    MAN B&W Reversing

    Uploaded by

    The fuel pump cam on MAN B&W MC series engines is designed to keep the plunger at the top of its stroke until just before the next injection stroke. If the engine direction is reversed, air will enter the pneumatic cylinder and move the cam follower across to the correct position for fuel injection when running astern. A microswitch detects if the follower fails to move during reversal, and an alarm would sound if the engine was started without the follower moving into the proper position.

    If the engine direction is reversed at this point, then air will enter the
    pneumatic cylinder as shown and will move the piston to the right. The
