Refer to the measuring point list for details of order-specific configuration data.
E 531 685 / 01 E -- 08.98 --

Part 1
Communication with other assemblies is realized via serial interfaces:

y 2 x CAN bus interface (redundant CAN bus) for communication with the follow-
ing assemblies:
-- Additional Propulsion Control System PCS-5 units
-- Superordinate monitoring and control systems
(Remote Control System RCS, Monitoring and Control System MCS)
1.2.2 Software
The software (program) is loaded into Engine Control Unit ECU 4 via the dialog unit inter-
face when the engine is installed or on initial start-up of the electrical system.
Limit values and parameters for engine control, governing and monitoring are finalized
during the project implementation or engine trial phase and loaded into Propulsion Control
System PCS-5 of MTU/DDC Series 4000 during the test run. These values can be edited
with the dialog unit.
The use of pluggable data modules has the advantage of making it possible to use an
Engine Control Unit ECU 4 on a wide range of engines in a great variety of applications by
simply transferring the software modules should replacement become necessary.

Part 1
1.2.3 Speed/injection governing
The engine speed governor integrated in Engine Control Unit ECU 4 has the following
functions:
y Maintaining the desired engine speed under varying load conditions
y Adjusting the engine speed when settings are changed by the operator
Other tasks of Engine Control Unit ECU 4 with regard to speed governing are:
y Setting a defined fuel flow to be injected on starting the engine
y Engine safety shutdown
y Optimizing performance characteristics, exhaust emission values and fuel con-
sumption
y Protecting the engine against overloading
Engine governing incorporates protective functions for the engine, e.g. power limitation by
limiting the amount of fuel injected depending on certain operating values and conditions.
Engine speed setting (nominal value) can be switched between

y Remote Control System RCS (setting via CAN bus or analog/binary signal)
y Local operation at the LOP with speed up/down pushbuttons

Fig. 7: Control loop
The speed governor compares the speed setting (control lever, up/down keys) with the
current engine speed. If the two values deviate, it adapts its output signal (nominal injec-
tion fuel flow) to compensate the difference. The PID characteristics ensure rapid
response to changes and precise speed setting.
Dynamic fuel flow limitation (operating point-dependent) protects the engine against over-
loading.
The nominal fuel flow after limitation is the input signal for the injection start/injection end
governor (controlled by map). The power electronics activate the injection valves of the
individual cylinders according to its settings. Engine Control Unit ECU 4 also regulates the
injection pressure of the Common Rail system.
-- 08.98 -- E 531 685 / 01 E

Part 1
1.2.5 Angle measuring/determining control timing
Control times are generated in the electronics on the basis of information from the angle
measuring sensors on two measuring gears. One measuring gear is mechanically coupled
to the crankshaft and one to the camshaft.
During normal operation, the crankshaft sensor determines the precise angle of the crank-
shaft to determine the control times for injection and also derive the engine speed.
During normal operation, the camshaft sensor allows differentiation between intake and
ignition cycle.
Crankshaft:
The measuring gear on the crankshaft turns at the speed of the engine. Each tooth on the
measuring gear generates a pulse in the inductive sensor (channel KW 1). The crankshaft
angle is determined by evaluating the number of pulses from the sensor. Counting is syn-
chronized by a tooth space (i.e. sensor pulse is omitted) at a defined angle position.
Camshaft:
The measuring gear on the camshaft turns at half the engine speed. Only the tooth space
is evaluated by Engine Control Unit ECU 4 during normal operation.
This tooth space enables the electronics to differentiate between the intake and ignition
cycles of cylinder A1.

Part 1
1.2.6 Adjustable speed droop
Fig. 8 shows the principle control range of the engine governor and the effect of adjust-
able speed droop (load-dependent nominal speed value change).
Speed droop is required to compensate for loading on coupled drives. Speed droop is set
specifically for the plant and can be changed using the dialog unit.
Speed droop is defined as a relative change in speed when the engine is unloaded.
Speed droop is referenced to the nominal speed (= maximum speed at maximum power
output). Every point in the operating range is influenced when the load changes.

