Figure 0.0-1: Engine definitions


Top dead centre (TDC)
The top turning point of the piston in the cylinder. TDC for every cylinder is marked on the gradation of the flywheel.
In a complete diesel process on a four cycle engine the piston reaches TDC twice:
TDC at scavenging
The first time when the exhaust stroke of the previous working cycle ends and the suction stroke of the following one
begins. Exhaust valves as well as inlet valves are then partly open and scavenging takes place. If the crankshaft is
turned back and forth in this TDC area, both exhaust and inlet valves tend to open, a fact that indicates the piston is
near top position which is called TDC at scavenging.
TDC at firing
The second time is at the end of the compression stroke and before the working stroke starts. Slightly before this TDC
the fuel injection takes place and this TDC can therefore be defined as TDC at firing. In this case, all valves are closed
and do not move if the crankshaft is turned. The roller of the fuel pump tappet is on the lifting side of the fuel cam.
Bottom dead centre (BDC)
The bottom turning point of the piston in the cylinder.
Marks on the flywheel
The circumference of the flywheel is divided into sections of 5, starting at TDC of cylinder 1. TDC for every following
cylinder is individually indicated. Where two TDC's are indicated at the same mark, one cylinder is in TDC at firing and
the other in TDC at scavenging. See also the firing order in chapter [1.0.]

0.1.3.Electro Static Discharge (ESD)


Note!
ESD, the invisible threat!
The components of modern printed circuit boards are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Damages due to
electrostatic discharge can cause immediate failures of a printed circuit board, or can cause a problem since the
components start deteriorating. Pay always attention to ESD protection, just because the ESD damage is usually
invisible. Handle printed circuit boards, EPROMs and SRAM always carefully.
The static electricity is generally created when two materials are rubbed against each other. This causes unbalanced
electricity in the objects (or persons) and they become charged with a static electricity. On the other hand, conducting
materials in the environment usually have a balanced electrical situation. A discharge current is created when a
charged person touches a conducting object. Even when you move around you are continuously charged and
discharged, but normally that causes no damage. Those discharge currents, however, easily damage the thin layers in
integrated circuits.
The following precautions can widely reduce the risk of failures and malfunctions due to ESD:

Always keep the board in its protection bag/box during transportation and storage. Remove it from the bag just
shortly before the installation.

Make sure your body always has the same potential as the table frame, the board, the rail, or the junction box
where you are going to install the printed circuit board. This can be done with the help of a special ground-terminal
with wristband, but also by simply touching the object with one hand and inserting the printed circuit board with the
other hand.

Avoid touching the connector pins!

Use the protective bag under and between the boards while placing them on a table.

Do not pass the board straight into the hands of another person except if is in a protective bag. It is also possible to
place the board on a non-conducting table and let the other person pick it up from there.

Clear the installation site from all the construction or the package material before the installation. Keep the
environment tidy.

Before inserting the board into its frame or enclosure, check the frame or the enclosure is clean. Check the
connector pins are clean and straight so that the board can be easily inserted into its frame.

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

Do not place the board on a conducting surface such as a metallic table. If the board has been placed on a
conducting table, place one hand on the table and lift the board with the other one.

Handle damaged boards as functional ones, because the damage grade is usually unknown.

0.1.4.Welding precautions
Introduction
This is an instruction concerning the treatment and the protection of the engine mounted electrical equipment when an
arc welding is performed in the vicinity.
Main principles:

Prevent uncontrolled current loops while welding.


The welding current path must always be checked, there should be a straight route from the welding point back to
the return connection of the welding apparatus. The highest current is always going where it meets the lowest
resistance, in certain cases the return current can therefore go via grounding wires and electronics in the control
system. To avoid this, the distance between the welding point and the return connection clamp of the welding
apparatus must always be as short as possible and without any electronic component in the return loop path. Pay
attention to the connectivity of the return connection clamp, a bad contact might also cause sparkles and radiations.

Radiations prevention.
The welding current and the arc are emitting a wide spectrum of electromagnetic radiations. Those might cause
damages on sensitive electronic equipment; in order to avoid those damages all cabinets and terminal boxes must
be kept closed while welding. Sensitive equipment can also be protected by means of shieldings with conductive
metal plates, avoid also the welding apparatus cables go in parallel with wires and cables of the control system
since the high welding currents are going to easily induce secondary currents in conductive materials.

Damages prevention due to sparkles.


Sparkles are commonly flying around from the welding arc. Few materials withstand the heat from these sparkles,
therefore all cabinets and terminal boxes should be kept closed during the welding. Sensors, actuators, cables and
additional equipments on the engine must be properly protected. Sparkles can also be a problem after they have
cooled down, i.e. while causing short circuits, sealing problems etc.

If it is convenient, disconnect all global signals like power supply, data communication etc.

- contamination of turbocharger compressor and/or turbine
- contamination of air in take filter
- contamination of air side cooler.
- too much wear of the turbine.

1.1.Fuel System

1.1-PAAE062665-00

1.1.1.General
Selection of the most economical fuel for diesel engines depends on several variables such as engine requirements,
operating conditions, fuel quality, availability, and costs. Engines vary widely in the grade of fuel required for
satisfactory operations. In general, high speed engines require a more refined fuel than low speed types.
High cetane number light distillate fuels are more expensive than low cetane heavier-type fuels. For any class of fuel,
careful control of uniformity generally carries a price premium because of the operating limitations imposed on the
refiner.
Engine operation on any fuel resulting in excessive maintenance is obviously uneconomical regardless of fuel cost. The
engine manufacturer's recommendation is the logical starting point for selecting the fuel of an engine. These
recommendations may subsequently be tempered to obtain additional economies in view of experience and the local
fuel situation. Such steps, however, should be taken carefully.
1.1.2.Fuel
1.1.2.1.Distillate fuel oil quality
Distillate fuels
The fuel specification is based on the ISO 8217:1996 (E) standard and covers the fuel categories ISO-F-DMX, DMA.
DMB and DMC.
The distillate grades mentioned above can be described as follows:

DMX is a fuel which is suitable for use at ambient temperatures down to -15C without heating the fuel. In
merchant marine applications, its use is restricted to lifeboat engines and certain emergency equipment due to
reduced flash point. This type of fuel is not further specified in this chapter.

DMA is a high quality distillate.

DMB is a general purpose fuel which may contain trace amounts of residual fuel and is intended for engines not
specifically designed to burn residual fuels.

DMC is a fuel which can contain a significant proportion of residual fuel. Consequently it is unsuitable for
installations where engine or fuel treatment plants is not designed for the use of residual fuels.

Note!
The distillate fuels are further in this manual indicated as Light Fuel Oil (LFO).
Bunker quality
The distillate fuel oil quality as bunkered must be in the following specification based on ISO 8217: 1996(E) ISO-FDMA, DMB and DMC:

Lubricating oil, foreign substances or chemical waste, hazardous to the installation or detrimental to the performance
of the engines, should not be contained in the fuel.
Some distillate fuel oils may contain wax particles which solidify at temperatures below 50 C and may clog the fuel
filter. It is advised to install a heater in the supply line to the fuel filter. In case of a clogged filter the heater can be
switched on to overcome the problem.

Figure 1.1-1: Viscosity conversion diagram


Conversion from various viscosity units to [mm/s] can be made in the diagram, [fig. 1.1-1] . The
diagram should be used only for conversion of viscosities at the same temperature. The same temperature
should then be used when entering the viscosity / temperature point into the diagram of [fig. 1.1-2] .
Fuel oil viscosity and temperature
Proper atomization of fuel in the combustion chamber of the engine requires for each fuel a specific viscosity.
Controlled heating to obtain the corresponding temperatures is required. These temperatures can be determined from
the diagram in [fig. 1.1-2] . The diagram shows:

The viscosity-temperature lines for a number of viscosity grades. For residual fuels (ISO RM..) the viscosity is
specified at 100C .
For distillate fuels (ISO DM..) the viscosity is specified at 40C .
The line for 35 mm/s at 100C fuel for instance is the one running through points H and E.
Lines for fuels with other viscosities run parallel.

Figure 1.1-2: Viscosity temperature diagram

The (horizontal) line at 1000 mm/s above which pumping is difficult.

The line with sharp bends through point G, which shows the minimum storage temperature for all viscosity classes.
For higher viscosity class fuels a higher storage viscosity is accepted to limit the heating demand.

The line with sharp bends through point F, shows the required centrifuging temperature. For viscosity classes higher
than 40 mm/s at 50C a higher centrifuging viscosity than 14 mm/s is accepted to save heating power. Finally
the line turns vertical at 97C because boiling of the sealing and operating water in the centrifuge must be avoided.
With further increase of viscosity the throughput through the centrifuge must be reduced for maintaining the
required degree of purification.

The maximum temperature before the HP fuel pumps is 50 C for LFO and 130 C for HFO.

Example:
RM35 a fuel with a viscosity of 35 mm/s at 100C (point B) or 380 mm/s at 50C (point A):

At 80C (point C) the estimate viscosity is 77 mm/s.

Is pumpable above 37C (point H).

Minimum storage temperature is 41C (point G). It is advised to keep the fuel about 10C above this temperature.

Centrifuging temperature is 97C (point F).

Heating temperature before entering the engine for proper atomisation with a viscosity between the 24 and 16
mm/s, is maximum 127C and minimum 112C (point D and E).

Purification
Heavy fuel (residuals, and mixtures of residuals, distillate and DMC) must be purified in an efficient working centrifuge
before entering the day tank. The fuel should be heated before centrifuging.
Recommended temperatures, depending on the fuel viscosity, are stated in the diagram, see [fig. 1.1-2] .

Sufficient heating capacity is needed to make centrifuging at recommended levels possible. The temperature must be
controlled on 2C before centrifuge when centrifuging high viscosity fuels with densities approaching or exceeding
0.991 g/ml at 15C.
Be sure the correct gravity disc is used. Never exceed the flow rates recommended for the centrifuge for the grade of
fuel in use. The lower the flow rate the better the purification efficiency.

Sufficient separating capacity is required. The best and most disturbance-free results are obtained with purifier and
clarifier in series. Alternatively the main and stand-by separators may run in parallel, but this makes heavier demands
on correct gravity disc choice and constant flow and temperature control to achieve optimum results. Flow rate
through the centrifuges should not exceed the maximum fuel consumption of the engine by more than 10 %.
In case pure distillate fuel is used, centrifuging is still recommended as fuel may be contaminated during transport and
in storage tanks. The full rated capacity of the centrifuge may be used provided the viscosity is less than 12 mm/s at
centrifuging temperature.
1.1.2.4.Comments on fuel characteristics
1

Viscosity determines the complexity of the fuel heating and handling system, which should be considered
when estimating installation economy. The standard engine fuel system is designed for fuels up to the viscosity
class 55.

When the density exceeds 0.991 g/ml at 15C water, and to some extent solid matter, can no longer be
removed with certainty by a centrifuge. Centrifuging systems claiming to clean fuel oils with densities up to
1.010 g/ml at 15C are on the market. If such systems of the so called controlled discharge design are
installed, fuels with densities up to 1.010 g/ml at 15C may be used.

Note!
High density fuels with low viscosity may have low ignition quality.

Higher sulphur content increases the risk for corrosion and wear, particularly at low loads, and may
contribute to high-temperature deposit formation. The lubricating oil specification must be matched to such
qualities.

High ash content causes abrasive wear, and may cause high temperature corrosion and contributes to
formation of deposits. The most harmful ash constituents are the vanadium-sodium combinations.

High vanadium content causes high temperature corrosion on hot parts like exhaust valves, particularly in
combination with high sodium content. The corrosion accelerates with increased temperatures (increased engine
output).

Sodium (Na)contributes to hot corrosion on hot parts like exhaust valves in combination with high vanadium
(V) content. Sodium also contributes strongly to fouling of the turbine blading of the turbocharger at high
exhaust gas temperature. The permissable content of Na of the cleaned fuel should be below 30 ppm.

High "carbon residue" may cause deposit formation in combustion chamber and exhaust system, particularly
at low engine output.

High content of asphaltenes may contribute to deposit formation in the combustion chamber and exhaust
systems (at low loads). Asphaltenes may under certain circumstances precipitate from the fuel and will block
filters and/or cause deposits in the fuel system. Precipitating asphaltenes may also cause excessive centrifuge
sludge.

Heavy fuels may contain up to 1 % water at delivery. Water can originate from the installation bunker tanks.

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

To avoid difficulties in the engine fuel injection system water must be removed.
10

Reduced ignition and combustion quality can be caused by using HFO from modern refinery processes
compared with "traditional" heavy fuels. HFO from modern refinery processes may approach at least some of
the limits of fuel characteristics.

Ignition quality is not defined nor limited in marine residual fuel standards. The same applies to ISO-F-DMC marine
distillate fuel. The ignition quality of these fuels cannot for a variety of reasons be determined by methods used for
pure distillates, i.e. Diesel Index, Cetane Index and Cetane Number.
Low ignition quality may cause trouble during starting and at low load operation, especially at too low charge air
temperature. This may result in long ignition delay and as a consequence, in high firing pressure rise ratio. The
combustion will be more noisy in this case, known as "Diesel knock", i.e. hard, high pitch combustion noise. Diesel
knock increases mechanical load on components surrounding the combustion space, increases thermal load, increases
lube oil consumption and increases lube oil contamination. Basically a low viscosity, in combination with a high
density, will result in a low ignition quality and is expressed in a CCAI value.

Figure 1.1-3: Nomogram for deriving CCAI


What do the CCAI values mean?
Straight run residues show CCAI values (Calculated Carbon Aromaticy Index) in the 770 to 840 range and are very
good igniters. Cracked residues delivered as bunkers may range from 840 to, in exceptional cases, above 900.
Normal diesel engines should accept CCAI values up to 850 with no difficulties. CCAI values between 850 and 870 may
cause difficulties under unfavourable conditions such as low charge air temperatures, insufficient preheating of the
engine at the start, malfunctioning of fuel injection system (in particular, badly maintained nozzles).
CCAI values above 870 are not advised.
Note!
Although low ignition quality produces long ignition delay, advancing the ignition timing makes things only worse; fuel
is injected at a lower compression temperature and this will produce even longer ignition delay.

1.1.3.Internal fuel system
General
The fuel system on the engine consists of a Low Pressure and a High Pressure part. Both parts are basically situated
inside the Hot Box.

The Low Pressure part consists of a fuel circulating pump, fine filter, HP fuel pump brackets, supply and return lines,
pressure control valve and leak-off lines.
The HP fuel pump brackets are described in chapter [2.9.] , "Injection system".

The High Pressure part consists of the High Pressure (HP) fuel pumps, fuel injectors and High Pressure fuel lines.
These components are described in chapter [2.9.] , "Injection system".

The "Internal Fuel System" diagram is provided in Annex A - Internal systems/Pipe arrangement , of this Instruction
Manual.

1.2.Lubricating Oil System

1.2-PAAE062665-00

1.2.1.Lubricants
Lubricating oil should feature a number of physical and chemical qualities required for reliable diesel engine operation.
Apart from lubricating bearings, cylinder liners, gears, valve mechanism etc., cooling is an important function. The
main engine lubricating oil must also be able to neutralize combustion products on engine parts and to keep these
products well dispersed.
Under normal operation the engine lubricating oil is exposed to high pressures and temperatures. The oil is often finely
divided as a spray or mist, intimately mixed with air and subjected to catalytic effects of various contaminators.
Contact with air results in oxidation and the production of gums, resins and acids.
Other major contaminators are products of combustion, such as soot, ash and (partially) unburnt fuel mixed with the
lubricating oil on the cylinder wall. High sulphur content of the fuel may also accelerate the rate of oil deterioration.
Some of the contaminators can be removed by purification or filtering. Other contaminators eventually will accumulate
to the point where the oil must be discarded. To determine the condition of the oil regular sampling and testing is
necessary. The samples should therefore be sent to a qualified laboratory for a detailed analysis regarding the oil
condition.
The oil manufacturer remains responsible for the quality of the oil under operating conditions. It is the responsibility of
the operator together with the advise of the oil supplier and no-go criteria given by Wrtsil Corporation, to determine
whether or not the oil should be refreshed.
1.2.1.1.Requirements
1.2.1.1.1.Main lubricating oil
Main lubricating oil for the engine must be of an approved brand according to the following specifications:
Viscosity class : SAE 40
Viscosity index (VI) : Min.95
Alkalinity (BN) : The required lube oil alkalinity is tied to the fuel specified for the engine, which is shown in the table
below.

Remarks
Category A and B: If the recommended lube oil BN is not available also an approved lube oil with a BN 30 can be used.
Category C: The recommended lube oil BN is especially valid for engines with a wet oil sump using fuel with a sulphur
content above 2.0 % mass. If experience shows that the lube oil BN equilibrium remains at an acceptable level (fuel
with very low sulphur content) lube oil with a BN 40 can be used. Lube oil with a BN 30 is only recommended in
special cases, such as installations equipped with a SCR catalyst.
Category D: Lube oil with a BN 30 is a recommended alternative.
Additives
The oil should contain additives that ensures good oxidation stability, corrosion protection, load carrying capacity,
neutralisation of acid combustion and oxidation residues and should prevent deposit formation on internal engine parts
(piston cooling gallery, piston ring zone and bearing surfaces in particular).

1.2.1.2.Influences on the lubricating oil condition


When the engine is in operation under "extreme" conditions the operator should check the oil condition more
frequently.
Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:30

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

The following engine conditions are "extreme" :

During the running-in period of an engine when a relative large quantity of metal wear products are formed entering
the lubricating oil.

After replacement of liners and piston rings. The engine running-in process will introduce larger quantities of blowby gas existing in combustion products (sulphur dioxide, water and CO2 ) and liner and piston ring wear products.

Strong fluctuations in engine load create more blow-by.

A bad fuel combustion process caused by bad condition of injectors and/or fuel pumps and insufficient scavenging
air pressure.

A fuel oil quality with a CCAI > 850.

Frequent engine overhaul introduces a relative high percentage of dirt into the crankcase.

Postponed engine maintenance introduces the possibility of water and fuel oil entering the lubricating oil. Piston and
liner wear increase the quantity of blow-by gas.

Frequently cold starting.

High sulphur content in fuel (> 3% ) causing fast BN depletion.

1.2.1.3.Testing of main lubricating oil


It is the duty of the operator to monitor the behaviour of the lubricating oil carefully and regularly in order to ensure
the oil remains in a good condition. This is particularly necessary when a new engine is put into operation or when a
change is made in brand of oil in an engine already in operation or when oil is taken from a batch with different
composition. However it is not advised to mix different types of lubricating oil and in such a case always consult the
lubricating oil supplier. During testing the quality of lubricating oil the instructions of the oil supplier have to be
observed. It is advised with a new engine or after a major overhaul to take samples of the lubricating oil at intervals of
250 operating hours and send it to a qualified laboratory.
On the basis of the results it is possible to determine suitable intervals.
Recommendations for sampling

Samples should be drawn from the sampling valve which is specifically fitted for this purpose.

Ensure the total quantity of oil in circulation is approximately the same prior to drawing each sample.

Draw samples only when the engine is running and the oil is at normal operating temperature.

Before filling the sampling container open the sampling cock and drain some oil to make sure that it is flushed and
hot oil is flowing slowly from the outlet point.

Draw oil samples directly into clean, dry containers of one litre capacity.

Draw a sample during a period of about ten minutes.

Shake the sample thoroughly before pouring into the sample bottle provided for this purpose; the bottle should not
be filled over 90% of its content.

