How the Operating Instruction Manual

is organized, and how to use it
1.3
Instructions for use
The operating manual contains written and illustrated information that is

both generally useful and specially significant. This information is thought
to supplement the knowledge and faculties which the persons have who
are entrusted with
- the operation,
- the control and supervision,
- the maintenance and repair
of the engine. The conventional knowledge and practical experience alone
will not be adequate.
The operating instructions should be made available to these persons. The
people in charge have the task to familiarise themselves with the
composition of the operating manual so that they are able to find the
necessary information without lengthy searching.
We attempt to render assistance by a clearly organised composition and
by a clear diction of the texts.
Structure and special features
The operating instruction manual mainly consists of the sections

Introduction
Technical details
Operation/Operating media,
Maintenance/Repair, and
Annex
The operating manual is limited to the vital subjects. It mainly focuses on:
- Understanding the functions/coherences;

- Starting and stopping the engine,
operating it in routine and emergency modes;
- Planning engine operation, controlling it in compliance with operating

results and economic criteria,
ensuring operational prerequisites on the engine and the peripheral
systems,
selecting, preparing and treating operating media and
- Maintaining the operability of the engine,
carrying out preventive or scheduled maintenance work,
doing unsophisticated repair work, and contracting and supervising
more difficult work.

The manual does not deal with:
- The moving, erection and dismantling of the engine or major

components of it,
- Steps and checks when putting the engine into operation for the first
time,
- Difficult repair work requiring special tools, facilities and experience and
the
- Behaviour after fire, inrush of water, severe damage and average.
What is also of importance
The sheet Scope of supply
The content of the operating manual and structural details of it can be

seen at a glance from the table of contents. We would like to draw your
particular attention to the sheet Scope of supply in Section 2. The sheet
named Scope of supply lists and briefly describes all the items that were
supplied by MAN B&W Diesel AG. This sheet shows for which
components you may expect to receive assistance and spare parts
supplies from us. This is the scope to which our information, our
maintenance schedules and specifications refer to. Where problems are
encountered with systems for which we have supplied but a few items, it
will possibly be more helpful to consult the system supplier directly, unless
MAN B&Ws scope of supply is mainly concerned, or similar, obvious
reasons apply.
Engine design
The operating manual will be continually updated, and matched to the

design of the engine as ordered. There may nevertheless be deviations
between the sheets of a primiarily describing/illustrating content and the
definite design.
Technical details
Technical details of your engine are included in
the printed brief description in Section 5,

the installation drawing included in Volume E1,
the Technical details in Section 2,
in the work cards in Volume B2, and
the test run or commissioning certificate included in Volume B5.
All the documentation is specially matched to your particular engine, with

the exception of the printed brief description.
The maintenance schedule is closely related to the work cards of Volume
B2. The work cards describe how a job is to be done, and which tools and
facilities are required for doing it. The maintenance schedule, on the other
hand, gives the periodical intervals and the average requirements in
personnel and time.

Lube oil system
2.4.6
Lubrication of the engine and turbocharger
All the lubricating points of the engine and of the turbocharger are
connected to the forced--feed oil circulation system. The lube oil admission
flange (2171) is at the free engine end, above the casing. The oil is from
the cast--in/frame--integrated distributor pipe supplied to the main bearings
via the tierod pipes. From there it continues through the crankshaft to the
big end bearings and through the connecting rods to the piston crowns
(Figure 1), and also to the torsional vibration damper at the free engine
end. The locating bearing at the coupling end receives oil from the last
bearing pedestal.

From all these lubricating points, the oil flows freely back into the oil sump,
and from the oil sump into the lube oil tank underneath.
The integrated distributor pipe also supplies oil to
- the camshaft bearings of the injection and valve camshafts, and

- the spray nozzles and bearings of the camshaft drive.
The oil ducts required for supplying oil to the camshafts continue above
the camshafts, where short lube oil pipes are connected which serve the
- rocker arms on the exhaust side, and

- the fuel oil pumps and control levers on the exhaust gas counterside.