Part 1
1.2.7 Power limitation (fuel flow limitation)
1.2.7.1 Dynamic fuel flow limitation
Dynamic fuel flow limits, e.g. variable fuel injection limits, protect the engine against over-
loading and optimize the exhaust emission values. Engine Control Unit ECU 4 determines
the maximum injection fuel flow on the basis of preset and stored engine characteristic
maps.
The result is:

y Speed-dependent fuel flow limitation (DBR)
y Fuel flow limitation as a function of charge air pressure
y Fuel flow limitation as a function of fuel temperature
y Fuel flow limitation in case of charger overspeeding
1.2.7.2 Fixed fuel flow limitation
Fixed fuel flow limits used for power limitation and reduction protect the engine in case of
y High coolant temperature (second limit value)
(configurable)
y Electronic malfunctions
y Supply voltage out of range
1.2.7.3 Control of fuel flow during engine starting
The amount of fuel injected on starting the engine is increased from a preset initial value
over a time ramp to a specified value. This value is calculated by the function fInjection =
f(speed). The amount of fuel injected is limited as a function of speed in this way. This fuel
flow limit applies until idling speed has been reached for the first time.
1.2.7.4 Speed limitation
Engine speed limitation also represents a way of protecting the engine against overload-
ing (e.g. thermal overloading). The speed is limited when the coolant temperature is too
high (second limit value violated) (configurable).
E 531 685 / 01 E -- 08.98 --

Part 1
1.2.8 Nominal speed value handling
The speed setting (= nominal speed value) is the reference variable for the engine speed
control loop.
The nominal speed is set via CAN bus communication under normal operating conditions
(with Remote Control System RCS-5 connected).
Binary input BE 8 “Switch nominal speed” switches between the following variants:
y Nominal speed value setting from the Remote Control System
The nominal speed can be adjusted between idling and maximum speed.
The internal nominal speed follows the set speed value applied via a configur-
able acceleration or deceleration curve (speed ramp). Should the signal fail, the
set value which was previously applied is maintained or the engine throttled
back to idling speed.
The response can be configured as required.
-- Nominal speed value setting via CAN bus
-- Nominal speed value setting via a nominal speed setting analog input
(0 V ... 10 V, 4 mA ... 20 mA, potentiometer), the default setting is 4 mA ...
20 mA for remote control systems produced by other manufacturers
y Nominal value processing via the “Nominal speed up” (BE 5)/“Nominal speed
down” (BE 6) binary inputs.
The nominal speed can be adjusted between idling speed and maximum
speed. Briefly activating the appropriate optocoupler input for less than 1 s
(configurable, tset > 0.5 s selected) increases or decreases the nominal speed
by a fixed value (1 rpm is standard).
When the input is activated for more than 1 s, the nominal speed is adjusted
automatically at a configurable rate (50 rpm per second is standard).
Response on switching (“Switch nominal speed”):
Analog @ Up/down The current analog nominal speed is maintained on switching over and
can be changed with the up/down keys
Up/down @ Analog The speed is set to the given analog value
-- 08.98 -- E 531 685 / 01 E

Part 1
1.2.9 Recirculating ETC control
The exhaust turbochargers (ETCs) supply the diesel engine with the quantity of air
required for combustion at overpressure. This results in a higher degree of efficiency and
increased engine performance.
The ETC control has an optimum charging effect over a broad power band.
ETC 1 does not switch. It serves as the basic charger as soon as the engine is running.
The speed of ETC 1 is measured via speed input DME 1.
ETC 1 overspeed protection:
The engine speed is reduced to protect the ETC in case of ETC overspeeding.
ETC switching for ETC 2:
ETC 2 cuts in or out depending on the operating point.
Possible switching criteria (configurable) are:

y Engine speed
y ETC 1 speed
ETC 2 is cut in and out by opening and closing a hydraulically-actuated ETC switching
valve. The ETC switching valve is activated by a solenoid valve controlled by Engine Con-
trol Unit ECU 4.
Recirculation
Turbocharger efficiency is increased by diverting a part of the compressed (“charged”) air

to the exhaust channel at certain speeds. This process is referred to as “recirculation”. It is
initiated by activating the recirculation valve.
The two switching valves are activated by the transistor outputs TAM 1 (switching valve
ETC 1) and TAM 2 (recirculation valve).
E 531 685 / 01 E -- 08.98 --