1.2.1.5.Comments on lubricating oil characteristics


1

Centrifuging of the system oil is required in order to separate water and insolubles from the oil. Do not
supply water during purifying. The oil should be preheated till 80-90C. Many oil manufacturers recommend a
separation temperature of 85-95C for an effective separation. Please check with the supplier of your
lubricating oil for the optimal temperature. Select the highest recommended temperature. For efficient
centrifuging, use not more than 20% of the rated flow capacity of the separator. For optimum conditions, the
centrifuge should be capable of passing the entire oil quantity in circulation 4-5 times every 24 hour at 20% of
rated flow. The gravity disc should be selected according to the oil density at separation temperature.

Note!
Defects on "self-cleaning" separators can, under certain circumstances, quickly increase the water content of the oil

At 150C a serious risk of a crankcase explosion exists.


3

Water content
Lubricating oil with a high water content must be purified or discarded.

Choose BN according to our recommendations.


A too low BN value increases the risk of corrosion and contamination of the engine components.

Insolubles
The quantity of insolubles allowed depends on various factors. The oil supplier' s recommendations should be
closely followed.
1.5% Insolubles in n-Pentane call for action, however, it can be said that changes in the analyses usually give a
better basis for estimation than the absolute values.

Rapid and big changes of insolubles may indicate abnormal operation of the engine or system.
6

Sudden increase of wear metals indicates that there is abnormal wear. Immediate actions should be taken to
find the cause. If necessary contact the oil supplier and/or the engine manufacturer

Measure and record the quantity added for compensation of the oil consumption. Attention to lubricating oil
consumption may give valuable information about the engine condition. A continuous increase may indicate
wear of piston rings, pistons and cylinder liners. A sudden increase demands inspection of pistons if no other
reason is found.

Intervals between changes are influenced by system content (oil volume), operating conditions, fuel oil
quality, centrifuging efficiency and total oil consumption. Efficient centrifuging in combination with large systems
(dry sump operation) generally allow longer intervals between changes.

Daily top up of the circulating tank/wet sump will extend the life time of the lubricating oil.

1.2.1.6.Recommendations for refreshing lubricating oil


Note!
Utmost cleanliness should be observed during lubricating oil treatment. Dirt, metal particles, rags etc. may cause
serious bearing damage. After disconnecting pipes or components from the system cover all openings with gaskets
and or tape. Avoid dirt and water entering the lubricating oil during transport and storage.

engine dry sump, flows to an external lubricating oil sump tank which has to be drained. If lubricating oil
remains in the engine dry sump it can be drained by plug (1).
For draining of the lubricating oil module see section [1.2.3.2.] .
Be sure external pipes are also emptied.
2

Clean oil spaces including camshaft and filter compartments.

Check filter candles of the automatic back-flushing filter and renew filter candles if necessary, see section
[1.2.3.2.3.]

Supply the required quantity of oil into the system.

The oil interval can efficiently be predicted by plotting the analyses taken at regular intervals.

Copies of the lubrication oil analysis should be kept on archive for at least 12,000 running hours of the engine.
1.2.2.Internal lubricating oil system
The lubricating oil system of the engine is integrated in the engine construction. Most components are connected to
the engine without external piping.
Built-on are:

Lubricating oil pump with pressure control valve and non return valve.

Prelubricating oil pump.

Lubricating oil module with cooler, filter and thermostatic valves.

Oil flow connecting rod
Via a "cross-over" (15) in the crankshaft the oil flows from the main bearing journal to the crankpin journal and big
end bearings.
Via large size holes the oil flows into a circumferential groove (16), see [fig. 1.2-4] , in the bearing cap and partly in
the upper part of the connecting rod big end. The oil is conducted through a vertical drilling in the connecting rod up to
the gudgeon pin bearing (17).

Oil flow piston
Through holes in the middle of gudgeon pin the oil enters a distribution space and leaves through holes at both outer
ends. See [fig. 1.2-5] .

Figure 1.2-5: Gudgeon pin


Oil is discharged into 4 vertical drillings in the piston skirt (20), see [fig. 1.2-6] . At the end of the vertical drillings the
lubricating oil flow is restricted by orifices (19) to control the quantity of oil for piston crown cooling.
Four spray holes take care of lubrication of liner, piston skirt and piston rings during engine operation. The flows are
restricted by orifices (18). The excess of lubricating oil on the liner is scraped off by a scraper ring and drained via a
groove, below the scraper ring, through holes in piston skirt down into the crank case.
After passing the restrictions in top of the piston skirt the lubricating oil enters the outer space (21) of the piston
crown. The outer space is separated from the center space by a rim in which two horizontal grooves at certain height.
Due to these grooves the outer crown space is always partly filled with oil.
During the up and down stroke of the piston the lubricating oil is shaken and increased in speed, intensively cooling
the piston crown. The displaced oil flows to the center section (22) of the piston crown. A second shaker action takes
place cooling the center of the crown. After cooling down the piston the lubricating oil flows to the engine sump.

Figure 1.2-20: Thermostatic valve


Operation
Cooling systems will usually operate at or slightly below or above nominal temperature.
Any system operating at a deviation of 6C or more from nominal is probably malfunctioning. The cause should be
located and corrected immediately.
Maintenance
It is advised to check periodically the correct working range of the elements. This can be done by slowly heating the
elements in a bucket with water while measuring the water temperature. Replace elements out of range. The nominal
temperature range is mentioned on the elements.
Warning!
Elements exposed to a temperature of more than 10C above the nominal working range will be damaged and

should be renewed.

Trouble shooting
In the event the cooling system does not operate near to the operating temperature see section [2.3.2.6.1.] for help
to find the problem.
1.2.3.2.3.Automatic back-flushing filter
General
The automatic back-flushing filter (1), see [fig. 1.2-21] is mounted on the lubricating oil cooler housing (2). The filter
works with permanent back-flushing using its own process fluid. No external power is required to operate the
automatic filter.
The solids caught by filter (1) are fed during the continuous back-flushing process to the centrifugal filter via
connection (3).
The back-flushed oil is filtered by the centrifugal filter and flows back into the engine sump via connection (12), see
[fig. 1.2-27] .

Figure 1.2-22: Automatic back-flushing filter (Filtration phase)


Filtration phase
The oil to be filtered enters through inlet (11) and passes the turbine (35). The turbine drives the rotating flushing
arm (41). After the turbine the oil enters the filter candles (36) at both ends. Direct at the right side and via the
central connection tube (37) at the left side. The oil flows from the inside to the outside leaving most of the dirt
particles behind at the inside of the filter candles (36).
The fluid filtered in this way now passes through the protective filter (38) to the filter outlet (12).

Figure 1.2-23: Automatic back-flushing filter (Back-flushing phase)


Back-flushing phase
The oil flow energy drives the turbine (35) installed in the inlet flange (11). The high speed of the turbine (35) is
reduced by the worm gear unit (39) and gear (40) to the lower speed required for turning the flushing arm (41).
The individual filter candles (36) are now connected successively via the continuously rotating flushing arm (41) to the
flushing bush (42).

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

The lower pressure in the interior of the filter candles (36) during the back-flushing operation and the higher pressure
outside the filter candles (36) produce a counter-flow through the mesh from the clean filter side via the dirty filter
side to the centrifugal filter via connection (34), see [fig, 1.2-23] .
The counter-flow together with the cross-flow (unfiltered oil entering the top side of the filter candles (36)) result in an
efficient cleaning action.
The rotary motion of the flushing facility can be seen at the visible shaft end (43) in the left filter cover (48).

Figure 1.2-24: Automatic back-flushing filter (Overflow valves)


Functioning of the overflow valves
Should for any reason the filter candles (36) (first filter stage) no longer be adequately cleaned, the overflow valves
(44) are opened at a differential pressure of 2 bar upwards and all the fluid is filtered through the protective filter (38)
(second filter stage).
However, before this situation arises, it is given a differential pressure warning (remote control). The cause must now
be localised and remedied.
If this warning is ignored, an alarm is emitted by the second contact of the differential pressure indicator.
Note!
The filter may only be operated in this emergency condition for a short time (opened overflow valves and differential
pressure warning). Prolonged operation in this mode can result in damage to engine components.
The overflow valves are closed under normal operating conditions, even during start-up at lower fluid temperatures.

Figure 1.2-25: Automatic back-flushing filter (Maintenance)


Maintenance
Even with automatic filters inspections and maintenance must be performed at regular intervals.
It is important to remember that in spite of constant back-flushing the mesh may become clogged over the course of
time, depending on the quality of the fluid.
In order to maintain trouble-free operation, the following aspects are to be observed during maintenance:
1

The filter must be switched off for all maintenance work.

Check filter and connections for leaks.

Conduct visual inspection of all filter candles (36) once a year.

Note!
Should a higher differential pressure occur beforehand, all the filter candles (36) and the protective filter (38) must
be checked and, if necessary, cleaned.
See also section "filter candle inspection and cleaning".
Warning!
A highly contaminated protective filter (38) is a sign of prolonged operation with defective or clogged filter candles
(36) and thus opened overflow valves (44), see fig.1.2 - 24 .
It is necessary to check these components.

Check the ease of movement of the turbine (35), the worm gear unit (39), including gear (40) with flushing
arm (41).

Note!
To check this the cover (45) must be removed. Now check the ease of movement with a suitable spanner on the
hexagon of the worm gear unit (46), see [fig. 1.2-25] .
If movement is sluggish, refer to section "Sources of faults and their remedy".

It is recommended to replace the filter candles (36) after 2 years.

Note!

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

Longer use is also possible if the filter candles (36) are checked carefully.

Replace the dynamic loaded seals (47), see fig.1.2 - 23 when required.

It is advisable to replace all static seals during an overhaul.

After immersing the filter candles (36), clean them from the outside inwards using high pressure.

Note!
It must be ensured that the filter candles are cleaned at a pressure of max. 60 bar and at a minimum distance of the
cleaning nozzle of 20 cm. Otherwise, damage to the mesh is possible.

14

Before the filter candles (36) are installed, they must be visually inspected and damaged candles replaced by
new ones.

Note!
Defective filter candles (36) must not be used again.
Note!
Before installation of the entire filter element, the ease of motion of the flushing facility must be checked. The
flushing arm (41) must not grind against the bottom filter plate (50)

15

Now push the entire filter element into the housing.


By slightly turning the flushing shaft (43), the gear (40) is forced into the drive pinion of the gear unit (39).

1.2.3.3.Centrifugal filter
The centrifugal filter is mounted on the engine as a part of the engine filter system.
The centrifugal filter starts working when the engine runs and lubricating oil feed valve (1) is open for supply from the
back-flushing filter at (2) and for supply to the centrifugal drive at (3), see [fig. 1.2-26] .
The valve is open with the lever in the vertical position ("ON").
For maintenance of the filter, switch the lever of valve (1) to horizontal position ("SERVICE" position), to close the oil
supply (3) to the centrifugal drive and to connect the oil supply from the back-flushing filter at (2) directly to drain
hole (12) to the engine sump. See [fig. 1.2-27] .

Figure 1.2-26: Centrifugal filter on engine


Operation
The filter comprises a housing (4) in which a dynamically balanced rotor assembly (5) with a hardened steel spindle
(6) rotates. The rotor comprises a cleaning chamber(7) and an outlet chamber (8). The oil flow at connection (2) from
the back-flushing filter enters at the inner side of the spindle (6) and flows to the cleaning chamber (7). The oil then

from the rotor bottom.

Clean the parts of the rotor assembly and the filter housing (4). Ensure that all rotor components are
thoroughly cleaned and free from dirt deposits.

Note!
For easy removal of dirt in the rotor unit use a paper insert.
For the part number of the insert see the parts catalogue.
If the filter has reached the maximum dirt deposit layer thickness of 25mm within the recommended cleaning interval
(weekly), it is necessary to clean the filter more frequently.

Clean the jet pipe outlets (10) of the rotor drive with compressed air.

Examine the lower bearing in the filter housing and the ball bearing in the filter cover (14) to ensure they are
free from damage or excessive wear. Examine the O-rings for damage. Renew if necessary.

1.2.4.Crankcase breathing system
The function of the crankcase breather is to avoid overpressure in the crankcase caused by blow-by of the piston rings
and/or bad functioning turbocharger sealings.
The crankcase breather consists of a housing (1), containing a horizontally positioned plate valve (2), see
.
Any crankcase over pressure is released via the plate valve and the vent pipe (3).
Inspect proper functioning of the system periodically during engine operation. The free end of the vent pipe should be

covered by an anti flame gauze. Clean this gauze periodically to avoid crankcase over pressure.
A part of the crankcase gases consists of water vapour that, in contact with the relative colder vent pipe, will
condensate. Condensate runs down and is collected at the bottom of the breather and drained at connection (4), see
[fig. 1.2-29] .

Figure 1.2-29: Crankcase breather and vent pipe


The drained condensate via connection (4) during "normal" engine operation at certain load is a fixed amount. Check
this quantity daily. An increased quantity of condensate might indicate e.g.:

more gas blow-by by possible worn or sticked piston rings

water in the crankcase caused by a leaking O-rings.

bad functioning turbocharger sealings.

Note!
Excessive smoke from crankcase breather might indicate that a hot spot is vaporizing lubricating oil and may lead to
a crankcase explosion.

1.3.Starting Air System

1.3-PAAE062665-00

1.3.1.General
The start of an engine requires a large amount of air under high pressure for a relatively brief period. To meet this
demand it is necessary to provide a system for compressed air stored in vessels until needed.
The starting air system should consist of an air compressor driven by an electric motor, air vessel(s), pressure gauge,
relief valve, piping to the engine and a compressed air supply valve located near the engine.
Normally, the minimum compressor capacity should be sufficient to replenish the starting air for the largest unit in one
hour after such supply has been reduced to the minimum pressure necessary to start the engine.
The total air vessel volume depends on the air storage pressure, the number of starts required before recharging the
vessels, the number of engines in the installation and the starting air requirements for the largest engine.
At least two vessels should be available in each installation to insure that starting air pressure is always available even
if a vessel is out of service for any reason.
The compressed air system should be free of condensation and the most effective way to prevent condensation
occurring in a compressed air line is to ensure that the air has a dew-point below the temperature to which any part of
the system will be exposed for an appreciable period of time. This can be achieved by appropriated components.
Water in compressed air systems can give rise to one or several of the following indirect costs:

water damage to instrumentation and compressed air starter motor.

rusting of pipework which will lead to leaking traps, joints and solenoids etc.

clogging of hygroscopic materials.

1.3.2.Start stop system


Engine start process
The engine is started by compressed air for driving the compressed air starter motor(s) ( max. 30 bar and min. 15
bar), see [fig. 1.3-1] .
On a signal to start the engine:

Start solenoid valve (01) is activated electrically,

Admitting throttled air to rotate the starter motor slowly while connecting the bendix 'L' to the gear ring on the
flywheel.

after the bendix is engaged, valve 'F' opens the air supply to switch valve 'H' into open position, supplying full air
pessure to the starter motor 'K'.

the starter motor 'K' starts to rotate the engine.

At the moment the engine fires, solenoid valve (01) is de-energized, valve 'F' is depressurized and the main starting
valve 'H' is closed. The air supply to the compressed air starter motor stops.

Emergency engine start
The start solenoid valve is provided with an emergency start push button. For the emergency start procedure see
section [2.3.1.7.]
Warning!
Be aware that all safety devices are overruled if the engine is started by using the emergency start push button.

Engine stop
When the engine has to be stopped by the operator or by the protecting system, solenoid (7) is activated admitting air
(30 bar) to the stop cylinders (5) mounted on the HP fuel pump racks, see [fig. 1.6-5] and 1.3 - 2 .
Air bottle (4) contains sufficient control air to stop the engine in case of too low control air pressure in the main supply
line.
For the control and safety system, see chapter [1.6.]

1.3.3.Compressed air starter motor
1.3.3.1.General
The compressed air starter motor has two spur gears (rotors). All distribution valves are inside the motor body.
The problem of high torques to be transmitted has been solved by means of a direct mechanical transmission without
clutch or free wheel, and the driving pinion, thus engages directly and smoothly with the flywheel gear ring. The helix,
carrying the pinion, is supported by the motor body.
Air starters can be operated manually or remote.
Although starters are designed to work at a pressure of 30 bar they can operate also at lower pressures.
An electrically start interlock and a pneumatically start interlock prevent running of the compressed air starter motor
in case the turning gear is engaged.
1.3.3.2.Description of compressed air starter motor
Control circuit
After opening the starting air vessels, air is admitted into duct (1), and via tubes (2) and (3), to start solenoid valve
(4), see [fig. 1.3-3] .
By manually or remote operating valve (4), the valve stem closes orifice (5) and air passes tube (6) operating piston
(7). Piston (7) opens valve (8) closing at the same time orifice (9) which is connected to the atmosphere. Air from
duct (1), via tube (2), charges channel (10).

Figure 1.3-3: Compressed air starter motor disengaged


Pre-engagement
Air in channel (10) and channel (12), passing the check valve-orifice (13), is filling ducting (14), see [fig. 1.3-4] . A
small flow of air is now driving the rotary motor (15) in a slow motion.
By means of shaft (16), engaged with internal gear (17), the rotary motor transmits an even more reduced rotating
movement through helix (18) to shaft (19) and so the driving pinion (20). Simultaneously, air in channel (10) pushes
piston (11) and shaft (19) outwards against the spring force (22).
Due to this axial displacement and slow motion of the rotary motor (15), driving pinion (20) is gentle engaged, with
the additional help of helix (18), into the gear ring (23) of the engine flywheel.

Figure 1.3-4: Engaging process compressed air starter motor


Start
When the driving pinion (20) is fully engaged, piston (11) is displaced which opens gate (25) for air to piston (26), see
fig.1.3 - 5 . Piston (26) operates the main air valve (27).
Starting air, from duct (1) into duct (14), starts driving the rotary motor with increasing speed. The diesel engine
accelerates in speed up to firing speed. The starting air, after passing the rotary motor, is exhausted at (30), see
[fig. 1.3-5] .

Figure 1.3-5: Compressed air starter motor engaged


Stop
Once the engine start is achieved, valve (4) is manually or remotely closed. Air, acting on piston (7), is vented
through tube (6) and orifice (5) to atmosphere, see [fig. 1.3-6] .
As piston (7) is not longer pressurized, valve (8) closes and orifice (9) opens venting the air from channel (10).
Check valve/orifice (13) is closed by pressure in duct (14). Piston (26) is released and main air valve (27) is closing.
Due to the high speed, achieved by rotors (28) and (29) of the rotary motor (15), a vacuum is created in duct (14)
opening check valve-orifice (13). Vacuum in channel (12), (10) and (25) is retracting piston (11), shaft (19) and
pinion (20) disconnecting the compressed air starter motor from the engine flywheel (23).

1.4.Cooling Water System

1.4-PAAE062665-00

1.4.1.General
To prevent formation of scale and to maintain the highly efficient and uniform heat transfer rate through the engine
liners and cylinder heads, only soft, treated water (cooling water), should be used. Furthermore, water should be free
of corrosive properties. A competent water chemist specialised in closed cooling water circuits or manufacturer of
water treatment chemicals should be consulted for recommendations.
1.4.2.Cooling water
1.4.2.1.General
Cooling water = Make-up water + additives.
Make-up water has to meet certain requirements. Water that normally fulfils these requirements, in order of
preference :

Demineralized water.

Reverse osmosis water.

Distillate, (provided the quality is good, little corrosion products, salts etc.).

Softened and decarbonated water.

Softened water.

Cooling water must be treated with an additive in order to prevent corrosion, scale or other deposits in closed
circulating water systems.
Example of water that normally not fulfils these requirements:

Rainwater has a high oxygen and carbon dioxide content; great risk of corrosion.

Drinking water in many places is practically too hard and may contain considerable quantities of chlorides.

