Disc position of air piston at exhaust valve close timing
ENGINE TYPE: L/S60MC/MC-C
As for some ships equipped with the captioned engine, exhaust gas
temperature at cylinder outlet was found getting higher
After several inspections, exhaust gas leakage through the
incompletely closed exhaust valve was detected.
This has been caused due to the contact of bolt head on air
piston with the lower surface of oil cylinder, as shown in Fig.1.
As shown in Fig.2, the original clearance, between the bolt head
for disc holding and the lower surface of oil cylinder, is 4.6mm,
at delivery.
on the other hand, max. grinding limit for the seat surface of
valve spindle and valve-seat is about 2mm each (4mm in total),
as specified in the instruction book of VOLUME II 908-2.
Hereupon, after reconditioning of valve spindle and valve-seat, if
grinding amount of each seat surface has reached the max. grinding
limit 2mm (4mm in total, equivalent to 4.6mm in vertical
direction), this may cause contact of bolt head with lower
surface of oil cylinder, at valve closing, by adding effects
such as deformation by wear of exhaust valve components, and
thermal elongation, so on
Please check the bolt head on disc whether they are in contact
with the lower surface of oil cylinder, when each seat surface
is ground up to near max. permissible limit, as there is a
possibility of the above mentioned inconvenience.
Moreover, we recommend to machine the upper surface of the disc
3.5mm so as to decrease the thickness from 13.5mm to 10mm
(Please refer to Fig.3.)