Part 1
1.2.10 Cylinder cutout
Cylinder cutout controlled by Engine Control Unit ECU 4 switches off the fuel supply to the
injection valves of individual cylinders in certain operating ranges. During low-load opera-
tion, this results in engine operation involving little smoke emission and favourable con-
sumption.
Engine Control Unit ECU 4 activates and deactivates cylinder cutout under normal operat-
ing conditions depending on the engine operating point.
The plant signal “Cylinder cutout off” (binary input BE 2) prevents switching. The engine
runs on all cylinders (cylinder cutout off) as long as this signal is active.
1.3 Start and stop functions
1.3.1 Engine start
The start sequence is controlled by the LOP.
Reference documentation:
The start sequence is described in “Local Operating Panel LOP for MTU/DDC
Series 4000”, Documentation Part 1, document no. E 531 687.
Engine Control Unit ECU 4 commences injection as soon as the starter has run the
engine up to a defined speed threshold and no stop command has been received from the
plant.
The engine can be started by

y Superordinate Monitoring and Control System MCS in Remote mode
y LOP in Local mode (Local signal active)
Additional signals may also be checked in the LOP as a requirement for initiating the start
sequence.
-- 08.98 -- E 531 685 / 01 E

Part 1
1.3.2 Emergency engine start
An emergency start function is incorporated in the LOP. This starts the engine in emer-
gency situations without regard to the normal starting requirements. Exception: The
engine must be ready for operation and no external start interlock may be active.
The emergency start sequence is described in “Local Operating Panel LOP for
MTU/DDC Series 4000”, Documentation Part 1, document no. E 531 687.
The emergency start function is activated by an external key.
1.3.3 Engine stop
The engine is stopped by an external stop command (plant signal BE 1) or an automatic

shutdown by disabling all injection valves and reducing the fuel pressure to zero.
The stop command is output to Engine Control Unit ECU 4 which subsequently shuts off
fuel injection.
The engine stop sequence is described in “Local Operating Panel LOP for
MTU/DDC Series 4000”, Documentation Part 1, document no. E 531 687.
Engine stopping can be tripped by the following assemblies and systems:

y Superordinate Monitoring and Control System MCS in Remote mode
y Local Operating Panel LOP in Local mode (only when the “Local” signal is
active)
y Safety system in case of limit value violations (safety system engine stop com-
mands are ignored and not output to Engine Control Unit ECU 4 when the
“Safety system override” signal is active at Local Operating Panel LOP).
E 531 685 / 01 E -- 08.98 --

Part 1
1.3.4 Emergency engine stop
An emergency stop is executed unconditionally when an emergency stop signal is

detected.
The emergency shutdown is controlled by the LOP.

In the case of an automatic emergency shutdown (overspeeding), an emergency stop signal
is transmitted from Engine Control Unit ECU 4 (plant signal TAA 1) to the LOP which then
activates the emergency shutdown.
Depending on the accessories fitted on the engine, emergency stopping is realized by:
y De-energizing Engine Control Unit ECU 4
y Activating the shut down air flap(s)
An engine stop signal is simultaneously output at the LOP with the emergency stop signal.
The emergency engine stop sequence is described in “Local Operating
Panel LOP for MTU/DDC Series 4000”, Documentation Part 1, document no.
E 531 687.
An emergency engine stop can be tripped by the following assemblies and systems:
y Superordinate Monitoring and Control System MCS
y Local Operating Panel LOP
y Safety system in case of limit value violations (overspeeding)
1.3.5 Safety system override
The override function is activated at the superordinate Monitoring and Control System
MCS and executed by the Local Operating Panel LOP. Engine Control Unit ECU 4 logs
the safety system override status.
The safety system override feature is described in “Local Operating
Panel LOP for MTU/DDC Series 4000”, Documentation Part 1, document no.

The engine is protected by an integral engine protection system. It monitors the engine
operating values.
When limit values are reached, the engine protection system

y Protects the engine from assuming critical operating states
y Warns operating personnel via a connected Monitoring and Control System
y Temporarily adapts operation to the remaining possibilities
Depending on the values which are measured, warnings, start interlocks, power reduction,
engine shutdown by reducing feeding or closing the shut down air flaps take place.
Possible activities of the engine protection system are:

y Fault message output
y Alarm output
y Dynamic feeding limitation
y Engine stop by feeding reduction
y Emergency engine stop by activating emergency shutdown
If the engine protection system detects failure of a sensor signal, a fault message is output
via the Monitoring and Control System.
E 531 685 / 01 E -- 08.98 --

Part 1
The activities of the engine protection system allow Engine Control Unit ECU 4 to maintain
engine operation or emergency engine operation.
Safety shutdowns
Safety shutdowns to protect the diesel engine take effect when the limit values of the fol-
lowing measuring points are violated:
y Engine speed
y Engine lube oil pressure
y Coolant temperature (configurable)
y Coolant level (configurable)
Refer to the measuring point list for details of the order-specific configuration data.
1.4.2 Integral Test System (ITS)
The Integral Test System ITS monitors all important functions of Engine Control Unit
ECU 4:
y Electronics of the actual engine governor inside Engine Control Unit ECU 4
y Sensors
y Actuators
y Bus communication
y Power supply
The ITS detects any faults as they occur, pinpoints and signals them to the superordinate
Monitoring and Control System MCS and hence the operator by combined alarm, internal
display and CAN bus.
Any faults which occur are saved for evaluation at a later date. They can be read out with
the dialog unit.
-- 08.98 -- E 531 685 / 01 E

