2.1.1.3 Load reduction
Sudden load throw-off
For the sudden load throw-off from 100% P
Nominal
to 0% P
Nominal
, there are certain requirements on
the part of the classification societies with regard
to the dynamic and permanent speed change (see
Chapter 2.1.3 "Diesel electric operation", Page
2-39j, which are to be met by the engines / the
units.
The sudden load throw-off represents a rather
exceptional situation and corresponds to open-
ing the generator switch of a Diesel-electric
plant.
Care is to be taken that, after a sudden load
throw-off, the system circuits remain in opera-
tion for a minimum of 15 min. to dissipate the re-
sidual engine heat.
Recommended load reduction / stopping the
engine
Unloading the engine
ln principle, there are no regulations with re-
gard to unloading the engine. However, a
minimum of 1 min. is recommended for un-
loading the engine from 100% P
Nominal
to ap-
prox. 25% P
Nominal
.
Engine stop
As from 25% P
Nominal
, further engine unload-
ing is possible, without interruption, and af-
terwards the engine can be stopped.
Run-down cooling
ln order to dissipate the residual engine heat,
the system circuits should be kept in opera-
tion for a minimum of 15 min.

2.1.1.4 Part-load operation
Definition
Generally the following load conditions are dif-
ferentiated:
Over-load (for regulationj:
>100% of full load output
Full-load: 100% of full load output
Part-load: <100% of full load output
Low-load: <25% of full load output
Correlations
The ideal operating conditions for the engine
prevail under even loading at 60% to 90% of the
full-load output. Engine control and rating of all
systems are based on the full-load output.
ln the idling mode or during low-load engine op-
eration, combustion in the cylinders is not ideal.
Deposits may form in the combustion chamber,
which result in a higher soot emission and an in-
crease of cylinder contamination.
Moreover, in low-load operation and during ma-
noeuvrung of ships, the cooling water tempera-
tures cannot be regulated optimally high for all
load conditions which, however, is of particular
importance during operation on heavy fuel oil.
Better conditions
Engines are genuinely better equipped for low-
load operation
if they have a two-stage charge-air cooler, the
second stage of which can be switched off in
order to improve the operating data or
if they have a two-stage charge-air cooler
and switch-over from HT to LT has been pro-
vided for, permitting the admission of HT wa-
ter to the LT stage.
HT: High temperature
LT: Low temperature
Operation on heavy fuel oil
Because of the aforementioned reasons, low-
load operation <20% of full load output on
heavy fuel oil is subjected to certain limitations.
According to Figure 2-1, Page 2-10, the engine
must, after a phase of part-load operation, either
be switched over to Diesel operation or be oper-
ated at high load (>70% of full load outputj for a
certain period of time in order to reduce the de-
posits in the cylinder and exhaust gas turbo-
charger again.
ln case the engine is to be operated at low-load
for a period exceeding that shown in Figure 2-1,
Page 2-10, the engine is to be switched over to
Diesel oil operation beforehand.
For continuous heavy fuel oil operation at part
loads in the range <25% of the full engine out-
put, co-ordination with MAN Diesel is absolutely
necessary.
Operation on Diesel fuel
For low-load operation on Diesel fuel oil, the fol-
lowing rules apply:
A continuous operation below 15% of full
load is to be avoided, if possible.
Note!
Should this be absolutely necessary, MAN Die-
sel has to be consulted for special arrangements
(e.g. the use of part-load injection nozzlesj.
A no-load operation, especially at nominal
speed (generator operationj is only permitted
for a maximum period of 1...2 hours
No limitations are required for loads above 15%
of full load, as long as the specified operating
data of the engine will not be exceeded.

Explanations
Figure on the left:
Time limits for part-load operation on heavy
fuel oil
Figure on the right:
Necessary operation time at >70% of full-
load output after part-load operation on
heavy fuel oil.
Note!
Acceleration time from present output to 70% of
full-load output not less than 15 minutes.
Example
Line a:
At 10% of full-load output, HFO operation is per-
missible for maximum 19 hours, then switch
over to Diesel fuel oil, or
Line b:
Operate the engine for approx. 1.2 hours at not
less than 70% of full-load output to burn away
the deposits that have formed. Subsequently,
part-load operation on heavy fuel oil can be con-
tinued.

2.1.1.7 Condensate amount
Charge-air pipes, air vessels
Figure 2-2 Diagram condensate amount
The amount of condensation water precipitated
from the air can be quite large, particularly in the
tropics, and depends of the condition of the air
drawn in, when the temperature of the charge air
in the charge-air pipes drops below the dew
point.
The volume of condensate in the air vessels is
determined by means of the curve at the bottom
right of the diagram, representing an operating
pressure of 30bar.

2.1.1.8 Earthing measures on Diesel engines and bearing insulation on genera-
tors
General
The use of electrical equipment on Diesel en-
gines requires precautions to be taken for pro-
tection against shock current and for
equipotential bonding. These not only serve as
shock protection but also for functional protec-
tion of electric and electronic devices (EMC pro-
tection, device protection in case of welding,
etc.j.
Figure 2-3 Earthing connection on engine
Earthing connections on the engine
Threaded bores M12, 20mm deep, marked with
the earthing symbol have been provided in the
engine foot on both ends of the engines.
lt has to be ensured that earthing is carried out
immediately after engine set-up! (lf this cannot
be accomplished any other way, at least provi-
sional earthing is to be effected right at the be-
ginning.j
Measures to be taken on the generator
Because of slight magnetic unbalances and ring
excitations, shaft voltages, i.e. voltages be-
tween the two shaft ends, are generated in elec-
trical machines. ln the case of considerable
values (e.g. >0.3vj, there is the risk that bearing
damage occurs due to current transfers. For this
reason, at least the bearing that is not located on
the drive end is insulated on generators approx.
>1MW. For verification, the voltage available at
the shaft (shaft voltagej is measured while the
generator is running and excited. With proper in-
sulation, a voltage can be measured. ln order to
protect the prime mover and to divert electro-
static charging, an earthing brush is often fitted
on the coupling side.
Observation of the required measures is the
generator manufacturer's responsibility.
Consequences of inadequate bearing
insulation on the generator, and insulation
check
ln case the bearing insulation is inadequate,
e.g., if the bearing insulation was short-circuit by
a measuring lead (PT100, vibration sensorj,
leakage currents may occur, which result in the
destruction of the bearings. One possibility to
check the insolation with the machine at stand-
still (prior to coupling the generator to the en-
gine; this, however, is only possible in the case
of single-bearing generatorsj would be to raise
the generator rotor (insulated, in the cranej on
the coupling side, and to measure the insulation
by means of the Megger test against earth (in
this connection, the max. voltage permitted by
the generator manufacturer is to be observed!j.

lf the shaft voltage of the generator at rated
speed and rated voltage is known (e.g. from the
test record of the generator acceptance testj, it
is also possible to carry out a comparative
measurement.
lf the measured shaft voltage is lower than the
result of the earlier measurement" (test recordj,
the generator manufacturer should be consult-
ed.
Earthing conductor
The nominal cross section of the earthing con-
ductor (equipotential bonding conductorj has to
be selected in accordance with DlN vDE 0100,
part 540 (up to 1000vj or DlN vDE 0141 (in ex-
cess of 1Kvj.
Generally, the following applies:
The protective conductor to be assigned to the
largest main conductor is to be taken as a basis
for sizing the cross sections of the equipotential
bonding conductors.
Flexible conductors have to be used for the con-
nection of resiliently mounted engines.
Execution of earthing
On vessels, earthing must be done by the ship-
yard during assembly on board.
Earthing strips are not included in the MAN Die-
sel scope of supply.
Additional information regarding the use of
welding equipment
ln order to prevent damage on electrical compo-
nents, it is imperative to earth welding equip-
ment close to the welding area, i.e., the distance
between the welding electrode and the earthing
connection should not exceed 10m.

2.1.1.9 Torsional vibrations
Data required for torsional vibration
calculation
MAN Diesel calculates the torsional vibrations
behaviour for each individual engine plant of
their supply to determine the location and sever-
ity of resonance points. lf necessary, appropri-
ate measures will be taken to avoid excessive
stresses due to torsional vibration. These inves-
tigations cover the ideal normal operation of the
engine (all cylinders are firing equallyj as well as
the simulated emergency operation (misfiring of
the cylinder exerting the greatest influence on vi-
brations, acting against compressionj. Besides
the natural frequencies and the modes also the
dynamic responce will be calculated, normally
under consideration of the 1
st
to 24
th
harmonic
of the gas and mass forces of the engine. Be-
yond that also further exciting sources such as
propeller, pumps etc. can be considered if the
respective manufacturer is able to make the cor-
responding data available to MAN Diesel.
lf necessary, a torsional vibration calculation will
be worked out which can be submitted for ap-
proval to a classification society or a legal au-
thority.
To carry out the torsional vibration calculation
following particulars and/or documents are re-
quired.

2.1.2.2 General requirements for propeller pitch control
Pitch control of the propeller plant
For mechanical speed governors:
4-20 mA signal from the admission teletransmit-
ter of the engine will be supplied to the propeller
control as a load indication.
For electronic speed governors:
4-20 mA signal from the electronic governor of
the engine will be supplied to the propeller con-
trol as load indication.
General:
A distinction between constant-speed operation
and combinator-curve operation has to be en-
sured.
Combinator-curve operation:
The 4-20 mA signal has to be used for the as-
signment of the propeller pitch to the respective
engine speed. The operation curve of engine
speed and propeller pitch (for power range, see
2.1.2.1 Controllable-pitch propeller; operating
range of this documentationj has to be observed
also during acceleration/load increase and un-
loading.
Acceleration / load increase
The engine speed has to be increased prior to
increasing the propeller pitch. See the example
shown below.
Deceleration / unloading the engine
The engine speed has to be reduced later than
the propeller pitch.See the example shown be-
low.
Windmilling protection (pump admission at zero,
and engine being turned by the propellerj
Single-shaft plant
The propeller control has to take care that the
windmilling time is less than 30 sec.
Multi-shaft plant:
The propeller control has to take care that the
windmilling time is less than 30 sec.
Should, nevertheless, the windmilling time be
more than 40 sec., the respective engine has to
be disengaged.
ln case of plants without shifting clutch, it is to
be ensured that a stopped engine is not turned
by the propeller.
A shaft interlock is to be provided for each shaft
for maintenace work.
Overload / engine close to limit curve / reduction
input in propeller control (binary signalj
Overload contact:
The overload contact is activated when the en-
gine fuel admission is set to maximum. At this
time, the control has to keep the propeller pitch
from increasing and, in case the signal remains
for more than an adjustable time, the propeller
pitch has to be decreased.
Operation close to the limit curves (only for elec-
tronic speed governorsj:
This contact is activated when the engine is op-
erated close to a limit curve (torque limiter,
charge air pressure limiter ...j. When the contact
is closed, the propeller control has to keep the
propeller pitch from increasing and, in case the
signal remains for more than an adjustable time,
the propeller pitch has to be decreased.

Pitch reduction contact:
This contact is activated when disturbances in
engine operation occur, for example too high ex-
haust-gas mean-value deviation. When the con-
tact is closed, the propeller control has to
reduce the propeller pitch to 60% of the rated
engine output, without change in engine speed.
Distinction between normal manoeuvre and
emergency manoeuvre
The propeller control has to be able to distin-
guish between normal manoeuvre and emer-
gency manoeuvre (i.e., two different
acceleration curves are necessaryj.
MAN Diesel's directions concerning accelera-
tion times and power range are to be observed.
The power range according to sheet 2.1.2 Pro-
peller operation, page 2- 23 and the acceleration
times according to sheet Page 2 - 35 and
Page 2 - 37 of this documentation are to be ob-
served.

2.1.2.4 Engine running-in
Preconditions
Engines must be run in
during commissioning at site if, after the test
run, pistons or bearings were removed for in-
spection and/or if the engine was partly or
completely disassembled for transport,
on installation of new running gear compo-
nents, e.g. cylinder liners, piston rings, main
bearings, big-end bearings and piston pin
bearings,
on installation of used bearing shells,
after an extended low-load operation (> 500
operating hoursj.
Supplementary information
Adjustment required
Surface irregularities on the piston rings and the
cylinder liner running surface are smoothed out
during the running-in process. The process is
ended when the first piston ring forms a perfect
seal towards the combustion chamber, i.e. the
first piston ring exhibits an even running surface
around its entire circumference. lf the engine is
subjected to a higher load before this occurs,
the hot exhaust gases will pass between the pis-
ton rings and the cylinder liner running surface.
The film of oil will be destroyed at these loca-
tions. The consequence will be material destruc-
tion (e.g. scald marksj on the running surfaces of
the rings and the cylinder liner and increased
wear and high oil consumption during subse-
quent operation.
The duration of the running-in period is influ-
enced by a number of factors, including the con-
dition of the surface of piston rings and the
cylinder liner, the quality of the fuel and lube oil
and the loading and speed of the engine. The
running-in periods shown in Figure 2-7, Page
2-33, and Figure 2-8, Page 2-33, respectively,
are, therefore, for guidance only.
Operating media
Fuel
Diesel oil or heavy fuel oil can be used for the
running-in process. The fuel used must satisfy
the quality requirements (see Chapter 3 "Quality
requirements of operating supplies", Page 3-1j
and be appropriate for the fuel system layout.
Spark-ignited gas engines are best run in using
the gas which is to be used later on under oper-
ating conditions. Dual-fuel engines are run-in in
Diesel mode using the fuel oil that will later be
used as pilot oil.
Lubricating oil
The lubricating oil to be used while running in the
engine must satisfy the quality requirements
(see Chapter 3 "Quality requirements of operat-
ing supplies", Page 3-1j relating to the relevant
fuel quality.
Caution!
The lube oil system is to be rinsed out before fill-
ing it for the first time (see MAN Diesel Work
Card 000.03j.
Running-in the engine
Cylinder lubrication
During the entire running-in process, the cylin-
der lubrication is to be switched to the Run-
ning-in" mode. This is done at the control
cabinet and/or the operator's panel and causes
the cylinder lubrication to be activated over the
entire load range already when the engine is
started. The increased oil supply has a favoura-
ble effect on the running-in of the piston rings
and pistons. After completion of the running-in
process, the cylinder lubrication is to be
switched back to Normal Mode".

Checks
During running-in, the bearing temperature and
crankcase are to be checked
for the first time after 10 minutes of operation
at minimum speed,
again after operational output levels have
been reached.
The bearing temperatures (camshaft bearings,
big-end and main bearingsj are to be measured
and compared with those of the neighbouring
bearings. For this purpose, an electric tracer-
type thermometer can be used as measuring
device.
At 85% load and on reaching operational output
levels, the operating data (firing pressures, ex-
haust gas temperatures, charge air pressure,
etc.j are to be checked and compared with the
acceptance record.
Standard running-in programme
Marine engines for propeller plants (operation at
variable speedj. Running-in can be carried out
with a fixed-pitch , controllable-pitch, or zero-
thrust-pitch propeller. During the entire running-
in period, the engine output is to remain within
the output range that has been marked in Figure
2-7, Page 2-33 and Figure 2-8, Page 2-33, resp.
Critical speed ranges are to be avoided.
Running-in during commissioning at site
Four-stroke engines are, with a few exceptions,
always subject to a test run in the manufactur-
er's works, so that the engine has been run in, as
a rule. Nevertheless, repeated running is re-
quired after assembly at the final place of instal-
lation if pistons or bearings were removed for
inspection after the test run or if the engine was
partly or completely disassembled for transpor-
tation.
Running-in after installation of new running gear
components
ln case cylinder liners, pistons and/or piston
rings are replaced on the occasion of overhaul
work, the engine has to be run in again. Run-
ning-in is also required if the rings have been re-
placed on one piston only. Running-in is to be
carried out according to Figure 2-7, Page 2-33
and Figure 2-8, Page 2-33, and/or the pertinent
explanations.
The cylinder liner requires rehoning according to
MAN Diesel Work Card 050.05 unless it is re-
placed. A portable honing device can be ob-
tained from one of our service bases.
Running-in after refitting used or installing new
bearing shells (main bearing, big-end and piston
pin bearingsj
lf used bearing shells were refitted or new bear-
ing shells installed, the respective bearings will
have to be run in. The running-in period should
be 3 to 5 hours, applying load in stages. The re-
marks in the previous paragraphs, especially un-
der "Checks", as well as Figure 2-7, Page 2-33
and Figure 2-8, Page 2-33, resp., are to be ob-
served.
ldling at high speed over an extended period is
to be avoided, wherever possible.
Running-in after low-load operation
Continuous operation in the low-load range may
result in heavy internal contamination of the en-
gine. Combustion residues from the fuel and lu-
bricating oil may deposit on the top-land ring of
the piston, in the ring grooves and possibly also
in the inlet ducts. Besides, the charge air and ex-
haust piping, the charge air cooler, the turbo-
charger and the exhaust gas boiler may become
oily.
Since the piston rings will also have adapted
themselves to the cylinder liner according to the
loads they have been subjected to, accelerating
the engine too quickly will result in increased
wear and possibly cause other types of engine
damage (piston ring blow-by, piston seizurej.
After prolonged low-load operation (500 opera-
tion hoursj, the engine should therefore be run in
again, starting from the output level, at which it
has been operated, in accordance with Figure 2-
7, Page 2-33 and Figure 2-8, Page 2-33.

2.1.2.5 Acceleration times
Acceleration times for fixed-pitch and
controllable pitch-propeller plants
Notes on design
For remote controlled propeller drives for ships
with unmanned or centrally monitored engine-
room operation, a load programme is to be pro-
vided for the engines. Within the scope of the re-
mote control system (for the pitch adjustment of
the controllable pitch propeller or reversing and
load application of the enginej.
This programme serves to protect the pre-heat-
ed engine(sj (lube oil temperature 40C and
fresh water temperature 60Cj against exces-
sive thermal stresses, increased wear and ex-
haust gas turbidity, when the engines are loaded
for the first time - possibly up to the rated out-
put.
ln case of a manned engine room, the engine
room personnel are responsible for the soft
loading sequence, before control is handed over
to the bridge.
The lower time limits for normal and emergency
manoeuvres are given in our diagrams for appli-
cation and shedding of load. We strongly rec-
ommend that the limits for normal manoeuvring
is observed during normal operation, to achieve
trouble-free engine operation on a long-term
basis. An automatic change-over to a shortened
load programme is required for emergency ma-
noeuvres.
The final design of the programme should be
jointly determined by all the parties involved,
considering the demands for manoeuvring and
the actual service capacity.
Please note that the time constants for the dy-
namic behaviour of the prime mover and the
vessel have a ratio of about 1:100, from which it
can be seen that demands for an extremely
short load application - wrongly believed to be
possible given the speed with which the propel-
ler pitch can be set - generally do not produce
an improvement in ship behaviour during ma-
noeuvring (except for tugs and small, fast ves-
selsj.

2.1.3 Diesel electric operation
2.1.3.1 Load application for shipboard- and isolated electrical systems
ln the age of highly turbocharged Diesel en-
gines, building rules of classification societies
regarding load application (e.g. 0% ==> 50%
==>100%j cannot be complied with, even by
special measures. However the requirements of
the lACS (lnternational Association of Classifica-
tion Societiesj and lSO 8528-5 are realistic. ln
the case of ships engines the application of
lACS requirements is to be clarified with the re-
spective classification society as well as the
shipyard and the owner. During discussions on
load application, the lACS requirements are
therefore to be considered as MAN Diesel
standard".
For applications from 0% to 100% continuous
rating, according to lACS and lSO 8528-5, the
following diagram applies:

Depending on the mean effective pressure of the
engines a load application from 0 to 100% re-
sults in the following number of load steps and
their percentages:
Note!
Bigger load steps than listed in the table are not
possible as a standard!
Observance of the following application rates
the minimum requirements of the institutions
listed below are realised.
ln case of load drop of 100% P
nominal
, the dy-
namical speed variation must not exceed 10%
of the nominal speed and the remaining speed
variation must not surpass 5% of the nominal
speed.
Requirements for plant design:
Load application must be taken into consid-
eration for the design of the isolated system
on board accordingly.
Board operation must be safe in case of
graduated load application of important con-
sumers.
The load application conditions (E-balancej
must be approved during the planning and
examination phase.
The possible failure of one engine must be al-
lowed for - please see Chapter 2.1.3.5 "Die-
sel-electric operation of vessels - failure of
one engine", Page 2-51
lt is absolutely necessary that all questions re-
garding the dynamical behaviour of the engines
are clarified prior to contract conclusion and for
all customer requirements and MAN Diesel con-
firmations are fixed in writing in the delivery con-
tract.