Sea water will cause severe corrosion and deposit formation, even if supplied to the system in small amounts.

Note!
The better the water quality the less additive has to be supplied.
Make-up water must be checked before adding the additive. For requirements see section [1.4.2.2.]

Not re-usable cooling water should be drained and disposed of in an ecologically safe way.
1.4.2.3.Qualities of cooling water additives
General
Use of approved cooling water additives during the warranty period is mandatory and is also strongly recommended
after the warranty period.
Start always with the maximum concentration of additives due to the fact that the concentration of active corrosion
inhibitors drops in time.
Approved cooling water additives
For approved cooling water additives and systems please contact Wrtsil Corporation.

1.4.2.4.Cooling water control
Check the cooling water quality according the maintenance schedule.
Most suppliers of cooling water additives can provide a test kit for measuring the active corrosion inhibitors.
Note!
With most additives correct dosing is very important. Under dosing of additives causes spot corrosion while overdoses
may cause deposits.
Request the supplier of the treatment product for instructions, procedures, dosage and concentration based on the
applicable make -up water.

Follow thoroughly the instructions of the supplier.

Record results of tests in the engine log book.

1.4.3.Internal cooling water system


1.4.3.1.General
Engine cooling is arranged by two separate cooling water circuits.
The High Temperature circuit and the Low Temperature circuit.

The HT cooling water circuit cools the cylinders and the HT section (first stage) of the charge air cooler.

The LT cooling water circuit cools the LT section (second stage) of the charge air cooler and the lubricating oil
cooler.

Most components are connected to the engine without external piping.


Built-on are:

HT and LT thermostatic valves.

HT and LT cooling water pump with non return valves.

Charge air cooler HT and LT section.

Lubricating oil cooler.

Connecting piece for cooling water in and outlet.

Common cooling water venting point.

For maintenance background information, safety aspects, tools, intervals, tolerances, inspection, tightening torque
and procedures see chapter [2.4.]
1.4.3.2.Description HT cooling water system
At the suction side (1) of the HT cooling water pump (2) water returning from the engine and water from the external
cooler (16) is mixed in the thermostatic block (3). The cooling water at the correct temperature is forced to (4A) and
(4B); the cooling water inlet channels for A- and B-bank.

Figure 1.4-1: General flow HT cooling water system


Flow from cylinder liner to cylinder head
The cooling water flows with a relatively low speed from the inlet channel (4) at the bottom of the liners upwards
almost to the top of the liners. At the exhaust side, a recess in the engine block makes it possible to pass the rim
around the liner. Next cooling water flows with increased speed from one side to the other resulting in better cooling
of the liner top side.
After circulating around the liner top side, cooling water is collected at camshaft side in a vertical drilling in top of the
engine block. An interconnecting pipe (11) conducts the cooling water into the cylinder head bottom side, see
[fig. 1.4-2] .

Figure 1.4-2: Interconnection into cylinder head


Cylinder head
The cooling water is forced over the cylinder head bottoms and along the injector sleeves. A part of the cooling water
is forced around both the exhaust valve seats. In a common space in the cylinder head, cooling water is cooling the
exhaust gas ductings. Cooling water is collected at top of the cylinder head at exhaust gas side into the multiduct
(12). After the multiduct water goes to the outlet channel (5A and 5B), see [fig. 1.4-1] .
HT cooling water charge air cooler
The water from the engine main outlet (5A) and (5B) is conducted to the HT section (8) of the charge air cooler (first
stage). See also charge air and exhaust gas system, chapter [1.5.] From the charge air cooler the water is conducted
via (9) and (10) and the thermostatic block (3) to the external cooler (15) or the suction side (1) of the cooling water
pump, see [fig. 1.4-1] .
Thermostatic valves
Relative cold water, returning from the external HT water cooler, is mixed with hot water from the engine outlet by a
thermostatic valve to the correct temperature for the engine inlet. The thermostatic block accommodates the
thermostatic valve for HT and LT cooling water circuits. The upper four thermostats control the engine HT water inlet
temperature to the engine. The lower six thermostats control the engine LT water inlet temperature to the engine. Be
careful when elements of different liquid systems are become mixed up for instance during testing on working range.
Sleeve (1) avoids flow between the two channels and is not provided with a thermostatic valve.

Operation
Cooling systems will usually operate at or slightly below or above nominal temperature.
Any system operating at a deviation of 6C or more from nominal is probably malfunctioning. The cause should be
located and corrected immediately.
Trouble shooting
In the event the cooling system does not operate near to the operating temperature see section [2.3.2.6.1.] for help
to find the problem.

Check the element by heating it slowly in water while measuring the water temperature. Check at which
temperature the valve starts to open. The nominal temperature range is mentioned on the elements.

Note!
Be careful not to mix the thermostatic valves of different liquid systems due to the fact that each system has its own
working range.

Renew element if damaged or out of range.

1.4.3.3.Description LT cooling water system


At the suction side (1) of the LT cooling water pump (2) water returning from the engine and water returning from the
external cooler (15) is mixed in the thermostatic block (3). The cooling water at the correct temperature is forced to
(4) and via an internal channel to (5) entering at (6) the Low Temperature section (second stage) of the charge air
cooler (See also chapter [1.5.] ). After cooling, the cooling water leaves at (7), and is conducted via (8) to (9) a
connection to a channel at B-bank side of the engine block base to connection (10) at the driving end of the engine.
From connection (10) the cooling water is conducted via inlet (11) and outlet (12) of the lubricating oil cooler (See
also chapter [1.2.] ) to (13) and returs through a channel at the A-bank side via the thermostatic block (3) to the
external cooler (14) or to the suction side (1) of the cooling water pump at the free end of the engine. See
.

Figure 1.4-4: General flow LT cooling water system


1.4.3.4.Cooling water pump
Cooling water pumps for HT and LT circuit are identical in components, after assembling the suction and the pressure
side connections are different for HT and LT cooling water pump. Maintenance of the pump exists mainly in replacing
the water and/or oil seal in case of leakage. A leaking seal is indicated by liquid which appears from hole (11).
The bearings are lubricated by engine oil though the hole (19) See [fig. 1.4-5] .

1.4.4.Maintenance cooling water system
1.4.4.1.General
Normally, no reason for maintenance of the cooling water systems exists unless the temperatures tend to rise without
clear reason. A deviation in cooling water temperature can be caused by malfunctioning of one of the cooling water
thermostats. Normally, all inspections and cleaning of cooling water system components should be carried out at
planned intervals.
If the risk of freezing occurs, drain all water by opening the plugs of the highest and lowest points in the external
system. Collect drained water for re-use.
If an emulsion oil has been used the entire system must be cleaned from oil deposits. Changing brand and type of
additives requires cleaning by flushing of the entire system.
Compensate leakage or spillage by treated water.
1.4.4.2.Cleaning
In completely closed systems fouling will be minimal if cooling water is treated according instructions in section
[1.4.2.]
Depending on the cooling water quality and the efficiency of the treatment, cooling water spaces may or may not foul
over the length of time. Deposits on cylinder liners, cylinder heads and cooler stacks should be removed to avoid
disturbance in heat transfer to the cooling water with thermal overload as consequence.
Necessity of cleaning should be investigated, especially during the first year of operation. This may be executed during
a cylinder liner inspection on fouling and deposits on the liner and block. Deposits can quite vary in structure and
consistency and can in principle mechanically and/or chemically be removed.
1.4.4.3.Cooling water venting
To keep the quantity of air in the cooling water low, the water surface in the make-up tank and expansion tank must
be free of turbulence.
Permanent venting pipes are to end below the water level. Check periodically the tank level. Air also tends to enter the
cooling water through a defective shaft seal of the cooling water pump when the suction pressure is below zero.
Continuous venting points of the HT cooling water system are located on the multiducts (1). With the ball valve(s) (2)
the system can be vented manually, see [fig. 1.4-8] .
The venting plugs of the LT cooling water system are located on the charge air cooler and the lube oil cooler and are

mend to de-aerate while filling up the HT and LT cooling water systems, see chapter [1.5 ] and 1.2.
The central venting connection (3) is connected to the expansion tank. Due to overpressure in the system a positive
flow exists to the expansion tank.

1.5.Charge Air and Exhaust Gas System

1.5-PAAE062665-00

1.5.1.General
The term "charge air" or "supercharging" refers to the practice of filling the cylinder, with air at a pressure
substantially higher than atmospheric pressure to support the combustion of the fuel, plus a sufficient excess to
control internal combustion and exhaust gas temperatures.
Supercharging is realised by a turbo charging system consisting of centrifugal compressor(s) each driven by an
exhaust gas turbine.
Turbochargers utilise energy in the exhaust gasses and improve the engine efficiency. The speed of turbochargers has
no fixed ratio to the engine speed but will vary with the load.
1.5.2.Quality of suction air filtration
The highest allowable concentration of dust and harmful components at the turbocharger inlet, after filtration, is given
in the table below.

Note! mn is given at 0C and 1013 mbar.

Measurements are to be performed during a 24-hour period and the highest 1-hour average is to be compared with
the above mentioned boundary values.
Weather conditions such as wind speed, wind direction, ambient temperature and air humidity may vary considerable
during one year. Therefore a one-day measurement may not reflect the most critical situation.
A detailed investigation concerning filtration has to be done in installations where the air includes components that are
known to be caustic, corrosive or toxic.
1.5.3.Internal system
Components of the internal system built-on the engine are:

Air intake filter with silencer on the turbocharger.

Turbocharger

Two stage charge air cooler with HT and LT section

Compressor cleaning device

The "Internal Charge Air Exhaust Gas System" diagram is provided in Annex A - Internal systems/Pipe arrangement,
of this Instruction Manual.
1.5.4.Charge air system
1.5.4.1.General
If the engine takes combustion air from the engine room, all combustion air should than first be supplied into the
engine room. The design of engine room ventilation, special in the vicinity of the charge air intake filters, can highly
influence the good performance of the engine combustion process. Full air supply to the air intake filter under arctic
conditions may create too low combustion gas temperature, and ambient air further heated in the engine room under
tropical conditions will raise the exhaust gas temperatures in the engine far too much. For good engine operation the
following should be taken into consideration:
Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:31

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

Engine room ventilation should be such that water, foam, sand, dust exhaust smoke etc. can't enter the engine
room.

Avoid heating of fresh combustion air by striking hot engine room machinery.

In case the engine room temperature raises over 45C the engine room ventilation ducting should be directed even
nearer to the turbocharger inlet filter to avoid further heating of the fresh air. If such situation cannot be arranged,
derating of the engine load should be considered to avoid thermal overloading the engine.

Avoid discharge of generator cooling air to the turbocharger intake.

For restrictions on suction air temperatures, see chapter [2.3.]

It is recommended to have separate ventilators for combustion air and ventilating system provided. Air supply fans
must be dimensioned to obtain a slight over pressure in the engine room, but must not exceed 1 mbar.
Note!
For maintenance background information, safety aspects, intervals, tolerances, inspections, tools and torque spanner
instructions, see chapter [2.4.]
1.5.4.2.Charge air cooler
To maintain the required charged air temperature at higher engine load the charge air has to be cooled.
The temperature at the compressor discharge side at full load is approximately 200C. To cool the charged air after
the compressor the air passes a two stage air cooler (1) in which the compressed air is cooled by water. See
[fig. 1.5-1] .
The first stage is cooled by HT water and cools the charge air till approximately 90-100C. The second stage is cooled
with water from the LT water system and cools the charge air till the required temperature of approximately 50C.

Figure 1.5-1: Charge air cooler


1.5.4.2.1.Cooler stack
The cooler stack (6), with build-on cooling water manifold (7) and cooling water box (8), is located inside a cast
housing (9).
At the bottom side the charge air in and outlet casings are provided with drain holes for condensate, which are

combined in one condensate drain pipe (10). See [fig. 1.5-2] .


The cooling water manifold (7) contains the HT and LT supply and return connections with drain plugs (11) for the HT
system and drain plugs (12) for the LT system. See [fig. 1.5-1] .
HT water enters the cooler at (2) and is discharged at (3). LT water enters the cooler at (4) and is discharged at (5).

Figure 1.5-2: Cooler stack


1.5.4.2.2.Operation
To prevent the cooling water from freezing when the engine is not in operation the temperature in the engine room
should be kept at a minimum temperature of + 5 C. When the temperature is below 5 C precautions have to be
taken by means of anti freeze additives. In this case it must be realized that this affects the heat balance.
A rising air temperature accompanied by a fall in air pressure indicates the fin plates around the tubes are becoming
contaminated. A rising air temperature with water pressure difference over the cooler indicates contamination inside
the tubes by scale or dirt. In either case cleaning of the cooler stack is required.
LT cooling water supply and discharge between the engine and the charge air cooler flows via manifold (13), which
contains a by-pass valve (14), see [fig. 1.5-3] . This by-pass valve is adjusted during commissioning of the engine.

Figure 1.5-3: Cooling water by-pass


1.5.4.3.Condensate draining
Check daily, during operation of the engine, if the condensate drain pipes located on the housing of the charge air
cooler and charge air receiver are open. Under normal operating conditions only compressed air should escape from
these holes and possible some condensate.
If excessive water escapes from the condensate drain pipes this can be caused by:
- Condensate due to high air humidity.
Condensate can be formed at the outside of the tubes of the LT part of the air cooler and is carried together with the
air into the combustion chambers of the cylinders.
The quantity of condensate depends on the suction air temperature, humidity, charge air pressure and charge air
temperature. There will always be some condensate on the pipes of the LT section of the charge air cooler. By
increasing the temperature of the the LT cooling water before the charge air cooler the quantity of condensate is
reduced.
Do not reduce the cooling water flow.
Excessive water (condensate) in the combustion chambers can cause corrosion on liners, piston rings and pistons and
cold corrosion on fuel injector nozzles.
- Charge air cooler stack has one or more leaking tubes.
This should be confirmed by a lowering of the level of the HT and / or LT expansion tank. Check the kind of water
(treated water or not) Continuously water leaking when the engine is out of operation may indicate a leaking cooler
stack.
Inspection of the cooler stack on short notice is required.
Note!
Condensate drain points have the function to inform the operator on the presence of water in the charge air receiver.
Condensate drain points are not designed to drain large quantities of water and should always be open.

1.5.4.4.Maintenance
Clean the cooler at intervals according to chapter [2.4.] or, if at full load, the charge air temperature cannot be
maintained.

1.5.4.4.1.Cleaning
General
Cleaning of the water and air side of the charge air cooler is required to restore thermal cooler performance. Cleaning
can be done either mechanical, hydraulic or chemical. Several international companies supply equipment and
chemicals for cleaning of heat exchangers.
Cleaning intervals vary with the mode of operation, cooling water and intake air quality, etc.
During cleaning the cooler should internally be inspected on scaling and corrosion.
Scale increases the risk of pitting corrosion and scale coming loose blocks the tubes leading to erosion.
Always check for erosion after cleaning.
Cleaning water side
Remove the water covers from the stack and inspect the tubes internally. When deposits are soft, which will occur in
most of the installations, use special nylon brushes connected to a rod. The type of brush must be selected in
accordance with the finned tube. Replace gaskets or O-rings.
Cleaning air side
Remove the cooler stack. To clean the fins of the tubes, immerse the stack in a chemical bath containing a degreasing
solvent. Raising and lowering the stack in the solution or bringing the solution into movement by means of a steam jet
or air, will accelerate the cleaning process. Direct after the cleaning is completed the cooler is to be flushed by
applying a powerful water jet
Note!
When using chemicals take the necessary precaution and follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the
chemicals.
Hydraulic cleaning
Hydraulic cleaning has to be carried out with the cooler stack removed using a high pressure spray gun with a special
nozzle to remove dirt deposits inside the tubes. For the outside of the tubes a nozzle with a diameter of 3 mm is
Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:31

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

recommend. Attack the cooling tubes with the water yet vertical this means parallel to the fins. A suitable distance to
avoid damage is 2 meter.
Note!
When using a high pressure water cleaning device take care not to damage the fins. Damaged fins will result in an
decreased capacity of the cooler stack.
1.5.4.4.2.Repairs
Leaking tubes
Tube leaks can be caused by corrosion, erosion or improper operation of the cooler. A leaking tube cannot be
removed, they are roller expanded into tube plates.
Leaking tubes may be sealed by turned hardwood plugs or rubber plugs on both sides. Up till 10 tubes per system
may be sealed. Fit a new cooler stack or send the cooler stack for repair if more than 10 tubes are leaking.
Hydro test cooler with the specified test pressure which is stated on the name plate fitted on the cooler side wall or
casing.
Leaking seal
All seals are either O-rings, soft metal rings, gaskets or liquid gasket. If necessary disassemble the cooler as far as
needed. Remove dirt and corrosion residues and restore the surfaces in good shape again. Mount new seals.
1.5.5.Exhaust gas system
1.5.5.1.Exhaust gas manifold
The exhaust gas manifold is assembled of manifold sections (2) interconnected by compensators (3). Branches of the
manifold sections are rigid mounted via the multiduct (1) to the cylinder heads and cylinder block, see [fig. 1.5-7] .
The manifold is connected to the turbocharger.
The exhaust gas manifold requires under normal operation conditions no maintenance. A periodical inspection to
connections and to the condition of the compensators is sufficient.
The manifold can be inspected after removal of one or more panels from the insulation box.

1.5.5.2.Multiduct
The multiduct is a casting to conduct HT water, charge air (5) and exhaust gases (1), see [fig. 1.5-8] . The exhaust
channel (1), as part of the multiduct, is cooled by the HT cooling water, entering at (2) and leaving at (3). On top of
the multiduct is a vent connection (4) for the HT cooling water. After the cylinder head is removed, the multiduct
remains in place supporting the exhaust gas manifold.

Figure 1.5-8: Multiduct


Multiduct connection
Each multiduct (1) is connected to the engine block by 6 bolts (2) with distance bushes (3) and sealed with a gasket
(4) and (9), see [fig. 1.5-9] .

Figure 1.5-9: Sealing multiduct / cylinder head / cylinder block


The connection of the multiduct and exhaust gas manifold (5) is face to face; there is no gasket.
The sealing between multiduct and cylinder head for exhaust gas, charge air and HT water is by means of gasket (6).

This gasket is kept in the correct position during assembling with the aid of clips (7). The gasket needs to be replaced
every time the cylinder head is disconnected.
Tighten the bolts (8) according to the torque setting mentioned in section [2.4.4.] Tightening the multiduct bolts
requires the application of a torque spanner [9622ZT215] with extension [9612ZT332] .
1.5.5.3.Compensators
Compensators in the exhaust gas manifold enable thermal expansion of the manifold. Make sure that, whenever the
compensators have to be replaced, the arrow on the compensators corresponds to the gas flow direction. See
[fig. 1.5-10] . There is no gasket between compensators and exhaust manifold, it is a face to face connection.

Figure 1.5-10: Gas flow through compensators


Note!
When reinstalling a compensator check if flanges of the exhaust manifolds are in line and parallel. Maximum deviation
1mm.
1.5.5.3.1.'V' Clamp installation instructions

Ensure flanges and sealing surfaces are clean.

Place compensator in position and ensure that the flanges assemble freely.

Fit the clamp 'V' sections (1) over the flange profiles. See [fig. 1.5-10] .

Engage the T-bolts through the trunnions and locate the nuts on the T-bolts.

Over-tighten the nuts evenly to 20 Nm, keeping the gaps equal on each side of the clamp, then slacken
them off half a turn.
Next tighten them to the recommended 9-12 Nm.

1.5.5.4.Insulation box
The insulation box (1), enclosing the exhaust gas manifold, is rigid mounted to the multiducts (2), see [fig. 1.5-11] .