Part 1
Fault messages are stored in two memories:

y Chronological memory
The fault messages are stored in chronological order of their occurrance or
cancellation together with the operating hours counter reading in a ring
memory. The ring memory saves the last 80 setting/resetting procedures.
y Statistical memory
The occurrance of fault messages is registered in a statistical memory. Each
fault message number can be registered up to a maximum of 10000 times.
1.4.2.1 Monitoring the electronics of Engine Control Unit ECU 4
The hardware and software of Engine Control Unit ECU 4 has been designed to detect
faults in the electronics, to respond to them and to indicate appropriately.
The internal housing temperature of Engine Control Unit ECU 4 is monitored. Should it
rise above a (configurable) limit value, the fault is signalled to the superordinate Monitor-
ing and Control System MCS via the combined alarm output and the CAN bus.
1.4.2.2 Monitoring the sensors/actuators
The sensor and actuator channels of the engine control system are designed to tolerate
faults (e.g. short-circuit proof) as far as possible.
Faults such as line interruption, short-circuit etc. are detected by a plausibility check and
indicated to the superordinate Monitoring and Control System MCS.
1.4.2.3 Monitoring bus communication
Bus communication is monitored by a plausibility and timeout check. Any faults which are
detected are indicated by a combined alarm and signalled to the system via the CAN bus
if possible.

3.2.3.1 Checking firm seating of all connectors

Ident. no.: A-P-ECU-0012
Engine Control Unit ECU 4 (27/1) is

located on the end of the engine (auxiliary
PTO end).There are up to 5 connectors
3 (27/4) on the side of the housing (depend-
ing on engine equipment). The sixth
socket (27/3) is used to connect a dialog
unit and is closed off by a covering cap
during normal engine operation.
All other sockets which are not in use are

4 also closed off by a covering cap.
Proceed as follows to check firm seating

of the connectors on Engine Control Unit
ECU 4:
1. Attempt to turn the bayonet union nuts

(27/2) of the connectors on the side
gently by hand
2. If they move, tighten the bayonet
union nut (27/2) concerned by turning
it clockwise with connector pliers (see
fig. 28)
2 All electrical assemblies on the engine

1 (sensors, solenoid valves, final control
elements etc.) are connected to the
Fig. 27 : Connectors on Engine Control Unit engine cable harness by various plug con-
ECU 4 nections. Check firm seating of these plug
connections as well and plug them in and
secure them as required.
Fig. 28 : Connector pliers
-- 08.98 -- E 531 685 / 01 E

Part 3
3.2.3.2 Checking firm seating of cables

The cables on MTU/DDC series 4000

engines are routed in one or more cable
harnesses (depending on electrical equip-
ment). The cables are protected against
damage by plastic tubing (29/3). This tub-
1
ing is secured to the engine.
2
1. Check that the cable harnesses are
secured to the engine in their fixtures
(29/1) and do not hang free;
secure any loose cables in a suitable
manner
2. Check that the fixture fastening bolts
(29/2) are tight. Otherwise tighten
them using a suitable tool
3
3. Check for loose cable ties and fit new
cable ties as necessary

E 531 685 / 01 E -- 08.98 --

Part 3
3.2.3.3 Checking screwed sensor connections for leaks

The sensors on MTU/DDC series 4000 engines are screwed into the mechanical assem-
blies on the engine (pressure sensors, temperature sensors, speed sensors). Check the
screwed connections of these sensors for leaks.
1. Locate the sensor

2. Check for pressure medium leakage
at the sealing surface between engine
and sensor flange (liquid media leave
a trail);
tighten the screwed sensor connec-
tions with a suitable tool (open-end
wrench)
3. If it is not possible to seal off the
screwed connection in this way,
remove the sensor and fit a new seal
Fig. 30 : Example of a screwed sensor

connection
Sensor installation is described in the engine documentation. Consult this
manual before removing a sensor.
Please note that screwed level sensor connections are fitted with
an extremely low tightening torque. Excessive tightening destroys
this type of sensor. Refer to the engine description for details of
tightening torques.
CAUTION