2.1.3.2 Available outputs dependent on frequency deviations
General
Generating sets, which are integrated in an elec-
tricity supply system, are subjected to the fre-
quency fluctuations of the mains. Depending on
the severity of the frequency fluctuations, output
and operation respectively have to be restricted.
Frequency adjustment range
According to DlN lSO 8528-5: 1997-11, operat-
ing limits of >2.5% are specified for the lower
and upper frequency adjustment range.
Operating range
Depending on the prevailing local ambient con-
ditions, a certain maximum continuous rating
will be available.
ln the output/speed and frequency diagrams, a
range has specifically been marked with No
continuous operation allowed in this area". Op-
eration in this range is only permissible for a
short period of time, i.e. for less than 2 minutes.
ln special cases, a continuous rating is permis-
sible if the standard frequency is exceeded by
more than 3%.
Limiting parameters
Max. torque - ln case the frequency decreases,
the available output is limited by the maximum
permissible torque of the generating set.
Max. speed for continuous rating - An increase
in frequency, resulting in a speed that is higher
than the maximum speed admissible for contin-
uous operation, is only permissible for a short
period of time, i.e. for less than 2 minutes.
For engine-specific information see - Chapter
"Output, speeds"- of the specific engine.
Overload
Overload >100% may only be run for a short
time for recovery and preventing a frequency
drop in case of load application.

2.1.3.3 Engine running-in
Preconditions
Engines must be run in
during commissioning at site if, after the test
run, pistons or bearings were removed for in-
spection and/or if the engine was partly or
completely disassembled for transport,
on installation of new running gear compo-
nents, e.g. cylinder liners, piston rings, main
bearings, big-end bearings and piston pin
bearings,
on installation of used bearing shells,
after an extended low-load operation (> 500
operating hoursj.
Supplementary information
Adjustment required
Surface irregularities on the piston rings and the
cylinder liner running surface are smoothed out
during the running-in process. The process is
ended when the first piston ring forms a perfect
seal towards the combustion chamber, i.e. the
first piston ring exhibits an even running surface
around its entire circumference. lf the engine is
subjected to a higher load before this occurs,
the hot exhaust gases will pass between the pis-
ton rings and the cylinder liner running surface.
The film of oil will be destroyed at these loca-
tions. The consequence will be material destruc-
tion (e.g. scald marksj on the running surfaces of
the rings and the cylinder liner and increased
wear and high oil consumption during subse-
quent operation.
The duration of the running-in period is influ-
enced by a number of factors, including the con-
dition of the surface of piston rings and the
cylinder liner, the quality of the fuel and lube oil
and the loading and speed of the engine. The
running-in periods shown in Figure 2-12, Page
2-45, and Figure 2-13, Page 2-45, respectively,
are, therefore, for guidance only.

Diesel oil or gas oil. The fuel used must satisfy
the quality requirements (see Chapter 3 "Quality
requirements of operating supplies", Page 3-1j
and be appropriate for the fuel system layout.
Lubricating oil
The lubricating oil to be used while running in the
engine must satisfy the quality requirements
(see Chapter 3 "Quality requirements of operat-
ing supplies", Page 3-1j relating to the relevant
fuel quality.
Caution!
The lube oil system is to be rinsed out before fill-
ing it for the first time (see MAN Diesel Work
Card 000.03j.
Running-in the engine
Cylinder lubrication
During the entire running-in process, the cylin-
der lubrication is to be switched to the Run-
ning-in" mode. This is done at the control
cabinet and/or the operator's panel and causes
the cylinder lubrication to be activated over the
entire load range already when the engine is
started. The increased oil supply has a favoura-
ble effect on the running-in of the piston rings
and pistons. After completion of the running-in
process, the cylinder lubrication is to be
switched back to Normal Mode".
Checks
During running-in, the bearing temperature and
crankcase are to be checked
for the first time after 10 minutes of operation
at minimum speed,
again after operational output levels have
been reached.

The bearing temperatures (camshaft bearings,
big-end and main bearingsj are to be measured
and compared with those of the neighbouring
bearings. For this purpose, an electric tracer-
type thermometer can be used as measuring
device.
At 85% load and on reaching operational output
levels, the operating data (firing pressures, ex-
haust gas temperatures, charge air pressure,
etc.j are to be checked and compared with the
acceptance record.
Standard running-in programme
ln the case of engines driving generators, the
engine speed is, within the specified period, at
first increased up to the normal speed before
load is applied. During the entire running-in pe-
riod, the engine output is to remain within the
output range that has been marked in Figure 2-
12, Page 2-45 and Figure 2-13, Page 2-45, resp.
Critical speed ranges are to be avoided.
Running-in during commissioning at site
Four-stroke engines are, with a few exceptions,
always subject to a test run in the manufactur-
er's works, so that the engine has been run in, as
a rule. Nevertheless, repeated running-in is re-
quired after assembly at the final place of instal-
lation if pistons or bearings were removed for
inspection after the test run or if the engine was
partly or completely disassembled for transpor-
tation.
Running-in after installation of new running gear
components
ln case cylinder liners, pistons and/or piston
rings are replaced on the occasion of overhaul
work, the engine has to be run in again. Run-
ning-in is also required if the rings have been re-
placed on one piston only. Running-in is to be
carried out according to Figure 2-12, Page 2-45
and Figure 2-13, Page 2-45, and/or the pertinent
explanations.
The cylinder liner requires rehoning according to
MAN Diesel Work Card 050.05 unless it is re-
placed. A portable honing device can be ob-
tained from one of our service bases.
Running-in after refitting used or installing new
bearing shells (main bearing, big-end and piston
pin bearingsj
lf used bearing shells were refitted or new bear-
ing shells installed, the respective bearings will
have to be run in. The running-in period should
be 3 to 5 hours, applying load in stages. The re-
marks in the previous paragraphs, especially un-
der "Checks", as well as Figure 2-12, Page 2-45
and Figure 2-13, Page 2-45, resp., are to be ob-
served.
ldling at high speed over an extended period is
to be avoided, wherever possible.
Running-in after low-load operation
Continuous operation in the low-load range may
result in heavy internal contamination of the en-
gine. Combustion residues from the fuel and lu-
bricating oil may deposit on the top-land ring of
the piston, in the ring grooves and possibly also
in the inlet ducts. Besides, the charge air and ex-
haust piping, the charge air cooler, the turbo-
charger and the exhaust gas boiler may become
oily.
As also the piston rings will have adapted them-
selves to the cylinder liner according to the
loads they have been subjected to, accelerating
the engine too quickly will result in increased
wear and possibly cause other types of engine
damage (piston ring blow-by, piston seizurej.
After prolonged low-load operation (500 opera-
tion hoursj, the engine should therefore be run in
again, starting from the output level, at which it
has been operated, in accordance with Figure 2-
12, Page 2-45 and Figure 2-13, Page 2-45.
Please also refer to the notes in Chapter 2.1.1.4
"Part-load operation", Page 2-9.

ice department of MAN Diesel or of the licensee

2.1.3.4 Starting conditions for Diesel-electric marine plants
ln multiple-engine Diesel-electric ship propul-
sion plants with load regulation by a power man-
agement system, the availability of the engines
not in operation is an important aspect of engine
operation. The following data and conditions are
relevant to this:
Engine start-up time until synchronization
Max. permissible time on stand-by mode for
engines
Black-start" capability (with restriction of the
plantj
Load application times
When reaching the maximum stand-by period,
the engine must either be started and loaded up
to about 30% load, or taken out of stand-by
mode via the power management system. This
switches off the priming lube pump and the fuel
system.
(for HFO-operation with separeted pressure sys-
tem per each engine exists different conditionsj
Engines not on stand-by mode can be started
with normal starting procedure at any time.
A stand-by period is only permissible after a pri-
or engine start with at least 30% loading.

2.1.3.5 Diesel-electric operation of vessels - failure of one engine
Diesel-electric operation of vessels means par-
allel operation of engine units with the genera-
tors forming a closed system.
When planning a marine installation, the possi-
ble failure of one engine must be allowed for in
order to avoid possible overloading of the re-
maining engines, and thus risking a black-out.
We therefore generally advise equipping Diesel-
electric marine installations with a power man-
agement system. This ensures that the engines
can be operated in the maximum output range
and, in case one unit fails, the propulsive output
is reduced or unimportant users are switched off
by the power management in order to avoid an
electric black-out due to underfrequency.
lt is up to the ships operator to decide, which
consumers are disconnected from the supply
under what operating conditions or which of
them are given priority.
With regard to contamination and soot behav-
iour during low-load operation, the chosen load
reserve achieved by the number of engines run-
ning in the system should not be too high (i.e.
several engines running on low loadj.
Regarding the optimum operating range and the
permissible part loads, the information provided
in Chapter 2.1.1.4 "Part-load operation", Page
2-9 are to be observed.
Load application in case one engine fails
ln case one engine fails while running at sea, its
output has to be made up for by the engines re-
maining in the system and/or the loading has to
be decreased by reducing the propulsive output
and/or by switching off electric consumers.
The immediate load transfer to one engine does
not always correspond with the load reserves
this particular engine still has available. This de-
pends on the base load that is being run at in the
respective moment.
The permissible load applications for such a
case can be derived from the following Figure 2-
16.

The maximum output as a function of the
number of engines running in a system, which
will not result into a total output reduction of the
multi-engine plant in case one unit fails, can be
derived from the following Table 2-9.

Table 2-9 Load application in case one engine fails
Example
The isolated network consists of 4 engines of
the 9L 58/64 type with an output of 12,170kW
electric each.
Reaching the same output at all load points re-
quires that the engines have the same speed
drop.
With all 4 units being in operation and running at
100% site rating, the possible mains output is:
lf the present system load is P
0
= 39,000, each
engine runs with:
ln case one unit suddenly fails, an immediate
transfer of 20% engine output is possible ac-
cording to the diagram, i.e. from 80% to100%
engine output.
100% engine output of the remaining 3 x 9L 58/
64 is calculated as follows:
Consequently, an immediate load decrease from
39,000kW to 36,500kW is necessary, i.e. reduc-
tion of the consumers in the system by 2,500kW.

2.1.3.6 Generator - reverse power protection
Demand for reverse power protection
Generators of an electrical power output >50
kvA running in parallel operation have to be
equipped with a reverse power protection (re-
quirement of classification societiesj.
Definition of reverse power
lf a generator, which is connected to a combus-
tion engine, is no longer driven by this engine
but is supplied with propulsive power by the
connected net and is, therefore, working as an
electrical engine, this is called reverse power.
Examples for possible reverse power
The combustion engine does no longer drive
the generator, which is connected to the
mains, e.g., because of lack of fuel.
Stopping of the combustion engine with the
generator, which is connected to the mains.
On ships with electrical traction motor, the
propeller drives the electrical traction motor,
the electrical traction motor drives the gener-
ator, the generator drives the combustion en-
gine.
Sudden frequency increase, e.g. because of
a load decrease in an isolated net --> if the
combustion engine is operated at low load
(e.g. just after synchronisingj
Adjusting the reverse power protection relay
Adjusting value for reverse power protection re-
lay: maximum 3% P
nominal
On vessels with electric traction motor and
"Crash stop" requirements (shifting the ma-
noeuvring lever from Forward to Full Reversej,
special arrangements for the adjustment value
of the reverse power relay are to be made, which
are only valid in the event of a "crash stop" ma-
noeuvre.
Time lags
For activation of the reverse power protection
relay, time lags of approximately 5 to 10 sec-
onds have to be fixed.
Maximum time for reverse power
lf a reverse power higher than the adjusted
value for the reverse power protection relay
occurs, the generator switch has to open im-
mediately after the time lag elapsed.
Reverse power below the adjusted value for
the reverse power protection relay for periods
exceeding 30 seconds is not permitted.

2.2.6 Emissions
2.2.6.1 Composition of exhaust gas of medium speed four-stroke Diesel engines
The exhaust gas of a medium speed four-stroke
Diesel engine is composed of numerous of con-
stituents. These are derived from either the com-
bustion air and fuel oil and lube oil used, or they
are reaction products, formed during the com-
bustion process. Only some of these are to be
considered as harmful substances.
The table below show the typical composition of
the exhaust gas of an MAN Diesel four-stroke
Diesel engine without any exhaust gas treatment
devices.
Note! : At rated power and without exhaust gas teatment

Carbon dioxide CO
2
Carbon dioxide (CO
2
j is a product of combus-
tion of all fossil fuels.
Among all internal combustion engines the Die-
sel engine has the lowest specific CO
2
emission
based on the same fuel quality, due to its supe-
rior efficiency.
Sulphur oxides SO
x
Sulphur oxides (SO
x
j are formed by the combus-
tion of the sulphur contained in the fuel.
Among all propulsion systems the Diesel proc-
ess results in the lowest specific SO
x
emission
based on the same fuel quality, due to its supe-
rior efficiency.
Nitrogen oxides NO
x
(NO + NO
2
j
The high temperatures prevailing in the combus-
tion chamber of an internal combustion engine
cause the nitrogen contained in the combustion
air and also that contained in some fuel grades
to react with the oxygen of the combustion air to
form nitrogen oxides (NO
x
j.
Carbon monoxide CO
Carbon monoxide (COj is formed during incom-
plete combustion.
ln MAN Diesel four-stroke Diesel engines, opti-
misation of mixture formation and turbocharging
process successfully reduces the CO content of
the exhaust gas to a very low level.
Hydrocarbons HC
The hydrocarbons (HCj contained in the exhaust
gas are composed of a multitude of various or-
ganic compounds as a result of incomplete
combustion.
Due to the efficient combustion process, the HC
content of exhaust gas of MAN Diesel four-
stroke Diesel engines is at a very low level.
Particulate Matter PM
Particulate matter (PMj consists of soot (ele-
mental carbonj and ash.

General remark:
Masses which are connected downstream of
the engine in the case of an overhung, resp. rig-
idly coupled, arrangement result in additional
crankshaft bending stress, which is mirrored in a
measured web deflection during engine installa-
tion.
Provided the limit values for the masses to be
coupled downstream of the engine (permissible
values for Mmax and F1maxj are complied with,
the permitted web deflections will not be ex-
ceeded during assembly.
Observing these values ensures a sufficiently
long operating time before a realignment of the
crankshaft has to be carried out.

2.2.8.3 Static torque fluctuation
General
The static torque fluctuation is the summation -
taking into account the correct phase-angles -
of the torques acting at all cranks around the
crankshaft axis. These torques are created by
the gas and mass forces acting at the crankpins,
with the crank radius being used as the lever
(see examples on the following pagesj. An abso-
lutely rigid crankshaft is assumed. The values
T
max
and T
min
listed in the tables on the follow-
ing pages represent a measure for the reaction
forces occurring at the foundation of the engine
(see the figure belowj. The static values listed in
the table undergo in each individual case a dy-
namic magnification which is dependent upon
the characteristics of the foundation (design and
material thicknesses in way of the foundation,
type of chockingj.
The reaction forces generated by the torque
fluctuation are the most important excitations
transmitted into the foundation in the case of a
rigidly or semi-resiliently mounted engine. Their
frequency is dependent upon speed and cylin-
der number, and is also listed in the table.
ln order to avoid local vibration excitations in the
vessel, it must be ensured that the natural fre-
quencies of important part structures (e.g. pan-
els, bulkheads, tank walls and decks, equipment
and its foundation, pipe systemsj have a suffi-
cient safety margin (if possible 30%j in relation
to this main excitation frequency.

2.2.11.1 General requirements for engine foundation
Plate thicknesses
The stated material dimensions are recommen-
dations, thicknesses smaller than these should
not be allowed.
Top plates
Before or after having been welded in place, the
bearing surfaces should be machined and freed
from rolling scale. Surface finish corresponding
to Ra 3.2 peak-to-valley roughness in the area of
the chocks.
The thickness given is the finished size after ma-
chining.
Downward inclination outwards, not exceeding
0.7 %.
Prior to fitting the chocks, clean the bearing sur-
faces from dirt and rust that may have formed:
After the drilling of the foundation bolt holes,
spotface the lower contact face normal to the
bolt hole.
Foundation girders
The distance of the inner girders must be ob-
served. We recommend that the distance of the
outer girders (only required for larger typesj also
be observed.
The girders must be aligned exactly above and
underneath the tank top.
Floor plates
No manholes are permitted in the floor plates in
the area of the box-shaped foundation. Welding
is to be carried out through the manholes in the
outer girders.
Top plate supporting

2.2.11.3 Chocking with synthetic resin
Engine 48/60B
Most classification societies permit the use of
the following synthetic resins for chocking Die-
sel engines:
Chockfast Orange
(Philadelphia Resins Corp. U.S.Aj
Epocast 36
(H.A. Springer, Kielj
MAN Diesel accepts engines being chocked
with synthetic resin provided
processing is done by authorised agents of
the above companies
the classification society responsible has ap-
proved the synthetic resin to be used for a
unit pressure (engine weight + foundation
bolt preloadingj of 450 N/cm
2
and a chock
temperature of at least 80 C.
The chock surfaces shown are large enough so
that surface area load due to engine weight
alone is 45 N/cm
2
. This means that the maxi-
mum figure of 70 N/cm
2
laid down by the classi-
fication society is not exceeded.
The pre-tensioning force of the foundation bolts
was chosen so that the permissible total surface
area load of 450 N/cm
2
is utilised. This will en-
sure that the horizontal thrust resulting from the
mass forces is safely transmitted via the chocks.
The shipyard is responsible for the execution
and must also grant the warranty.
Tightening of the foundation bolts only permissi-
ble with hydraulic tensioning device. The point
of application of force is the end of the thread
with a length of 173 mm. Nuts definitely must
not be tightened with hook spanner and ham-
mer, even for later inspections.

2.2.11.4 Resilient seating - general informations
The engines cause dynamic effects on the foun-
dation. These effects are to be attributed to the
pulsating forces of reaction due to the irregular
torque, and in engines with certain cylinder
numbers these effects are attributable to the
free forces due to gravity and moments of iner-
tia. ln addition, an internal combustion engine
generates structure-borne sound, which is also
transmitted into the foundation.
The direct resilient support makes it possible to
keep the foundation practically free from the dy-
namic forces, which are generated by every re-
ciprocating engine and may have harmful effects
on the environment of the engines under ad-
verse conditions.
Therefore MAN Diesel offers two different ver-
sions of the resilient mounting to increase the
comfort.
The inclined resilient mounting was developed
especially for ships with high comfort demands,
e.g. passenger ferries and cruise vessels. This
mounting system is characterised by natural fre-
quencies of the resiliently supported engine be-
ing lower than approx. 5 Hz, so that they are well
below those of the pulsating disturbing varia-
bles.
For lower demands of comfort, as e.g. for mer-
chant ships, the conical mounting system was
created. Because of the stiffer design of the ele-
ments the natural frequencies of the system are
clearly higher than in case of the inclined resil-
ient mounting. The structure-borne-sound isola-
tion is thus decreased. lt is, however still
considerably better than in case of a rigid engine
support.
The appropriate design of the resilient support
will be selected in accordance with the demands
of the customer, i.e. it will be adjusted to the
special requirements of each plant.
ln both versions the supporting elements will be
connected directly to the engine feet by special
brackets. The number, rubber hardness and dis-
tribution of the supporting elements depend on
the weight of the engine
the centre of gravity of the engine
the desired natural frequencies
Where resilient mounting is applied, the follow-
ing has to be taken into consideration when de-
signing a propulsion plant:
1. Between the resiliently mounted engine and
the rigidly mounted gearbox or generator, a
flexible coupling with minimum axial and ra-
dial elastic forces and large axial and radial
displacement capacities must be provided.
2. With a few exceptions, it will be necessary
to use a controllable-pitch propeller, since a
relatively large speed range (below approx.
70% of the rated speedj has to be barred
due to the frequencies of the support and
associated resonances.
3. The pipes to and from the engine must be of
highly flexible type.
4. For the inclined resilient support, provision
for stopper elements has to be made be-
cause of the sea-state-related movement of
the vessel. ln the case of conical mounting,
these stoppers are integrated in the ele-
ment.
5. ln order to achieve a good structure-borne-
sound isolation, the lower brackets used to
connect the supporting elements with the
ship's foundation are to be fitted at suffi-
ciently rigid points of the foundation. lnflu-
ences of the foundation's stiffness on the
natural frequencies of the resilient support
will not be considered.
6. The yard must specify with which inclination
related to the plane keel the engine will be
installed in the ship. When calculating the
resilient mounting system, it has to be
checked whether the desired inclination can
be realised without special measures. Addi-
tional measures always result in additional
costs.

