please refer to section 7103 and 7104).
The water cooling is divided into three separate circuits, namely:
- Cylinder cooling with treated fresh water in a closed circuit
- Fuel injection valve and nozzle cooling with treated fresh water
- Charge air cooling . for single-stage charge air cooler with raw water or with treated fresh
water (central cooler)
. for two-stage compact charge air cooler only with treated fresh water in a
closed circuit.
The circuits of the three systems within the engine are shown on the diagram 8300-20 for single-stage charge air
cooler and diagram 8300-21 for two-stage compact charge air cooler.
For circuits within the installation (power plant) please consult the relevant diagrams of the plant.

The fuel oil is fed to the fuel injection pumps by a booster pump installed either in the plant or on the engine. The
volume of fuel delivered by this pump is considerably larger than required by the engine injection. At the end of the
return pipe 7 a pressure retaining valve 6 has been foreseen, on which the specified feed pressure (see sheet 0358)
cari be set. The excess fuel oil is returned to the system.
For heavy fuel oil service the fuel piping is heated and insulated. The high pressure injection piping 4 is additionally
encased for safety reasons. This pipework is monitored by a float switch 13 installed at the end of the fuel leakage
pipe 8.
TOreduce the pressure surges produced by the injection pumps, throttling orifices have been fitted in the connec-
tions to the feed and return pipes on the injection pumps.
Shut-off valves 11 and 12 are only fitted in front of each fuel injection pump as standard on the Marine Engines.
TOincrease the adjustable pressure, turn the adjusting spindle 6 in a cloclovise direction (+). TOreduce the pressure
turn the adjusting spindle 6 in an anti-clockwise direction (-). TOfree the spindle for adjustment loosen the lock nut

9314
Where rules or laws demand it or when the customer orders it specially, the engine is equipped with an oil mist
detector. This device continuously measures the density of oil mist in the crankcase and triggers an alarm when the
oil mist intensity is too high.
With this, possible bearing damage cari be detected at an early stage and explosions be prevented in the crankcase.
Dependingon the design execution, either a GRAVINER (Fig. 9314-20) or SCHALLER (Fig. 9314-20a) type is
fitted.
Function
The oil mist detector 1 is mounted on the EXHAUST SIDE of the engine. From each cylinder of the crankcase
space, a sampling pipe 2 leads to the oil mist detector 1.
Via the individual suction tubes 3 oil mist samples are drawn in periodically and checked for their intensity. In case
of inadmissibly high density the device triggers an alarm.
Via return pipe 4 (only on GRAVINER) the oil-air mixture is again led back to the crankcase.
As the oil mist detector may have been supplied by various manufacturers we have to refer to the more detailed
description of each make. The manufacturer’s documentation also contains more exact instructions regardingperi-
odical maintenance work which must be carried out.