Part 3
3.2.3.4 Checking cables

1 Insulate damaged cabling immediately or

replace if severely damaged.
1. Inspect all engine cables

2. If the outer insulating sheath is dam-
aged and individual wires are visible
2
(example 31/1), it is sufficient to tape
up the cable with insulating tape pro-
viding that none of the individual wires
are damaged
3. If individual wires are bare or broken,
the cable harness (or the affected
part) must be replaced (example 31/2)
4. Check continuity in accordance with
the tables in Appendix A of this
manual. To do this, disconnect the
appropriate Engine Control Unit
Fig. 31 : Examples of damaged cabling
ECU 4 connector (see page 58) and
the connector on the assembly on the
engine (e.g. on a sensor). Short this connection then use a multimeter to check the electri-
cal connection between the appropriate pins in the connector of the ECU.
Example:
To check the cable connecting the speed sensor on the camshaft to the ECU:
y Disconnect connector X2 on Engine Control Unit ECU 4
y Disconnect the connector on the camshaft speed sensor, short these two con-
tacts with a strap
y Check continuity between pins T and n in connector X2 using a multimeter
y The cable in the cable harness is defective if there is no connection and the
cable harness must be replaced

3.3.2 Faults with fault code display
In addition to the alarm messages on the Monitoring and Control System MCS-5, fault
codes are also indicated on a four-figure display on the printed circuit board in Engine
Control Unit ECU 4.
The fault code display has the following structure:
24 V --15 V +5 V +15 V Four-figure seven-segment display
Fig. 34 : LEDs and display in Engine Control Unit ECU 4
The four figures are defined as follows:

y The first figure indicates that a fault has occurred
(the example in fig. 34 shows: ))
y The second to fourth figures on the display indicate the three-figure fault code
(see table below, the example in fig. 34 shows: )
Open the housing cover to read off the display on the printed circuit board in
Engine Control Unit ECU 4 (see page 99).
-- 08.98 -- E 531 685 / 01 E

Part 3
Function may be impaired!

Excessive dirt in the ECU may impair operation of the engine
management system.
For this reason, the ECU must be closed again after reading off
CAUTION the display or finishing repair work. Ensure that the surface of the
seal is clean and that the cover is seated correctly.
Make sure that the interior of the housing is dry (no conden-
sation etc.) before closing!
The table below lists the fault codes and the appropriate measures for rectification.
Measures for fault rectification listed for the individual fault codes are described
in the chapter on “Repair”.

3.3.3 Faults indicated by LEDs
The following voltages are monitored on the printed circuit board in Engine Control Unit
ECU 4:
y +24 VDC supply voltage
y +15 VDC (internal)
y --15 VDC (internal)
y +5 VDC (internal)
Faulty supply voltages are also indicated by fault codes (providing that Engine
Control Unit ECU is still operating) (see chap. 3.3.2). The following fault code
numbers are relevant: 118 ¤ 121, 133 ¤ 138, 145, 245 and 260 ¤ 262.
The state of the processor is indicated by:

y RESET/STOP
The processor system is RESET to a defined state. The engine is shut down.
Replace Engine Control Unit ECU 4 if one of the internal supply voltages is missing (the
corresponding LED is dark in this case). This also applies when the processor automati-
cally assumes the RESET/STOP state when the entire PCS-5 is switched off and back on
again.

Check the bus terminators and all device connections if results deviate.
The two resistors at Engine Control Unit ECU 4 are integrated in the system
cable.
Rectify any faults which are detected as follows:

y Loose terminals:
-- Tighten screw terminals with a screwdriver, replace damaged or loose wire
end ferrules
-- Release spring cage terminals with the actuator tool and insert the wires
correctly; then remove the actuator tool
y Short-circuits to ground (GND):
-- Remove fine shielding wires, twist the braided shield tight, insulate with
shrink-fit hose and then connect it
Should the suspicion arise that a unit is faulty, disconnect all bus connections at the unit
concerned and jumper it provisionally with wire straps (check polarity, see appropriate
documentation!). Then conduct the tests listed above once more. If this returns correct
values, check and repair or replace the unit which has been bypassed.
-- 08.98 -- E 531 685 / 01 E

Part 4
4.5.1.2 Checking and repairing shielding

Check the following points concerning bus shielding:

y The bus shielding must be connected to the appropriate terminals on every
unit.
y Inputs and outputs must not be directly interconnected. They must be routed
into and out of the unit via the appropriate connectors or terminals.
y Shielding must not be connected to ship’s ground except at the points specifi-
cally provided for this.
The bus cable itself should not be routed too close to any units which create strong
magnetic fields. Examples are:
y Monitors
y Transformers
y Voltage converters
y HT power supply leads
y Radio systems
y Microwave units
Should bus malfunctions occur at irregular intervals, check whether switching on other
electrical equipment has an influence on the bus. If this is the case, suitable measures
must be taken to eliminate this interference.
This may involve re-routing the bus cable or using a different cable. Consult the MTU ser-
vice department in this case.