2.2.11.6 lnstallation of flexible pipe connections for resiliently mounted engines
Arrangement of hoses on resiliently mounted engine
Flexible pipe connections become necessary to
connect resilient mounted engines with external
piping systems. They are used to compensate
the dynamic movements of the engine in relation
to the external piping system. The origin of the
dynamic engine movements, their direction and
identity, are in principle indicated in Table 2-29.
Table 2-29 Simplified trend synopsis of dynamic engine movements. The number of "x" indicates the incidence.

Generally flexible pipes (rubber hoses with steel
inlet, metal hoses, PTFE-corrugated hose-lines,
rubber bellows with steel inlet, steel bellows,
steel compensatorsj are nearly unable to com-
pensate twisting movements. Therefore the in-
stallation direction of flexible pipes must be
vertically (in Z-directionj if ever possible. An in-
stallation in horizontal-axial direction (in X-direc-
tionj is not permitted; an installation in
horizontal-lateral (Y-directionj is not recom-
mended.
Flange and screw connections
Flexible pipes delivered loosely by MAN Diesel
are fitted with flange connections, for sizes with
DN32 upwards. Smaller sizes are fitted with
screw connections. Each flexible pipe is deliv-
ered complete with counterflanges or, those
smaller than DN32, with weld-on sockets.
Arrangement of the external piping system
Shipyard's pipe system must be exactly ar-
ranged so that the flanges or screw connections
do fit without lateral or angular offset. Therefore
it is recommended to adjust the final position of
the pipe connections after engine alignment is
completed.
Figure 2-57 Arrangement of pipes in system
lnstallation of hoses
ln the case of straight-line-vertical installation, a
suitable distance between the hose connections
has to be chosen, so that the hose is installed
with a sag. The hose must not be in tension dur-
ing operation. To meet a correct sag in a
straight-line-vertically installed hose, the dis-
tance between the connected hose connections
(hose installed, engine stoppedj has to be ap-
prox. 5 % shorter as the same distance of the
unconnected hose (unconnected hose without
sagj.
ln case it is unavoidable (this is not recommend-
edj to connect the hose in lateral-horizontal di-
rection (Y-directionj the hose must be installed
preferably with a 90 arc. The minimum bending
radii, specified in our drawings, are to be ob-
served.
Never twist the hoses during installation. Turna-
ble lapped flanges on the hoses avoid this.
Where screw connections are used, steady the
hexagon on the hose with a wrench while fitting
the nut.
Comply with all installation instructions of the
hose manufacturer.
Depending on the required application rubber
hoses with steel inlet, metal hoses or PTFE-cor-
rugated hose lines are used.
lnstallation of steel compensators
Steel compensators are used for hot media, e.g.
exhaust gas. They can compensate movements
in line and transversal to there centre line, but
they are absolutely unable to compensate twist-
ing movements. Compensators are very stiff
against torsion. For this reason all kind of steel
compensators installed on resilient mounted en-
gines are to be installed in vertical direction.

Note!
Exhaust gas compensators are also used to
compensate thermal expansion. Therefore ex-
haust gas compensators are required for all type
of engine mountings, also for semi-resilient or
rigid mounted engines. But in these cases the
compensators are quite shorter, they are de-
signed only to compensate the thermal expan-
sions and vibrations, but not other dynamic
engine movements.
Angular compensator for fuel oil
The fuel oil compensator, to be used for resilient
mounted engines, can be an angular system
composed of three compensators with different
characteristics. Please observe the installation
instruction indicated on the specific drawing.
Supports of pipes
The flexible pipe must be installed as near as
possible to the engine connection.
On the shipside, directly after the flexible pipe,
the pipe is to be fixed with a sturdy pipe anchor
of higher than normal quality. This anchor must
be capable to absorb the reaction forces of the
flexible pipe, the hydraulic force of the fluid and
the dynamic force
Example for the axial force of a compensator to
be absorbed by the pipe anchor:
Hydraulic force
= (Cross section area of the compensatorj x
(Pressure of the fluid insidej
Reaction force
= (Spring rate of the compensatorj x (Dis-
placement of the comp.j
Axial force
= (Hydraulic forcej + (Reaction forcej
Additionally a sufficient margin has to be ob-
served to consider also pressure peaks and vi-
brations.

2.3 Engine automation
2.3.1 System overview
The monitoring and automation system com-
prises devices directly attached to the engine,
switch cabinets to be set-up in the engine room,
switch cabinets for set-up in the engine control
room as well as operating devices and indicat-
ing instruments.
The system consists of the following compo-
nents:
Signal pick-up and conversion
Local control station (local on enginej
SaCoS (switch cabinets in the engine control
room or engine roomj
Auxiliary cabinet (engine roomj
Uninterrupted power supply (engine control
roomj (optionalj
lndicating and operating panel (in the engine

(wheelhousej (optionalj
Media temperature controllers (engine con-
trol roomj (optionalj
Remote speed indicators (optionalj.
The engine is fully monitored and controlled by
SaCoS (Safety and Control Systemj. Control is
normally performed by means of an operating
and indicating panel installed in the engine con-
trol room console. Local control from the engine
room is also possible. Both operating and indi-
cating panels are part of SaCoS. The connection
between SaCoS and the engine is effected via
permanent wiring.
The electronic speed controller is installed in-
side one of the SaCoS cabinets. The speed con-
trol is subordinate to SaCoS.
The connection between the engine system and
the load management, the plant-specific control
system as well as the alarm system are effected
via the interfaces of SaCoS.
The auxiliary cabinet supplies and controls all
engine-attached electric motors.
The CoCoS-EDS engine diagnosis system is a
computer-controlled system which is supplied
with data by SaCoS and which is suitable for the
connection of up to four engines.

2.3.2 Supply and distribution
The supply of electric power for the automation
and monitoring system is divided into the com-
ponents "power supply" and "distribution".
Power supply is part of the yard's scope of sup-
ply. An uninterrupted power supply module may
be offered as an option

2.3.2.1 Power supply
Power supply for the automation and monitoring
system is to be effected in accordance with the
classification society's requirements for marine
propulsion engines.
For this purpose, an uninterrupted power supply
is required which has to be provided by two in-
dividual supply networks and designed to en-
sure that in case both supply networks fail, the
power supply to the connected systems is guar-
anteed for a sufficiently long period.
2.3.2.2 Distribution, auxiliary drives
The supply to the individual subsystems of Sa-
CoS has to be realised by the yard.
The auxiliary drive cabinet has to be supplied
from the main switchboard. lt is controlled and
monitored by SaCoS and serves the purpose of
controlling the auxiliary drives in the vicinity of
the engine.
The following components are controlled:
Cylinder lubrication
valve lubrication

2.3.3 SaCoS
The Safety and Control System serves for full
monitoring and control of an engine.
SaCoS comprises:
two control cabinets that contain the inde-
pendent subsystems safety system, engine
control and alarm pre-processing, and that
are to be set up in the engine control room or
in the engine room.
the operating panels in the engine room and
in the engine control room.
The subsystems safety system, engine control
and alarm pre-processing work completely in-
dependently from one another; however, the ex-
change of information is effected via a common
system bus (Arcnetj.
Each of the subsystems is connected with its
appertaining signal-processing modules.
The SaCoS control cabinets contain all interfac-
es to the other system components and to ex-
ternal systems, i.e.:
Generator protection
Load management
Alarm system/remote control
Pump control
Gear box
Propulsion control system
2.3.3.1 Safety system
The safety system monitors all required operat-
ing data of the engine and initiates the required
actions, i.e. load reduction or engine shut-down
in case the limit values are exceeded. The sys-
tem is designed to ensure that the functions are
achieved in accordance with the classification
societies' requirements for marine propulsion
engines.
The safety system directly monitors emergency
shut-down, speed control and the auxiliary drive
cabinet.
ln addition to the provisions made to permit the
internal initiation of demands, binary and ana-
logue channels have been provided for the initi-
ation of safety functions by external systems:
Emergency engine stop by the generator pro-
tection
Emergency engine stop by the load manage-
ment
Emergency engine stop by the heat recovery
boiler
Emergency stop by manual emergency shut-
down device
Monitoring of the generator windings
Emergency stop by gear box parameters.
Load reduction
Load reduction has to be realised by the propul-
sion control system. Load reductions are only
implemented after preceding alarm initiation by
the subsystem alarm pre-processing, and are
requested by the safety system.
Emergency stop
lf an emergency stop is triggered by the safety
system, the emergency stop signal has an im-
mediate effect on the emergency shut-down de-
vice and the speed control. At the same time the
emergency stop is triggered, SaCoS issues a
signal for zero pitch.
Override
Safety actions can be suppressed by the over-
ride function for various parameters. The over-
ride has to be selected before a safety action is
actuated. The scope of parameters prepared for
override are different and depend to the chosen
classification society.
2.3.3.2 Alarm pre-processing

dependently from the safety system. lt monitors

all operating parameters and signals alarms in
case impermissible deviations occur.
Alarm initiation
All impermissible deviations from operating pa-
rameters as well as malfunctions cause alarm si-
gnals to be issued and transmitted to the alarm
systems via a serial bus interface.
2.3.3.3 Engine control
The engine control system controls and moni-
tors all engine functions, the speed control and
the auxiliary drive cabinet.
Starting/stopping sequences
Demands regarding lube oil and cooling water
pumps, monitoring of the prelubrication and
post-cooling period, monitoring of the accelera-
tion period.
Control station switch-over
Switch-over from local operation in the engine
room to remote control from the engine control
room and to the remote control system.
Speed setting
Local and manual speed setting is realised by
the SaCoS operating panels. Automatic remote
speed setting is carried out by the propulsion
control system while remote control is selected
Jet-assist
To improve the response of the engine to a new
load condition, starting air is supplied to the tur-
bocharger via a valve when load is applied.
Pump control
The demands regarding the electric pumps for
lubricating oil and cooling water are issued by
SaCoS. SaCoS also supplies the request signals
for standby start of the lube oil and HT cool-ing
water pumps. The standby and pump logics are
to be realised in an external pump control sys-
tem.
Temperature control
Temperature controllers for various operating
medias are available. For more details, please
refer to chapter "temperature control" or chap-
ter of the respective subsystems.
2.3.3.4 Electronic speed control
The electronic speed governing system includes
the control and regulating devices for the fuel
rack actuator.
The speed governing system effects the ex-
change of all data required for safe and reliable
op-eration with the Safety and Control System.
This data exchange is carried out via hardware
connections. There is no direct connection be-
tween the speed control and the superior plant-
specific control system. Communication with
the plant-specific control system takes place via
SaCoS exclusively.
Speed setting
An influence on speed is exerted by SaCoS. ln
case of remote control, a set-point input by the
plant-specific control system is possible either
by means of binary contacts (e.g. for synchroni-
sationj or alternatively by an active 4-20mA an-
alogue signal via SaCoS.
ln the case of local control, speed alteration is
only possible at the local engine control stand.
Operating modes
The following operating modes are available as
a standard:
lsochronous
Droop (with a 5-percent speed increase when
reducing load from nominal load to no load,
as a standardj.
The operating mode is preselected via the Sa-
CoS interface and has to be defined during the
application period.
Details regarding special operating modes on
request.

Load sharing
ln the case of multi-engine plants, load sharing
is effected by a droop function. ln the isochro-
nous operating mode, load distribution is possi-
ble by direct intercommunication between the
speed governors.
lnterfaces
The speed governing system is supplied with
electric power of the required voltage from the
power supply cabinet. Cabling is to be done by
the yard.
The connection of the speed control cabinet
with the actuators on the engine is to be carried
out by the yard. The restrictions with regard to
the length of these connecting lines mentioned
under item 2 are to be observed.
The connection to SaCoS is realised by means
of a prefabricated cable set.
2.3.3.5 Operation

2.3.4 Temperature control
To ensure trouble-free engine operation, various
media have to be controlled.
HT cooling water temperature control
The temperature control is effected by a sepa-
rate temperature controller.
The temperature control is equipped with a per-
formance-related feedforward control in order to
ensure best possible control accuracy.
The controller has to be mounted at the engine
control room desk and is to be wired to the Sa-
CoS cabinets and to the temperature control
valve.
LT cooling water temperature control
The temperature control is effected by a sepa-
rate temperature controller.
The temperature control is equipped with a per-
formance-related feedforward control in order to
ensure best possible control accuracy.
The controller has to be mounted at the engine
control room desk and is to be wired to the Sa-
CoS cabinets and to the temperature control
valve.
Charge-air temperature control
The design of the charge air temperature control
depends on the engine; its structure is identical
with that of the HT cooling water temperature
control.
Control of the cooling water quantity takes place
in the LT part of the charge-air cooler (see cool-
ing water systemj.
The controller has to be mounted at the engine
control room desk and is to be wired to the Sa-
CoS cabinets and to the temperature control
valve.
Lube oil temperature control
The temperature control is effected by a sepa-
rate temperature controller.
The temperature control is equipped with a per-
formance-related feedforward control in order to
ensure best possible control accuracy.
The controller has to be mounted at the engine
control room desk and is to be wired to the Sa-
CoS cabinets and to the temperature control
valve.

2.3.5 lnterfaces
The automation and control system consists of
several interfaces to external systems.
Machinery alarm system
Propulsion control system
Gear box
Pump control
Remote control system
Machinery alarm system
Hardware
The main connection between SaCoS and the
machinery alarm system is implemented as se-
rial interface RS232 or RS422/RS485
RS422/RS485 - Standard 5 wire with electri-
cal isolation (cable length 100mj
RS232 - Standard, no electrical isolation (ca-
ble length < 10mj.
Software
The software interface is realised with a MOD-
BUS RTU protocol whereby the SaCoS-system
acts as MODBUS Slave.
All measured values of the engine are provided
as floating-point data words in a fixed register.
All pre-alarms, load reduction, shutdown and
status information from the SaCoS system are
also available as single bits in this register.
Propulsion control system
The interface to the propeller system is carried
out as hardwired interface. Signals for safety ac-
tions and control function as well as clutch con-
trol functions are exchanged.
Gear box
The interface includes all necessary signals for
gear box control by the main engine. Alarm in-
dications of the gear box have to be realised by
the machinery alarm system directly.
Pump control
SaCoS sends request signal for oil and cooling
water pumps to the pump control panel.
Remote control system
For various applications free programmable sig-
nals can be used at a separate interface.

2.3.7 lnstallation requirements
Location
The cabinets for engine control and safety sys-
tem are designed for installation in clean and
non hazardous areas like control rooms. Both
cabinets should be located side by side.
The cable length between the engine and the
SaCoS cabinets is limited to 60 meters.
The power stack cabinet is designed for engine
room installation. For some speed governor
types the cable length between the engine and
the power stack cabinet is limited to 15 meters.
Please refer also to the chapter engine room
planning.
All cabinets must be installed at a location suit-
able for service inspection.
Do not install the cabinets close to devices gen-
erating heat.
ln case of installation at walls, the distance be-
tween cabinet and wall has to be at least
100 mm in order to make air convection possi-
ble.
For installation in engine rooms the cabinets
should be supplied with fresh air by the engine
room ventilation.
lf the restrictions for ambient temperature can
not be kept, the cabinets have to be ordered
with an optional air condition system.
Ambient conditions
For restrictions of ambient conditions please re-
fer to the Chapter 2.3.6 "Technical data", Page
2-141
Cabling
The interconnection cables between the engine
and the SACOS cabinets have to be installed
according to the rules of electromagnetic com-
patibility. Control cables and power cables have
to be routed in seperate cable ducts.
The bending radius for installation of the pre-
manufactured SaCoS-cables is not allowed to
be less than 180 mm.
The cables for the connection of sensors and
actuators which are not mounted on the engine
are not included in the scope of MAN Diesel
supply. For the cabling of sensors shielded ca-
bles have to be used.
For electrical noise protection, an electric
ground connection must be made from each
cabinet to the ship's hull.
All cabling between the power stack cabinet and
the controlled device is scope of yard supply.
The cabinets are equipped with spring loaded
terminal clamps. All wiring to external systems
should be carried out without conductor
sleeves.
lnstallation works
During the installation period the yard has to
protect the cabinets against water, dust and fire.
lt is not allowed to do any welding works near
the cabinets. The cabinets have to be fixed to
the floor or to the walls by means of screws.
lf it is inevitable to do welding works near the
cabinet, the cabinets and panels have to be pro-
tected against heat, electric current and electro-
magnetic influences. For protection against
current, all cabling has to be disconnected from
the affected components.
lnstallation of additional components inside the
cabinets is allowed upon approval by the re-
sponsible project manager of MAN Diesel only.

2.3.9 OvERRlDE function
General
For marine plants, the principle "ship ranks be-
fore engine" applies in emergency cases. ln
dangerous situations, e.g. in case of possible
averages, the protection of the ship has priority
over engine protection.
With the valuation "ship ranks before engine",
slow-down or shut-down signals (with the ex-
ception of the "Overspeed" signalj can be sup-
pressed by the function OvERRlDE.
An abuse of this function with consequential
damage to the engine or in its surroundings re-
lieifes MAN Diesel from any liability.
Cases for OvERRlDE
Possible average situations
Bad weather conditions resulting in danger
for the ship
Dangerous waters (e.g., fjords, harbours,
channelsj
Slow-down and stop alarms that must not be
suppressed by OvERRlDE
Overspeed
Manual stop switches remain operable
Additional alarms in accordance with the re-
quirements of the classification societies
(such as, e.g., OMD (oil mist detectorj, as
specified by the classification society LRSj.
Consequences of OvERRlDE
The alarm printer prints date and time of the
OvERRlDE activation
Engines, which have been stopped by auto-
matic controll, can be restarted.
lt is to be clearly indicated by visual warning
signals in the engine control room and in eve-
ry room, where OvERRlDE activation is pos-
sible, that the engine is being operated in the
OvERRlDE mode.
Slow-down and/or shut-down alarms are an-
nounced by visual and audible warning sig-
nals, and the text "Reduce load" and/or
"Stop engine".
Suppressed slow-down and shut-down sig-
nals are continued to be printed by the alarm
printer with an indication that the OvERRlDE
function has been activated.
Slow-down and shut-down signals, which
are released and suppressed after the OvER-
RlDE function has been activated, do not
have any impact on engine operation.
Caution!
A stop alarm that has already been released can
no longer be suppressed by the subsequent ac-
tivation of the OvERRlDE function.
Realisation of the OvERRlDE function
ln the alarm and safety system, the realisation of
the OvERRlDE function is effected in a part,
which is clearly separated from the actual func-
tions of the program.
Exemption from liability
The responsibility for the activation of the OvER-
RlDE function lies with the operator.
Because engine monitoring is not working while
the OvERRlDE function is activated, MAN Diesel
can, in principle, not accept any liability for inju-
ries to persons and damage to property, which
are due to this fact.

3.1 Quality requirements for lube oil (Otto-gas and dual-fuel
operationj
Lube oil for pure gas mode operation
For four-stroke dual-fuel engines (running mainly
on gasj and gas engines, a special gas engine oil
with an additive package having a low percent-
age of ashes is to be used due to the high spe-
cific power output and the extensive
requirements placed on the lube oil for lubricat-
ing the running gear, the cylinders, the turbo-
chargers and for cooling the pistons.
Only lube oils, which have been released by
MAN Diesel, are to be used. These are listed in
Table 3-35, Page 3-4
Requirements
Base oil
The base oil must be a narrow distillation cut
and must be refined in accordance with modern
procedures. Brightstocks, if contained, must
neither adversely affect the thermal nor the oxi-
dation stability
The base oil must, particularly as far as its aging
stability is concerned, meet the following limit
values:
Table 3-34 Lube oil (Otto-gas and dual-fuel operationj - parameters to be adhered to
Doped lube oil
The base oil, which has been blended with addi-
tives, (doped lube oilj must have the following
properties:
Additives
The additive package must be matched in itself
and to the base oil in such a way that by oxi-po-
lymerisation and addition of nitrogen oxide to
the hydrocarbon there is no negative influence
on the service time of the oil filling. The additives
must be of such a composition that an absolute
minimum of ash remains as residue after com-
bustion. The ash must be soft. The sulphate ash
content must not exceed 1%. The additives
must not promote clogging of the filter elements,
neither in their active nor in their exhausted
state.