Figure 2. Lube oil system (survey)
The thrust bearing of the injection camshaft (arranged at the free engine
end, and on engines without injection time adjusting device at the coupling
end) is externally supplied with oil. The same pipeline is used for the
lubrication of engine--driven pumps. The control plungers and locating
bearings of the camshaft adjusting devices at the coupling end are also
externally supplied from separate pipes. The same applies to the bearings
of the turbocharger. The supply pipes for these subassemblies are
connected to the integrated distributor pipe.
Supply from the outside
The lube oil system has to be equipped with a pressure control valve at
the entry side to maintain a constant oil pressure at the entry into the
engine, independently of the speed and oil temperature. The oil admission
to the turbocharger is adjusted by means of a pressure--reducing valve or
an orifice plate.

Supply to the turbocharger
6628
2.4.6--02 E
Marine propulsion engines, particularly those with mechanically driven lube

oil pumps, have turbochargers that are equipped with an emergency
lubrication system to ensure adequate lube oil supply to the turbocharger
as it continues running on stop events and in the case of blackout. The
bearings of NR turbochargers are during the boosting phase supplied with
oil from a bladder--type accumulator whose bladder is filled with nitrogen
and which is in the compressed state during normal operation. When the
service pressure is decreasing, oil is supplied to the turbocharger by the
effect of the compressed bladder, while a non--return valve prevents the oil
from flowing back into the supply pipe. Please refer to Figure 5.

Figure 5. Emergency lubrication of the turbocharger (marine propulsion engines)

from a bladder accumulator
The main lubricating pump, or alternatively a smaller secondary pump can

be used to lubricate the turbocharger prior to the engine start, please refer
to Figure 6. It must be ensured by appropriate timing of the pump and by
system matching that excess lubrication of the turbocharger during priming
and in service is avoided.
R Oil to the engine

Figure 6. Priming of the turbocharger using a secondary pump
Cylinder lubrication
The running surfaces of the cylinder liners are primarily lubricated by

splash oil and oil vapour from the crank case. Lubrication of the piston
rings is from below, through bores in the lower part of the cylinder liner. To
minimise the oil consumption rate, a geometry has been chosen which
provides for the oil bores to be covered by the top ring land in BDC
position of the piston, and by the piston skirt in TDC position. The oil
comes from the free engine end and is supplied to the cylinder liners from
the exhaust gas counterside, through the frame diaphragm. The pipes are
supported in openings underneath the injection camshaft.

The necessary oil pressure is generated by a pump set (1) (Figure 8). The
delivery volume can be matched to the engine size/number of cylinders by
adjusting the speed of the frequency--controlled motor.
Generation of pressure/
distribution of oil
The suction pipe B of the pump is connected to the lube oil admission pipe
A which supplies oil to the engine and turbocharger. An adjustable
pressure control valve is provided on the delivery side of the pump. The
flow of oil to the lubricating points is controlled by means of a hydraulic
block--type distributor (3).
The movements of the block--type distributor main piston are controlled by
an inductive proximity switch (7) and a pulse evaluating unit (8). A
predetermined number of pulses must be received within a certain unit of
time.

Temperature monitoring of main bearings
The temperatures of the crankshaft bearings (and of the outboard bearing)

are measured at the bearing caps immediately underneath the bearing
shells. Resistance temperature sensors (Pt 100) in oil--tight mountings
serve this purpose. The measuring lines run inside the crankcase up to
cable duct level on the exhaust side, from where they are taken to external
terminal boxes.

2 Main bearing cap
3 Temperature sensor
Figure 9. Temperature monitoring of main bearings
Oil mist detector
Incipient bearing damage, piston seizure or blowby from the combustion

space cause pronounced oil vapour formation. The oil mist detector
permits a reliable diagnosis before severe damage occurs. The oil mist
detector controls the oil vapour concentration, or say the opacity of air in
the crankcase. A jet pump continually draws air from all parts of the
crankcase, bigger droplets of oil are removed from the air, and the air is
passed through a measuring section equipped with infrared filters. The
diode provided at the end produces an electric signal that corresponds to
the quantity of light received, and transmits this signal to the monitoring
unit.
Please refer to the brochure included in volume D of the technical
documentation.