Warning!
The heat insulating box is not designed to carry weight.
The heat insulating material, as part of the panels, is at the inside cladded with stainless steel sheeting. This sheeting
should not be painted as part of the heat insulation exist in the reflection of heat radiation.

1.5.5.5.Maintenance
Well designed and installed exhaust gas systems require little maintenance and can be limited to long term visual
periodical inspections consisting of:

Inspection of all the connections in the exhaust gas manifold.

Inspection of all rigid and flexible mountings between exhaust gas system and the engine room structure. Special
attention should be paid to the support of the ducting after the turbocharger. (Load on the turbocharger is not
allowed).

Inspection of the exhaust ducting insulation and cladding between turbocharger and uptake.

1.5.5.6.Operations
1

Check the working of water separating pockets and drainage system of the external exhaust system.

The exhaust gas back pressure should not exceed the maximum mentioned, see section

Check the good working of the sliding supports of the ducting after the turbocharger.

Check during operation of the engine the entire exhaust gas system on gas leakage's.

1.5.6.Turbocharger
The turbocharger consists of a single stage axial-flow turbine and a centrifugal air compressor connected by a single
rotor shaft supported on inboard bearings.
The inboard bearings are lubricated and cooled by the engine lubricating oil system.
The turbocharger is equipped with a cleaning device for the compressor side.

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

The rotor shaft rpm. is measured by a speed transmitter system installed at the compressor side and described in the
sub-suppliers manual of the turbo charger.
1.5.6.1.Maintenance
Maintain the turbocharger according instructions of the turbocharger manufacturer. It is recommended to make use of
the service network of Wrtsil Corporation.
Use high temperature resistant grease on exhaust bolt connections.
1.5.6.2.Turbocharger cleaning devices
The diesel engine efficiency is highly related to the efficiency of the turbocharger. The turbocharger efficiency is
directly influenced by the degree of fouling of the compressor wheel, diffuser ring, nozzle ring and turbine wheel.
Regularly cleaning is essential during engine operation. The cleaning is not effective when the water cleaning is not
carried out on regularly schedule. See maintenance schedule section [2.4.1.]
The following factors may influence the degree of fouling e.g.:

Environment.

Fuel quality.

Load pattern.

Bad combustion.

1.5.6.3.Compressor side cleaning


The compressor should be cleaned by water injection during the engine operation. The cleaning process will have good
results as long as the deposit formation has not gone too far.
In this method of cleaning the water is not acting as a solvent but instead removes the deposits mechanically by the
impact of the water droplets. Use clean water without additives.
Daily cleaning of the compressor prevents or delays excessive build-up of dirt.In case a very thick hardened crust of
dirt is formed the compressor has to be dismantled for cleaning.
The cleaning system is provided with a water container (1). During cleaning the container is pressurised by the charge
air via line (2) by which water is forced to the compressor inlet via line (3).

Cleaning procedure
Water injection is to be executed when the engine is running at normal operating conditions and with a load >70% .
Record the charge air pressure, exhaust gas temperatures and the turbocharger speed to ascertain the efficiency of
cleaning.
1

Loosen grip screw (4) and remove container (1), see [fig. 1.5-12] .

Fill container with clean water.

Replace container and retighten grip screw (4).

By opening valve (5) charged air enters the container via pipe (2). The water content is via pipe (3) forced to
the compressor wheel inlet.

The complete water volume should be injected in 4 - 10 sec. The success of cleaning can be evaluated by
comparing engine exhaust gas temperatures before and after cleaning. If unsuccessfully, the cleaning process
should be repeated earliest after an interval of 10 minutes.

On completion of the cleaning process the engine should at least run another 5 minutes under load.

1.6.Control System

1.6-PAAE062665-00

1.6.1.General
The control system is constituted by a series of mechanical and pneumatic control devices, and it is also assisted by
and electronic automation system: Wrtsil Engine Control System - WECS 2000 (See Chapter [1.7 ] Automation
System).
The automation system is used for monitoring, and control of the engine and comprises:

measuring of the engine and turbocharger speed

engine safety system

starting of the engine

stopping of the engine

start blocking

automatic shut down of the engine

load reduction request

signal processing of all monitoring and alarm sensors

read out of important engine parameters on a graphical display

data communication with external systems (e.g. alarm and monitoring systems).

Control of the rotating speed of an engine is accomplished by varying the rate of fuel admission in the engine
cylinders. The duty to which the engine is applied usually determines the degree of accuracy required in engine speed
control. An actuator is used to control the engine speed and thus enables the engine to respond to changing load
requirements.
Note!
For maintenance background information, safety aspects, intervals, tolerances, inspections, and torque spanner
instructions, see chapter [2.4.]

1.6.2.Speed control system


1.6.2.1.Actuator
Many governing problems are the result of improper selection or improper treatment of oil used in the actuator. The
actuator should be serviced on a routine schedule according to the maintenance schedule of section [2.4.1.2.] .
When changing oil types flush the hydraulic system before oil change. Do not mix different types of oil. Most actuators
with sumps do not have filters, therefore, add only clean oil. If water enters change the oil immediately. Clean oil is of
most importance in hydraulic governing system.
Consult the sub-suppliers manual for oil quality and viscosity selection as well for acceptable operating temperatures.
Maintain the oil level in the actuator between the limits on the sight glass and do not overfill. During a refill keep the
oil level low and add more oil during running of the engine if needed. Oil in bad condition causes approximately 50%
of all governing troubles.
When during engine operation one of the following circumstances are observed the engine should be stopped, the oil
changed and the reason for the oil deterioration be examined:

The oil looks different from new.

The oil feels dirty or fumes bad.

There is water or dirt in the oil.

The viscosity of the oil has changed; increased or decreased.

Actuator parts are damaged or bad.

The actuator has run at a higher temperature than recommended for the oil being used.

Governing operating temperatures have changed.

The oil in operation has a wrong viscosity range.

For specific actuator information consult the sub-suppliers manual.

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

1.6.2.2.Booster
The booster activated by air the moment the engine is started, boosts the oil pressure in the actuator accumulator.
This makes fast response of the actuator power piston and fuel rack possible at initial start of the engine.
The booster supplies pressurized oil to mechanical-hydraulic actuators and electro-hydraulic actuators instantaneous
the starting air fills the starting air header on the engine. This instant oil pressure eliminates the time required for
gear pump in the actuator to build up enough oil pressure to move the linkage. This produces a faster start,
conserving starting air.
The booster is positioned lower than the actuator to prevent trapped air in booster and oil lines.
When the booster is inactive, the piston is held at one end of a cylinder by a spring. The cylinder is filled with oil
supplied from a line from the actuator's sump.
When the booster is activeted, engine starting air at the bottom side of the piston pressurises the oil which is forced
through ports and piping into the oil system of the actuator.
Check valves control the oil to flow in only one way.
This avoids the returning of booster oil during the starting process.
1.6.3.Fuel control mechanism
The movement of the power output shaft of the actuator is transferred to the common fuel control shaft (1) through a
link. The common fuel control shaft is supported to the engine block by bearings (2) and (3), see [fig. 1.6-1] .
Rotation of the common fuel control shaft is transferred through lever (4) to the HP fuel pump racks.
Torsion springs enable the common fuel control shaft to be moved to zero position in case one of the fuel racks will
jam.
Warning!
Special attention should be paid to the function of the fuel linkage mechanism as a defect to this mechanism may
result in a disastrous over speeding of the engine, unstable engine operation or an engine unable to take load.

1.6.4.Governing system maintenance and trouble shooting


Maintenance of the actuator is limited and should mainly exist of:

periodically renewal and level control of the lubrication oil

observation to proper working of the actuator

observation to proper connections of the linkage mechanism

Trouble shooting
Fluctuations in engine speed or load are usual ascribed to an improper working of the actuator however before
exchanging or doing any inspection of the actuator check the following:
1

Check engine load is not beyond maximum load.

Check if the fuel supply to the fuel pumps is at operating pressure and no vapour locks exist.

Check cylinder firing pressures and proper working of injectors.

Check adjustment of external setting devices of the actuator.

Check adjustment and linkage between actuator and fuel pumps.

Fuel control mechanism maintenance


6

The fuel control mechanism should be operated with minimal friction.


Bearings in linkages and on the common fuel control shaft require no lubrication and should not be in contact
with degreasing agents.
Pivoting point should be lubricated periodically with engine oil.

Keep all parts of the fuel control system clean and well preserved against rust.

Clearances of all connections should be minimal. Total backlash should not exceed 0.5 mm at the HP fuel
pump rack position.

1.7.Automation System

1.7-PAAE062665-00

1.7.1.General
All engines are equipped with the Wrtsil Engine Control System WECS 2000. WECS is used for monitoring and
control of the engine. It is developed for use on the diesel engines and designed for the harsh environment of the
engine.

Figure 1.7-1: WECS automation system


The figure shows the layout of WECS on the 16-cylinder V-engine. The exact structure of the system, i.e. the number
of Distributed Control Units (DCU) and Sensor Multiplexer Units (SMU), depends on the cylinder configuration. All
sensors on the engine are connected to the DCU's and the SMU's, while the signals to and from the external system
are connected to the Main Control Unit (MCU) and the Relay Module (RM). The engine parameters are shown on the
Local Display Unit (LDU).
The WECS comprises:

Measuring of the engine and turbocharger speed

Engine safety system

starting the engine

stopping the engine

start blocking

automatic shutdown of the engine

load reduction on request

Signal processing of all monitoring and alarm sensors

Readout of important engine parameters on a graphical display

Data communication with external systems (e.g. alarm and monitoring systems).

Warning!
The WECS will start-up, when the main power supply is available. However both power supply sources are required
for a fail-safe operation. Although the engine keeps running, when both power supplies fail (without safeties).
Switching on the main - and back-up power supply, both at the same time or in consecutive sequence, will initiate the
shut-down of the engine.

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

1.7.2.Functional description
1.7.2.1.General
In this chapter the functional tasks of the WECS are described. Speed measurement is separated from other
measuring systems because of its special character. Safety tasks include several functions like alarms, timings, start
and shutdown control and fuel limiting. These issues are described in section [1.7.2.3.]
1.7.2.2.Speed measuring
The engine speed is measured by two pickups, and the turbocharger measures the speed by one pick-up. One of the
engine speed pick-ups is connected to a DCU. The speed calculation is carried out in the DCU software. The DCU to
where the pick-up is connected will initiate a stop of the engine in case of overspeed. The second engine speed pick-up
is connected to the Relay Module, which is located in the cabinet of the engine. The module initiates a shutdown of the
engine in case the overspeed isn't detected by the first pick-up. The shutdown due to low lubricating oil pressure
initiated by the Relay Module (backup) is suppressed by the second pick-up. The turbocharger speed pick-up is
connected to a DCU or an SMU, depending on the structure of WECS. The speed calculation of the turbocharger is
carried out in the DCU software.
1.7.2.3.Safety system
The safety system is implemented in the software of the WECS. In addition, there are some redundant safety functions
in a hardwired system (Relay Module). The safety system can be split up in five major parts; starting, stopping, start
blocking, shutdown and load reduction.
1.7.2.3.1.Starting
There are some important properties to be noticed in the start system of the WECS:

Start conditions are all configurable so they may vary depending on the installation,

The engine won't start, if either local or remote reset button isn't pressed after shutdown.

1.7.2.3.2.Stopping
There are some important properties to be noticed in the stop system of the WECS if the stop override signal is
included.

The emergency stop signal isn't blocked by the stop override signal

The stop override signal is connected via the Relay Module to the MCU.

1.7.2.3.3.Start blockings
A start blocking is caused usually by the following conditions:

low pre-lubricating oil level at turbo charger

turning gear engaged

stop lever in stop position

local/remote switch in local position (blocks the remote start)

local/remote switch in remote position (blocks the local start)

external start blocking input

shutdown condition active.

On "Modbus list document" are listed the installation specific condition for start blocking.
If start blocking is active, it is impossible to perform a start of the engine. On the Modbus a signal is given for each
start blocking being active.
1.7.2.3.4.Shutdowns
An engine shut down is carried out in the same way as a normal stop, i.e. by energizing the solenoid valve. The
sensors used for shutdown are of analogue type, and the shut down levels are defined in the WECS software.
The shutdown is latching, and a shutdown reset has to be given before it is possible to re-start. Naturally, before this,
the reason of the shut down must be investigated. The reason of any shutdown will be indicated on the Modbus
communication link to the external systems.

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

On "Modbus list document" are listed the installation specific condition and limits for shutdowns .
Shutdown backup system
Some shutdown functions of the WECS are backed up in the Relay Module, which is an independent hardwired system.
These functions are:

low lubricating oil pressure

overspeed trip

optional shutdown switch.

Also the emergency stop button is connected to the Relay Module.


A dedicated pressure switch initiates the lubricating oil pressure shut down. The shutdown is suppressed at low engine
speed and at stand-still.
Backup Lubrication Oil shutdown is active in 10 seconds after starting the engine.
Activation is by means of 2 switches, PSZ201.1 and PSZ201.2.
PSZ201.2, having a low pressure standard setting of 1,3 Bar, is active in the entire speed range.
PSZ201.1, having a high pressure standard setting of 2,3 Bar, is only active in the range of speed above 600 rpm.
The Relay Module is using a separate speed sensor (proximity switch) for generating an overspeed trip. The trip level
is set slightly higher than the level in the WECS configuration, and the function is latching.
1.7.2.3.5.Load reduction
If load reduction set points are defined in WECS they are specified in the installation specific documentation. When a
setpoint is exceeded a load reduction request will be activated to the external system. The load reduction is always
handled by the external control system or manually by the operator.
Request for load reduction with automatic shutdown after 3 minutes unless fuel rack position is reduced below 15 mm.
1.7.2.4.Monitoring and alarm sensors
The following standard set of sensors for monitoring, alarm and safety are mounted on the engine.

1.7.3.Data acquisition
In the WECS the data acquisition is distributed. This means that sensors are connected to Distribution Units (SMU's or
DCU's) that are located close to groups of sensors. Only start and stop related switches are connected to the MCU.
Backup sensors are connected to the Relay Module, see [fig. 1.7-2] .
The distributed data acquisition has many advantages compared to a centralized system:

less cabling,

noise immunity because of digital comunication,

flexibility,

easy to customize for various engine types.

In the WECS measured values are transferred in analog mode only from the sensor to the DCU/SMU. After that the
values are in digital mode. Various types of communication standards and protocols are used, see [fig. 1.7-2] .

Figure 1.7-2: Sensor connection in the WECS


The data handling procedure in the WECS is shown in fig 1.7 - 3 . The sensor value is normally measured by the I/O
section of the SMU Board. Filtering, linearization and error check operations are made to the data and then it is
transferred to a DCU Board.
The DCU software verifies the validity of the measured data and checks the value against alarm, power reduction and
shutdown limits. After these operations the data is saved to the database of the DCU. Then the data is immediately
transferred via CAN to the MCU. The data receiving software in the MCU distributes the data to the Modbus and to the
database of the MCU. The data saved to the database of the DCU or the MCU can be used by several application
modules (like Math, LDU, etc.). These modules read values from the database and , in some cases, save produced
values to the database. Data can also be transferred from the MCU database to the Modbus.

Figure 1.7-3: Data handling procedure


DCU/SMU
In the WECS sensors are normally connected to DCU/SMU's. The DCU includes the same sensor connections as the
SMU, but an additional PCB for CAN communication and data processing. Only two types of Distribution Units are
needed because their measuring channels are multiusage type. Various types of sensors can be connected to these
channels:

4-20 mA current loop,

current transducer,

voltage transducer,

Pt-100,

thermocouples of type J , K, S and T,

resistant,

potentiometer,

switch (max. 2 way).

Every measuring channel has an option to supply voltage for the sensor connected to it. Eight channels (0-7) supply
either 12 V DC or 15 V DC and two channels (8-9) supply 5 V DC.
There are also eight (8) digital inputs in the DCU/SMU's. Selectors are recommended to be connected to these inputs.
For the speed measuring there are two (2) frequency inputs in the DCU/SMU.
1.7.4.WEnCoM-functions
1.7.4.1.Background
The original WEnCoM was developed by Wrtsil Diesel in the early 80's and comprised a microprocessor based
temperature measuring system designed for condition monitoring of diesel engines. The temperatures of the cylinder
liners, the main bearings and the exhaust gas valves were measured with thermocouples, presented on a CRT-screen
or printer as tables or charts and stored in a separate memory cassette. The system also performed certain
mathematical operations of the data. When the alarm levels were reached, the system generated alarms or shutdown
signals for the engine.
Today WEnCoM is divided into two parts: the safety functions included in the WECS and the trend diagrams
implemented in the external system. The external system in this meaning is any control, alarm or monitoring system
connected to the WECS. The temperature measuring of the cylinder liners, main bearings and the exhaust gas valves,
the checking against alarm, power reduction and shutdown levels and the needed mathematical operations are all
included in the WECS.
The presentations of all measured and calculated data should be implemented, according to the recommendations, in
the external system connected to the MCU. Depending on engine type and size the amount of sensors included for the
WEnCoM-functions may vary.
1.7.4.2.Main bearings
The temperature of the main bearing is monitored with the sensor in direct contact with the bearing shell, see
[fig. 1.7-4] . Alarm, power reduction or shutdown is generated if the value exceeds specified limits. The updating
frequency is 1 Hz.

Figure 1.7-4: Temperature sensors of the main bearing


Note!
It is recommended to have trend diagrams of the main bearing temperatures in the external system.
1.7.4.3.Exhaust gas valves
Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:32

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

The condition of the exhaust gas valve is monitored with a sensor measuring the exhaust gas temperature. A burned
spot on the valve disc will, in time, result in an increasing temperature fluctuation because of the rotation of the
valves. A malfunctioning valve can be discovered by analysing the cyclic variations in exhaust gas temperatures.
1.7.5.Instrumentation
The local control instrumentation is placed on the WECS cabinet and consists of:

Local start button

Local stop button

Local reset button / shutdown indication

Local / remote start mode selector

Local Display Unit

Backup engine speed indication

Backup lubrication oil pressure indication

Backup HT cooling water temperature indication

1.7.5.1.Local Display Unit


The Local Display Unit (LDU) replaces the traditional pressure gauge panel, thermometers and other instruments. It is
connected to the MCU by a local Modbus connection, from which it gets the necessary data to display.

1.7.5.2.Backup instruments
In addition to the LDU there are three backup instruments that are independent from the rest of the system. The three
instruments are: engine speed, HT cooling water temperature and lubricating oil pressure.
1.7.5.3.Controls
The control functions local/remote, start, stop and shutdown reset are included in the control panel. The functions and
layout of the control panel may vary depending on engine type.
Local/Remote
There are two modes, local and remote. In local mode the start can be executed only locally from the control panel not
from the control room. The remote mode differs between marine and power plant applications.
Start
The start button is used to start the engine locally.
Stop
The stop button is used to stop the engine locally.
Shutdown reset
After an automatic shutdown the control system is to be resetted before the engine can be started again. This is due
to safety requirements. A blue light in the reset button indicates an automatic shutdown. After reset the light turns off.
1.7.6.Functional testing
In this section there are described the procedures for testing of overspeed trip and pressure sensors.
1.7.6.1.Testing of overspeed trip
There are two sensors measuring the engine speed. One sensor (ST173) is connected to a DCU/SMU and the other
sensor (ST174) is connected to the Relay Module. Overspeed is detected by both sensors.
The overspeed limit set in the DCU/SMU is lower than the overspeed limit set in the Relay Module. The limit of
overspeed in the DCU/SMU is 15 % above the engine nominal speed. The limit of overspeed in the Relay Module is
18% above the engine nominal speed.
The overspeed trip can be tested by actually running the engine at overspeed if that is possible. Otherwise the testing
has to be done by simulating the engine speed with a signal generator.
The overspeed trip should stop the engine when the overspeed limit is exceeded.
The overspeed trip on the Relay Module is a backup of the normal overspeed trip.
Warning!
If the WECS does not receive both signals from the speed sensors ST173 and ST174 the safety and alarm system is
NOT fully activated. Running of the engine, however, is still possible but this could lead to serious engine damage.
The absents of both signals can be seen during engine start-up. On the "Main page" of the WECS-screen, first the
signal "Start fail or rpm missing" and after a while "Start blocked" appears. An alarm "SS174 Engine speed" will be
activated when one ore both signals fail.