Cleaning and neutralisation abilities
The cleaning, sludge-carrying and especially the
neutralisation abilities (ASTM-D2896j must, re-
lated to the used gas quality, be sufficient. ln the
case of dual-fuel engines, which can also be op-
erated in pure Diesel operation, also the main
fuel and pilot fuel quality are to be considered
when choosing the oil.
lf the dual-fuel engine is exclusively operated on
Diesel fuel or if the portion of Diesel fuel opera-
tion is >40%, we recommend using a lubricating
oil with a higher BN (12 - 15 mgKOH/gj because
of the fuel's sulphur content. For dual-fuel en-
gine see chapter Quality of lube oil for operation
on gas oil and Diesel oil (MGO/MDOj.
For a dual-fuel engine that has been converted
for operation on HFO, the lubricating oil accord-
ing to chapter Quality of lube oil for heavy fuel oil
operation (HFOj.
Gas engine oils must, related to the Diesel per-
formance, fulfil the same requirements as lube
oils for Diesel engines, i.e. MlL-L 2104 D or APl
CD.
During the warranty period of the engine, only a
lube oil which is approved by MAN Diesel may
be used. The conditions for approval are availa-
ble on request.
Evaporation tendency
The evaporation tendency must be as low as
possible, otherwise the oil consumption is ad-
versely affected.
Further prerequisites
The lube oil must not form a stable emulsion
with water. Less than 40 ml emulsion are accept-
able in the ASTM-D 1401 test after one hour.
The foaming behaviour (ASTM-D892j must meet
the following condition: less than 20 ml after 10
minutes. The lube oil must not contain agents to
improve the viscosity index. Fresh oil must not
contain any water or any other impurities.
Lube oil additives
We urgently advise against subsequently adding
additives to the lube oil or mixing different
makes of lube oil, as the performance of the
carefully matched package of additives, which is
suiting itself and adapted to the base oil, may be
upset. Thus, the lube oil supplier is no longer re-
sponsible for the lube oil.
Selection of lube oils/warranty
Most of the mineral oil companies are in close
and permanent consultation with the engine
manufacturers and are therefore in a position to
quote the oil from their own product line that has
been approved by the engine manufacturer for
the given application. lndependent of this re-
lease, the lube oil manufacturer is in any case re-
sponsible for the efficiency of his product. ln
case of doubt, we are more than willing to pro-
vide you with further information.
Examinations
Lube oil examinations are carried out in our
chemical laboratory for our customers at cost
price. For this purpose, a representative sample
of approx. 1 litre is required.

3.2 Quality of lube oil for operation on gas oil and Diesel oil
(MGO/MDOj
The specific power output offered by today's
Diesel engines and the use of fuels which more
and more often approach the limit in quality in-
crease the requirements placed on the lube oil
and make it imperative that the lube oil is chosen
carefully. Doped lube oils (HD oilsj have proven
to be suitable for lubricating the running gear,
the cylinder, the turbocharger and for the cooling
of the pistons. Doped lube oils contain additives
which, amongst other things, provide them with
sludge carrying, cleaning and neutralisation ca-
pabilities.
Only lube oils, which have been released by
MAN Diesel, are to be used. These are listed in
Table 3-38, Page 3-7.
Note!
For Dual-fuel engines which will be operated ei-
ther on gas fuel or on Diesel oil fuel we recom-
mend to use a quality of lube oil with a Base
Number (BNj from 12-15.
Specifications
Base oil
The base oil (doped lube oil = basic oil + addi-
tivesj must be a narrow distillation cut and must
be refined in accordance with modern proce-
dures. Bright stocks, if contained, must neither
adversely affect the thermal nor the oxidation
stability. The base oil must meet the limit values
as specified in Table 3-36, Page 3-5, particularly
as concerns its aging stability.
Doped lube oils (HD-oilsj
The base oil for which additives have been
mixed (doped lube oilj must demonstrate the fol-
lowing characteristics:
Additives
The additives must be dissolved in the oil and
must be of such a composition that an absolute
minimum of ash remains as residue after com-
bustion. The ash must be soft. lf this prerequisite
is not complied with, increased deposits are to
be expected in the combustion chamber, espe-
cially at the outlet valves and in the inlet housing
of the turbochargers. Hard additive ash pro-
motes pitting on the valves seats, as well as
burnt-out valves and increased mechanical
wear.
Additives must not facilitate clogging of the filter
elements, neither in their active nor in their ex-
hausted state.

Detergency
The detergency must be so high that coke and
tar-like residues occurring when fuel is com-
busted must not build-up.
Dispersancy
The dispersancy must be selected such that
commercially available lube-oil cleaning equip-
ment can remove the detrimental contamination
from the used oil.
Neutralisation capacity
The neutralisation capacity (ASTM-D2896j must
be so high that the acidic products which result
during combustion are neutralised. The reaction
time of the additives must be matched to the
process in the combustion chamber.
Evaporation tendency
The tendency to evaporate must be as low as
possible, otherwise the oil consumption is ad-
versely affected.
Further conditions
The lube oil must not form a stable emulsion
with water. Less than 40ml emulsion are accept-
able in the ASTM-D1410 test after one hour.
The foaming behaviour (ASTM-D892j must meet
the following conditions: after 10 minutes
<20ml. The lube oil must not contain agents to
improve viscosity index. Fresh oil must not con-
tain any water or other contamination.
Lube oil selection
Doped grade
Doped lube oils (HD oilsj corresponding to inter-
national specifications MlL-L 2104 or APl-CD,
and having a Base Number (BNj of 12 - 15
mg KOH/g are recommended by us (Designa-
tion for armed forces of Germany: O-278j.
The content of additives included in the lube oil
depends upon the conditions under which the
engine is operated, and the quality of fuel used.
lf marine Diesel fuel is used, which has a sulphur
content of up to 2.0 weight % as per lSO-F
DMC, and coke residues of up to 2.5 weight %
as per Conradson, a BN of approx. 20 is of ad-
vantage. Ultimately, the operating results are the
decisive criterion as to which content of addi-
tives ensures the most economic mode of en-
gine operation.
Cylinder lube oil
ln the case of engines with separate cylinder lu-
brication, the pistons and the cylinder liner are
supplied with lube oil by means of a separate oil
pump. The oil supply rate is factory-set to con-
form to both the quality of the fuel to be used in
service and to the anticipated operating condi-
tions.
A lube oil as specified above is to be used for the
cylinder and the lubricating circuit.
Speed governor
ln case of mechanic-hydraulic governors with
separate oil sump, multi grade oil 5W-40 is pref-
erably used. lf this oil is not available for top-
ping-up, an oil 15W-40 may exceptionally be
used. ln this context it makes no difference
whether multicoloured oils based on synthetic or
mineral oil are used. According to the mineral oil
companies they can be mixed in any case. (Des-
ignation for armed forces of Germany: O-236j
The oil quality specified by the manufacturer is
to be used for the remaining equipment fitted to
the engine.

3.3 Quality of lube oil for heavy fuel oil operation (HFOj
The specific power output offered by today's
Diesel engines and the use of fuels which more
and more often approach the acceptable limit in
quality increase the requirements placed on the
lube oil and make it imperative that the lube oil
is chosen carefully. Medium-alkaline lube oils
have proven to be suitable for lubricating the
running gear, the cylinders, the turbocharger
and, if applicable, for the cooling of the pistons.
Medium-alkaline oils contain additives which,
amongst other things, provided them with a
higher neutralising capacity than doped (HDj en-
gine oils have.
No international specifications exist for medium-
alkaline lube oils. An adequately long trial oper-
ation in compliance with the manufacturer's in-
structions is therefore necessary.
Only lube oils, which have been released by
MAN Diesel, are to be used. These are listed in
Table 3-42, Page 3-12.
Requirements
Base oil
The base oil (medium-alkaline lube oil = base oil
+ additivesj must be a narrow distillation cut and
must be refined in accordance with modern pro-
cedures. Bright stocks, if contained, must nei-
ther adversely affect the thermal nor the
oxidation stability.
The base oil must meet the limit values given in
Table 3-39, Page 3-9, particularly as concerns
its aging stability.
Medium-alkaline lube oil
The base oil with which additives have been
mixed must demonstrate the following charac-
teristics.
Additives
The additives must be dissolved in the oil and
must be of such a composition that an absolute
minimum of ash remains as residue after com-
bustion, even though the engine were run on
distillate fuel temporarily. The ash must be soft.
lf this prerequisite is not complied with, in-
creased deposits are to be expected in the com-
bustion space, especially at the exhaust valves
and in the inlet housing of the turbochargers.
Hard additive ash promotes pitting on the valve
seats, as well as burnt-out valves and increased
mechanical wear in the cylinder space.
Additives must not facilitate clogging of the filter
elements, neither in their active nor in their ex-
hausted state.

Detergency
The detergency must be so high that the build-
up of coke and tar-like residues on combustion
of the HFO is precluded.
Dispersancy
The dispersancy must be selected such that
commercially available lube-oil cleaning equip-
ment can remove the detremental contamina-
tions from the used oil, i.e. the used oil must
have good separating and filtering properties.
Diesel-Performance
The Diesel performance (without taking the neu-
tralisation ability into considerationj must, at
least, comply with MlL-L-21014 D resp. APl-CD.
Neutralisation capacity
The neutralisation capacity (ASTM-D2896j must
be so high that the acidic products of combus-
tion are neutralised at the lube oil consumption
rate that is specific for the engine. The reaction
time of the additives must be matched to the
process in the combustion chamber. Hints con-
cerning the selection of the BN are given in Table
3-41, Page 3-11.
Evaporation tendency
The tendency to evaporate must be as low as
possible, otherwise the oil consumption is ad-
versely affected.
Further conditions
The lube oil must not form a stable emulsion
with water. Less than 40ml emulsion are accept-
able in the ASTM-D1410 test after one hour. The
foaming behaviour (ASTM-D892j must meet the
following conditions: after 10 minutes <20ml.
The lube oil must not contain agents to improve
viscosity index. Fresh oil must not contain any
water or other contamination.
Lube oil selection
Neutralisation property (BNj
Medium-alkaline lube oils having differently high
levels of neutralisation capacity (BNj are availa-
ble on the market. According to the present-day
state of knowledge, operating conditions to be
expected and BN can be correlated as shown in
Table 3-41, Page 3-11. The operating resulting
will in the essence be the decisive criterion as to
which BN will ensure the most economic mode
of engine operation.
Cylinder lube oil
ln the case of engines with separate cylinder lu-
brication, the pistons and the cylinder liner are
supplied with lube oil by means of a separate oil
pump. The oil supply rate is factory-set to con-

separate oil sump, multi grade oil 5W-40 is pref-
erably used. lf this oil is not available as refill, an
oil 15W-40 can be used for once. ln this context
it is not important, if multi grade oils based on
synthetic or mineral oil are used. According to
the mineral oil companies they can be mixed in
all cases.
The oil quality specified by the manufacturer is
to be used for the remaining equipment fitted to
the engine.
Lube-oil additives
We advise against subsequently adding addi-
tives to the lube oil, or mixing the different
makes (brandsj of the lube oil, as the perform-
ance of the carefully matched package of addi-
tives which is suiting itself and adapted to the
base oil, may be upset. Also, the lube oil compa-
ny (oil supplierj is no longer responsible for the
oil.
Selection of lube oils / warranty
Most of the mineral oil companies are in close
and permanent consultation with the engine
manufacturers and are therefore in a the position
to quote the oil from their own product line that
has been approved by the engine manufacturer
for the given application. lndependent of this re-
lease, the lube oil manufacturers are in any case
responsible for quality and performance of their
products. ln case of doubt, we are more than
willing to provide you with further information.
Examinations
We carry out the investigations on lube oil in our
laboratories for our customers who need only
pay the self-costs (net-costsj. A representative
sample of about 1litre is required for the exami-
nation.

3.4 Quality of engine cooling water
Preliminary remarks
The engine cooling water, like the fuel and lubri-
cating oil, is a medium which must be carefully
selected, treated and controlled. Otherwise, cor-
rosion, erosion and cavitation may occur on the
walls of the cooling system in contact with water
and deposits may form. Deposits impair the heat
transfer and may result in thermal overload on
the components to be cooled. The treatment
with an anti-corrosion agent has to be effected
before the first commissioning of the plant. Dur-
ing subsequent operations the concentration
specified by the engine manufacturer must al-
ways be ensured. ln particular, this applies if a
chemical additive is used.
Requirements
Limiting values
The characteristics of the untreated cooling wa-
ter must be within the following limits:
1j
1dH (German hardnessj:
10mg CaO/litre
17.9mg CaCO
3
/litre
0.357mval/litre
0.179mmol/litre
2j
1 mg/l 1 ppm
Test device
The MAN Diesel water test kit includes devices
permitting, i.a., to determine the above-men-
tioned water characteristics in a simple manner.
Moreover, the manufacturer of anti-corrosion
agents are offering test devices that are easy to
operate. As to checking the cooling water con-
dition, see Chapter 3.5 "Checking cooling wa-
ter", Page 3-21.
Supplementary information
Distillate
lf a distillate (from the freshwater generator for
instancej or fully desalinated water (ion ex-
changerj is available, this should preferably be
used as engine cooling water. These waters are
free from lime and metal salts, i.e. major depos-
its affecting the heat transfer to the cooling wa-
ter and worsening the cooling effect cannot
form. These waters, however, are more corro-
sive than normal hard water since they do not
form a thin film of lime on the walls which pro-
vides a temporary protection against corrosion.
This is the reason why water distillates must be
treated with special care and the concentration
of the additive is to be periodically checked.
Hardness
The total hardness of the water is composed of
temporary and permanent hardness. lt is largely
determined by calcium and magnesium salts.
The temporary hardness is determined by the
hydrogen carbon content of the calcium and
magnesium salts. The permanent hardness can
be determined from the remaining calcium and
magnesium salts (sulphatesj. The decisive fac-
tor for the formation of calcareous deposits in
the cooling system is the temporary (carbonatej
hardness.
Water with more than 10dH (German total hard-
nessj must be mixed with distillate or be sof-
tened. A rehardening of excessively soft water is

only necessary to suppress foaming if an emul-
sifiable anti-corrosion oil is used.
Damage in the cooling water system
Corrosion
Corrosion is an electro-chemical process which
can largely be avoided if the correct water qual-
ity is selected and the water in the engine cool-
ing system is treated carefully.
Flow cavitation
Flow cavitation may occur in regions of high flow
velocity and turbulence. lf the evaporation pres-
sure is fallen below, steam bubbles will form
which then collapse in regions of high pressure,
thus producing material destruction in closely
limited regions.
Erosion
Erosion is a mechanical process involving mate-
rial abrasion and destruction of protective films
by entrapped solids, especially in regions of ex-
cessive flow velocities or pronounced turbulenc-
es.
Corrosion fatigue
Corrosion fatigue is a damage caused by simul-
taneous dynamic and corrosive stresses. lt may
induce crack formation and fast crack propaga-
tion in water-cooled, mechanically stressed
components if the cooling water is not treated
correctly.
Treatment of the engine cooling water
The purpose of engine cooling water treatment
is to produce a coherent protective film on the
walls of the cooling spaces by the use of anti-
corrosion agents so as to prevent the above-
mentioned damage. A significant prerequisite
for the anti-corrosion agent to develop its full ef-
fectively is that the untreated water which is
used satisfies the demands mentioned under
"Requirements", Page 3-13.
Protecting films can be produced by treating the
cooling water with a chemical anti-corrosion
agent or emulsifiable anti-corrosion oil.
Emulsifiable anti-corrosion oils fall more and
more out of use since, on the one hand, their use
is heavily restricted by environmental protection
legislation and, on the other hand, the suppliers
have, for these and other reasons, commenced
to take these products out of the market.
Treatment before operating the engine for the
first time
Treatment with an anti-corrosion agent should
be done before the engine is operated for the
first time so as to prevent irreparable initial dam-
age.
Warning!
lt is not allowed to operate the engine without
cooling water treatment.
Cooling water additives
No other additives than those approved by MAN
Diesel and listed in Table 3-44, Page 3-18 up to
Table 3-47, Page 3-20.
Permission required
A cooling water additive can be approved for
use if it has been tested according to the latest
rules of the Forschungsvereinigung verbren-
nungskraftmaschinen (Fvvj, "Testing the suita-
bility of coolant additives for cooling liquids of
internal combustion engines" (Fvv publication R
443/1986j. The test report is to be presented if
required. The necessary testing is carried out by
Staatliche Materialprfanstalt, Department
Oberflchentechnik, Grafenstrae 2, 64283
Darmstadt on request.

To be used only in closed circuits
Additives can only be used in closed circuits
where no appreciable consumption occurs ex-
cept leakage and evaporation losses.
Chemical additives
Additives based on sodium nitrite and sodi-
um borate, etc. have given good results. Gal-
vanised iron pipes or zinc anodes providing
cathodic protection in the cooling systems
must not be used. Please note that this kind
of corrosion protection, on the one hand, is
not required since cooling water treatment is
specified and, on the other hand, considering
the cooling water temperatures commonly
practised nowadays, it may lead to potential
inversion. lf necessary, the pipes must be
dezinced.
Anti-corrosion oil
This additive is an emulsifiable mineral oil
mixed with corrosion inhibitors. A thin protec-
tive oil film which prevents corrosion without
obstructing the transfer of heat and yet pre-
venting calcareous deposits forms on the
walls of the cooling system.
Emulsifiable anti-corrosion oils have nowa-
days lost importance. For reasons of environ-
mental protection legislation and because of
occasionally occurring emulsion stability
problems, they are hardly used any more.
The manufacturer must guarantee the stabili-
ty of the emulsion with the water available or
has to prove this stability by presenting em-
pirical values from practical operation. lf a
completely softened water is used, the possi-
bility of preparing a stable, non-foaming
emulsion must be checked in cooperation
with the supplier of the anti-corrosion oil or by
the engine user himself. Where required, add-
ing an anti-foam agent or hardening (see
Chapter 3.5 "Checking cooling water", Page
3-21j is recommended. Anti-corrosion oil is
not suitable if the cooling water may reach
temperatures below 0C or above 90C. lf so,
an anti-freeze or chemical additive is to be
used.
Anti-freeze agent
lf temperatures below the freezing point of
water may be reached in the engine, in the
cooling system or in parts of it, an anti-freeze
agent simultaneously acting as a corrosion
inhibitor must be added to the cooling water.
Otherwise the entire system must be heated.
(Designation for armed forces of Germany:
Sy-7025j.
Sufficient corrosion protection will be
achieved by admixing the products listed in
Table 3-47, Page 3-20 taking care that the
specified concentration is observed. This
concentration will prevent freezing down to a
temperature of about -22C. The quantity of
anti-freeze actually required, however, also
depends on the lowest temperatures expect-
ed at the site.
Anti-freeze agents are generally based on
ethylene glycol. A suitable chemical additive
must be admixed if the concentration of the
anti-freeze specified by the manufacturer for
a certain application does not suffice to af-
ford adequate corrosion protection or if, due
to less stringent requirementswith redard to
protection from freezing, a lower concentra-
tion of anti-freeze agent is used than would
be required to achieve sufficient corrosion
protection. The manufacturer must be con-
tacted for information on the compatibility of
the agent with the anti-freeze and the con-
centration required. The compatibility of the
chemical additives stated in Table 3-44, Page
3-18 with anti-freeze agents based on ethyl-
ene glycol is confirmed. Anti-freeze agents
may only be mixed with each other with the
supplier's or manufacturer's consent, even if
the composition of these agents is the same.
Prior to the use of an anti-freeze agent, the
cooling system is to be cleaned thoroughly.
lf the cooling water is treated with an emulsi-
fiable anti-corrosion oil, no anti-freeze may
be admixed, as otherwise the emulsion is
broken and oil sludge is formed in the cooling
system.