Quality requirements
for heavy fuel oil (HFO)
3.3.3
Prerequisites
MAN B&W four-stroke engines can be operated on any crude-oil based

heavy fuel oil provided the engine and the fuel treatment plant are
designed accordingly. In order to ensure a well-balanced relation between
the costs for fuel, spare parts and maintenance and repair work, we
recommed bearing in mind the following points.
Heavy fuel oil (HFO)
Provenance/refining process
The quality of the heavy fuel oil is largely determined by the crude oil
grade (provenance) and the refining process applied. This is the reason
why heavy fuel oils of the same viscosity may differ considerably,
depending on the bunker places. Heavy fuel oil normally is a mixture of
residue oil and distillates. The components of the mixture usually come
from state-of-the-art refining processes such as visbreaker or catalytic
cracking plants. These processes may have a negative effect on the
stability of the fuel and on its ignition and combustion properties. In the
essence, these factors also influence the heavy fuel oil treatment and the
operating results of the engine.
Bunker places where heavy fuel oil grades of standardised quality are
offered should be given preference. If fuels are supplied by independent
traders, it is to be made sure that these, too, keep to the international
specifications. The responsibility for the choice of appropriate fuels rests
with the engine operator.
Mineral oil companies have internally established specifications for heavy
fuel oils, and experience shows that these specifications are observed
worldwide and are within the limits of international specifications (e.g. ISO
8217, CIMAC, British Standards MA-100). As a rule, the engine builders
expect that fuels satisfying these specifications are being used.
Specifications
The fuel specifications (Table 1) are categorized by viscosity and grade,

and make allowance for the lowest-grade crude oil offered worldwide and
for the most unfavourable refining processes. The specifications have
been coordinated between the International Standard Organisation (ISO),
the British Standards Institute (BSI), the association of engine builders
(CIMAC) and the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS).
The admixing of engine oils (used oils), of non-mineral oil constituents
(such as coal oil) and of residual products from refining or other processes
(such as solvents) is not permitted. The reasons are, for example: the
abrasive and corrosive effects, the adverse combustion properties, a poor
compatibility with mineral oils and, last but not least, the negative
environmental effects. The order letter for the fuel should expressly
mention what is prohibited, as this constraint has not yet been
incorporated in the commonly applied fuel specifications.
Blends
The admixing of engine oil (used oil) to the fuel involves a substantial
danger because the lube oil additives have an emulsifying effect and keep

dirt, water and catfines finely suspended. Therefore, they impede or

preclude the necessary cleaning of the fuel. We ourselves and others have
made the experience that severe damage induced by wear may occur to
the engine and turbocharger components as a result.
The admixing of chemical waste materials (such as solvents) to the fuel is
for reasons of environmental protection prohibited by resolution of the IMO
Marine Environment Protection Committee of 1 Jan. 92.
Leaked oil collectors into which leaked oil and residue pipes as well as
overflow pipes of the lube oil system, in particular, must not have any
connection to fuel tanks. Leaked oil collectors should empty into sludge
tanks.

Tabelle 2. Fuel oil specifications and associated characteristic values
Legend to Table 2
Refer to supplementary remarks in Section ...
The heavy fuel oils ISO F--RMK 35/45/55, with a maximum density of 1010
kg/m, can only be used if appropriate modern separators are available.
In the fuel ordering form, the limit values as per Table 2, which have an
influence on the engine operation, should be specified, for example in the
bunkering or charter clause. Please note the entries in the last column of
Table 2, because they provide important background information.
Supplementary remarks
The following remarks are thought to outline the relations between heavy
fuel oil grade, heavy fuel oil treatment, engine operation and operating
results.
1. Selection of heavy fuel oil
Economic operation on heavy fuel oil with the limit values specified in
Table 2 is possible under normal service conditions, with properly working
systems and regular maintenance. Otherwise, if these requirements are
not met, shorter TBOs (times between overhaul), higher wear rates and a
higher demand in spare parts must be expected. Alternatively, the
6680
3.3.3--01 E
01.00
General
103/ 09
necessary maintenance intervals and the operating results expected