Part 5
5 Illustrated parts catalog
5.1 Introduction
This illustrated parts catalog forms the basis for spare parts orders.
The drawings and tables in the parts catalog are also useful when dismantling and
re-assembling individual assemblies. For this reason, the catalog also includes parts for
which no spare parts provision has been made.
This parts catalog consists of drawings and corresponding tables as well as a cross-
reference list.
Drawings and tables
The headers of the pages with drawings and tables contain the following information:
y CATALOG (parts catalog number)
y ILL. TABLE (four-figure drawing number)
y REG. NO. (six-figure registration number)
y GAPL (name of the corresponding group in German) and
EGC (name in the corresponding foreign language)
y PROJECT
y PAGE
y EDITION
y REFERENCE (superordinate parts list)
The contents of the headers on the drawing and table pages differ only in their page num-
bers (PAGE). All other information is identical.
The table title row contains the following information:

y C/N Location numbers provide a connection between the
components in the drawings and the parts numbers and
designations in the corresponding table.
The location numbers are sorted in a rising numerical
sequence.
y PART NO. The part number of the component to be used when
ordering spare parts
-- 08.98 -- E 531 685 / 01 E

Part 5
y DESIGNATION This cell contains the exact parts name.

A part whose designation is indented to the right in this
column (indicated by preceding dots) is included in a
previous part (which is either not indented or is less
indented).
y Q/U Quantity in location. This number applies to the installation
location.
y U/M Unit of measurement for the named part
EA = Each KG = Kilogram MR = Meter
RL = Roll SE = Set
y FN Footnote with references for spare parts queries

The following footnotes may be used:
AB Only available as a complete assembly, repairs only possible in the
manufacturer’s plant
KE Individual part not intended for delivery as a spare part
KF Volume production part only available as a spare part with this part
number in uncalibrated condition. If this spare part is required ready-
calibrated for a specific application, such a part will be delivered under
a different part number. (Please refer to “Ordering spare parts” when
ordering a spare part marked with KF.)
NB As required
y SUPPLEM. DES./ This column contains standard part designations or

REMARKS manufacturer’s designations for bought-out parts.
y ILL.-REG. This column gives the cross-reference to a drawing if
this component is illustrated in its own drawing.
y ITEM For internal use only
Cross-reference list
The cross-reference list includes all part numbers contained in the spare parts catalog.
The part numbers are sorted in a rising numerical sequence in the part number column. In
addition, the DESIGNATION, ILL.-REG., ITEM, C/N and, in some cases, the STOCK NO.
and PART NO. NEW are listed for each part number.
Modification service
No modification service is provided to take account of conversions and modifications to

part numbers subsequent to the completion of the spare parts catalog. We therefore
recommend that you mark information about changes to part numbers in the spare parts
catalog. This information is included in the order confirmation and appears on spare parts
labels.
E 531 685 / 01 E -- 08.98 --

Part 5
Ordering spare parts
The following information is required in order to process a spare parts order:

y Job number
y Engine type (see rating plate)
y Engine number (see rating plate)
y Part number
y Designation
y Production number and unit of measurement
y Device name (e. g. A 056)
The following additional information is required in an order for a calibrated part (marked by
“KF” in the “FN” column):
Either
y Add additional text “ /xxxxx” to the part number
(e. g.: 002 536 28 10/E1234; E1234 corresponds to the calibration number of
the device on the marking plate)
or
y Detailed description of the application location for the required spare part and
“/77” or “/78” after the part number (if the calibration number is not known)
Note: A calibrated spare part is delivered under a different part number!
The following additional information is needed when ordering a non-calibrated adjustable

part which should not be calibrated by the factory (marked by “KF” in the “FN” column):
y Add “/76” to the part number
(e. g.: 002 536 28 10/76)
To avoid errors, please confirm all telephone orders in writing.
Delivery of repaired parts
Parts sent to MTU Friedrichshafen for repair must be clearly marked with the MTU order
number and engine number.