For the disposal of cooling water treated with
additives, observe the environmental protec-
tion legislation. For information, contact the
suppliers of the additives.
Biocides
lf the use of a biocide is inevitable because
the cooling water has been contaminated by
bacteria, the following has to be observed:
- lt has to be ensured that the biocide suita-
ble for the particular application is used.
- The biocide must be compatible with the
sealing materials used in the cooling water
system; it must not attack them.
- Neither the biocide nor its decomposition
products contain corrosion-stimulated
constituents. Biocides whose decomposi-
tion results in chloride or sulphate ions are
not permissible.
- Biocides due to the use of which the cool-
ing water tends to foam are not permissi-
ble.
Prerequisites for efficient use of an anti-corro-
sion agent
Clean cooling system
Before starting the engine for the first time and
after repairs to the piping system, it must be en-
sured that the pipes, tanks, coolers and other
equipment outside the engine are free from rust
and other deposits because dirt will considera-
bly reduce the efficiency of the additive. The en-
tire system has therefore to be cleaned using an
appropriate cleaning agent with the engine shut
down (see MAN Diesel Work Card 000.03 and
Chapter 3.6 "Cleaning cooling water", Page
3-25j.
Loose solid particles, in particular, have to be re-
moved from the system by intense flushing be-
cause otherwise erosion may occur at points of
high flow velocities.
The agent used for cleaning must not attack the
materials and the sealants in the cooling system.
This work is in most cases done by the supplier
of the cooling water additive, at least the suppli-
er can make available the suitable products for
this purpose. lf this work is done by the engine
user it is advisable to make use of the services
of an expert of the cleaning agent supplier. The
cooling system is to be flushed thoroughly after
cleaning. The engine cooling water is to be treat-
ed with an anti-corrosion agent immediately af-
terwards. After restarting the engine, the
cleaned system has to be checked for any leak-
ages.
Periodical checks of the condition of the cooling
water and cooling system
Treated cooling water may become contaminat-
ed in service and the additive will loose some of
its effectively as a result. lt is therefore neces-
sary to check the cooling system and the condi-
tion of the cooling water at regular intervals.
The additive concentration is to be checked at
least once a week, using the test kit prescribed
by the supplier. The results are to be recorded.
Note!
The concentrations of chemical additives must
not be less than the minimum concentrations
stated in Table 3-44, Page 3-18.
Concentrations that are too low may promote
corrosive effects and have therefore to be avoid-
ed. Concentrations that are too high do not
cause damages. However, concentrations more
than double as high should be avoided for eco-
nomical reasons.
A cooling water sample is to be sent to an inde-
pendent laboratory or to the engine supplier for
making a complete analysis every 3 - 6 months.
For emulsifiable anti-freeze agents , the supplier
generally prescribes renewal of the water after
approx. 12 months. On such renewal, the entire
cooling system is to be flushed, or if required to
be cleaned (also see Chapter 3.6 "Cleaning
cooling water", Page 3-25j. The fresh charge of

water is to be submitted to treatment immedi-
ately.
lf chemical additives or anti-freeze agents are
used, the water should be changed after three
years at the latest.
lf excessive concentrations of solids (rustj are
found, the water charge has to be renewed com-
pletely, and the entire system has to be thor-
oughly cleaned.
The causes of deposits in the cooling system
may be leakages entering the cooling water,
breaking of the emulsion, corrosion in the sys-
tem and calcareous deposits due to excessive
water hardness. An increase in the chloride ion
content generally indicates sea water leakage.
The specified maximum of 50mg/kg of chloride
ions must not be exceeded, since otherwise the
danger of corrosion will increase. Exhaust gas
leakage into the cooling water may account for
a sudden drop in the pH value or an increase of
the sulphate content.
Water losses are to be made up for by adding
untreated water which meets the quality de-
mands according to "Requirements", Page
3-13. The concentration of the anti-corrosion
agent has subsequently to be checked and cor-
rected if necessary.
Checks of the cooling water are especially nec-
essary whenever repair and servicing work has
been done in connection with which the cooling
water was drained.
Protective measures
Anti-corrosion agents contain chemical com-
pounds which may cause health injuries if
wrongly handled. The indications in the safety
data sheets of the manufacturers are to be ob-
served.
Prolonged, direct contact with the skin should
be avoided. Thoroughly wash your hands after
use. Also, if a larger amount has been splashed
onto the clothing and / or wetted it, the clothing
should be changed and washed before being
worn again.
lf chemicals have splashed into the eyes, imme-
diately wash with plenty of water and consult a
doctor.
Anti-corrosion agents are a contaminating load
for the water in general. Cooling water must
therefore not be disposed off by pouring it into
the sewage system without prior consultation
with the competent local authorities. The re-
spective legal regulations have to be observed.

The water hardness is reduced by 1dGH if the
following quantities of chemicals are added to

- approx. 40g anhydrous trisodium phos-
phate (Na

j.
Note!
The chemicals are to be dissolved in water, in a
separate tank outside the engine circuit (in order
for the water hardness constituents to be sepa-
rated outside the engine circulation systemj and
subsequently be gradually added via the com-
pensating tank, with the engine running.
Chemicals to increase the water hardness are
virtually insignificant nowadays because emulsi-
fiable anti-corrosion oils are hardly used any
longer. These chemicals only served the pur-
pose of suppressing foaming in such cases.
Check the pH value
lndicator paper, a liquid indicator, or an electron-
ic measuring unit is to be used for measuring.
Make sure to observe the instructions given by
the respective supplier.
The pH value indicates the concentration of hy-
drogen ions and provides a comparative value
for the aggressiveness of the water. lf the pH val-
ue is lower than the specified limit, it can be cor-
rected by adding sodium nitrite (NaNO
2
j or
sodium hydroxide (NaOHj; sodium nitrite should
be given preference. Which quantity is required
depends on the pH value found.
Check the chloride ion content

lf red colouration occurs, the chloride ion con-
tent is less than 50mg/l.
lf the chloride ion content is too high, add water
with a low chloride content (distilled water or to-
tally desalinated waterj until red colouration oc-
curs. Then check once again for hardness and
pH value.
Testkit of the producer of the additive
As far as the testkit of the supplier of the additive
contains testing means to determine the charac-
teristic values of the fresh water, these can be
used.

Check the concentration of chemical additives
The concentration should be checked weekly

accordance with the instructions issued.
A protection by chemical anti-corrosion agents
is only ensured if the concentration is exactly
adhered to. ln this connection, the concentra-
tions recommended by MAN Diesel (see Chap-
ter 3.4 "Quality of engine cooling water", Page

3.6 Cleaning cooling water
Purpose of jobs to be done
Free operating media systems from contamina-
tion/residues, ensure/restore operational relia-
bility.
Brief description
Cooling water systems that show contamination
or deposits impede effective component cooling
and may endanger a stable emulsion of water
and anti-corrosion oil. Contamination and de-
posits are to be removed at regular intervals.
This includes:
cleaning of systems and, if necessary,
removing calcareous deposits
flushing of systems.
Cleaning
The cooling water system has to be checked for
contamination at the specified intervals. lf heav-
ily fouled, immediate cleaning is necessary. This
work should preferably be done by a specialist
firm which will provide the cleansers suitable for
the particular type of deposits and materials
used in the cooling system. Only in the event
that procurement of the services of a specialist
firm is not possible, the cleaning should be per-
formed by the engine operator.
Oil sludge
Oil sludge produced by lube oil entering the
cooling system or by an excessive concentra-
tion of anti-corrosion agents can be removed by
flushing with fresh water, with some cleaning
agent being added. Table 3-50, lists appropriate
agents in alphabetical order. Products of other
manufacturers may be used provided their prop-
erties are comparable. The manufacturer's in-
structions for use are to be strictly observed.
Calcareous and rust deposits
Calcareous and rust deposits may form if exces-
sively hard water or too low a concentration of
anti-corrosion agent has been used in operation.
A thin layer of scale need not be removed as, ac-
cording to experience, this provides protection
against corrosion. Calcareous layers of >0.5mm
in thickness, however, will impede the heat
transfer to an extent which results in thermal
overloading of the components to be cooled.
Rust in the cooling system adversely affects the
stability of the emulsion in case anti-corrosion
oil is being used for cooling water treatment.
Washed-off rust particles can act like an abra-
sive (e. g. on the sealing elements of the water
pumpsj. Together with the water hardness con-
stituents, they form so-called iron sludge which
settles predominantly in areas of low flow rates.
1j
Can also be used in case of short engine operating periods.

Figure 3-61 Cleaning agents for dissolving calcareous scale and rust
ln general, products used for dissolving calcare-
ous scale deposits are also suitable for remov-
ing rust. Table 3-61, lists appropriate agents in
alphabetical order. Products of other manufac-
turers may also be used as long as their proper-
ties are comparable. The manufacturer's
instructions for use are likewise to be strictly ob-
served. Prior to cleaning, check whether the
agent concerned is suitable for the materials to
be cleaned. The agents listed in Table 3-61, are
also suitable for stainless steel
ln case of emergency
Only in exceptional cases, if none of the special
agents the application of which does not
present problems is available, calcareous de-
posits may be removed by using aqueous hy-
drochloric acid or amido sulphur acid as a
means of emergency. The following is to be ob-
served for application:
Heat exchangers made of stainless steel
must never be treated with aqueous hydro-
chloric acid.
Cooling systems containing non-ferrous
metals (aluminium, red brass, brass, etc.j
have to be treated with inhibited amido sul-
phur acid. This acid should be added to the
water at a concentration of 3 - 5%. The tem-
perature should be 40 - 50C.
Aqueous hydrochloric acid may only be used
for cleaning steel pipes. The use of hydro-
chloric acid for system cleaning always in-
volves the risk of acid residues remaining in
the system even after thorough neutralisation
and flushing. Such residues promote corro-
sion pitting. We therefore recommend having
the cleaning operation performed by a firm
specialising in this field.
Carbon dioxide bubbles which form in the disso-
lution process of the calcareous deposits may
obstruct the access of the cleaning agent to the
water scaling. lt is, therefore, absolutely neces-
sary to circulate the water containing the clean-
ing agent so that the gas bubbles are carried
away and can escape. The duration of the clean-
ing process depends on the thickness and com-
position of the deposits. For guide values,
please see Table 3-61.

After cleaning
Following the cleaning of cooling spaces using
cleaning agents, the system has to be flushed
several times. ln doing so, make sure to replace
the water. Where acids have been used for
cleaning, subsequently neutralise the cooling
system with appropriate chemicals, and then
flush it. When this has been done, the system
can be refilled with appropriately treated water.
Warning!
Do not start the cleaning process before the en-
gine has dooled down. Hot engine components
are not allowed to be charged with cold water.
Prior to proceeding to refilling the cooling water
system, make sure that the venting pipes are
open. Clogged venting pipes obstruct the es-
cape of air and involve the danger of thermal
overloading of the engine.
The relevant regulations have to be observed for
the disposal of cleaning agents or acids.

Marine Diesel Oil (MDOj is offered as heavy dis-
tillate (designation lSO-F-DMBj or as a blend of
distillate and small amounts of residual oil (des-
ignation lSO-F-DMCj exclusively for marine ap-
plications. The commonly used term for the
blend, which is of dark brown to black colour, is
Blended MDO. MDO is produced from crude oil
and must be free from organic acids.
Specification
The usability of a fuel depends upon the engine
design and available cleaning facilities as well as
on the conformity of the key properties with
those listed in the table below which refer to the
condition on delivery.
The key properties have been established to a
great extent on the basis of lSO 8217-1996 and
ClMAC-2003. The key properties are based on
the test methods specified.

Supplementary information
At transshipment facilities and in transit MDO is
handled like residual oil. Thus, there is the pos-
sibility of oil being mixed with high-viscosity fuel
oil or lnterfuel, for example with remainders of
such fuels in the bunkering boat, which may ad-
versely affect the key properties considerably.
The fuel shall be free of used lubricating oil
(ULOj. A fuel shall be considered to be free of
ULO if one or more of the elements Zn, P and Ca
are below the specified limits (Zn: 15 ppm;
P: 15 ppm; Ca: 30 ppmj.
The Pour Point indicates the temperature at
which the oil will refuse to flow. The lowest tem-
perature the fuel oil may assume in the system,
should lie approx. 10C above the pour point so
as to ensure it can still be pumped.
The recommended fuel viscosity at the inlet of
the injection pump is 10 ... 14mm
2
/s.
lf Blended MDOs (lSO-F-DMCj of differing bun-
kering are being mixed, incompatibility may re-
sult in sludge formation in the fuel system, a
large amount of sludge in the separator, clog-
ging of filters, insufficient atomization and a
large amount of combustion deposits. We would
therefore recommend to run dry the respective
fuel storage tank as far as possible before bun-
kering new fuel.
Sea water, in particular, tends to increase corro-
sion in the fuel oil system and hot corrosion of
exhaust valves and in the turbocharger. lt is also
the cause of insufficient atomization and thus
poor mixture formation and combustion with a
high proportion of combustion residues.
Solid foreign matter increase the mechanical
wear and formation of ash in the cylinder space.
lf the engine is mainly run on Blended MDO i.e.
lSO-F-DMC, we recommend to provide a cen-
trifugal separator upstream of the fuel oil filter.
Separator throughput 65% with relation to the
rated throughput. Separating temperature 40 to
50C. Solid particles (sand, rust, catalyst finesj
and water can thus largely be removed and the
intervals between cleaning of the filter elements
considerably extended.
lnvestigations
Fuel analyses are carried out in our chemical
laboratory for our customers at cost price. For
examination a sample of approx. 1 litre is re-
quired.

3.9 Quality of Heavy Fuel Oil (HFOj
Prerequisites
MAN Diesel four-stroke engines can be operat-
ed on any crude-oil based heavy fuel oil meeting
the requirements listed in Table 3-53, Page 3-35,
provided the engine and the fuel treatment plant
are designed accordingly. ln order to ensure a
well-balanced relation between the costs for fu-
el, spare parts and maintenance and repair
work, we recommend bearing in mind the fol-
lowing points.
Heavy fuel oil (HFOj
Provenance/refining process
The quality of the heavy fuel oil is largely deter-
mined by the crude oil grade (provenancej 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 catalyt-
ic cracking plants. These processes may have a
negative effect on the stability of the fuel and on
its ignition and combustion properties. ln the es-
sence, 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. lf fuels are supplied by independent
traders, it is to be made sure that these, too,
keep to the international specifications. The re-
sponsibility for the choice of appropriate fuels
rests with the engine operator.
Specifications
Mineral oil companies have internally estab-
lished specifications for heavy fuel oils, and ex-
perience shows that these specifications are
observed worldwide and are within the limits of
international specifications (e.g. lSO 8217,
ClMAC, British Standards MA-100j. As a rule,
the engine builders expect that fuels satisfying
these specifications are being used.
The fuel specifications given in Table 3-53, Page
3-35, are categorised by viscosity and grade,
and make allowance for the lowest-grade crude
oil offered worldwide and for the most unfavour-
able refining processes. The specifications have
been coordinated between the lnternational
Standard Organisation (lSOj, the British Stand-
ards lnstitute (BSlj, the association of engine
builders (ClMACj and the lnternational Chamber
of Shipping (lCSj.
Blends
The admixing of engine oils (used oilsj, of non-
mineral oil constituents (such as coal oilj and of
residual products from refining or other process-
es (such as solventsj is not permitted. The rea-
sons are, for example: the abrasive and
corrosive effects, the adverse combustion prop-
erties, a poor compatibility with mineral oils and,
last but not least, the negative environmental ef-
fects. The order letter for the fuel should ex-
pressly mention what is prohibited, as this
constraint has not yet been incorporated in the
commonly applied fuel specifications.
The admixing of engine oil (used oilj to the fuel
involves a substantial danger because the lube
oil additives have an emulsifying effect and keep
dirt, water and catfines finely suspended. There-
fore, 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

lMO Marine Environment Protection Committee
of 1 Jan. 92.
Leaked oil collectors
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.
Specifications
For the usability of fuels of certain specifica-
tions, is valid. ln Table 3-53, Page 3-35, the limit
values to be complied with in each case are stat-
ed.
The heavy fuel oils lSO F-RMK 35/45/55, with a
maximum density of 1010kg/m
3
, can only be
used if appropriate modern separators are avail-
able.
ln case of engine operation with fuel water emul-
sion (FWEj a max. viscosity for the basic fuel of
380 cSt is allowed.
ln the fuel ordering form, the limit values as per
Table 3-53, Page 3-35, 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 Ta-
ble 3-53, Page 3-35, because they provide im-
portant background information
lmportant
Fuel oil characteristics as stated in analysis re-
sults - even if they meet the above mentioned
requirements - may be not sufficient for estimat-
ing the combustion properties of the fuel oil. This
means that service results depend on oil proper-
ties which cannot be known beforehand. This
especially applies to the tendency of the oil to
form deposits in the combustion chamber, gas
passages and turbines. lt may, therefore, be
necessary to rule out some oils that cause diffi-
culties.

Supplementary remarks
The following remarks are thought to outline the
relations between heavy fuel oil grade, heavy
fuel oil treatment, engine operation and operat-
ing results.
Selection of heavy fuel oil
Economic operation on heavy fuel oil with the
limit values specified in Table 3-53, Page 3-35, is
possible under normal service conditions, with
properly working systems and regular mainte-
nance. Otherwise, if these requirements are not
met, shorter TBO's (times between overhaulj,
higher wear rates and a higher demand in spare
parts must be expected. Alternatively, the nec-
essary maintenance intervals and the operating
results expected determine the decision as to
which heavy fuel oil grade should be used.
lt is known that as viscosity increases, the price
advantage decreases more and more. lt is there-
fore not always economical to use the highest
viscosity heavy fuel oil, which in numerous cas-
es means the lower quality grades.
Heavy fuel oils lSO-RMB/C 10 or ClMAC B10
ensure reliable operation of older engines, which
were not designed for the heavy fuel oils that are
currently available on the market. lSO-RMA 10
or ClMAC A30 with a low pour point should be
preferred in cases where the bunker system
cannot be heated.
viscosity/injection viscosity
Heavy fuel oils if having a higher viscosity may
be of lower quality. The maximum permissible
viscosity depends on the existing preheating
equipment and the separator rating (through-
putj.
The specified injection viscosity and/or fuel oil
temperature upstream of the engine should be
adhered to. Only then will an appropriate atomi-
sation and proper mixing, and hence a low-resi-
due combustion be possible. Besides,
mechanical overloading of the injection system
will be prevented. The specified injection viscos-
ity and/or the necessary fuel oil temperature up-
stream of the engine can be seen from the
viscosity/temperature diagram.
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 tak-
en that inorganic, foreign particles with their
strong abrasive effect (catalyst residues, rust,
sandj are effectively separated. lt has shown in
practice that with the aluminium content
>10mg/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 con-
sideration when designing and setting the clean-
ing equipment.
Settling tank
The heavy fuel oil is precleaned 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
oilj. One settling tank will generally be suffi-
cient for heavy fuel oil viscosity below
380mm
2
/s at 50C. lf the concentration of
foreign matter in the heavy fuel oil is exces-
sive, or if a grade according to lSO-F-RM, G/
H/K35, H/K45 or H/K55 is preferred, two set-
tling 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 must be of the self-cleaning

type (i.e. with automatically induced cleaning
intervalsj.
Separators of the new generation are to be
used exclusively; they are fully efficient over a
large density range without requiring any
switchover, and are capable of separating
water up to a heavy fuel oil density
of 1.01g/ml at 15C.
Table 3-54, Page 3-37, shows the demands
made on the seoarator. These limit values
which the manufacturers of these separators
take as a basis and which they also guaran-
tee.
The manufacturer' specifications have to be
adhered to in order to achieve an optimum
cleaning effect.
Layout of the separators is to be in accord-
ance with the latest recommendations of the
separator manufacturers, Alfa Laval and
Westfalia. ln particular, the density and vis-
cosity of the heavy fuel oil are to be taken into
consideration. Consulting MAN Diesel is re-
quired if other makes of separators come up
for discussion.
lf the cleaning treatment prescribed by MAN
Diesel is applied, and if the coorect separa-
tors are selected, it can be expected that the
results given in Table 3-54, Page 3-37, for wa-
ter and inorganic foreign particles in the
heavy fuel oil are reached at the entry into the
engine.
The results obtained in practical operation re-
veal that adherence to the above values helps
to particularly keep abrasive wear in the in-
jection system and in the engine within ac-
ceptable limits. Besides, optimal lube oil
treatment must be ensured.