determine the decision as to which heavy fuel oil grade should be used.
It is known that as viscosity increases, the price advantage decreases
more and more. It is therefore not always economical to use the highest
viscosity heavy fuel oil, which in numerous cases means the lower quality
grades.
Heavy fuel oils ISO--RMB/C 10 or CIMAC B10 ensure reliable operation of
older engines, which were not designed for the heavy fuel oils that are
currently available on the market. ISO--RMA 10 or CIMAC A10 with a low
pour point should be preferred in cases where the bunker system cannot
be heated.
2. Viscosity/injection viscosity
Heavy fuel oils if having a higher viscosity may be of lower qualtiy. The
maximum permissible viscosity depends on the existing preheating
equipment and the separator rating (throughput).
The specified injection viscosity and/or fuel oil temperature upstream of
the engine should be adhered to. Only then will an appropriate atomisation
and proper mixing, and hence a low-residue combustion be possible.
Besides, mechanical overloading of the injection system will be prevented.
The specified injection viscosity and/or the necessary fuel oil temperature
upstream of the engine can be seen from the viscosity/temperature
diagram.
3. Heavy fuel oil treatment
Trouble-free engine operation depends, to a large extent, on the care
which is given to heavy fuel oil treatment. Particular care should be taken
that inorganic, foreign particles with their strong abrasive effect (catalyst
residues, rust, sand) are effectively separated. It has shown in practice
that with the aluminium content > 10 mg/kg abrasive wear in the engine
strongly increases.
The higher the viscosity of the heavy fuel oil, the higher will the density
and the foreign particles concentration be, according to our experience.
The viscosity and density will influence the cleaning effect, which has to be
taken into consideration when designing and setting the the cleaning
equipment.
Settling tank
The heavy fuel oil is preceleaned in the settling tank. This precleaning is
all the more effective the longer the fuel remains in the tank and the lower
the viscosity of the heavy fuel oil is (maximum preheating temperature
75C to prevent formation of asphalt in the heavy fuel oil). One settling
tank will generally be sufficient for heavy fuel oil viscosities below 380
mm2/s at 50C. If the concentration of foreign matter in the heavy fuel oil is
excessive, or if a grade according to CIMAC H/K35, H/K45 or H/K55 is
preferred, two settling tanks will be required, each of which must be
adequately rated to ensure trouble-free settling within a period of not less
than 24 hours. Prior to separating the content into the service tank, the
water and sludge have to be drained from the settling tank.
Separators
A centrifugal separator is a suitable device for extracting material of higher