1.7.6.1.1.Testing of overspeed trip by running the engine

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

The overspeed trip can be tested by running the engine at overspeed. The speed of the engine is not allowed to be
increased more than 60 rpm over the over speedlimit.
1

Increase the engine speed

Check at what speed the overspeed is detected

The limit of overspeed will be first exceeded in the DCU/SMU.


When testing the overspeed trip of the Relay Module the speed sensor of the DCU/SMU (ST173) has to be
disconnected.
Note!
Do not forget to connect the speed sensor after testing!
1.7.6.1.2.Testing of overspeed trip by using a signal generator
1

Connect the signal generator to both speed sensors one at a time. The signal generator is connected to the
pins signal and gnd of the speed sensor. See fig 1.7 - 24 for connections. The overspeed stop should be
detected when the overspeed limit is exceeded.
The signal for the test should be a wave with amplitude minimum 12 V.

Increase the frequency of the input signal.

Check at what frequency the overspeed is detected.

The speed is detected from the camshaft gear. The rotation speed of the camshaft gear is half of the engine rotation
speed. The frequency corresponding to the overspeed can be easily calculated when the teeth number of the camshaft
gear is known.
Note!
The Relay module is delivered with the "Record Relay Module Tuning document" where are indicated all the test
frequecies and the Relay Module's set points.
The following formula gives the frequency detected by the sensor corresponding to engine speed:

The frequency corresponding to the engine speed is shown in the following tables with engine nominal speed of 900
rpm and 1000 rpm accordingly and a camshaft gear with 46 teeth.

1.7.6.1.3.Testing of pressure switches (back-up)


The testing of pressure sensors can be done with a pressure calibration device.

Figure 1.7-7: Testing of pressure switches


In figure 1.7 - 7 there is a pressure switch with a shut-off valve and a test pressure connection. The pressure switch is
disconnected from the pressure with the shut-off valve. The pressure calibration device is then connected to the plug
for test pressure. A requested pressure is set with the help of the calibration device.
Note!
Do not forget to open the shut-off valve after testing!

The SMU is a microprocessor based measuring unit, designed for continuous operation in harsh environmental
conditions. It acts as an interface between sensors and a DCU. The SMU can measure both analog and digital sensors.
It stores data of one measurement at a time to its SRAM memory. The data is transmitted from the memory to the
host processor by a separate command. The SMU also performs linearization of temperature sensors and error
checkups. The SMU is connected to the host processor through one serial line channel. This channel is a galvanically
isolated RS-485 half-duplex connection and each SMU has its own address to which it responds.
A DCU comprises an SMU Board and a DCU Board on the lid of the enclosure. These boards are connected to each
other with a flat cable. In addition to the features of the SMU the DCU Board adds a more power full microprocessor,
flash memories, a PC Card socket and a CAN controller.
1.7.7.3.1.SMU board
The SMU Board is rather flexible in application in a variety of possible configurations. Various types of sensors can be
connected to it:

4-20 mA current loop

current transducer

voltage transducer

Pt-100

thermocouples of type J, K, S and T

resistant

potentiometer

switch (max. 2 way)

Figure 1.7-20: SMU Board layout


The SMU Board includes an 8-bit Intel 80C51FC CPU running with clock frequency 14.7 MHz. The SMU Board also has
a memory circuit for storing operation variables and system parameters. The AD conversion is made with a 16-bit
sigma/delta A/D converter with digital filter and gains.
The SMU Board converts all the required operating voltages for itself from the 24 V level. The switching power supply
of SMU is isolated. The SMU Board floats from other electronics of the WECS because of isolated power supply.

1.7.7.3.2.DCU Board
The DCU is a combination of two processor-based boards. The 16- bit processor of the DCU Board acts as a host for
the SMU and handles all of the outside communications. There are three communication channels available in the unit
besides of the SMU serial channel, which is no more visible to the user. The SMU serial channel is in this installation
directly handled by the DCU processor via an optocoupler.

Figure 1.7-22: DCU layout


The serial channels from the DCU are CAN, 2-wire RS-485 and RS- 232C communications links. Two internal CPU
serial channels are used for serial communications through the 2-wire RS-485 and the internal SMU Board. In addition
there is one PC Card type II slot for SRAM and FLASH memory cards.
The DCU Board converts all the required operating voltages (+5 V, +12 V) for it self from the floating 7 V level, which
is fed from the SMU's isolated switching power supply. This makes the whole DCU board floats from the SMU
electronics.

Figure 1.7-23: DCU Board block diagram


Operationally the DCU board provides a distributed database over the CAN-bus. A PC Card is used to transfer new
application definitions from the associated configuration tool to the DCU system. These parameter files, when properly
transferred, are stored into the DCU FLASH-memories, where they stay regardless of powering conditions.

1.7.7.4.Sensors
1.7.7.4.1.Speed sensors
Engine speed sensor
The rotation speed of the engine is measured with two touch free inductive PNP-type proximity switches. The sensor is
supplied with a 10 - 30 V DC supply voltage (normally 15 V DC in the WECS). The third pin of the sensor is the speed
proportional pulse train output. The voltage level of pulse output varies between two fixed levels; 0 V DC and +15 V
DC (supply voltage).
The electronics of the sensor is resin-molded into a tubular housing of nickel-plated brass with external thread of M18
x 1.5 mm. The cable is connected by means of a four-pole Euchner BS4 connector.
To install the sensor turn the engine until the top of a cog is visual in the sensor mountinghole. Screw carefully the
sensor completely in by hand. Unscrew it approximately 1.5 revolutions for a sensing distance of 2.0 - 2.5 mm, and
tighten the counter nut well with a spanner.

Figure 1.7-24: Engine speed sensors


ABB TPS turbocharger speed sensor
The turbocharger speed sensor is a magnetic type and it does not require any supply voltage. The sensor is mounted
eccentrically in the turbocharger's bearing space cover. In a lubricating wheel on the shaft there are six embedded
magnets, which generate a pulse in the sensor when passing the sensing head. The sinusoidal signal from the sensor
is thus proportional to the rotation speed of the charger, and connected to the WECS.
The metal housing of the sensor is M12 x 1.25 mm. The cable is connected by means of a four-pole connector.
To install the sensor, screw carefully the sensor completely in by hand. Do not forget to install the gasket as well.
Tighten the sensor well with a spanner, with a tightening torque of 15 Nm.

1.7.7.5.Solenoid valves
The solenoid valves used on the engines are 3-way type valves of make E. Seitz. They can, depending on the
application, either be normally open or normally closed. The nominal operation voltage is 24 V DC, and the solenoids
have a voltage tolerance of -15 % to +10 %. The coil has a power rating of 11 W and it has (built-in) voltage
suppression and reverse polarity protection diodes.
1.7.7.6.Relay Module
The Relay Module is a device that executes orders from the MCU by means of activating solenoids etc. It also serves
as a safety backup system when the main safety system doesn't work properly or if the rest of the system is out of
operation. Most of the hardwired signals as the emergency switch etc. are connected to the Relay Module. The Relay
Module also provides power supply for the whole system.
Unlike the other units of the WECS the Relay Module has no processor or software. Consequently the Relay Module is a
totally hardware driven unit. The Relay Module consists of the following functional blocks:

speed measuring block (backup)

lube oil shut down block (backup)

optional shutdown block (backup)

MCU stop/shutdown block

hardwired stop block

overspeed shutdown block (backup)

1.7.8.Software
1.7.8.1.VRX Operating system shell
VRX (Vaisala Real-time Executive) is a high level shell for accessing the services of the underlying operating system. It
also provides a RAM-based real-time database.
The main goal of VRX is to make application programs independent of the operating system. VRX provides a simple
high level interface for the programmer. The applications are usually involved in producing and consuming data. Data
is collected, processed and distributed further. This is the reason why VRX is very data oriented.
One of the VRX features is task insulation. The tasks do not communicate with each other directly. All the
communication is accomplished through VRX. The tasks are tied to each other with the data items of the database.
The application modules are tasks running under the VRX. Each of them has a specific task to perform and some of
them can be configured. There is a configuration file for each of the configurable application tasks. These files a re
compiled into binary form and loaded into the file system of the target unit (MCU or one of the DCU's).

1.7.9.Maintenance of electrical contacts
To prolong the lifetime of electrical contact surfaces and to provide proper electrical connection under all conditions
and to maintain a high availability of the WECS system.
The maintenance is carried out by applying contact lubricats to electrical contact surfaces. for best result the contact
surface should be cleaned with aereosol electrical contact cleaner before applying the lubricant.
Contact lubricants are specially formulated greases and oils that reduce friction and enhance the electrical
performance of current carrying metal interfaces in switches and connectors. They also exhibit a neutral pH thereby
avoiding surface corrosion.

2.3.Operation

2.3-PAAE062665-00

2.3.1.General
Before an operator takes an engine a first time in operation he should be acquainted with the location and function of
the components of the installation.
It is desirable, in case of new installations or those which have been out of service for some time, before starting, that
the operator tests all fuel, lubricating oil, water and air lines, to see they are tight and functional.
Air should be purged from liquid systems through vents at the highest point while filling or circulating the liquid.
The engine should be cranked a few revolutions to ensure there are no restrictions. After all necessary preparations
have been made prior to starting, the engine should run at idle speed recommended in the main data, see chapter
[1.0.] The engine speed should be increased gradually while observing pressures and temperatures to make sure all
parts are working properly.
Wrtsil Corporation issues instructions for each engine and such instructions are the result of wide experience. To
secure the utmost in reliability and efficiency these instructions should be read, understood, and followed.
All well-managed installations maintain engine log sheets. The logs should have provision for recording the starting
and stopping time of each engine, the loads, pressures and temperatures. These logs are usually based on a 24-hours
operating period and provide space for each of the shift engineers. Well maintained logs will provide an invaluable
record of the performance of the engines and all maintenance made or needed.
2.3.1.1.Preheating
In a stand-by preheated mode the engine is ready to accept load instantly.
Stand-by preheated mode of the engine means:

Fuel must be of the correct viscosity in the internal engine system.

HT cooling water must be preheated as near as possible to the operating temperature or at least to a temperature
of minimum 60 C by means of an external preheating system. Preheating water flow shall be minimum 4% of
nominal water flow.

Lubricating oil temperature minimum 40 C.

2.3.1.2.Preparations before the start


Before a trial run and after maintenance/repairs or a prolonged stop, the engine and system should be thoroughly
inspected and prepared for operation.
Before an engine is started, pay attention to:

Levels in tanks.

Systems vented.

Check correct valve positions in supply and discharge on the engine.

Observe the system diagrams.

Required coolers are in service.

Leaking pipes.

Safety systems tested and operational.

Check crankcase for possible water leakages from liner walls.

Cooling water has preheated the engine.

Fuel is circulating at the required pressure and viscosity.

The prelubricating to the engine is correct.

Filters on differential pressures.

Starting air vessels are on pressure and drained from water and oil.

Gauges for normal readings.

All covers are closed and locked.

Prohibiting tags removed.

Start blocking is released.

Engine and engine shafting clear for rotating.

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

Engine room is free of obstructions.

Bar engine two revolutions with indicator cocks open.

Note!
Keep engine clear during start-up and operation.
2.3.1.3.Local start
1

Depending on the system, start the prelubricating oil system to obtain the start blocking release. If an
external full flow lubricating oil pump is installed adjust the pressure at nominal. See section [1.0.4.]

Warning!
In case a stand-by pump is used for prelubrication prevent continuous operating to avoid excessive fouling of the
turbocharger. See also sub-suppliers manual of the turbocharger.

Adjust actuator at idle speed, see sub-suppliers manual.

Follow the instructions in section

Check if the automatic alarm and stop devices are in service.

Switch the engine to local control.

Figure 2.3-1: Local control panel


6

Push the start button (1) at the local control panel, see [fig. 2.3-1] . The compressed air starter motor will
engage and the crankshaft will rotate. The actuator displaces the racks of the HP fuel pumps.
The compressed air starter motor will automatically disengage after engine reaches 100 rpm or after 10 sec.

During the start procedure a fuel limiter, integrated in the speed control unit, limits the fuel rack movement
to avoid excessive fuel injection and unnecessary smoke. The limiter is automatically released after the engine
reaches idle speed.

Direct after engine start check:


pressures of the engine systems

levels in tanks and sumps remain normal

combustion in all cylinders to be indicated by a rise in exhaust gas temperature

2.3.1.4.Remote or automatic start


A remote or automatic start of an engine requires the same preparations as for a normal (local) start with the
exception the engine was not in maintenance for any reason.
To start the engine remotely the engine should first have been started locally under full supervision of the operator.
After performing the start, a successfully run, and the engine left in a stand by position, it is permitted to switch the
engine controls from local to remote.
After switching to remote or automatic engine control, every person in the engine room has to be aware of an engine
start without notice.
2.3.1.5.Start after a normal stop
If, after a normal engine stop, the engine has to run again within a few hours the following should be observed:

The engine is left in the stand-by preheated mode.


See section [2.3.1.1.]

Pressures, flows and fuel viscosity remain at values as required for a local start.

Fuel and lubricating oil separators are kept in operation.

No maintenance is carried out.

All covers are closed and locked.

The turning gear is not engaged.

If the engine stop takes 8 hours ore more, the engine should be cranked 2 revolutions with open indicator cocks
before starting to be sure there is no liquid on top of the pistons.

2.3.1.6.Start after overhaul


In general, overhaul means the engine is out of service for some purpose. The more extensive the overhaul, the more
carefully the operator has to be during the start-up procedure.
General
1

After any kind of maintenance the operator should be fully informed regarding the results of the maintenance
to be able to operate the engine accordingly.

Full attention should be paid to the cleaning of pipe systems between filters and engine.

Depending on the kind of maintenance, safety devices should be tested on setting and function.

Activate stop solenoid with governor power shaft at maximum and stop lever in operating position and check
all HP fuel pump racks move to zero at once.

Prelubricate the engine. Check where possible, if all points which have to be lubricated receive oil.

Test run
After maintenance and/or repair work on engine parts run the engine at idling speed.
Note!
If anything is suspected during the test run procedure, stop the engine immediately.

Start the engine according to the local start procedures as mentioned in section [2.3.1.3.] .

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

Immediately after starting up special-check for:

Leakage of water, fuel, lubricating oil or air. Especially, observe fuel lines, HP fuel pumps and injectors.

Excessive quantities of the leak oil pipes.

Pressures.

Temperatures.

Strange sounds.

Fluid levels.
8

After 5 minutes test run stop the engine.

Warning!
Removing of the crank case covers immediately after engine stop is only allowed after maximal 5 minutest test
running.
In all other cases allow the engine to cool down 10 minutes.

9
10

Open crank case covers at operating side.


Check main and connecting rod bearing temperature differences, in particular bearings that have been in
maintenance.
Check if the connecting rod big end moves easily in axial direction.

11

Inspect during cranking liners and pistons for normal pattern from the crankcase side.

12

Check bottom part of cylinder liners for water leakage.

Operating check
If the 5 minutes test run is ok, close and lock all covers.
Start the engine and pay attention to the following points:
13

Check readings and alarms of safety and alarm system.

14

Check pressure and temperature gauges.

15

Check automatic alarm and stop devices.

16

Check pressure drop over fuel filter and lubricating oil filter.

17

Check oil level in the oil sump/oil tank. Make some simple quality checks of the oil.

18

Check venting of engine cooling water systems.

19

Check quantity of fuel leak.

20

Check condensate drain points in charge air receiver on presence of water.

21

Check cooling water quality.

22

Check exhaust gas temperatures.

23

Listen for strange sounds.

24

Check maximum cylinder pressures, see section

2.3.1.7.Emergency start
In case of an emergency the engine can be started by means of the emergency start push button (1) on the start
solenoid valve (2). The engine will start by-passing all the safety devices. To operate the emergency start push button
first turn the protecting plate (3) away. The position of the start solenoid valve (2) is shown in [fig. 2.3-2] .
Keep the emergency start button activated until the engine fires.
Take notice that the appropriate switches of the speed control unit and the stop lever are in the "RUN" position.
Monitor the local speed and pressure instruments.
Warning!
Be aware that all safety devices are overruled if the engine is started by using the emergency start push button.

Figure 2.3-2: Start solenoid valve


2.3.2.Operation
Normal operation and supervision includes all activities to assure a smooth and trouble free operation of the complete
installation against the lowest costs as well as to guarantee the safety of operators working at that plant.
Golden rule
Satisfactorily operation of a diesel engine depends mainly on the quality of the systems supporting the engine.

Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:33

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

To guarantee a trouble free and smooth plant operation one should take the following remarks into account:
There is no automatic supervision or control arrangement that replaces an experienced engineer
observations.

It is not only a matter of FEEL, LOOK and LISTEN, but also a correct interpretation of signals from monitoring
devices.
Do not jumper safety devices in case of malfunction but make the safety equipment reliable. In case the
malfunction can not locally be solved contact Wrtsil Corporation, service department.
2

Keep the engine installation in operation in a way it is designed.

The operator has to know what normally can be expected of a plant in operation and ought to have admission
to all relevant technical data being part of the installation such as:

testbed- and commissioning protocols

manual, parts catalogue and sub-suppliers manuals

engine log book for each engine etc.


The operator must be convinced that the instrument readings are correct.

The indicated process values must be according to operating data.


The operator should, by consequent keeping the engine and/or

installation logs, be in time aware of all changes in engine and installation processes and be able to take
necessary corrective actions.
Operators involved should have more than marginal

knowledge of on-going processes in engine and installation.


The basic acknowledge to be gained by intensive basic studies, by long term practical experiences on comparable
installations and studies of relevant manuals available.

Safety of operators should, during their stay at the installation, be guarantied in an optimum way.

Only under safe working conditions of operators a safe running situation of the installation can be realised. Unsafe
locations in general will be avoided.

Safety of operators includes also the use of adequate clothes and shoes complemented with helmeted, glasses,
gloves and ear protectors.

Furthermore, safety of operators depends largely on observing of the rules.


8

Sufficient means and "tools" have to be available for optimum working conditions of the operator and for
uninterrupted operation of engine and installation.

Run engine and installation in a safe way.


This can be realised when one keeps the following in mind:

The installation is assembled and in operation according to manufactures prescriptions.

Specified genuine parts have been used.

The operator is well informed about the systems and their safeties.

Reliable working of all safety systems are approved periodically.

10

Loading :
The way of increasing the output of the engine depends largely on the engine preheating time and load level.
See also section [2.3.2.2.]

11

Do not exceed the restrictions for low load and idling.

Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:33

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

See section [2.3.2.1.2.]


Note!
Unnecessary idling should be avoided as much as possible.

12

Check condensate drain points in charge air cooler and charge air ducting are open and free of condensate.

13

Never try to adjust exhaust gas temperatures all to the same level by readjusting rack positions of HP fuel
pumps.