Water
Attention is to be paid to very thorough water
separation, since the water is not a finely dis-
tributed 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. lf the
water involved is sea water, harmful sodium
chloride and other salts dissolved in the wa-
ter will enter the engine.
The water-containing sludge must be re-
moved 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.
vanadium/sodium
Should the vanadium/sodium ratio be unfa-
vourable, the melting temperature of the
heavy fuel oil ash may drop into the range of
the exhaust valve temperature which will re-
sult in high-temperature corrosion. By pre-
cleaning the heavy fuel oil in the settling tank
and in the centrifugal separators, the water,
and with it the water-soluble sodium com-
pounds can be largely removed.
lf the sodium content is lower than 30% of
the vadium content, the risk of high-tempera-
ture corrosion will be small. lt must also be
prevented that sodium in the form of sea wa-
ter enters the engine together with the intake
air.
lf the sodium content is higher than 100mg/
kg, an increase of salt deposits is to be ex-
pected 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 turbochargerj.
The content of sodium of engines with PTG
has to be limited to 50mg/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 "Additives to
heavy fuel oils", Page 3-41j.
Ash
Heavy fuel oils with a high ash content in the
form of foreign particles such as sand, corro-
sion and catalyst residues, promote the me-
chanical wear in the engine. There may be
catalyst fines (catfinesj in heavy fuel oils com-
ing from catalytic cracking processes. ln
most cases, these catfines will be aluminium
silicate, which causes high wear in the injec-
tion system and in the engine. The aluminium
content found multiplied by 5-8 (depending
on the catalyst compositionj will approxi-
mately correspond to the content of catalyst
materials in the heavy fuel oil.
Homogeniser
lf a homogeniser is used, it must not be in-
stalled between the settling tank and the sep-
arator on any account, since in that case,
harmful contaminants, and in particular sea-
water, cannot be separated out sufficiently.
Flash point (ASTMD-93j
National and international regulations for trans-
port, storage and application of fuels must be
adhered to in respect of the flash point. Gener-
ally, a flash point of above 60C is specified for
fuels used in Diesel engines.
Low temperature behaviour (ASTM D-97j
Pourpoint
The pour point is the temperature at which
the fuel is no longer fluid (pumplikej. Since
many of the low-viscosity heavy fuel oils have
a pour point greater than 0C, too, the bun-
kering system has to be preheated unless
fuel in accordance with ClMAC A30 is used.
The entire bunkering system should be de-
signed so as to permit preheating of the
heavy fuel oil to approx. 10C above the pour
point.

/s (cStj or a temperature less than ap-
prox. 10C above the pour point. Please also re-
fer to "Low temperature behaviour (ASTM D-
97j", Page 3-38.
Combustion properties
An asphalt content higher than 2/3 of the carbon
residue (Conradsonj may lead to delayed com-
bustion, which involves increased residue for-
mation, 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 com-
bustion close to the cylinder wall (thermal over-
loading of the lube oil filmj. lf the ratio of
asphaltenes to carbon residues reaches the limit
value 0.66, and the asphaltene content also ex-
ceeds 8%, additional analyses of the heavy fuel
oil concerned by means of thermogravimetric
analysis (TGAj must be performed by MAN Die-
sel to evaluate the usability. This tendency will
also be promoted by the blend constituents of
the heavy fuel oil being incompatible, or by dif-
ferent and incompatible bunkering being mixed
together. As a result, there is an increased sepa-
ration of asphalt (also see "Compatibility", Page
3-41j.
lgnition quality
Cracked products which nowadays are pre-
ferred as low-viscosity blend constituents of the
heavy fuel oil in order to achieve the specified
reference viscosity may have poor ignition qual-
ities. The cetane number of these constituents
should be >35. An increased aromatics content
(above 35%j also leads to a decrease in ignition
quality.
Fuel oils of insufficient ignition qualities will
show extended ignition lag and delayed com-
bustion, which may lead to thermal overloading
of the oil film on the cylinder liner and excessive
pressures in the cylinder. lgnition lag and the re-
sultant pressure rise in the cylinder are also influ-
enced 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 and output reduction for a limited period
of time are possible measures to reduce detri-
mental influences of fuel of poor ignition quali-
ties. 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 Diesel
trunk piston engines.
The ignition quality is a key property of the fuel.
The reason why it does not appear in the inter-
national specifications is the absence of a
standardised testing method. Therefore, param-
eters such as the Calculated Carbon Aromaticity
lndex (CCAlj 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.
A test instrument utilising a constant-volume
combustion technology /FlA fuel ignition analys-
erj has been developed and is currently being
evaluated at a number of testing laboratories.
The ignition quality of a fuel is determined as an
ignition delay in the instrument that is converted
to an instrument-related cetan number (FlA-CNj.
lt has been observed that fuels with a low FlA
cetan number could, in some cases, lead to op-
erational problems.
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 combus-
tion quality, it is the responsibility of the bunker-
ing company to supply a heavy fuel oil grade of
quality matched to the Diesel engine. Please re-
fer to Figure 3-2, Page 3-40.

Sulphuric acid corrosion
The engine should be operated at the cooling
water temperatures specified in the operating
manual for the respective load. lf the tempera-
ture of the component surface exposed to the
acidic combustion gases is below the acid dew
point, acid corrosion can no longer be sufficient-
ly prevented even by an alcaline lubricating oil.
lf the lube oil quality and engine cooling meet
the respective requirements, the BN values (see
Chapter 3.3 "Quality of lube oil for heavy fuel oil
operation (HFOj", Page 3-9j will be adequate,
depending on the sulphur concentration in the
heavy fuel oil.
Compatibility
The supplier has to guarantee that the heavy fuel
oil remains homogenous and stable even after
the usual period of storage. lf different bunker
oils are mixed, separation may occur which re-
sults in sludge formation in the fuel system, large
quantities of sludge in the separator, clogging of
filters, insufficient atomisation and high-residue
combustion.
ln such cases, one refers to incompatibility or in-
stability. The heavy fuel oil storage tanks should
therefore be emptied as far as possible prior to
re bunkering in order to preclude incompatibility.
Blending heavy fuel oil
lf, for instance, heavy fuel for the main engine
and gas oil (MGOj are blended to achieve the
heavy fuel oil quality or viscosity specified for
the auxiliary engines, it is essential that the con-
stituents are compatible (refer to "Compatibili-
ty", Page 3-41j.
Additives to heavy fuel oils
MAN Diesel engines can be economically oper-
ated without additives. lt 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.
The use of fuel additives during the guarantee
period is rejected as a matter of principle.
Additives currently in use for Diesel engines are
listed in Table 3-55, Page 3-41, together with
their effect on engine operation.

Examinations
Sampling
To be able to check as to whether the specifica-
tion indicated and/or the stipulated delivery con-
ditions 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. ln order to en-
sure 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 ap-
propriate testing kit for taking samples continu-
ously during the bunkering.
Analyse samples
The samples received from the bunkering com-
pany are frequently not identical with the heavy
fuel oil bunkered. lt is also appropriate to verify
the heavy fuel oil properties stated in the bunker
documents, such as density, viscosity, pour
point. lf these values should deviate from those
of the heavy fuel oil bunkered, one runs the risk
that the heavy fuel oil separator and the preheat-
ing temperature are not set correctly for the giv-
en 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 Diesel Fuel and Lube
Analysis Set.

3.10 Quality of intake air (combustion airj
General
The quality and the condition of the intake air
(combustion airj exert great influence on the en-
gine output. ln this connection, not only the at-
mospherical condition is of great importance but
also the pollution by solid and gaseous matter.
Mineral dust particles in the intake air will result
in increased wear. Chemical/gaseous constitu-
ents, however, will stimulate corrosion.
For this reason, effective cleaning of the intake
air (combustion airj and regular maintenance/
cleaning of the air filter are required.
When designing the intake air system, it has to
be kept in mind that the total pressure drop (fil-
ter, silencer, pipingj must not exceed 20mbar.
Requirements
The concentrations after the air filter and/or be-
fore the turbocharger inlet must not exceed the
limiting values given in Table 3-56, Page 3-43.

Explanations of the viscosity-temperature
(vTj diagram
The diagram shows the fuel temperatures on the
horizontal and the viscosity on the vertical
scales.
The diagonal lines correspond to the viscosity-
temperature curve of fuels with different refer-
ence viscosity. The vertical viscosity scales in
mm
2
/s = cSt apply to 40C, 50C or 100C.
Determination of the viscosity-temperature
curve and the preheating temperature re-
quired
Example: Heavy fuel oil of 180mm
2
/s at 50C.
Table 3-57 Determination of the viscosity-temperature
curve and the preheating temperature
1j
The temperature drop from the final preheater to the
fuel injection pump is not covered by these figures.
A heavy fuel oil of 180mm
2
/s at 50C reaches a
viscosity of 1000mm
2
/s at 24C (line ej, which is
the max. permissible viscosity with respect to
the pump ability of the fuel.
Using a state-of-the-art final preheater a heavy
fuel oil outlet temperature of 152C will be ob-
tained for 8bar saturated steam. Higher temper-
atures involve the risk of increased formation of
residues in the preheater, resulting in a reduction
of the heating power and a thermal overload of
the heavy fuel oil. This causes formation of as-
phaltenes, i.e. a deterioration of quality.
The fuel pipes from the final preheater outlet up
to the injection valve must be insulated ade-
quately to ensure that a temperature drop will be
limited to max. 4C. Only then can the required
injection viscosity of max. 14mm
2
/s be achieved
with a heavy fuel oil of a reference viscosity of
700mm
2
/s = cSt/50C (representing the maxi-
mum viscosity as referred to in international
specifications such as lSO, ClMAC or British
Standardj. lf a heavy fuel oil of a lower reference
viscosity is used, an injection viscosity of 12
mm
2
/s should be aimed at, ensuring improved
heavy fuel oil atomisation and thus fewer resi-
dues from combustion.
The transfer pump is to be designed for a heavy-
fuel-oil viscosity of up to 1000mm
2
/s. The pump
ability of the heavy fuel oil also depends on the
pour point. The design of the bunkering system
must permit heating up of the fuel oil to approx.
10C above its pour point.
Caution!
Gas oil or Diesel oil (Marine Diesel Oilj must
have neither a lower viscosity before engine
than 1.5 cSt nor a higher viscosity than that
specified when entering the injection pump.
With a too low viscosity, insufficient lubricity
may cause the seizure of the pump plungers
or the nozzle needles. This can be avoided if
the fuel temperature is kept to:
-max. 50C for gas oil operation and
-max. 60C for MDO operation.
Therefore a fuel oil cooler has to be installed.

3.12 Quality of water used in exhaust gas boiler plants
Conditions
Like fuel, lube oil and engine cooling water, wa-
ter for exhaust gas boiler plants is a consuma-
ble, which has carefully to be chosen, treated
and supervised. ln the case of improper water
maintenance, corrosion and deposits may form
up in the water. Deposits will on their part again
result in corrosion and have an adverse effect on
heat transfer.
Any additional requirements for water quality
specified in the boiler manufacturer's manual
have to be taken into consideration.
Applications
Two different systems are used:
Exhaust gas boiler plants generate steam,
which is used as heat transfer agent in other
systems.
With regard to steam turbines, steam gener-
ated by means of the exhaust gas tempera-
ture is used for energy production.
Separate demands made on feed and circulat-
ing water are valid for both application cases.
Exhaust gas boiler without steam turbine
The quality requirements for feed and circulating
water comply with TRD 611 (Technische Regeln
fr Dampfkessel = technical rules for steam boil-
ersj. Low-salt and salt-laden feed water can be
used if the specifications in Table 3-58, Page
3-47, are kept. The utilisation of the salt-free
feed water is possible, but not necessary. When
using saltless feed water, corresponding limit
values are valid for circulating water.

Treatment
The feed water has to be treated with suitable
chemicals. lf an exhaust gas boiler without tur-
bine is used, the conditioning agent must con-
tain the following products:
Residue softener
Oxygen binder
Alkalising medium
Steam-volatile alkalising medium for corro-
sion protection in the condensate system (not

posits already exist in the boiler systemj.
MAN Diesel recommends using combination
products. This simplifies the treatment and en-
sures that all vital points concerning water treat-
ment are taken into consideration.
During the warranty period and in the case of ex-
isting maintenance contracts, only the products
mentioned in Table 3-62, Page 3-48, are to be
used,
lt is expressly pointed out that warranty for the
products used has to be taken over by the prod-
uct manufacturer.
The recommendations of the turbine manufac-
turer are to be taken into consideration for the
treatment of water used in steam turbines. Gen-
eral recommendations can, in this case, not be
given.

Cleaning of the exhaust gas boiler
Cleaning at the exhaust gas side is carried out
with steam or water, by means of the corre-
sponding devices. ln the case of water cleaning,
special requirements are not to be observed,
with the exception that sea or brackish water
must not be used.
Correct maintenance provided, water cleaning is
not necessary. Should cleaning prove to be nec-
essary, a suitable company has to be engaged,
which is able to carry out professional cleaning.

5.1 Propulsion packages
5.1.1 General
MAN standard propulsion packages
The MAN Diesel standard propulsion packages
are optimised at 90% MCR, 100% rpm and
96,5% of the ship speed. The propeller is calcu-
lated with the class notation "No lce" and high
skew propeller blade design. These propulsion
packages are examples of different combina-
tions of engines, gearboxes, propellers and
shaft lines according to the design parameters
above.
Due to different and individual aft ship body de-
signs and operational profiles your inquiry and
order will be carefully reviewed and all given pa-
rameters will be considered in an individual cal-
culation. The result of this calculation can differ
from the standard propulsion packages by the
assumption of e.g. a higher lce Class or different
design parameters.

5.1.4 Propeller clearance
To reduce the emitted pressure impulses and vi-
brations from the propeller to the hull, MAN Die-
sel recommend a minimum tip clearance as
shown in Table 5-1.
For ships with slender aft body and favourable
inflow conditions the lower values can be used
whereas full after body and large variations in
wake field causes the upper values to be used.
ln twin-screw ships the blade tip may protrude
below the base line.

6.1 Basic principles for pipe selection
6.1.1 Pipe dimensioning
The external piping systems are to be installed
and connected to the engine by the shipyard.
Piping systems are to be designed in order to
maintain the pressure losses at a reasonable
level. To achieve this with justifiable costs, it is
recommended to maintain the flow rates as indi-
cated below. Nevertheless, depending on spe-
cific conditions of piping systems, it may be
necessary in some cases to adopt even lower
flow rates. Generally it is not recommended to
adopt higher flow rates.

6.2 Lube oil system
6.2.1 Lube oil system description
The diagrams represent the standard design of
external lube oil service systems, with engine
mounted and detached, freestanding, lube oil
pump(sj.
The internal lubrication of the engine and the tur-
bocharger is provided with a forcedfeed lubrica-
tion system.
The lubrication of the cylinder liners is designed
as a separate system attached to the engine but
served by the inner lubrication system.
For each engine a separate lube-oil system is re-
quired.
For dual-fuel engines (gas-Diesel enginesj a
supplement will explain additional specific re-
quirements.
Lube oil viscosity/quality
The lube oil specified for the Diesel engine oper-
ation has to be carefully selected.
The selection is mainly affected by the used fuel
grade.
Table 6-1 Lube oil viscosity/quality
For details see Quality of lube oil for operation
on gas oil and Diesel oil (MGO/MDOj, Quality of
lube oil for heavy fuel oil operation (HFOj and
when exist Quality requirements for lube oil (Ot-
to-gas and dual-fuel operationj in Chapter 3.
T-001/ Service tank
For the design of the service tank the class re-
quirements have to be taken in consideration.
For design requirements of MAN Diesel see
Chapter "Lube oil service tank".
Lube oil heating
The lube oil in the service tank and the system
shall be heated up to 40C prior to the engine
start. A constant circulation of the lube oil with
the stand-by pump is not recommended. For
priming the engine, it is sufficient to start the
stand-by pump 15 min prior to engine start.
Suction pipes
Suction pipes must be installed with a steady
slope and dimensioned for the total resistance
(incl. pressure drop for suction filterj not exceed-
ing the pump suction head. A non-return flap
must be installed close to the lube oil tank in or-
der to prevent the lube oil backflow when the en-
gine has been shut off. For engine mounted
pumps this non-return flap must be by-passed
by a relief valve (PSv-004, DN50j to protect the
pump seals against high pressure because of
counter rotation (during shut downj.

FlL- 004 / Suction filter
The suction filters protect the lube oil pumps
against larger dirt particals that may have accu-
mulated in the tank. lt is recommended to use fil-
ters with a mesh size of 540 m with magnetic
inserts. A differential pressure gauge connected
to the filter indicates when manual cleaning of
filter becomes necessary, which should prefera-
bly be done in port.
P-001/P-074 / Lube oil pumps
For ships with a single main engine drive it is
preferable to design the lube oil system with a
combination of an engine driven lube oil pump
(P-001j and an electrically driven stand-by
pump (P-074j (100% capacityj.
For ships with more than one main engine the
electrically driven pump can be dimensioned
smaller, to be used as a priming pump only.
As long as the installed stand-by pump is pro-
viding 100% capacity of the operating pump,
the class requirement to have an operating
pump in spare on board, is fulfilled.
The main advantages for an engine-driven lube
oil pump are
reduced power demand for genset / PTO for
normal operation
continous lube oil supply during black-out
and emergency stop for engine run-out.
ln general additional installations acc. to Table
6-2 Lube oil pumps, possible combinations. are
to be considered for different pump arrange-
ments
to comply with the rules of classification so-
cieties
to ensure continous lube oil supply during
black out and emergency stop for engine run-
out.

ta"
ln case of black out with engine stop the post lu-
brication must be started within 50 min after the
engine has stopped and must persist for mini-
mum 10 min. This is required to cool down the
bearings of T.C. and hot inner engine compo-
nents.
HE-002 / Lube oil cooler
Dimensioning
Heat data, flow rates and tolerances are indicat-
ed in Chapter "Engine characteristic data" Sec-
tion "Planning data".
Additional contamination margin in terms of a
10% heat transfer coefficient redundancy is to
be considered.
On the lube oil side the pressure drop shall not
exceed 1.1bar.
Design / Outfitting
The cooler installation must be designed for
easy venting and draining.
TCv-001 / Temperature control valve
The valve is to regulate the inlet oil temperature
of the engine. The control valve can be executed
with wax-type thermostats.
Table 6-3 Temperature control valve
Lube oil cleaning
The cleaning of the circulating lube oil can be di-
vided in two major function
Remove of contaminations to keep the lube
oil performance
Retention of dirt to safe the engine
The removal of combustion residues, water and
other mechanical contaminations is the major
task of separators / centrifuges (CF-001j in-
stalled in bypass to the main lube oil service sys-
tem of the engine. The installation of a separator
per engine is recommended to ensure a contin-
uous separation during engine operation.
The system integrated filters protect the Diesel
engine in the main circuit retaining all residues
that will harm the engine. Depending on the filter
design, the collected residues are to be removed
from the filter mesh by automatic backflushing,
manual cleaning or changing the filter cartridge.
The retention capacity of the installed filter
should be as high as possible. For selection of
an applicable filter arrangement, the customer
request for operation and maintenance, as well
as the class requirements, have to be taken in
consideration.

Arrangement principles for L.O. filters FlL-001 /
FlL-002
Depending on the number of installed main en-
gines in one plant and of engine type, different
arrangement principles for the filters FlL-001 /
FlL-002 are possible:
Table 6-4 Arrangement principles for L.O. filters
FlL-001 / Automatic filter
The automatic backwashing filter is to be in-
stalled as a main filter. The backwashing / flush-
ing of the filter elements has to be arranged in a
way that lube oil flow and pressure will not be af-
fected. The flushing discharge (oil/sludge mix-
turej is led to the separator suction pipe in a
divided compartment of the service tank, which
provides an efficient final removal of deposits by
the separator (see Chapter 6.2.4 Lube oil service
tankj.

As far as the automatic filter is installed without
any additional filters downstream, before the en-
gine inlet, the filter has to be installed as close as
possible to the engine (see Table 6-4 Arrange-
ment principles for L.O. filtersj. ln that case the
pipe sec-tion between filter and engine inlet
must be closely inspected before installation.
This pipe section must be devided and flanges
have to be fitted that all bends and welding
seams can be inspected and cleaned prior to fi-
nal installation.
Differential pressure gauges have to be installed,
to protect the filter cartridges and to indicate
clocking condition of the filter. A high differential
pressure has to be indicated as an alarm.
Filter mesh sizes and surface loads see Table 6-
5 Automatic filter.
v-001 / Lead-sealed shut-off cock
This shut-off cock is only to be provided for sin-
gle-engine propulsion plants. The cock is closed
during normal operation. ln case the lube oil au-
tomatic filter FlL-001 has to be taken out of op-
eration, the cock can be opened and the
automatic filter shut off. Consequently, the auto-
matic filter is by-passed. The lube oil indicator
filter FlL-002 adopts temporarily the task of the
automatic filter. This measure ensures that dis-
turbances in backwashing do not result in a
complete failure of filtering and that the main
stream filter can be cleaned without interrupting
filtering.
FlL-002 / lndicator filter
The indicator filter is a duplex filter, which must
be cleaned manually. lt must be installed down-
stream of the automatic filter, as close as possi-
ble to the engine. The pipe section between filter
and engine inlet must be closely inspected be-
fore installation. This pipe section must be divid-
ed and flanges have to be fitted that all bends
and welding seams can be inspected and
cleaned prior to final installation.