specific gravity, such as water, foreign particles and sludge. The
separators currently used are of the self-cleaning type (i.e. with
automatically induced cleaning intervals).
Cleaning equipment other than centrifugal separators cannot be agreed to.
Separators of the new generation are to be used exclusively; they are fully
efficient over a large density range without requiring any switchover, and
6680
3.3.3--01 E
01.00
General
104/ 09
are capable of separating water up to a heavy fuel oil density of 1.01 g/ml
at 15C. The cleaning effect is automatically controlled by the separator.
Table 3 shows what is essential in designing the heavy fuel oil cleaning
equipment.
It is common practise to use the stand-by separator for heavy fuel oil
cleaning as well, which allows fuel oil separation at a 50% admission rate.
Attention is to be paid to very thorough water separation, since the water
is not a finely distributed emulsion but in the form of adversely large
droplets. Water in this form promotes corrosion and sludge formation also
in the fuel system, which has an adverse effect on the delivery and
atomisation and thus also on the combustion of the heavy fuel oil. If the
water involved is sea water, harmful sodium chloride and other salts
dissolved in the water will enter the engine.
Water
The water-containing sludge must be removed from the settling tank prior
to each separating process, and at regular intervals from the service tank.
The venting system of the tanks must be designed in such a way that
condensate cannot flow back into the tanks.
Should the vanadium/sodium ratio be unfavourable, the melting
temperature of the heavy fuel oil ash may drop into the range of the
exhaust valve temperature which will result in high-temperature corrosion.
By precleaning the heavy fuel oil in the settling tank and in the centrifugal
separators, the water, and with it the water-soluble sodium compounds
can be largely removed.
Vanadium/sodium
If the sodium content is lower than 30% of the vadium content, the risk of
high-temperature corrosion will be small. It must also be prevented that
sodium in the form of sea water enters the engine together with the intake
air.
If the sodium content is higher than 100 mg/kg, an increase of salt
deposits is to be expected in the combustion space and in the exhaust
system. This condition will have an adverse effect on engine operation
(among others, due to surging of the turbocharger). The content of sodium
of engines with PTG has to be limited to 50 mg/kg.
Under certain conditions, high-temperature corrosion may be prevented by
a fuel additive that raises the melting temperature of the heavy fuel oil ash
(also refer to item 12).
Ash
Heavy fuel oils with a high ash content in the form of foreign particles such
as sand, corrosion and catalyst residues, promote the mechanical wear in
the engine. There may be catalyst fines (catfines) in heavy fuel oils coming
from catalytic cracking processes. In most cases, these catfines will be
aluminium silicate, which causes high wear in the injection system and in
the engine. The aluminium content found multiplied by 58 (depending on
the catalyst composition) will approximately correspond to the content of
catalyst materials in the heavy fuel oil.
Separators
In case of a high content of foreign matter, it is recommended to preclean

the heavy fuel oil in settling tanks. The separators connected downstream
are to be operated with the least possible throughout.
If a homogenizer is used, it must not be installed between the settling tank
and the separator on any account, since in that case, harmful contaminants, and in particular seawater, cannot be separated out sufficiently.

Layout of the separators is to be in accordance with the latest

recommendations of the separator manufacturers, Alfa Laval and
Westfalia. In particular, the density, viscosity and content of solid matter in
the heavy fuel oil are to be taken into consideration. Consulting MAN B&W
Diesel AG is required if other makes of separators come up for discussion.
If the cleaning treatment prescribed by MAN B&W Diesel AG is applied,
and if the separators are correctly set, it can be expected that the results
given in Table 3 below for water and inorganic foreign particles in the
heavy fuel oil are reached at the entry into the engine.
The results obtained in practical operation reveal that adherence to the
above values helps to particularly keep abrasive wear in the injection
system and in the engine within acceptable limits. Besides, optimal lube oil
treatment must be ensured.