Note!
The maximum deviation between fuel rack positions is 0.5 mm.
2.3.2.1.Restrictions
2.3.2.1.1.Restrictions for operation at excessive suction air temperature
To load an engine in case of excessive ambient conditions consider that derating of the engine may be required, see
section [1.0.3.]
For suction air temperature < -5 C heating of the suction air and / or special requirements may be required.
2.3.2.1.2.Restrictions for low load and idling
During idling and low load operation, and depending on the fuel quality and combustion, more soot and sludge will be
formed than during higher loads. These combustion products will contaminate the internals of the engine. As a result
lubricating oil filters and separator will be higher loaded during such periods. As well as sticking of piston rings and
valve stems may occur after a stop. Furthermore, combustion products, not sufficiently neutralised by the lubricating
oil, may cause corrosion. By reloading of the engine the concentration of all kind of combustion products reduces. This
is specially important if the engine is to be stopped.
Restrictions for idling:
(declutched main engine, unloaded generator):

Maximum 15 minutes and recommended minimum 10 minutes if the engine is to be stopped after idling.

Maximum 6 hours if the engine is to be loaded after idling.

Note!
Unnecessary idling should be avoided as much as possible.
Restrictions for low load operation:
Operation between 5...20% load:

Maximum 100 hours continuous low load operation.

After every 100 hours low load operation and before stopping, the engine must be loaded at least till 70% load
during 1 hour.

2.3.2.1.3.Restrictions for a planned stop


For a planned stop decrease the engine load with 20% every minute.
2.3.2.2.Loading performance
The load steps must be controlled to deliver sufficient air for a complete combustion in the cylinders. Turbocharged
engines should be loaded successively due to the air deficit, which is apparent, until the turbocharger has reached the
required speed. The engine loading should preferably be controlled by a load/speed increase program included in the
control system.
Note!

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

Maximum loading speed should only be used when absolutely necessary.


2.3.2.2.1.Gradual load increase
The limiting curves for loading of the engine at certain engine conditions in [%] as a function of the time [s] are shown
in [fig. 2.3-3] .
Load the engine as gradually as possible.
Note!
Fast loading creates larger thermal load strain and reduces life time of the engine components considerably.

Figure 2.3-3: Gradual load increase


2.3.2.2.2.Sudden load increase
A limiting curve for load increase as a function of engine load in % are shown in [fig. 2.3-4] . The maximum sudden
power increase fulfils requirements of ISO 8528-5.

2.3.2.3.Maintenance points during operations


The following points give some additional information about maintenance points mentioned in the maintenance
schedule.
Note!
For the complete maintenance schedule see section [2.4.1.2.]
Observe all temperature and pressure readings.

To keep a close check on engine in operation it is advised to keep a log book. For an engine log sheet example
see section [2.3.2.3.1.] .
Check daily the good working of temperature and pressure sensors.

Defective instruments should be replaced as soon as possible.


3

Check engine circulating water venting system is working.

Fluid levels
Checks should include the following:
- lubricating oil level
- level of fresh cooling water system(s)

- level of daily service fuel tank.


Leaks

During operation check following for leaks:

fuel system

lubricating oil system

cooling water system

charge air system (condensate drain holes must be open) and exhaust gas system

start, stop and pneumatic control system.


6

Draining
The daily fuel service tank must regularly be drained at the lowest points for water and sludge. If water or
sludge of any importance appears, check origin. Air vessels and water separators in air lines should be regularly
drained.

Keep the HP fuel pump racks clean (free from sticky components), check rack linkage connections on
movability and excessive clearances.

Circulate the lubricating oil on a stopped engine once a week. This reduces the risk of CORROSION of engine
parts.

Check cylinder firing pressures. At the same time record engine load, fuel rack position, turbine speed,
charge air pressure and inlet air temperature. All offer information about the engine performance.

10

Record lube oil analysis and lube oil service time.

11

Record the cleaning intervals of engine mounted centrifugal lubricating oil filters.

12

Record the cleaning intervals of lubricating oil filter candles.

2.3.2.4.Measurement of cylinder pressure
General
The maximum cylinder pressure is measured with a peak pressure meter connected to the indicator cock on top of the
cylinder head.
The obtained pressure can only be used for comparison with pressures of other cylinders of the engine.
Depending on type of fuel, engine load and rpm, the pressure measured at the indicator cock differs from the
maximum pressure in the cylinder and can be 5-15 bar higher.
Note!
Cylinder pressure measurement at the indicator cock is useful for individually comparison, however, the value
measured is not representative for the real pressure in the combustion space.
More sophisticated instruments can present the cylinder pressure / crank angle diagram showing the start of
combustion and angle of maximum pressure. However, the mean indicated pressure and heat release, as calculated
with these data, does in no way represent the engine performance as measured at the indicator cock.
The obtained data should not be used for this purpose as:

The cylinder pressure indicator is placed at the end of a small bore on top of the cylinder head. In this bore the
pressure is developing steeper giving pressure fluctuations and higher maximum values than in the cylinder space.

Due to length of the indicator channel the pressure pulse is delayed giving a wrong time monitoring.

Note!
It is not permitted to switch off fuel injection of a cylinder to measure compression pressure.
Checking cylinder firing pressure
Check cylinder firing pressures. At the same time record engine load, fuel rack position, turbine speed, charge air
pressure and inlet air temperature. All offer information about the engine performance.
Note!

Recording cylinder combustion pressures without simultaneously recording engine load is practically worthless.
2.3.2.5.Running-in
The running-in procedure is mainly intended for piston rings and liners. For a good running-in it is important to vary
the load. Ring grooves in the piston have different tilting angles at each load and consequently piston rings have
different contact lines to the cylinder liner walls. Running-in may be performed either on distillate or heavy fuel, using
the lubricating oil specified for the fuel. (Keep BN value in mind).
1

Carry out the start after overhaul procedure (except the operating check), see section [2.3.1.6.] .

Start the running-in procedure.

a = gradual load increase 0,5 hr. minimum

b = constant load period 0,75 hr. to 1 hr

c = recovery period 0,2 hr. to 0,25 hr

1..8 = load / rpm steps to be followed.

Figure 2.3-5: Running-in diagram

Record data on engine log sheet after 1/2 an hour of each load step. Use the test report as a reference.
Never try to adjust the cylinder exhaust gas temperatures by readjusting fuel rack position.

After completion the engine is ready for operation.

2.3.2.6.Operating problems

2.3.2.7.Emergency operation
2.3.2.7.1.Operation with defective air cooler(s)
Defective cooling tubes of an air cooler permit cooling water entering the cylinders. Water in the charge air receiver
can be indicated by the condensate drain points. If water or water mist escapes the condensate drain point, check
whether it is cooling water or condensate. If it is condensate, increase the charge air temperature a few degrees (see
section [1.0.4.] ). If it is cooling water, stop the engine as soon as possible and plug off the leaking tube. If cooler
leakage cannot be remedied by tube plugging exchange cooler for a spare. Leaking cooling water is indicated by the
water level in expansion tank.
2.3.2.7.2.Operation with defective turbocharger
A defective turbocharger should be treated in accordance with instructions given in the turbocharger instruction book.
Permissible engine output with blocked turbocharger is approx. 20% load. Engine output must, however, be limited
not to exceed the normal full load exhaust temperatures. Maximum permissible exhaust gas temperature after the
cylinder at continuous operation with blocked turbocharger is 500C.
2.3.2.7.3.Operation with one cylinder misfiring
A torsional vibration analysis is made for each installation and all possible modes of operation. This is done for as well
normal conditions as for so called misfire conditions.
With misfire conditions we mean: no combustion in one cylinder, only compression and expansion. This can occur due
to for instance a defect HP fuel pump. In case there is also no compression and expansion, Wrtsil Corporation has to
be consulted.
Eventual restrictions, from point of view of torsional vibration behaviour, mentioned in a torsional vibration analysis
report, have to be obeyed. Otherwise, especially in emergency operation -one cylinder unit out of operation- critical
components as torsional vibration damper, crankshaft, torsional elastic coupling, gearwheel, propeller shaft etcetera,
are subjected to not allowable torsional vibration loads.
Note!
Engine operation, with one cylinder misfiring, is only allowed in case restrictions, mentioned in a report concerning
torsional vibration behaviour of this particular installation, are observed!

2.3.3.Engine stop
The engine can always be stopped: remotely, locally or manually.
The local or remote stop involves the following devices:

Stop cylinders on fuel pumps.

Stop signal to actuator controller.

Stop solenoid in actuator (if applicable).

2.4.Maintenance

2.4-PAAE062665-00

2.4.1.Maintenance Schedule
This section describes when and which inspection and maintenance actions have to be carried out. In case you need
more information, please contact the Service department of Wrtsil Corporation.
The maintenance necessary for the engine depends primarily on the operating conditions. The periods stated in this
schedule are guidance values only and must not be exceeded during the guarantee period. See also the sub-suppliers
manuals for additional information.
2.4.1.1.Safety aspects and rules for inspection and maintenance
General
1

When the engine is in overhaul, make sure the remote or automatic start device and external pumps are out
of operation and provided with prohibiting tags. Switch of the electric power to the engine.

Provide engine parts of marks for remounting in the same position. Marks on engine parts should be copied
on new parts to be installed at the same location. Every exchange should be recorded in the engine logbook
mentioning the reason.

Use the MANUAL during maintenance work together with the PARTS CATALOGUE.

During all maintenance work, observe the utmost cleanliness and order.

Be aware of the risk of crankcase or camshaft case explosion!


Before performing any maintenance or inspection jobs on the engine, always allow the engine to cool down
sufficiently. A 10 minute cooling period will do after a normal stop.

Observe the fire precautions when maintenance jobs or cleaning on the engine will be done.

Always replace locking washers, copper rings, split pins, locking wires, self locking nuts and "O" rings during
assembling. In case copper rings have to be used a second time, please take care of proper annealing.

In general never leave "O"-rings mounted on spares. Store "O"-rings in a dry, cool and dark place.

Never carry out electric welding to the engine nor use the engine as conductor for welding.
In addition the following precaution must be taken before welding in the vicinity of a WECS control system;
Deactivate the system by disconnecting all external connectors and all the connectors of the unit. If necessary
protect harness, cables, sensors and other equipment from sparkles with a proper metal sheet.

Removal
10

Before using the hydraulic tools read section [2.4.3.] carefully.

11

Before dismantling, check all pipe systems concerned are drained and pressure released. After dismantling,
cover immediately all holes for lubricating oil, fuel oil and air with tape, plugs, clean cloth or similar. Engage the
turning gear. Open the indicator cocks.

12

If heavy parts are removed from the engine, e.g. a piston and connecting rod, the crankshaft may start
turning due unbalance. For safety reasons always keep the turning gear engaged throughout the jobs.

13

In many cases it is advisable to record clearances before disassembling.

Mounting
14

Make sure all parts are carefully clean (free of carbon deposit) before mounting. Do not use cotton waste for
inside cleaning of engine but use lint free cleaning rags.

Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:34

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

15

Before using the hydraulic tools read section [2.4.3.] carefully.

16

For advised glues, lubricants, sealants, see the parts catalogue. Never use other lubricants for bolt
connections of engine components than those advised. Tightening torques will strongly differ if lubricants of
different brand or type are used.

17

Before fitting spare parts, available as complete sub-assemblies, all "O" rings integrated must be inspected
on aging and damage, and replaced if necessary.

18

In general, all piping should be carefully cleaned before installing. Fuel, lubricating oil and air lines should be
acid cleaned and neutralized. Also after heating of pipe sections iron oxidation has to be removed by pickling
(acid cleaning).

19

Fit all piping stress free.

Last check
20

It is important no tools, parts or other foreign matters have been left in or on the engine and all parts have
been thoroughly cleaned before closing the engine.

21

Due to the compression ability of some gasket material the prestress of some flange connections should be
checked after 24 hours of operation.

22

Record engine parts renewed.

23

Record engine running hours.

2.4.1.2.Maintenance schedule
The total running hours between overhauls as well as the effective life time of components depend generally on the
following aspects:

The operation and maintenance of the engine should be in accordance with instructions as specified in the engine
documentation.

The intervals stated in the maintenance schedule are guidance values only, but must not be exceeded during the
guarantee period.

Everyone concerned with the maintenance of the engine should be trained and qualified for the job and should have
the engine documentation available.

To ensure the efficiency, reliability and lifetime of the engine and its components, only genuine spare parts should
be used.

The load of the engine should be between 60% and 100% of the output, indicated on the engine type plate, making
3,000 to 6,000 running hours annually.

The build on sub-suppliers components should be maintained according the sub-suppliers manufacturers
instructions.

Quality and treatment of lubricating oil, fuel, cooling water and air should be on accordance with the rules.

Deviation from the above factors may result in adapting the running hours between overhauls and/or effective life
time of the components.
2.4.1.2.1.Procedure for inspection and maintenance
Inspection

If, for example, two valve rotators have to be replaced inspect also two rotators of an other cylinder unit. If the
result of this second inspection is also negative replace all valve rotators.

The results of the first 4,000 hours inspection are mend to establish the further service intervals.

2.4.3.Background information of hydraulic tools and torque spanners
A number of important engine components are fitted by means of hydraulic tools. With the use of hydraulic tools is it
possible to stress a bold or stud of a connection till very high tension. This tightening process can be done within very
small tension limits and a great force and accuracy.
It is necessary to understand the working principle of the hydraulic tools. For this reason an explanation of the
principle is given.
For safety reasons it is important the tools are used in the correct way.
The tightening procedures have to be carried out strictly in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
For the following subjects general background information is described:
"Rolled thread"
The thread of the studs of important connections is manufactured by a "cold rolled" process to make the stud thread
strong and good resistant against fatigue. Due to this process the circumference of the thread becomes smooth and
hard. This process make studs also sensitive to breakage in case of damage. Therefore, studs must always carefully be
handled. Replace a stud when damaged.
The "easy going" nut
The stud becomes a little bit longer over its entire length during elongation. This includes that also the pitch of the
thread is a little extended. However, the pitch of the nut mounted is not extended. To make it possible to turn the nut
on the elongated stud "quite some clearance" must exist between the thread of the nut and the thread of the stud.
This clearance can be felt when turning on the nut. For this reason it must be possible, without any restriction, to turn
on a nut by hand.
In case of "heavy points" remove the nut and find and solve the problem before starting the tightening procedure.
Studs
All hydraulically stretched studs are made of high tensile strength steel. To obtain the correct force in the studs, the
studs have to be stretched to approximately 90% of the yield point of the material.
Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:34

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

This means, a force 10% more than the tightening force does overstretch the stud. This may never happen because
over- stretched studs becomes sensitive to fatigue and may break after some time.
Therefore, overstretched studs should be replaced. This is particular important for connecting rod studs and counter
weight studs.
Use genuine parts
There is a real danger in employing studs not delivered by Wrtsil Corporation in particular studs hydraulically
stretched.
If these studs are not made from the same high tensile strength material and not provided with "cold rolled thread",
problems may occur. Studs, made of material not sufficient strong, will continue to elongate even if the correct oil
pressure is applied. The nuts can be turned further until breaking.
Use of locking fluids
Clean parts carefully with a degreasing agent and dry parts before applying locking fluid.
Note!
See for specification relevant drawing / parts list (Parts Catalogue).
The hydraulic tool set consist of :

Hydraulic pump pneumatically driven or a manually operated pump.

A number of hydraulic jacks, distance pieces, tie rods, knurled nuts, high pressure hoses with quick release coupling
and tool pins to tighten or to loosen the nuts of the relevant components.

2.4.3.1.Pneumatic driven hydraulic pump unit


The pump unit ( [fig. 2.4-1] ) consist of a number of main components:

A connection (7) for the supply of service air (maximum pressure 7 bar.

A filter / water separator (12).

A lubricator (13).

A reducing valve (6) to adjust the service air between 0 and 6 bar.

A manometer (5) direct mounted after the service air reducing valve.

An air valve (4) to control the pump speed.

An air-operated piston (3) (large surface) connected to a piston in the lower section (small surface) for pressurizing
the hydraulic oil.

A container (1) for hydraulic oil (circa 5 litres).

A double pointer manometer (8) indicating the hydraulic jack pressure.

A quick-release couplings with non return valve (10).

A valve (9) in the H.P. oil return line.

The manometer (5) is connected to the air pressure line after the reducing valve (6). The manometer scale indicates a
comparable oil pressure from 0 to 1000 bar. 6 Bar service air pressure is equivalent to 1000 bar "oil pressure" on the
manometer scale. The manometer (5) makes it possible to set the required H.P. oil pressure before pumping.
To prevent, due to inaccuracy of this manometer, that the final obtained oil pressure will ends higher than the required
pressure, manometer (5) indicates 10% higher.
A manometer (8) indicates the pressure in the H.P. hydraulic system.
This calibrated manometer contains two independently working measuring mechanisms, each provided with a scale
and pointer. Recalibrating of this manometer is necessary when the indication of both pointers differs more then 10
bar.
Check the double pointer pressure gauge (8) regularly. For this purpose a calibrated pressure gauge can be delivered.
This pressure gauge can be connected at the end of the H.P. hose.

Figure 2.4-1: Diagram pneumatically driven hydraulic pump unit


Operating
Always keep the pump unit horizontally. Maintain sufficiently hydraulic oil in the container to avoid air in the system
and check if valve (14) is open.
During filling of the H.P. pump container, it is recommended to connect the set according to [Fig. 2.4-2] . Before
filling, open the release valve (9) and empty the jack (15) by pressing piston and cylinder simultaneously. Next, the
container can be filled through the filling plug (2). (For specification of the hydraulic oil, see chapter [1.2.] ).
1

Close valves (4) and (9), see fig 2.4 - 1 and [fig. 2.4-2] .

Connect at (10) the H.P. hose (11) to the hydraulic jacks (15).

Connect the service air at (7).

After adjusting the "air pressure" at the value of the required oil pressure, start the pump by opening air
valve (4). The hydraulic system will be pressurized, visible on manometer (8). At a value of approx. 10% below
the adjusted value, the pump will stop.

Slowly turn the spindle of the reducing valve (6) counter clockwise, by which the hydraulic oil pressure will
increase.

Continue pumping until the reading on the manometer of the hydraulic system (8) shows the required oil
pressure. The manometer in the air system will now show a pressure of circa 10 % higher.

After the correct oil pressure has been reached, push down the locking ring over the reducing valve spindle to
fix the setting of the reducing valve.

Every time the pump is operated, the pressure will rise automatically and accurately till the fixed pump setting
(accuracy 5 bar). When the hydraulic stretching procedure is completed close valve (4) and always open slowly
valve (9). Quick opening of valve (4) may damage the hydraulic pressure manometer.

When the required pressure is reached and the pump continues slowly working, the hydraulic system is leaking, e.g. a
leaking coupling or a leaking hydraulic jack.
When the hydraulic system contains air, disconnect the coupling at (10).
Press the small valve in the coupling by means of a pin and run the pump slowly. Let oil escape as long as it contains
air.
Warning!
Always check the correct connecting of hose couplings to pump unit and jacks special when more jacks are connected
at the time. An incorrectly made connection may cause the jack is not connected and the jack in question not
pressurized although the manometer indicates the correct pressure.