The indicator filter protects the engine also in
case of malfunctions of the automatic filter. The
monitoring system of the automatic filter gener-
ates an alarm signal to alert the operating per-
sonnel. A maintenance of the automatic filter
becomes necessary. For this propose the lube
oil flow thought the automatic filter has to be
stopped. Single-main-engine-plants can contin-
ue to stay in operation by bypassing the auto-
matic filter. Lube oil can still be filtrated
sufficiently in this situation by only using the in-
dicator filter.
ln multi-engine-plants, were it is not possible to
bypass the automatic filter without loss of lube
oil filtration, the affected engine has to be
stopped in this situation.
The design of the indicator filter must ensure
that no parts of the filter can be loosed and enter
the engine.
The drain connections provided with shut-off
fittings in the two chambers of the indicator filter
return in the leak oil tank (T-006j. Draining will re-
move the dirt accumulated in the casing and
prevents contamination of the clean oil side of
filter.
Filter mesh sizes and surface loads see Table 6-
6 lndicator filter.
lndication and alarm of filters
The automatic filter FlL-001 and the indicator /
duplex filter FlL-002 are equipped with local,
visual, differential pressure indicators and differ-
antial pressure switches. The switches are used
for the control of the filter (only intermittent flush-
ing automatic filterj and to generate alarms. The
alarms of the automatic filter and indicator / du-
plex filter are processed in the engine control
and safety system and are available for the ship
alarm system.

(e.g. B&K 6.61j
This dp switch has to be installed twice
if an intermittent flushing filter is used.
The first switch is used for the filter
control; it will start the automatic flush-
ing procedure.
The second switch is adjusted at the
identical set point as the first. Once the
second switch is activated, and after a
time delay of approx. 3 min, the dp pre-
alarm "filter is polluted" is generated.
The time delay becomes necessary to
effect the automatic flushing procedure

The dp main alarm "filter failure" is gen-
erated immediately. lf the main alarm is
still active after 30min, the engine out-
put power will be reduced automati-
cally.

Suction filters FlL-004 are equipped with a local,
visual, differential pressure indicator.
CF-001 / Separator
The lube oil is intensively cleaned by separation
in the by-pass thus relieving the filters and al-
lowing an economical design.
The separator (clarifierj should be of the self-
cleaning type. The design is to be based on a
lube oil quantity of 1.0 l/kW. This lube oil quantity
should be cleaned within 24 hours at:
HFO-operation 6 - 7 times,
MDO-operation 4 - 5 times,
DF-engines operating on gas (+MDO/MGO
for ignition onlyj 4 - 5 times,
The formula for determining the separator flow
rate Q is:
Q Separator flow rate.....................................l/h
P Total engine output................................... kW
n HFO=7, MDO=5, MGO=5, Gas(+MDO/MGO
for ignition onlyj =5 ........................................... -
With the evaluated flow rate the size of separator
has to be selected acc. to the evaluation table of
the manufacturer. MAN Diesel strictly recom-
mend to use evaluation tables according to a
"Certified flow rate" (CFRj. The separator rating
stated by the manufacturer should be higher
than the flow rate Q calculated according to the
above formula.
Separator equipment
The preheater H-002 must be able to heat the oil
to 95C and the size is to be selected accord-
ingly. ln addition to a Pl-temperature control,
which avoids a thermal overloading of the oil,
silting of the preheater must be prevented by
high turbulence of the oil in the preheater.
Control accuracy 1C.
Cruise ships in arctic waters require larger pre-
heaters. ln this case the size of the preheater
must be calculated with a t of 60K.
The freshwater supplied must be treated as
specified by the separator supplier.
The supply pumps shall be of the free-standing
type, i.e. not mounted on the separator and are
to be installed in the immediate vicinity of the
lube oil service tank.
This arrangement has three advantages:
suction of lube oil without causing cavitation
the lube oil separator need not be installed in
the vicinity of the service tank but can be
mounted in the separator room together with
the fuel oil separators
better matching of the capacity to the re-
quired separator throughput.
As a reserve for the lube oil separator, the use of
the MDO separator is admissible. For reserve
operation the MDO separator must be convert-
ed accordingly. This includes the pipe connec-
tion to the lube oil system which must not be
implemented with valves or spectacle flanges.
The connection is to be executed by removable
change-over joints that will definitely prevent
MDO from getting into the lube oil circuit.
See also rules and regulations of classification
societies.
PCv-007 / Pressure control valve
By use of the pressure control valve, a constant
lube oil pressure before the engine is adjusted.
The pressure control valve is installed upstream
of the lube oil cooler. The installation position is
to be observed. By spilling off exceeding lube oil
quantities upstream of the major components
these components can be sized smaller. The re-
turn pipe (spilling pipej from the pressure control
valve returns into the lube oil service tank.

The measurement point of the pressure control
pipe is connected directly to the engine in order
to measure the lube oil pressure at the engine. ln
this way the pressure losses of filters, pipes and
cooler are compensated automatically (see also
chapter "Pressure control valve"j
T-050 / Lube oil run-down tank for engine
lf the lube oil system is designed for two electri-
cally driven lube oil pumps (see Table 6-2 Lube
oil pumps, possible combinations.j, a lube oil
run-down tank for the engine must be installed
(delivery and installation by the shipyardj in the
engine room. The tank is filled when the lube oil
system is put into operation and the tank con-
tent will then be available for emergency lubrica-
tion.
Only with filled tank the engine can be started.
To accelerate the filling time, the valve LOv-001
remains open till the lube oil level in the run-
down tank is sufficient to start the engine. Then
valve LOv-001 is closed and the engine can be
started. During normal engine operation a small
heating lube oil flow, through an orifice installed
parallel to valve LOv-001, ensures that the lube
oil content of the run-down tank will preserve a
sufficient temperature. lt is recommended to ad-
just the heating lube oil flow in order to ex-
change the complete oil content of the run-
down tank in 2-3 hours. An overflow will dis-
charge the heating lube oil flow into the service
lube oil tank T-001. ln case the lube oil pump is
stopped, e.g. by black-out, the non return valve
NRv-002 will open automatically and the tank
content is used to lubricate the engine during
run-out for a few minutes with low oil pressure.
Also by a normal stop of the lube oil pump the
run-down tank is discharged automatically.
For tank capacity and installation height of the
lube oil run-down tank, see Chapter "Engine
characteristic data" Section "Planning data-Fill-
ing volumes and flow resistance".
The capacity of the service tank (T-001j must be
increased by the capacity of the run-down tank
(T-050j as its content returns into the service
tank when the lube oil pump is stopped.
The diameter of the connecting pipe from the
main lube oil pipe to the run-down tank and the
installed valves are to be designed with min.
0,75 x diameter of the main lube oil pipe. ln case
of cold ambient conditions it could be necessary
to insulate the run-down tank and the connect-
ing pipe.
T-073 / Lube oil run-down tank for turbocharger
lf the lube oil system is designed for two electri-
cally driven lube oil pumps (see Table 6-2 Lube
oil pumps, possible combinations.j, a lube oil
run-down tank for the turbocharger must be in-
stalled (attached on the turbocharger, delivery
by MAN Dieselj. ln case of an unexpected stop
of the oil pump (black-outj, the oil content of the
tank is used to lubricate the bearings of the tur-
bocharger during run-out.

TR-001 / Condensate trap
The condensate traps required for the vent pipes
of the turbocharger, the engine crankcase and
the service tank must be installed as close as
possible to the vent connections. This will pre-
vent condensate water, which has formed on the
cold venting pipes, to enter the engine or service
tank.
See also Chapter 6.2.6 Crankcase vent and tank
vent.
T-006 / Leakage oil tank
Leaked fuel and the dirty oil drained from the
lube oil filter casings is collected in this tank. lt is
to be emptied into the sludge tank. The content
must not be added to the fuel. lt is not permitted
to add lube oil to the fuel.
Alternatively, separate leakage oil tanks for fuel
and lube oil can be installed.
P-012 Transfer pump
The transfer pump supplies fresh oil from the
lube oil storage tank to the operating tank. Start-
ing and stopping of the pump should preferably
be done automatically by float switches fitted in
the tank.
P-075 / Cylinder lube oil pump
The pump fitted to the engine is driven by an
electric motor (asynchronous motor 380-420v /
50Hz or 380-460v / 60Hz three-phase AC with
pole changingj.
For the cylinder lubrication MAN Diesel will sup-
ply a control unit inclusive a pump contactor,
with a power consumption of about 0.5 kW for
pump, control and heating.
This value must be doubled for v-engines, as
two control units (one for each rowj are supplied
in one cabinet.
Withdrawal points for samples
Points for drawing lube oil samples are to be
provided upstream and downstream of the fil-
ters and the separator, to verify the effectiveness
of these system components.
Piping system
lt is recommended to use pipes according to the
pressure class PN 10.

6.2.2 Prelubrication / postlubrication

Prelubrication is on principle required before en-
gine start.
For main engines the stand-by pump is to be
put into operation 5 minutes before engine start.
A prelubrication pump is required for:
Emergency power generating sets
Generator plants in cases where the lube oil
pump is mounted on the engine
Prelubrication in cases where the lube oil pump
is mounted on the engine
The prelubrication pump is switched on before
the engine is started, and serves to assist the
mounted lube oil pump until the engine attains
its rated speed.
Pressure before engine . . . . . . . . .0.6 - 0.8bar
Oil temperature . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . min.40C
Postlubrication
The prelubrication oil pumps are also to be used
for postlubrication when the engine is stopped.
Postlubrication is effected for a period of 15 min.

6.2.3 Lube oil outlets - general
Lube oil drain
Two connections for oil drain pipes are located
on both ends of the engine oil sump, except for
L 48/60 and L 40/54 - with flexible engine
mounting - with one drain arranged in the middle
of each side.
lf the engine is installed in the horizontal posi-
tion, two oil drain pipes are required, one at the
coupling end and one at the free end.
lf the engine is installed in an inclined position,
three oil drain pipes are required, two at the low-
er end and one at the higher end of the engine
oil sump.
The drain pipes must be kept short. The slanted
pipe ends must be immersed in the oil, so as to
create a liquid seal between crank case and
tank.
Expansion joints
At the connection of the oil drain pipes to the
service tank, expansion joints are required.
Shut-off butterfly valves
lf for lack of space, no cofferdam can be provid-
ed underneath the service tank, it is necessary
to install shut-off butterfly valves in the drain
pipes. lf the ship should touch ground, these
butterfly valves can be shut via linkages to pre-
vent the ingress of seawater through the engine.
Drain pipes, shut-off butterfly valves with linkag-
es, expansion joints, etc. are not supplied by the
engine builder.

6.2.4 Lube oil service tank
The lube oil service tank is to be arranged over
the entire area below the engine, in order to en-
sure uniform vertical thermal expansion of the
whole engine foundation.
To provide for adequate degasing, a minimum
distance is required between tank top and the
highest operating level. The low oil level should
still permit the lube oil to be drawn in free of air
if the ship is pitching severly
5 longitudinal inclination for ship's lengths
100 m
7.5 longitudinal inclination for ship's lengths
< 100 m
A well for the suction pipes of the lube oil pumps
is the preferred solution.
The minimum quantity of lube oil for the engine
is 1.0 litre/kW. This is a theoretical factor for per-
manent lube-oil-quality control and the decisive
factor for the design of the by-pass cleaning.The
lube oil quantity, which is actually required dur-
ing operation, depends on the tank geometry
and the volume of the system (piping, system
componentsj, and may exceed the theoretical
minimum quantity to be topped up.
The low-level alarm in the service tank is to be
adjusted to a height, which ensures that the
pumps can draw in oil, free of air, at the longitu-
dinal inclinations given above. The position of
the oil drain pipes extending from the engine oil
sump and the oil flow in the tank are to be se-
lected so as to ensure that the oil will remain in
the service tank for the longest possible time for
degasing.
Draining oil must not be sucked in at once.
The man holes in the floor plates inside the serv-
ice tank are to be arranged so as to ensure suf-
ficient flow to the suction pipe of the pump also
at low lube oil service level.
The tank has to be vented at the ends.
Lube oil preheating
Preheating the lube oil to 40 C is effected by the
preheater of the separator via the free-standing
pump. The preheater must be enlarged in size if
necessary, so that it can heat the content of the
service tank to 40 C, within 4 hours.

6.3 Water systems
6.3.1 Cooling water system
The diagrams showing cooling water systems
for main engines comprising the possibility of
heat utilisation in a freshwater generator and
equipment for preheating of the charge air in a
two-stage charge air cooler during part-load op-
eration.
Note!
The arrangement of the cooling water system
shown here is only one of many possible solu-
tions. lt is recommended to inform MAN Diesel
in advance in case other arrangements should
be desired.
For special applications, e.g. 32/40 gensets or
dual-fuel engines, supplements will explain spe-
cific necessities and deviations.
The design data of the system components
shown in the diagram are indicated in Chapter
"Engine characteristic data" Section "Planning
data".
The cooling water is to be conditioned using a
corrosion inhibitor according to "Chapter 3.4
"Quality of engine cooling water", Page 3-13.
LT = Low Temperature
HT = High Temperature
Cooler dimensioning, general
For coolers operated by seawater (not treated
waterj, lube oil or MDO/MGO on the primary
side and treated freshwater on the secondary
side, an additional safety margin of 10% related
to the heat transfer coefficient is to be consid-
ered. lf treated water is applied on both sides,
MAN Diesel does not insist on this margin.
ln case antifreeze is added to the cooling water,
the corresponding lower heat transfer is to be
taken into consideration.
The cooler arrangement has to ensure venting
and draining facilities for the cooler.
6.3.1.1 LT- cooling water system
ln general the LT cooling water passes through
the following components:
Stage 2 of the two-stage charge-air cooler
(HE-008j
Lube oil cooler (HE-002j
Nozzle cooling water cooler (HE-005j
Fuel oil cooler (HE-007j
Governor oil cooler (HE-022j
Gear lube oil cooler (HE-023j (or e.g. genera-
tor cooling in case of a Diesel-electric plantj
LT cooling water cooler (HE-024j
Other components such as, e.g., auxiliary en-
gines (gensetsj
The system components of the LT cooling water
circuit are designed for a max. LT cooling water
temperature of 38 C with a corresponding sea-
water temperature of 32 C (tropical conditionsj.
However, the capacity of the LT cooler (HE-024j
is determined by the temperature difference be-
tween seawater and LT cooling water. Due to
this correlation an LT freshwater temperature of
32 C can be ensured at a seawater temperature
of 25 C.
To meet the lMO regulations the set point of the
temperature regulator valve (MOv-016j is to be
adjusted to 32 C. However this temperature will
fluctuate and reach at least 38 C under tropical
conditions.
The charge air cooler stage 2 (HE-008j and the
lube oil cooler (HE-002j are installed in series to
obtain a low delivery rate of the LT cooling water
pump (P-076j.
P-076 / LT cooling water pump
The delivery rates of the service and standby
pump are mainly determined by the cooling wa-

ter required for the charge-air cooler stage 2 and
the other coolers.
For operating auxiliary engines (gensetsj in port,
the installation of an additional smaller pump is
recommendable.
MOv-003 / Temperature control valve for charge
air cooler
This three-way valve is to be installed as a mix-
ing valve.
lt serves two purposes:
1. ln engine part-load operation the charge air
cooler stage 2 (HE-008j is partially or com-
pletely bypassed, so that a higher charge air
temperature is maintained.
2. The valve reduces the accumulation of con-
densed water during engine operation un-
der tropical conditions by regulation of the
charge air temperature. Below a certain in-
take air temperature the charge air temper-
ature is kept constant. When the intake
temperature rises, the charge air tempera-
ture will be increased accordingly.
The three-way valve is to be designed for a pres-
sure loss of 0.3 - 0.6 bar and is to be equipped
with an actuator with high positioning speed.
The actuator must permit manual emergency
adjustment.
HE-002 / Lube oil cooler
See description in Chapter 6.2.1 "Lube oil sys-
tem description", Page 6-5. Heat data, flow
rates and tolerances are indicated in Chapter
"Engine characteristic data" Section "Planning
data". The principal design criteria for coolers
has been described before in paragraph "cooler
dimensioning, general".
HE-024 / LT-cooling water cooler
Heat data, flow rates and tolerances of the heat
sources are indicated in Chapter "Engine char-
acteristic data" Section "Planning data". The
principal design criteria for coolers has been de-
scribed before in paragraph "cooler dimension-
ing, general".
MOv-016 / LT cooling water temperature regula-
tor
This is a motor-actuated three-way regulating
valve with a linear characteristic. lt is to be in-
stalled as a mixing valve. lt maintains the LT
cooling water at set-point temperature, which is
32 C.
The three-way valve is to be designed for a pres-
sure loss of 0.3 - 0.6 bar. lt is to be equipped with
an actuator with normal positioning speed (high
speed not requiredj. The actuator must permit
manual emergency adjustment.
Caution!
For engine operation with reduced NOx emis-
sion, according to lMO requirement, at 100%
engine load and a seawater temperature of
25 C (lMO reference temperaturej, an LT cool-
ing water temperature of 32 C before charge air
cooler stage 2 (HE-008j is to be maintained.
Fil-021 / Strainer
ln order to protect the engine and system com-
ponents, several strainers are to be provided at
the places marked in the diagram before taking
the engine into operation for the first time. The
mesh size is 1mm.
HE-005 / Nozzle cooling water cooler
The nozzle cooling water system is a separate
and closed cooling circuit. lt is cooled down by
LT-cooling water via the nozzle cooling water
cooler (HE-005j. Heat data, flow rates and toler-
ances are indicated in Chapter "Engine charac-
teristic data" Section "Planning data". The
principal design criteria for coolers has been de-
scribed in paragraph "cooler dimensioning, gen-
eral". For plants with two main engines only one
nozzle cooling water cooler (HE-005j is needed.
See also "Chapter 6.3.3 "Nozzle cooling sys-
tem", Page 6-47". As an option a compact noz-
zle-cooling module (MOD-005j can be delivered,
see "Chapter 7.1.1 "Nozzle cooling water mod-
ule", Page 7-3". For plants with two main en-
gines only one nozzle-cooling module is
required.

HE-007 / MDO/MGO cooler
This cooler is required to dissipate the heat of
the fuel injection pumps during MDO/MGO op-
eration. For dimensioning the cooler capacity
see "Chapter 6.4.4 "Heavy Fuel Oil (HFOj supply
system", Page 6-69" and the a.m. paragraph
"cooler dimensioning, general". For plants with
more than one engine, connected to the same
fuel oil system, only one MDO/MGO cooler is re-
quired.
HE-022 / Oil cooler for speed governor
This cooler is required to dissipate the heat in
the hydraulic oil system of the engine speed
governor.
The cooler is attached to the governor (attached
on the enginej and is supplied by MAN Diesel.
Data for required LT-cooling water:
Cooling capacity 5.0 kW
LT cooling water flow rate 1.0 m/h
Note!
Not all types of speed governors need to be wa-
ter-cooled.
T-075 / LT cooling water expansion tank
The effective tank capacity should be high
enough to keep approx. 2/3 of the tank content
of T-002. ln case of twin-engine plants with a
common cooling water system, the tank capac-
ity should be by approx. 50% higher. The tanks
T-075 and T-002 should be arranged side by side
to facilitate installation. ln any case the tank
must be installed above the highest point of the
LT system.
6.3.1.2 HT Cooling water circuit
General
The HT cooling water system consists of the fol-
lowing coolers and heat exchangers:
Charge air cooler stage 1 (HE-010j
Cylinder cooling
HT cooler (HE-003j
Heat utilisation, e.g. freshwater generator
(HE-026j
HT cooling water preheater (H-020j
The HT cooling water pumps can be either of en-
gine-driven or electrically-driven type. The outlet
temperature of the cylinder cooling water at the
engine is to be adjusted to 90 C.
For HT cooling water systems, where more than
one main engine is integrated, each engine
should be provided with an individual engine
driven HT cooling water pump. Alternatively
common electrically-driven HT cooling water
pumps may be used for all engines. However, an
individual HT temperature control valve is re-
quired for each engine. The total cooler and
pump capacities are to be adapted accordingly.
The shipyard is responsible for the correct cool-
ing water distribution, ensuring that each engine
will be supplied with cooling water at the flow
rates required by the individual engines, under
all operating conditions. To meet this require-
ment, e.g., orifices, flow regulation valves, by-
pass systems etc. are to be installed were
necessary.
H-001 / Preheater
ln order to bring the cooling water temperature
up to 60 C, it is necessary to preheat the water
jacket of the cylinders before engine start-up.
The following table specifies the total heating
power required for preheating the HT cooling
water from 10 C to 60 C within 4 hours.
These values include the radiation heat losses
from the outer surface of the engine. Also a mar-
gin of 20% for heat losses of the cooling system
has been considered.