4. Flash point (ASTMD-93)

National and international regulations for transport, storage and application
of fuels must be adhered to in respect of the flash point. Generally, a flash
point of above 60C is specified for fuels used in Diesel engines.
5. Low temperature behaviour (ASTM D-97)
The pour point is the temperature at which the fuel is no longer fluid
(pumpable). Since many of the low-viscosity heavy fuel oils have a pour
point greater than 0C, too, the bunkering system has to be preheated
unless fuel in accordance with CIMAC A10 is used. The entire bunkering
system should be designed so as to permit preheating of the heavy fuel oil
to approx. 10C above the pour point. For filter clogging, the cloud point is
of interest.
Pourpoint
Cloudpoint
6. Pumpability
Difficulties will be experienced with pumping if the fuel oil has a viscosity
higher than 1000 mm2/s (cSt) or a termperature less than approx. 10C
above the pour point. Please also refer to item 5.
6680
3.3.3--01 E
01.00
General
106/ 09
7. Combustion properties
An asphalt content higher than 2/3 of the carbon residue (Conradson) may
lead to delayed combustion, which involves increased residue formation,
such as deposits on and in the injection nozzles, increased smoke
formation, reduced power and increased fuel consumption, as well as a
rapid rise of the ignition pressure and combustion close to the cylinder wall
(thermal overloading of the lube oil film). If the ratio of asphaltenes to
carbon residues reaches the limit value 0.66, and the asphaltene content
also exceeds 8%, additional analyses of the heavy fuel oil concerned by
means of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) must be performed by MAN
B&W to evaluate the usability. This tendency will also be promoted by the
blend constituents of the heavy fuel oil being incompatible, or by different
and incompatible bunkerings being mixed together. As a result, there is an
increased separation of asphalt (see also item 10).
8. Ignition quality
Cracked products which nowadays are preferred as low-viscosity blend
constituents of the heavy fuel oil in order to achieve the specified
reference viscosity may have poor ignition qualities. The cetane number of
these constituents should be higher than 35. An increased aromatics
content (above 35%) also leads to a decrease in ignition quality.
Fuel oils of insufficient ignition qualities will show extended ignition lag and
delayed combustion, which may lead to thermal overloading of the oil film
on the cylinder liner and excessive pressures in the cylinder. Ignition lag
and the resultant pressure rise in the cylinder are also influenced by the
final temperature and pressure of compression, i.e. by the compression
ratio, the charge-air pressure and charge--air temperature.
Preheating of the charge-air in the part-load range, output reduction for a
limited period of time, and using a fuel additive are possible measures to
reduce detrimental influences of fuel of poor ignition qualities. More
effective, however, are a high compression ratio and the in-service
matching of the injection system to the ignition qualities of the fuel oil
used, as is the case in MAN B&W trunk piston engines.
The ignition quality is a key property of the fuel. The reason why it does
not appear in the international specifications is the absence of a
standardised testing method. Therefore, parameters such as the
Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index (CCAI) are resorted to as an aid,
which are derived from determinable fuel properties. We have found this to
be an appropriate method of roughly assessing the ignition quality of the
heavy fuel oil used.
As the fluid constituent in the heavy fuel oil is the determining factor for its
ignition quality and the viscous constituent is decisive for the combustion
quality, it is the responsibility of the bunkering company to supply a heavy
fuel oil grade of quality matched to the Diesel engine. Please refer to
Figure 2.
9. Sulphuric acid corrosion
The engine should be operated at the cooling water temperatures
specified in the operating manual for the respective load. If the
temperature of the component surface exposed to the acidic combustion
gases is below the acid dew point, acid corrosion can no longer be
sufficiently prevented even by an alcaline lubricating oil.
If the lube oil quality and engine cooling meet the respective requirements,
the TBN values given in Sheet 6628 3.3.6 will be adequate, depending on
the sulphur concentration in the heavy fuel oil.
6680
3.3.3--01 E
01.00
General
107/ 09
10. Compatibility
The supplier has to guarantee that the heavy fuel oil remains homogenous
and stable even after the usual period of storage. If different bunker oils
are mixed, separation may occur which results in sludge formation in the
fuel system, large quantities of sludge in the separator, clogging of filters,
insufficient atomisation and high-residue combustion.
In such cases, one refers to incompatibility or instability. The heavy fuel oil
storage tanks should therefore be emptied as far as possible prior to
rebunkering in order to preclude incompatibility.
11. Blending heavy fuel oil
If, for instance, heavy fuel for the main engine and gas oil (MGO) are
blended to achieve the heavy fuel oil quality or viscosity specified for the
auxiliary engines, it is essential that the constiuents are compatible (refer
to item 10).

12. Additives to heavy fuel oils
MAN B&W Diesel engines can be economically operated without
additives. It is up to the customer to decide whether or not the use of an
additive would be advantageous. The additive supplier must warrant that
the product use will have no harmful effects on engine operation.

Sampling
To be able to check as to whether the specification indicated and/or the

stipulated delivery conditions have been complied with, we recommend a
minimum of one sample of each bunker fuel to be retained, at least during
the guarantee period for the engine. In order to ensure that the sample is
representative for the oil bunkered, a sample should be drawn from the
transfer pipe at the start, at half the time and at the end of the bunkering
period. Sample Tec, supplied by Messrs Mar-Tec, Hamburg is an
appropriate testing kit for taking samples continuously during the
bunkering.
Analyse samples
The samples received from the bunkering company are frequently not
identical with the heavy fuel oil bunkered. It is also appropriate to verify the
heavy fuel oil properties stated in the bunker documents, such as density,
viscosity, pour point. If these values should deviate from those of the
heavy fuel oil bunkered, one runs the risk that the heavy fuel oil separator
and the preheating temperature are not set correctly for the given injection
viscosity. The criteria for an economic engine operation with regard to
heavy fuel oil and lubricating oil may be determined with the help of the
MAN B&W Fuel and Lub Analysis Set.
Our department for fuels and lube oils (Augsburg Works, Department
QCB) will be glad to furnish further information if required.