Figure 2.4-2: Pneumatic driven hydraulic pump unit


2.4.3.2.Hydraulic jack
A hydraulic jack, see [fig. 2.4-3] for an example, consists basically of a housing (3) and a piston (1) which is
accommodated in a recess in the top of the housing. The piston is sealed at the top and the bottom with O-rings, (7)
and (8).
The space between the O-rings can be filled with oil under pressure via connection (13). The enclosed area of the
piston multiplied by the applied oil pressure results in the stretching force in the pulling piece and stud. The stud shall,
as a consequence of the applied force, be lengthened. Every time when the same force (oil pressure) is applied, the
same lengthening of the stud will be realised. To exert the required force in the stud, only a limited lengthening of the
stud is required, a few mm only. The stroke of the jack shown is 9 mm, which can differ with the type of jack, and is
sufficient for the stud elongation.
After the nut is fastened or loosened and the oil pressure is released, the stretching process can be repeated.
After the oil pressure is released it takes some time, for the springs (12) on top of the piston, to force the piston back
into bottom position as friction exists in the returning of the hydraulic oil to the sump of the hydraulic pump in the
small oil drillings in the jack, in the valves in the quick release couplings and the relative large quantity of oil to return
to the pump.
If no time is given to displace the oil and to lower the piston till bottom position, for instance by too quickly
disconnecting the hoses from the jack, the piston will stop a few mm from bottom. If this method of stretching is
repeated the piston finally has no working stroke left and in the next stroke a situation arises in which the retaining
cover (4) is breaking the bolts (11). The retaining cover is not kept in place and will be stopped by two bolts (10).
To avoid this situation the returning of the piston into bottom position can be realized by waiting, or by using a
spanner on top of the jack when mounted on a stud.
The piston is in bottom position when the top face of the jack is level with the top face of the retaining ring.

For some power demanding operations a hydraulic extractor jack is applied. The jack is utilized in connection with the
manual operated pump, see [fig. 2.4-4] .

2.4.3.4.H.P. hose
The maximum permissable hose pressure is 1500 bar.
The H.P. hose is made up of a plastic inner hose wrapped with 4 layers of steel wire, around which is a flexible, bluecoloured "skin". This "skin" serves to make any damage to the H.P. hose more easily visible and to retain the oil
stream if an internal leak develops. In this case a "blister" is formed on the hose.
Work safely!
1

Check the hose and quick-release couplings for damage before use.

Ensure the quick-release couplings are thoroughly clean before use. Dirt can cause damage to the quickrelease couplings so leaks may develop.

After use, seal the quick-release couplings again with the dust caps (1).

Figure 2.4-6: H.P. hose


Never work with damaged hoses! The hoses will remain in good condition if you:
4

never try to remove the clamp fitting from the hose

never bend the hose into a radius smaller than 160 mm

never twist the hose

never damage the hose by, for example, placing heavy objects on it

never apply a tensile load to the hose, for example, by tugging

never use any oil other than is specified

10

never use the hose for other purposes.

Note!
Damaged hoses or quick-release couplings should be discarded.
DO NOT CARRY OUT REPAIRS!
2.4.3.5.H.P. quick-release coupling
A complete quick-release coupling consists of:
1. male connector
2. female connector
3. spring controlled valves

Figure 2.4-7: H.P. quick-release coupling


The H.P. quick-release couplings are used to facilitate easy connecting and disconnecting of various parts of the
hydraulic tool and are self-closing. This means that it is impossible for air to enter the hose or the jacks, and oil losses
are minimal.
In order to guarantee the valves function efficiently, the couplings should be thoroughly clean before use. For this
reason the quick-release couplings should always be sealed with dust caps (4) and (5).

The couplings have a conical thread (NPT) which is self-sealing when the coupling is mounted to the hose fitting or a
jack. Do not use sealing tape. Pieces of tape in the hydraulic system will impair efficient operation.
2.4.3.6.Hand-operated hydraulic pump
The hydraulic pump consists of the following main components.
1. oil container
2. pump element
3. oil pressure manometer (double indicator)
4. H.P. oil connection (2x)
5. release valve
6. filling plug
7. venting point

Before using check if there is sufficient hydraulic oil in the container (1) to avoid air in the system. (Always
use oxidation resistant oil see chapter [1.2.] 1.1.)

Loosen locking lever (9) to operate pump handle and to open the automatic venting point (7).

Connect the pump to the jacks, by the H.P. hoses.

Note!
Never apply pressure to a jack which is not in use for stretching studs, otherwise the plunger will exceed its

maximum stroke.

Close the release valve of the pump and apply the prescribed pressure. If the pressure drops, there might be
a leakage in a connection or somewhere else. The leakage should be found and repaired.

Note!
Calibrate the double indicator manometer if the difference between the indicators is more than 10 bar .

Always reduce the pressure slowly to zero in order to avoid forming of foam on the oil and/or to protect the
indicator.

During transport of the hydraulic pump lock pump handle (8) with lever (9) to close the venting point (7).

2.4.3.7.Safety instructions for hydraulic tools


The following general instructions and guides will be helpful to determine if your system components are properly
connected.
1

Be sure all hydraulic hoses and fittings are connected to the correct inlet and outlet ports of the pump,
cylinders, valves and other system components. An incorrectly made connection may cause a not connected
jack in question and not pressurized although the manometer indicates the correct pressure.

Be sure all threaded connections are fully tightened and free of leakage. Seal threaded connections with a
high-grade thread sealer.
Do not over-tighten any connection.

Excessive tightening will cause strain on threads and castings which could cause fitting failure at pressures
below rated capacity.

Fully tighten hydraulic connectors (avoid excessive force). Loose connectors will act as a partial or complete
line restriction causing little or no oil flow and resulting in equipment damage or failure.

If the maximum stroke is exceeded the sealing sets of the piston will be damaged. Pressurized oil will escape
and the pressure drops to zero. If this has happens the jack has to be disassembled, the sealings inspected and
if damaged, replaced by new.

Do not drop heavy objects on hydraulic hoses. A sharp impact may cause bends or breaks to internal hose
wire strands. Applying pressure to the damaged hose will cause internal flexing which will eventually break the
hose strands causing the hose to rupture.

Do not use the hydraulic hose to carry a hydraulic component (i.e. pumps, cylinders and valves).

Avoid sharp bends and kinks when routing hydraulic hoses. If pressure is applied to a bend or kinked hose,
the oil flow will be restricted causing severe back-pressure. Also the sharp bend and kinks will internally damage
the hose leading to premature failure.

Avoid situations where loads are not directly centered on the cylinder plunger. Off-center loads produce
considerable strain on cylinder plungers and may slip or fail causing potentially dangerous results. Avoid point
loading. Distribute the load evenly across the entire saddle surface.

10

Always provide clearance for hoses and connectors to avoid moving objects, abrasion or sharp objects.

11

Use hydraulic pressure gauges with safe operating ranges in the hydraulic system. Do not exceed the safe
limit of the lowest rated component used within your system.

12

Keep hydraulic equipment away from flames and heat. Excessive heat (above 70C) will soften packings
and seals, resulting in fluid leaks.

13

Never attempt to lift a load which exceeds the capacity of a cylinder or jack. Overloading causes equipment
failure and possible personal injury.

Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:34

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

14

Do not overextend the hydraulic jack. The cylinder will take the load on the plunger stop ring. However, using
the full stroke does not supply power and only adds unnecessary strain to the cylinder.

15

Keep oil lines clean. When connector halves are disconnected, always put on dust caps. Use every precaution
to guard unit against entrance of dirt because dirt and foreign matters may cause pump, cylinder and valve
failures.

2.4.3.8.Loosening of hydraulically tightened connection


Note!
Loosening pressure = tightening pressure.
To loosen a connection the same oil pressure, or somewhat lower than the final pressure with which the connection
has been tightened, is required.
Prevent overstretching
To prevent overstretching, the hydraulic pressure applied to the studs should never exceed the tightening pressure
plus 5%. Furthermore, operate the pneumatic driven hydraulic pump according the instructions.
There is no reason to apply a higher pressure than the tightening pressure. When studs have been tightened to the
setting value, the prestress in the studs may decrease slightly during running of the engine as a result of the forces
incurred in the engine components. Therefore, the oil pressure in the hydraulic jacks, required for disassembly will be
the same or somewhat lower than the tightening pressure.
If one or more nuts can't be loosened at setting value check with a feeler gauge of 0.05 mm if the nut is free from the
contact surface. If the nut is free and it is still not possible to turn the nut, the nut is sticking due to dirt, corrosion or
damage. In such case try to turn the nut using a copper pin and a hammer.
If still not successful don't increase the oil pressure because it serves no purpose. Applying a too high oil pressure
introduces the risk of damaging the thread in the engine component in which the stud is mounted.
If the nut is not free
1

Check if the oil supply and pressure to all the jacks is correct.

Check the quick-release couplings and the non return valves.

Check if the nut is free from the tools.

Increase the oil pressure by maximum 5%.

If the nut can still not be loosened the connection has previously been tightened with a too high oil pressure, possible
resulting in an overstretched stud. In this case increase the oil pressure till final setting value + 10%. More than 10%
is not allowed as other construction parts can be damaged.
If, at 10% overpressure, the nut is still tight, remove the tools, cut off the nut and remove the stud. Fit a new stud
and nut.
Make sure no iron parts enter the engine.
Note!
If e.g. one cylinder head nut has to be cut leave the other three nuts tightened to prevent damage to cylinder head
and liner.
If, due to any cause, doubt exists regarding the stress in hydraulically tensioned studs the loosening value
must be found.
5

Increase the oil pressure in the hydraulic jacks in steps e.g. of 50 bar.

Check after each step whether the nuts can be turned.

Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:34

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

If this value is more than 10% below the stated value investigate the reason.

2.4.3.9.Tightening of hydraulically tightened connection


In order to organise the hydraulic procedure (jack pressure and tightening procedure) four steps are defined:
First step, positioning of engine components and pre-stress
Turn manually the nuts on the studs and check the nuts moves easily without feeling any restriction. Tighten the nuts
with the tool pin mount the hydraulic tools and pressurize the hydraulic jacks to the setting value for the pre-stress.
This pressure is applied to position the engine components to be assembled. Turn the nuts on with the tool pin.
Release slowly the oil pressure in the hydraulic jacks to prevent damage to the calibrated oil pressure gauge. Now we
have obtained a basis for the tightening procedure.
Second step, setting of materials
Pressurize the jacks till setting value of the final stress. Turn the nuts with the tool pin and count the number of holes
in the circumference of the nuts the nuts can be shifted.
When all nuts can be shifted the same number of holes we then have the indication that the elongation of all studs is
the same and that is how it should be.
In case one or more nuts can't be turned the same distance, measured on the circumference on the nuts compared to
the others, remove and inspect the tools on good functioning and check the engine components for correct position.
After releasing the jack pressure the force will set the engine components and nuts and the remaining stress in the
studs becomes somewhat lower.
Third step, obtaining the correct final stress
To correct for "setting of materials" the jacks have to be pressurized again to the pressure of the value setting of the
final stress.
Now the engine components are set it is possible to turn all nuts a little further. After the jack pressure is released the
correct final stress in the studs will exist.
Fourth step, checking the correct final stress
To make absolutely sure the connection is correct we have to make a "checking step". Pressurize the jacks again till
setting value and try, with the tool pin, to turn the nuts any further. This may not be possible. Check with a feeler
blade of 0.03 mm that no clearance exists between nut and contact surface.
If that is the case the studs have the required prestress and the components correctly connected.
Warning!
In case it is possible to tighten the nuts more than the prescribed number of holes or there is still clearance between
nut and contact surface, the connection is NOT safe. In such a case all components have to be disconnected and
examined:
- on deviation in material
- wrong assembling
- wrong assembling procedure.

2.4.3.10.Use of torque spanner


Modern technology requires more and more the fastening of screwed connections every time at the same prestress
within certain tolerances. Human forces exerted on spanners are not sufficient accurate to obtain the required result
c.q. the fastening torque. To make this possible the application of a torque spanner becomes a must.
To apply a torque spanner the following must be known to avoid mistakes resulting in unsafe connections.

A torque spanner is a precision instrument that should be handled with utmost care. Every time the torque spanner
Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:34

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

is used the spring tension of the spanner should be released before restoring the spanner in its box.

The spanner should be kept clean, not dropped and not drenched with water or dirty oil.

The spanner is calibrated between 20% and 100% of its scale and has a tolerance within 4% of its reading. Take
care the spanner is periodically recalibrated.

Calibrate the torque spanner every time in the horizontal or vertical plane to compensate for the spanner weight.

Never use the spanner over the 100% scale. Distortion may exist and readings may become inaccurate.

Always apply force on the torque spanner in a clockwise rotation, the direction shown on the spanner and only apply
the exerted force in the centre of the knurled handle. The spanner clicks and gives a few degrees of free movement
when the desired torque is reached. When you completely release the force, the spanner automatically resets for
the next torque application.

Never use a torque spanner to release connections.

A high degree of torque accuracy can be obtained in the application of the correct lubricant on the thread of the
connection. Where the contrary is not mentioned only use engine lubricating oil.

Support the tool well during tightening.


The tightening torques are torque spanner readings and should be realised by an even tightening of bolt and nut. (if
applicable, crosswise).

Always apply force on a torque spanner in a slow on-going move not passing the required setting. Using the
spanner in a fast move will easily do pass the required setting.

The rachet requires periodic cleaning and lubrication to ensure proper operation. Lubricate with a light oil. DO NOT
USE GREASE.

Note!
Torque spanner in combination with multiplier
If a torque spanner (1) is used together with a multiplier (2), mind to calculate the torque spanner reading according
the conversion factor of the multiplier.

Figure 2.4-10: Torque spanner - multiplier


Note!
Torque spanner in combination with extension
When using a torque spanner (1) with an extension (2), the torque spanner reading depends on the manner of
connecting the extension piece.
Example:
Required torque = 200 Nm.
Length of the torque spanner 500 mm.
Length of the extension piece 76.2 mm.

Bearings
The engine bearings consist of a steel shell onto which a very tiny bonding of almost pure Aluminium.
On this bonding is a running layer of Aluminium alloy.
It concerns bearings for:
- crankshaft
- connecting rod big end
- camshaft
A bearing is suitable for use as long as:
- the shell thickness is expected to stay within the given tolerances, until the next inspection, (see this
chapter).
- the inside diameter is within the given tolerances, until the next inspection, (see this chapter).
- the bearing shell is free of damage.
- the bearing shell is free of corrosion.
- the wear pattern is equal.
- the running layer is not overloaded. An overloaded bearing shell can be recognized by locally melted
or smeared lining.
Restriction for refitting of bearings.
Refitting is only allowed one time if the number of running hours is not more than 5000 hrs. even if the
bearing is within the mentioned criteria.
New bearings are treated with a corrosion protection that has to be removed before mounting.
Where bearings show heavy wear grooves in the running layer, the quality of the lubricating oil
cleaning process should be observed more carefully.

Note!
For determination of wear, engine components and measuring equipment should for some hours first be acclimated at
room temperature ( 20 C).

2.5.Engine Block with Bearings

2.5-PAAE062665-00

2.5.1.Engine block
The engine block is a one piece stiff nodular cast iron component. The engine block carries the underslung crankshaft.
The nodular cast iron main bearing caps (1) are tightened by two vertically main bearing cap studs (2) and two
horizontally side studs (3). Together they provide a very rigid crankshaft bearing construction. These studs are
tightened by hydraulic tools.
The camshaft bearing housings (4) are incorporated in the engine block.
The lubricating oil sump is mounted under the engine block and sealed by a rubber string gasket. A number of
crankcase covers are equipped with explosion relief valves.

Figure 2.5-1: Engine block


Note!
For maintenance background information, safety aspects, intervals, tolerances, and hydraulic tightening procedures,
see chapter [2.4.]

2.5.2.Main bearings
Main bearing shells are axially guided by lugs to obtain a correct position during assembly. The crankshaft axial
locating bearing, number '0', differs from the other bearings and is provided with thrust rings to limit the axial
displacement of the crankshaft.
Bearing shells are of a bi-metal type. All main bearing caps are provided with a temperature sensor. If abnormal
temperatures appear the suspected bearing, crankshaft deflections and the alignment have to be checked.
Note!

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

In order to avoid bearing and crankshaft damages the bearing caps have to be mounted always in the same position.
It is essential to follow the sequence described in this chapter of the manual .
2.5.2.1.Removing of main bearing
Warning!
Never remove two main bearings mounted side by side.

Removing side studs


1

Remove the crankcase covers on both sides of the main bearing to be inspected.

Remove the protecting caps from the side studs concerned.

Remove the temperature sensor from the main bearing cap, by loosening union (9) of the sensor cable,
remove bolt (10), loosen bolt (11) and loosen the sensor cable protecting pipe (12) by removal of three bolts,
(two in the crankcase space and one in the camshaft space). See [fig. 2.5-2] .

Figure 2.5-2: Position bearing temperature sensor

Turn tie rod [9612ZT129] fully on the side stud at the B-bank side, see [fig. 2.5-3] .

Place distance piece [9612ZT130] and jack [9612ZT901] over the tie rod. Turn knurled nut [9612ZT119] on
tie rod, see [fig. 2.5-3] .

Note!
When two jacks are available the side studs may simultaneously be loosened.

Connect H.P. hoses [9612DT381] between jack and hydraulic pump [9622ZT992] and open release valve at
the pump.

Turn knurled nut further on tie rod until jack piston is in bottom position. After the jack piston is in bottom
position turn knurled nut 6 holes counter clockwise.

2.5.3.Crankshaft axial locating bearing


The crankshaft axial locating bearing is located at the driving end of the engine. This bearing is further referred as the
'0'-bearing (zero- bearing). The '0'-bearing cap (3) and bearing shells are different in dimensions compared with the
other main bearings.
The '0' bearing cap is provided with one side stud (4) at the B-bank side.
The axial forces of the crankshaft are taken by two sets of thrust rings (1) which are accommodated in recesses on
both sides of the bearing housing of the engine block and bearing cap. The axial movement of the crankshaft is limited
by these thrust rings. The lower thrust rings are hold in position against rotation by a locating pin (2).

2.5.6.Crankcase safety valves


Crankcase explosions result from ignition of a combustible mixture of lubricating oil or gas and air. Combustion
pressure, which develops following ignition within the confined space, frequently exceeds the strength of the
crankcase housing or covers, causing destructive failure. The ignition source may be gas blow-by or an overheated
engine part.
Any part moving relative to another potentially can become excessively hot through friction to initiate combustion if
not lubricated or cooled properly. All bearings, bushing, thrust surfaces, pistons, etc. as well as the surfaces these
parts touch, are included. Broken piston or rings that allow fire in the combustion chamber to blow through to the
crankcase is also a source of crankcase ignition.
Operators must recognize that all engine/compressors have the potential to develop hot spots capable of igniting
crankcase vapours and producing a crankcase explosion. The potential can be reduced or safely contained by attention
Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:34

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

to good maintenance practices.


Engine stop / cool down period
If a crankcase explosion occurs, allow the equipment to cool down at least 15 minutes before attempting to open any
crankcase cover doors. The heat inside the crankcase will promote an inrush of fresh air when cover doors are
removed and hot spots remaining from the explosion may cause a violent secondary explosion.
If smoke is observed coming from crankcase vents ore breathers, safely shut down the equipment and vacate the
area.
Smoke from vents or breathers (especially white smoke) is an indication that a hot spot is vaporizing lubricating oil
and is often observed as a precursor to a crankcase explosion.
A sudden increase in crankcase pressure is an indication of gas blow-by probably caused by broken piston rings
indicates an increased risk of a crankcase explosion.
Working
A corrugated plate valve (1), see [fig. 2.5-17] , is by a conical shaped spring (2) forced on an O-ring seat (3) closing
the crankcase to the outside. In case of an excessive overpressure (explosion) the plate valve is forced into open
position allowing gasses to escape through a number of baffle plates (4). The baffle plates extinguish the flames. The
conical shape spring closes the plate valve and avoids the entering of fresh air.
Maintenance
1

Periodically open the plate valve manually over the full stroke and check plate valve returns to its seat
without hamper, see section [2.4.1.]

Check conical spring on spring force. Renew oxidised springs.