Faults/Deficiencies
and their causes (Trouble Shooting)

Explanatory remarks
Trouble shooting with the aid of

Tables 1--3
Tables 1--3 contain a number of potential operating faults and their

possible causes. They are intended to contribute to reliable fault diagnosis
and efficient elimination of their causes.
Break--down
The faults were subdivided into three categories:
- Engine start/engine operation,

- operating values, and
- other problems.
In most cases, the sources/causes of faults cannot be definitely traced in
the first step. There will be several possible causes as a rule. The most
probable one is to be found, making due allowance for
- the appearance,
- the temporal and physical facts, and
- the personal, empirical know--how.
Info and Code columns
The info column contains references to text passages of the operating

instruction manual and to work cards. The code numbers given in the
code column permit the table to be also used under the motto What
happens if ....
Example
The code number 15, for example, appears at three different points in the
tables (marked by -). The meaning behind it: Supposed the injection
timing is too far in the late direction, the following possible effects must
be expected:
- The engine does not reach the full output/speed,

- the exhaust gas temperatures are excessive, and
- the exhaust plume is visible, of dark colour.
Trouble shooting on the
turbocharger
To be noted: The operating instruction manual for the turbocharger

contains its own table for trouble shooting.
Order of entries
The order of entries does not permit to draw conclusions on the probability
of causes. The order rather follows the principle: Causes related to
engine operating media and operating media systems in the first place,
followed by engine, turbocharger, and possibly ship.

Behaviour in case
operating values are exceeded/
alarms are released
3.6.7
General remarks
Operating values/limit values
Operating values, e.g. temperatures, pressures, flow resistances and all

other safety--relevant values/characteristics, must be kept within the range
of nominal values. Limit values must not be exceeded. Binding reference
values are contained in the test run and commissioning records (in
Volume B5) and in the List of measuring and control devices (in
Volume D).
Alarms, reduction and stop

signals
Depending on the extent to which values are exceeded and on the

potential risks, alarms, reduction or stop signals are released for the more
important operating values. This is effected by means of the alarm system
and the safety controls. Reduction signals cause a reduction of the engine
output on vessel plants. This is effected by reducing the pitch of
controllable--pitch propeller plants. Stop signals cause an engine stop.
Behaviour in emergency cases -technical possibilities
Acoustic or visual warnings can be acknowledged. The displays remain

active until the malfunction is eliminated. Reduction or stop signals can in
the case of vessel plants be suppressed by means of the override function
of the valuation ship takes precedence over engine. For stationary
plants, this possibility is not provided. For these, there is also no reducing
function.
Fixing alarm and limit values
For fixing the alarm and the safety--relevant limit values, the requirements
of the classification societies and the own assessment are decisive.
Examples
Stop criteria are, e.g., overspeed, too low lube oil pressure and too high
temperatures of the main bearing. In case the oil mist detector reacts, a
stop is usually effected as well. The occurrence of too high cooling water
temperatures causes a reduction in output of vessel plants.
Legal situation
Alarm, reduction and safety signals serve the purpose of warning against
dangers or of avoiding them. Their causes are to be traced with the
necessary care. The sources of malfunctions are to be eliminated
consistently. They must not be ignored or suppressed, except on
instructions from the management or in cases of a more severe danger.
Caution! Ignoring or suppressing of alarms, the cancellation of
reduction and stop signals is highly dangerous, both for persons
and for the technical equipment.
Liability claims for damages due to exceeded nominal values and
supressed or ignored alarm and safety signals respectively, can in no case
be accepted.