Periodically renew all O-rings, see chapter [2.4.] 1..

Check by feeler gauge if plate valve is resting on the O-ring and not on the steel O-ring housing.

After O-ring renewal move plate valve manually over the full stroke, see point 1.

2.6-PAAE062665-00

2.6.1.Crankshaft
The crankshaft design features a very short cylinder distance with a maximum bearing length resulting in a short
engine. The crankshaft is forged from one piece of high tensile steel.
Counterweights are mounted hydraulically onto the crankshaft webs. The high degree of balancing results in an even
and thick oil film for all bearings. Main bearings and crankshaft bearings are of the bimetal type with a steel back and
a soft running layer with excellent corrosion resistance. The gear wheel on the crankshaft is mounted by a flange
connection.
The crankshaft is provided with a torsional vibration damper at the free end of the engine.
Note!
For maintenance background information, safety aspects, intervals, tolerances, inspections, and hydraulic tightening
procedures, see chapter [2.4.]
2.6.1.1.Crankshaft deflections
Take crankshaft deflection readings only when engine and foundation are at ambient temperature (cold engine) or at
normal operating temperature (hot engine), which means within 40 minutes after running the engine for more than 6
hours on at least 60% load.
All measurements have to be recorded on "Crankshaft alignment" measurement record supplied by Wrtsil. The

Before taking crankshaft deflections on an hot engine, the dial gauge should be warmed up to the same temperature
of the engine in order to avoid temperature influence on the readings. For instance the dial gauge could be warmed
up by placing it on the engine feet for a while (15 minutes).

Lubricate the bearings for a few minutes by running the pre-lubricating pump.

Remove crankcase covers at both sides.

Start at cylinder 1 and turn crankshaft clockwise till crankpin is 30 after Bottom Dead Centre ( BDC ).
This crankshaft position is starting point 'A' for the dial gauge reading, see [fig. 2.6-1] .

2.6.2.4.Inspection and maintenance of piston and connecting rod
When removing carbon deposits from the piston and piston ring grooves, special care should be taken not to damage
the piston material.
Note!
Never use emery cloth on the piston skirt.
For cleaning of carbon deposits from the piston crown it is advised to use kerosene, fuel oil or a carbon solvent. Do not
use chemical cleaning agents for cleaning of the piston skirt as such agents may damage the phosphate / graphite
overlay.
Piston rings should not definitely be replaced during a piston inspection as long as the rings are not damaged, not
taken from the piston and the cylinder liner surface is in a good condition.
When piston maintenance is carried out according the maintenance schedule the piston rings have to be renewed.
Note!
Remove used and mount new piston rings always with pliers [9612ZT185] , see [fig. 2.6-17] .

Clean all parts carefully.

Check if the oil bores in the gudgeon pin are in good condition.

Check visually if contact faces for bearing shells and bearing cap of the connecting rod are in good condition.

After piston cleaning, measure the height of the piston ring grooves and height clearance of the rings in
their respective grooves. See design measurements in section [2.4.5.2.]
The measurements can be carried out with piston rings mounted.

Measure the big end bearing bore in two directions and in each direction at three different places.

Note!
Take good care for the correct pressure in relation with the used hydraulic jacks! See also section [2.4.4.]
Clockwise rotating
For a clockwise rotating engine all connecting rods of 'A' and 'B' bank after mounting into the engine must have their
mark 'OI' (oil inlet) pointing to the 'B'-bank side, see [fig. 2.6-15] .
The 'X' mark on liners and pistons at the 'B' bank must point to the 'B' bank camshaft side.
The 'X' mark on liners and pistons at the 'A' bank must point to the 'A' bank camshaft side.

Figure 2.6-15: Clockwise rotating


This means, before mounting the piston onto the connecting rod, the destination of the connecting rod, piston and
liner assembling must be determined for the 'A' or 'B' bank.

For mounting the unit into the 'B' bank the mark 'X' on the piston crown, the mark 'X' on the liner collar and the 'OI'
mark in the connecting rod must all be at one side.

For mounting the unit into the 'A' bank the mark 'X' on the piston crown and the mark 'X' on the liner collar should
be at one side and the 'OI' mark in the connecting rod at the opposite side.

Counter clockwise rotating


For a counter clockwise rotating engine all connecting rods of 'A' and 'B' bank after mounting into the engine must
have their mark 'OI' (oil inlet) pointed to the 'A' bank side, see [fig. 2.6-16] .
The 'X' mark on liners and pistons mounted at the 'B' bank must point to the 'B' bank camshaft side.
The 'X' mark on liners and pistons mounted at the 'A' bank must point to the 'A' bank camshaft side.

2.6.3.Vibration damper crankshaft


The vibration damper serves to reduce the torsional vibration in the crankshaft. The damper consists of a housing and
a free rotating inertia ring supported by an axial and radial bearing. It forms a totally enclosed unit. The free space
between inertia ring and damper housing is filled with a high viscosity fluid. The combustion pressure, exerted on the
pistons, causes a torsional vibration in the crankshaft. The energy caused by the vibration, is converted into heat and
cooled by engine lubricating oil at the outside of the vibration damper.
2.6.3.1.Maintenance
The viscous damper fluid is subject to aging during engine operation. In sending fluid samples on a regular base to
Wrtsil Corporation the change of the viscosity can be determined. In the analysis the quality of the fluid is
mentioned and a forecast is given of the number of running hours still to go.
The damper cover has two sampling plugs located 180 opposed. If one of the sampling plugs is accessible, a fluid
sample can be taken with the damper in situ. For liquid sampling, a kit can be ordered from Wrtsil Corporation
department under no. 17630 [9622DT472] .
Note!
Dampers with a viscosity out of range may cause crankshaft breakdown.
2.6.3.2.Liquid sampling
It is advisable to take a sample when the engine is still warm.
Proceed as follows:
1

Bar the crankshaft until a sampling plug is easy accessible.

Remove the lubricating oil pump if neither of the sampling plugs in the damper is accessible for sampling.

Remove locking of sampling plug, using a punch and unscrew plug with spanner [9612ZT497] . Do not yet
remove plug!

Unscrew one cap nut from (plastic) liquid container, the thread of which corresponds to that of the sampling
plug in the damper. The sides of the liquid container have various threads for other damper types.

Remove sampling plug and screw liquid container instead.

Remove the outer cap nut from the liquid container. Make sure that no machine oil or dirt can enter while
filling the liquid container!

The filling period of the container may take from a few seconds up to more than an hour depending on liquid
condition.

If no liquid appears:

Remove second sampling plug.

Supply nitrogen of 3.5 bar maximum pressure through the open second sampling plug hole. If no nitrogen is
available air may be used provided this air is properly filtered and dry.

If a liquid sample can not be obtained in this way it can be assumed that the damper liquid has thickened to much.
In this case the damper has to be replaced.
Once the liquid has reached the open end of the liquid container:

Cut off the nitrogen/air if applicable.

Screw the outer cap nut onto the liquid container.


Unscrew the container from the damper and fit the second cap onto the container.

10

Fit the damper sampling plug(s) with new joint ring(s) supplied with the mounting kit. Replace any damaged
sampling plug if necessary.

11

Tighten the sampling plugs at a torque of 35 Nm.

12

Lock the sampling plugs.

13

After sampling, provide the sample with a label (included in the sampling kit) showing the following data :

serial number of the vibration damper (if possible)

engine type

engine number

number of operating hours

Max. 10 liquid samples of 1 cm each are allowed to be taken.

2.6.4.Turning gear
Engine cranking is done by means of an electrical motor which drives a gearbox (5).
For fine adjustment of the crankshaft use the hexagon spindle (3).
The engaging and disengaging of the turning gear is done by operating lever (1) and is secured by a locking pin (2),
see [fig. 2.6-25] .
An electrically start interlock (6) and a pneumatically start interlock (7) block the engine start in case the turning gear
is engaged.

Figure 2.6-25: Turning gear


Life time of worm gear units depends to a great extent on the grade of oil used. Use only the grade of oil stated on the
instruction plate.
The gear units are maintenance free under normal operating conditions. They should be checked for leakages at
certain intervals.

The applied gear unit is filled with a synthetic lubricant. If topping-up is necessary a synthetic lubricant should be used
in accordance with the instruction plate.
See also section [1.2.1.1.2.] for the recommended lubricating oil.
Maintenance
1

Grease the nipple (4) on the hub of the gearwheel only at disengaged turning gear. This to avoid an overdose
of grease behind the gearwheel shaft.

Check, with the engine not in operation, by engaging and disengaging a few times, the turning gear moves
smoothly on the shaft.

Check the locking pin (2) of the engaging lever (1) is smooth and correctly working.

2.7.Cylinder Head with Valves

2.7-PAAE062665-00

2.7.1.Cylinder head
The cylinder head is provided with two inlet valves(1) and two exhaust valves (2) with valve rotators (10) and bridge
pieces (11), a fuel injector (3), a safety valve (25) and an indicator cock (26). The cylinder head and the exhaust
valves seats (4) are cooled by HT cooling water. See [fig. 2.7-1] and [fig. 2.7-8] .
HT cooling water is supplied from the engine block to the cylinder head by means of a free inserted interconnecting
pipe (27) between engine block and cylinder head. HT cooling water is discharged through an outlet channel (6) at the
upper side of the cylinder head via a multiduct, back to the engine block. Integrated in the multiduct are the charge
air, exhaust gas and cooling water connections, the multiduct remains normally connected to the engine block. By
removing 6 bolts the cylinder head is disconnected from the the multiduct.
The valve lifting gear (7) is mounted to the cylinder head by two bolts and is described in chapter [2.8.]
A single pipe connects cylinder head with the engine lubricating oil system and takes care for lubrication of valve lifting
gear, bridge pieces, valves and valve stems.

Figure 2.7-1: Cross section cylinder head


2.7.1.1.Maintenance of cylinder head
Cylinder head maintenance consists mainly in measurement checks, cleaning, grinding of sealing surfaces and
maintenance of cylinder head components.
Scale formation in cooling water spaces will disturb the cooling effect. Cleaning can be realised by chemical solvents.
Contact a specialised company for chemical cleaning.
When scale formation exists observe the cooling water treatment.
A comfortable manner of doing maintenance to cylinder heads is with the aid of a tilting frame [9612ZT958] . After
placing the cylinder head onto the tilting frame fixate the head by 2 nuts and rings (12).
The cylinder head can be turned over and fixed in position by means of locking pin (13) in one of the holes (14).

Procedure for:

Exhaust valve seat:


- Heat cylinder head slowly and equally, till 90C.
- Cool exhaust valve seat e.g. in a deep freeze unit till -50C.
- Lubricate O-ring (12) with silicon grease and place it in the valve seat recess in the cylinder head, see
[fig. 2.7-17] .
- Apply a sealing compound at the biggest outer diameter of the valve seat. Type of sealing compound is mentioned
in the parts catalogue.
- Continue direct with mounting the seat in the cylinder head.

Inlet valve seat:


- Heat cylinder head slowly and equally, till 90C.
- Cool inlet valve seat in liquid nitrogen till -180C.
- Continue direct with mounting the seat in the cylinder head.

12

Place the cooled inlet valve seat (8) or exhaust valve seat (9) onto tool [9612ZT945] and immediately into
the cylinder head recess. Fixate the tool with plate (13) and nut (14) and keep tool tight for at least 5 minutes

to keep the seat in correct position during warming up.


Note!
Inlet and exhaust valve seats require different counter plates, exhaust (10) and inlet (11), see [fig. 2.7-17] .

13

After mounting of the exhaust valve seat and cooling down of the cylinder head it is strongly advised to make
a water pressure test (5 bar).

Figure 2.7-17: Mounting valve seats


Machine grinding of valve seat
14

Although the angle of the valve seat ring is accurate machined, due to the shrinking process of the valve seat
in the cylinder heads, the seats will slightly deform in profile resulting in small deviations of the required valve
seat angle with the valve.
Every time new valve seats are mounted the valve seat has to be machine grinded and the blueing test has to
be carried out, see section [2.7.3.2.]

Lubricate valve stems with clean engine oil.

Fit valves and check the free movement. Before the valve touches the valve seat seat be sure the seat
surfaces are absolute clean. Replace valves in their original locations.

Carry out the blueing test, see section

Make sure the contact surfaces of springs, spring discs and valve rotators are undamaged and clean. Install
springs and valve rotators.

Place assembling tool [9612ZT919] in combination with jack [9612ZT913] in position, see [fig. 2.7-13] .

Compress valve springs and fit valve collets.

Unload springs slowly. Check if valve collets do fit properly during unloading of the springs and clearances
between the two valve collets halves is equal.

2.7.4.Valve rotators
Exhaust and inlet valves are provided with valve rotators devices. These devices slowly rotate the valves during engine
operation. The valve rotation results in an even wear pattern with a better metallic contact between valve and valve
seat. The rotating of the valves improves the running behavior and in turn considerably extends the maintenance
interval period of the valve.
The valve rotators for inlet and exhaust are similar. In both cases the valve rotator rotates the valves only during the
opening process of the valves.
During maintenance only use engine oil for lubrication. Don't grease the steel balls of the rotator bearings as this may
result in a less effective working of the rotator.
Valve rotators should periodically be checked on good working i.e. the valve rotates slowly during engine operation.
Before an overhaul remove cylinder head cover and check rotation of all valves. Check during each valve maintenance
the valve rotator on wear. During maintenance work, keep the rotator components as a set and do not mix with parts
of other sets.

2.7.5.Injector sleeve
2.7.5.1.Maintenance
Every time an injector is extracted from the cylinder head the sealing surface at the bottom of the cylinder head has to
be cleaned and inspected to be sure of a gas tight sealing against the high combustion pressures.
One of the possibilities to reface the seal is to lap the surface with a fine grinding compound in combination with
grinding tool [9612ZT962] .

2.7.6.Indicator cock and Safety valve
Indicator cock
Each cylinder head is provided with an indicator cock (1), see [fig. 2.7-25] . The inside construction is such that
pressure in the cylinder closes the valve. Consequently the force needed to close the valve is relatively low.
1

Before starting the engine close the indicator cocks with just enough force to bring the sealing surfaces
together. The cylinder pressure will further close the cock.

After an engine stop open the indicator cocks only half a turn.

Avoid inadvertent tightening during measuring cylinder pressures.

Add high temperature resistant lubricant (up to 1000C) to spindle threads when it gives friction.

Always use tool [9612SW510] to open and close the indicator cocks (1), see [fig. 2.7-25] .

2.8.Camshaft and Valve Drive

2.8-PAAE062665-00

2.8.1.Camshaft driving gear


The camshaft is driven by the crankshaft through gear wheels. The gearing consists of a split gear wheel (1) on the
crankshaft, an intermediate gear wheel (2) and a camshaft gear wheel (3), see [fig. 2.8-1] . The camshaft rotates in
the same direction as the crankshaft at half the speed.

Figure 2.8-1: Gearwheel drive camshaft


The camshaft is assembled of camshaft sections (4) and camshaft journals (5) which are connected by bolts (6), see
[fig. 2.8-2] . The camshaft sections are per camshaft identical.
Each cylinder has its own camshaft section in which is integrated the fuel, exhaust and inlet cam. The camshaft
journals are not identical in relation to the position of the locating pins (7) on both sides of the camshaft journal. The
position of the locating pins determine the firing order.
It is therefore that the camshaft journals have to be remounted to their original position or replaced by a similar
camshaft journal.

2.9.2.4.Inspection of fuel pump push rod
The connection between the fuel pump tappet (37) and fuel pump plunger is made by the fuel pump push rod (15),
see [fig. 2.9-11] .
Due to machining tolerances in components between the fuel pump tappet and the fuel pump plunger, the push rod
lengths vary from one to another.
During maintenance the push rods should be provided with the cylinder unit number and not be interchanged. A new
push rod should be machined to the correct length at the smallest end.
Note!
Fuel pump push rods are precision ground to the exact length for each individual pump bracket. Do not interchange
these push rods.
For determination of length of fuel pump push rod (15) take care that the tappet roller (16) rests on the base circle.
Take the push rod out and place depth gauge [9612ZT547] , see [fig. 2.9-13] . The depth gauge reading minus 1 mm
gives the exact length of push rod to be installed. If 'X' is not within tolerance inspect the concerned parts for wear.
For tolerance see section [2.4.5,] [fig. 2.4-40] .

2.9.3.Fuel injector
HP fuel (1) enters the injector holder sideways delivered through the connecting piece, see [fig. 2.9-15] .
Spill fuel (4), passing the injector needle, escapes along the holder and the connecting piece through a hole in the
cylinder head at (4).
Leaking combustion gases, passing the sealing between the sealing surface in the cylinder head and the injector tip,
will escape together with the spill fuel at (5).
The injector tip is cooled by lubricating oil supplied by the engine lubrication system. The oil enters the injector at (2)
and after cooling the injector tip it leaves at (3) at top of the injector. Afterwards the oil runs down to the crankcase.
An O-ring is fitted around the injector to avoid lube oil leaking downwards the injector holder.

2.9.5.Testing of fuel injectors


Warning!
Be careful in testing fuel injectors. Fuel jets are powerful and will penetrate skin and underlying skin layers and blood.
Such an accident calls for direct specialistic treatment. Should this aid not be available disinfect affected part of body.
However, it remains necessary to consult a specialist.

Testing the opening pressure


1

Fill the pump reservoir with absolutely calibration fluid even if a filter is mounted in the reservoir.

Figure 2.9-22: Testing device fuel injectors


2

Connect the injector to the test equipment.

Before final tightening of the connecting line between the pump and the injector fill the connecting line with
fuel and vent the air by a few pump strokes.

Tighten the connection.

Increase the pump pressure slowly and watch the manometer pressure on fuel spraying commencement.
The opening pressure should be accurate within 10 bar. For openings pressure see section [2.4.5.1.]

Printed by DSME 2 2009-06-02 17:36

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_000004

APCPCWM_4828539:WP_0000045WP_0000045

Adjusting the opening pressure


6

Remove the locking plug (9) with spanner [9650ZT108] , see [fig. 2.9-18] .

Follow "Testing the opening pressure".

If necessary adjust the opening pressure by turning the adjusting plug (10) with tool [9612ZT187] , see
[fig. 2.9-18] .

After adjusting the opening pressure, tighten the locking plug (9) with tool [9650ZT108] to the correct
torque, see section [2.4.4.8.]

Checking the spray pattern


10

For protection of manometer close manometer valve.

11

Hold a dry sheet of paper underneath nozzle and give pump a quick stroke with pump handle.

12

Check uniformity of spray pattern.

13

If spray pattern is not symmetrical impurities are obstructing injector spray holes. Repeat test after cleaning.

Checking the needle seat tightness


14

Increase the pressure to approximate 20 bar below the injector opening pressure.

15

Keep the pressure for about 10 seconds constant.

16

Check the appearance of fuel drops on the injector tip. A slight wetting is acceptable.

17

If drops appear the injector tip has to be cleaned internally or replaced. Repeat the test.

Note!
Prevent that spill fuel from drain hole "F" reaches the injector tip.

Figure 2.9-23: Fuel injector


Checking the needle spindle tightness
18

Increase the injector pressure till approximate 20 bar below the opening pressure.

19

Check the time for a pressure drop of 200 bar.

A pressure drop with a duration between 10...20 sec. is acceptable.

A rapid pressure drop indicates excessive wear of the needle spindle and/or housing. The injector tip has to be
replaced.

25 Seconds or more indicates a fouled spindle. Both, needle and injector tip have to be cleaned.

Note!
Only install satisfactorily tested fuel injectors in the engine or store them with the hole 'F' and the nozzle tip closed by
a plastic cap.