A secondary function of the preheater is to pro-
vide heat capacity in the HT cooling water sys-
tem during engine part-load operation. This is
required for marine propulsion plants with a high
freshwater requirement, e.g. on passenger ves-
sels, where frequent load changes are common.
lt is also required for arrangements with an addi-
tional charge air preheating by deviation of HT-
cooling water to the charge air cooler stage 2
(HE-008j. ln this case the heat output of the pre-
heater is to be increased by approx. 50%.
An electrically driven pump becomes necessary
to circulate the HT-cooling water during preheat-
ing. The required minimum flow rate is indicated
in Table 6-12.
Table 6-12 Minimum flow rate during preheating and
postcooling
The preheating of the main engine with cooling
water from the auxiliary engines is also possible,
provided that the cooling water is treated in the
same way. ln that case, the expansion tanks of
the two cooling systems have to be installed at
the same level. Furthermore, it must be checked
whether the available heat is sufficient for pre-
heating the main engine. This depends on the
number of auxiliary engines in operation and
their load. lt is recommended to install a sepa-
rate preheater for the main engine, as the avail-
able heat from the auxiliary engines may be
insufficient during operation in the port.
As an option MAN Diesel can supply a compact
preheating module (MOD-004j. One module for
each main engine is required.
HE-026 / Fresh water generator
The freshwater generator must be switched off
automatically when the cooling water tempera-
ture at the engine outlet drops below 88 C.
This will prevent operation of the engine at too
low temperatures.
HE-003 / HT cooling water cooler
Heat data, flow rates and tolerances of the heat
sources are indicated in "Chapter "Engine char-
acteristic data" Section "Planning data". The
principal design criteria of coolers has been de-
scribed before in paragraph "cooler dimension-
ing, general".
HT temperature control
The HT temperature control system consists of:
1 electronic temperature controller (TCj with
proportional-integral control characteristics
and additional inputs for external signals
(supplied by the engine control systemj.
1 electrically activated three-way mixing
valve with linear characteristic curve (MOv-
002j.
1 temperature sensor (PT100j TE, directly
downstream of the three-way mixing valve in
the supply pipe to charge-air cooler stage 1
(refer to the explanations given beneathj.
1 temperature sensor (PT100j TE, directly
downstream of the engine outlet.
lt serves to maintain the cylinder cooling water
temperature constantly at 90 C at the engine
outlet - even in the case of frequent load chang-
es - and to protect the engine from excessive
thermal load.

For adjusting the outlet water temperature (con-
stantly to 90 Cj to engine load and speed, the
cooling water inlet temperature is controlled.
The electronic water temperature controller rec-
ognizes deviations by means of the sensor at the
engine outlet and afterwards corrects the refer-
ence value accordingly.
The electronic temperature controller is installed
in the switch cabinet of the engine room.
For a stable control mode, the following bound-
ary conditions must be observed when design-
ing the HT freshwater system:
The PT100 temperature sensor is to be in-
stalled in the supply pipe to stage 1 of the
charge-air cooler. To ensure instantaneous
measurement of the mixing temperature of
the three-way mixing valve, the distance to
the valve should be 5 to 10 times the pipe di-
ameter.
The three-way valve (MOv-002j is to be in-
stalled as a mixing valve. lt is to be designed
for a pressure loss of 0.3 - 0.6 bar. lt is to be
equipped with an actuator of high positioning
speed. The actuator must permit manual
emergency adjustment.
The pipes within the system are to be kept as
short as possible in order to reduce the dead
times of the system, especially the pipes be-
tween the three-way mixing valve and the in-
let of the charge-air cooler stage 1 which, are
critical for the control.
The same system is required for each engine,
also for multi-engine installations with a com-
mon HT freshwater system.
ln case of a deviating system layout, MAN Diesel
is to be consulted.
P-002 / HT cooling water pumps
As an option the engine is available with an at-
tached (engine drivenj HT cooling water pump.
Alternatively also electrically driven HT cooling
water pumps can be used.
The standby pump has to be of the electrically
driven type.
lt is required to cool down the engine for a peri-
od of 15 minutes after shut down. For this pur-
pose the standby pump can be used. ln the case
that neither an electrically driven HT cooling wa-
ter pump nor an electrically driven standby
pump is installed (e.g. multi-engine plants with
engine driven HT-cooling water pump without
electrically driven HT standby pump, if applica-
ble by the classification rulesj, it is possible to
cool down the engine by the separate small pre-
heating pump see Table 6-12, or if the optional
preheating unit (MOD-004j with integrated circu-
lation pump is installed, it is also possible to cool
down the engine with this small pump. However,
the pump used to cool down the engine, has to
be electrically driven and started automatically
after engine shut down.
None of the cooling water pumps is a self-prim-
ing centrifugal pump.
Design flow rates should not be exceeded by
more than 15% to avoid cavitation in the engine
and its systems. A throttling orifice is to be fitted
for adjusting the specified operating point.
FSH-002 / Condensate monitoring tank
(not indicated in the diagramj
Only for acceptance by Bureau veritas:
The condensate deposition in the charge air
cooler is drained via the condensate monitoring
tank. A level switch releases an alarm when con-
densate is flooding the tank.
T-002 / HT cooling water expansion tank
The expansion tank compensates changes in
system volume and losses due to leakages. lt is
to be arranged in such a way, that the tank bot-
tom is situated above the highest point of the
system at any ship inclination. The expansion
pipe should empty into the suction pipe as close
to the pump as possible. The required volume of
the tank and the recommended installation
height is indicated in the "Chapter "Engine char-
acteristic data" Section "Planning data" (see:
cooling water cylinderj.

The tank is to be dimensioned and arranged in
such a way that the cooling water content of the
circuits of the cylinder, turbocharger and nozzle
cooling systems can be drained into it for main-
tenance purposes.
This is necessary to meet the requirements with
regard to environmental protection (water has
been treated with chemicalsj and corrosion inhi-
bition (re-use of conditioned cooling waterj.
P-031 / Transfer pump (not indicated in the dia-
gramj
The content of the collecting tank can be dis-
charged into the expansion tanks by a freshwa-
ter transfer pump.
6.3.1.4 Miscellaneous items
Piping
For piping, black steel pipe should be used.
Treatment of the cooling water as specified by
MAN Diesel will safely protect the inner pipe
walls against corrosion.
Galvanised steel pipe must not be used for the
piping of the system as all additives contained in
the engine cooling water attack zinc.
Moreover, there is the risk of the formation of lo-
cal electrolytic element couples where the zinc
layer has been worn off, and the risk of aeration
corrosion where the zinc layer is not properly
bonded to the substrate.
Please see the instructions in our "Work card
6682 000.16 - 01E" for cleaning of steel pipes
before fitting.
Pipe branches must be fitted to discharge in the
direction of flow in a flow-conducive manner.
venting is to be provided at the highest points of
the pipe system and drain openings at the low-
est points.
Cooling water pipes are to be designed accord-
ing to pressure class PN 6, flanges and engine
connections are often designed according to
PN 10.
Turbocharger washing equipment
The turbochargers of engines operating on
heavy fuel oil must be washed at regular inter-
vals. This requires the installation of a freshwater
supply line from the sanitary system to the tur-
bine washing equipment and two dirty-water
drain pipes via a funnel (for visual inspectionj to
the sludge tank.
The lance must be removed after every washing
process. This is a precautionary measure, which
serves to prevent an inadvertent admission of
water to the turbocharger.
The compressor washing equipment is com-
pletely mounted on the turbocharger and is sup-
plied with freshwater from a small tank.
Sea water pump
A self-priming service and standby pump, and a
harbour pump for the Diesel gensets must be in-
stalled. For calculating the delivery rate, the heat
to be dissipated in the LT and HT circuit is to be
taken in consideration.

6.3.3 Nozzle cooling system
General
The nozzles of the fuel injection valves are
cooled by fresh water circulation, therefore a
nozzle cooling water system is required. lt is a
separate and closed system recooled by the LT-
cooling water system, but not directly in contact
with the LT-cooling water. The nozzle cooling
water is to be treated with corrosion inhibitor ac-
cording to MAN Diesel specification "Quality of
engine cooling water" in chapter 3.
Note!
ln Diesel engines designed to operate preva-
lently on HFO the injection valves are to be
cooled during operation on HFO. ln the case
of MGO or MDO operation exceeding 72 hrs,
the nozzle cooling is to be switched off and
the supply line is to be closed. The return
pipe, however, has to remain open.
ln Diesel engines designed to operate exclu-
sively on MGO or MDO (no HFO operation
possiblej, nozzle cooling is not required. The
nozzle cooling system is omitted.
ln dual fuel engines (liquid fuel and gasj the
nozzles are to be cooled according to the en-
gine design.
P-005 / Cooling water pump
The centrifugal (non self-primingj pump dis-
charges the cooling water via cooler HE-005 and
the strainer FlL-021 to the header pipe on the
engine and then to the individual injection
valves. From here, it is pumped through a mani-
fold into the expansion tank from where it re-
turns to the pump.
One system can be installed for two engines.
T-076 / Expansion tank
The installation height above the crankshaft
centerline is shown in Chapter "Engine charac-
teristic data" Section "Planning data".
lf there is not enough room to install the tank at
the prescribed height, an alternative pressure
system of modular design is available, permit-
ting installation at the engine room floor level
next to the engine (see system drawing over-
leafj.
The system is to be closed with an over-/under-
pressure valve on tank top to prevent flashing to
steam.
HE-005 / Cooler
The cooler is to be connected in the LT cooling
water circuit according to schematic diagram.
Cooling of the nozzle cooling water is effected
by the LT cooling water.
lf an antifreeze is added to the cooling water, the
resulting lower heat transfer rate must be taken
into consideration. The cooler is to be provided
with venting and draining facilities.
TCv-005 / Temperature control valve
The temperature control valve with thermal-ex-
pansion elements regulates the flow through the
cooler to reach the required inlet temperature of
the nozzle cooling water. lt has a regulating
range from approx. 50 C (valve begins to open
the pipe from the coolerj to 60C (pipe from the
cooler completely openj.
FlL-021 / Strainer
To protect the nozzles for the first commission-
ing of the engine a strainer has to be provided.
The mesh size is 0.4 mm.
TE / Temperature sensor
The sensor is mounted upstream of the engine
and is delivered loose by MAN Diesel. Wiring to
the common engine terminal box is present.

6.3.4 Nozzle cooling water module
Purpose
The nozzle cooling water module serves for
cooling the fuel injection nozzles on the engine
in a closed nozzle cooling water circuit.
Design
The nozzle cooling water module consists of a
storage tank, on which all components required
for nozzle cooling are mounted.
Description
By means of a circulating pump, the nozzle cool-
ing water is pumped from the service tank
through a heat exchanger and to the fuel injec-
tion nozzles. The return pipe is routed back to
the service tank, via a sight glass. Through the
sight glass, the nozzle cooling water can be
checked for contamination. The heat exchanger
is integrated in the LT cooling water system. By
means of a temperature control valve, the nozzle
cooling water temperature upstream of the noz-
zles is kept constant. The performance of the
service pump is monitored within the module by
means of a flow switch. lf required, the optional
standby pump integrated in the module, is start-
ed.
Throughput 0.8 - 10.0 m/h nozzle cooling water,
suitable for cooling of all number of cylinders of
the engine types 32/40 - 58/64 and single/ dou-
ble engine plants.
Required flow rates for the respective engine
types and number of cylinders see Chapter "En-
gine characteristic data" Section "Planning da-
ta".

6.3.5 Cleaning systems
Charge air cooler - air side
Deposits accumulating on the air side of the
charge air cooler reduce heat conductivity and
increase the pressure drop to an unacceptable
level. Therefore, deposits must be removed reg-
ularly.
The cooler bundle can be cleaned without being
removed. Prior to filling with cleaning solvent,
the charge air cooler and its adjacent housings
must be isolated from the turbocharger and
charge air pipe using blind flanges.
Four flexible hoses must be connected to the
adjacent housings of the charge air cooler.
T-077 / Cleaning tank
The volume of the tank must exceed the filling
capacity of the charge air cooler stated in the ta-
ble by about 200 litres.
Table 6-13 Filling capacities of charge air cooler casing
The delivery rate of the circulating pump must
be choosen so as to ensure that the charge air
cooler is filled within 30 min.
The dirt particles which have been flushed into
the cleaning tank from the charge air cooler are
caught by exchangeable filter mats or by a filter
installed on the delivery side of pump.
ln order to ensure a complete drainage of all
pipes, the tank should be installed at the lowest
point of the system.
A steam connection with pressure gauge and
two drainage connections leading to the dirt-
water collecting tank is to be provided to carry
out the necessary subsequent cleaning with
steam.

6.4.3 Heavy Fuel Oil (HFOj treatment system
A prerequisite for safe and reliable engine oper-
ation with a minimum of servicing is a properly
designed and well-functioning fuel oil treatment
system.
The schematic diagram shows the system com-
ponents required for fuel treatment for HFO.
Bunker
Fuel compatibility problems are avoidable if mix-
ing of newly bunkered fuel with remaining fuel
can be prevented by a suitable number of bun-
kers.
Heating coils in bunkers to be designed so that
the HFO in it is at a temperature of at least 10 C
minimum above the pour point.
P-038 / Transfer pump
The transfer pump discharges fuel from the bun-
kers into the settling tanks. Being a srew pump,
it handles the fuel gently, thus prevent water be-
ing emulsified in the fuel. lts capacity must be
sized so that complete settling tank can be filled
in 2 hours.
T-016 / Settling tank for HFO
Two settling tanks should be installed, in order to
obtain thorough precleaning and to allow fuels
of different origin to be kept separate.
Size
Precleaning by settling is the more effective the
longer the solid material is given time to settle.
The storage capacity of the settling tank should
be designed to hold at least a 24-hour supply of
fuel at full load operation, including sediments
and water the fuel contains.
The minimum volume v to be provided is:
v Minimum volume . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . m
P Engine rating . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . kW
Tank heating
The heating surfaces should be so dimensioned
that the tank content can be evenly heated to
75 C within 6 to 8 hours.
The supply of heat should be automatically con-
trolled, depending upon the fuel oil temperature.
ln order to avoid
agitation of the sludge due to heating, the
heating coils should be arranged at a suffi-
cient distance from the tank bottom.
the formation of asphaltenes, the fuel oil tem-
perature should not be allowed to exceed
75 C.
the formation of carbon deposits on the heat-
ing surfaces, the heat transferred per unit sur-
face must not exceed 1.1 W/cm.
Design
The tank is to be fitted with baffle plates in lon-
gitudinal and transverse direction in order to re-
duce agitation of the fuel in the tank in rough
seas as far as possible. The suction pipe of the
separator must not reach into the sludge space.
One or more sludge drain valves, depending on
the slant of the tank bottom (preferably 10j, are
to be provided at the lowest point. Tanks reach-
ing to the ship hull must be heat loss protected
by a cofferdam. The settling tank is to be insulat-
ed against thermal losses.
Sludge must be removed from the settling tank
before the separators draw fuel from it.
T-021 /Sludge tank
lf disposal by an incinerator plant is not planned,
the tank has to be dimensioned so that it is ca-
pable to absorb all residues which accumulate
during the operation in the course of a maximum
duration of voyage. ln order to render emptying
of the tank possible, it has to be heated. The
heating is to be dimensioned so that the content
of the tank can be heated to approx. 60 C

P-015 / Heavy fuel supply pump
The supply pumps should preferably be of the
free-standing type, i.e. not mounted on the sep-
arator, as the delivery volume can be matched
better to the required throughput.
H-008 / Preheater for HFO
To reach the separating temperature a preheater
matched to the fuel viscosity has to be installed.
CF-002 / Separator
As a rule, poor quality, high viscosity fuel is used.
Two new generation separators must therefore
be installed.
From Alfa Laval: Alcap, type SU
From Westfalia: Unitrol, type OSD
Separators must always be provided in sets of 2
of the same type
- 1 service separator
- 1 stand-by separator
of self-cleaning type.
As a matter of principle, all separators are to be
equipped with an automatic program control for
continuous desludging and monitoring.
Mode of operation
The stand-by separator is always to be put into
service, to achieve the best possible fuel clean-
ing effect with the separator plant as installed.
The piping of both separators is to be arranged
in accordance with the makers advice, prefera-
bly for both parallel and series operation.
The discharge flow of the free-standing dirty oil
pump is to be split up equally between the two
separators in parallel operation.
The freshwater supplied must be treated as
specified by the separator supplier.
Size
The separators are dimensioned in accordance
with the separator manufacturers' guidelines.
The required flow rate Q can be roughly deter-
mined by the following equation:

Q Separator flow rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . l/h
P Engine rating . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . kW
be Fuel consumption (see belowj . . . . . g/kWh
Density at separating temp. approx. 0.93 kg/l
With the evaluated flow rate the size of separator
has to be selected acc. to the evaluation table of
the manufacturer. MAN Diesel strictly recom-
mend to use evaluation tables according to a
"Certified flow rate" (CFRj. The separator rating
stated by the manufacturer should be higher
than the flow rate Q calculated according to the
above formula.
By means of the seprarator flow rate which was
determined in this way, the separator type, de-
pending on the fuel viscosity, is selected from
the lists of the separator manufacturers.
For determining the maximum fuel consumption
(bej, increase the specific table value by 15 %.
This increase takes into consideration:
tropical conditions
the engine-mounted pumps
the calorific value fluctuations
the consumption tolerance
Withdrawal points for samples
Points for drawing fuel oil samples are to be pro-
vided upstream and downstream of each sepa-
rator, to verify the effectiveness of these system
components.

6.4.4 Heavy Fuel Oil (HFOj supply system
To ensure that high-viscosity fuel oils achieve
the specified injection viscosity, a preheating
temperature is necessary, which may cause de-
gassing problems in conventional, pressureless
systems.
A remedial measure is adopting a pressurised
system in which the required system pressure is
1 bar above the evaporation pressure of water.
Table 6-18 lnjection viscosity and temperature after final preheater
The indicated pressures are minimum require-
ments due to the fuel characteristic. Neverthe-
less, to meet the required fuel pressure at the
engine inlet (see Chapter 2.2.5 "Planning data"j,
the pressure in the mixing tank and booster cir-
cuit becomes normally higher as indicated in
this table.
T-022 / Heavy fuel oil service tank
The heavy fuel oil cleaned in the separator is
passed to the service tank, and as the separa-
tors are in continuous operation, the tank is al-
ways kept filled. To fulfill this requirement it is
necessary to fit the heavy fuel oil service tank T-
022 with overflow pipes, which are connected
with the setting tanks T-016. The tank capacity
is to be designed for at least 8-hours' fuel supply
at full load so as to provide for a sufficient period
of time for separator maintenance. The tank
should have a sludge space with a tank bottom
inclination of preferably 10, with sludge drain
valves at the lowest point, and is to be equipped
with heating coils.
The sludge must be drained from the service
tank at regular intervals.
The heating coils are to be designed for a tank
temperature of 75 C.
The rules and regulations for tanks issued by the
classification societies must be observed.
T-003 / MDO/MGO service tank
The classification societies specify that at least
two service tanks are to be installed on board.
The minimum volume of each tank should, in ad-
dition to the MDO/MGO consumption of the
generating sets, enable an eight-hour full load
operation of the main engine.
Cleaning of the MDO/MGO by an additional
separator should, in the first place, be designed
to meet the requirements of the Diesel generator
sets on board. The tank should be provided, like
the heavy fuel oil service tank, with a sludge
space with sludge drain valve and with an over-
flow pipe from the MDO/MGO service tank T-
003 to the MDO/MGO storage tank T-015.

quired system pressure (see Table 6-18, Page 6-
69 j, the required pressure in the mixing tank and
the resistance of the automatic filter, flow meter

The recommended design height of the supply
pump is 7.0 bar for conventional and common
rail fuel injection systems.
HE-025 / Finned-tube cooler
lf no fuel is consumed in the system while the
pump is in operation, the finned-tube cooler pre-
vents excessive heating of the fuel.
lts cooling surface must be adequate to dissi-
pate the heat that is produced by the pump to
the ambient air.

T-011 / Mixing tank
The mixing tank compensates pressure surges
which occur in the pressurised part of the fuel
system. For this purpose, there has to be an air
cushion in the tank. As this air cushion is ex-
hausted during operation, compressed air (max.
10 barj has to be refilled via the control air con-
nection from time to time.
Before prolonged shutdowns the system is
changed over to MDO/MGO operation. The tank
volume shall be designed to achieve gradual
temperature equalisation within 5 minutes in the
case of half-load consumption.
The tank shall be designed for the maximum
possible service pressure, usually approx. 10
bar and is to be accepted by the classification
society in question.
The expected operating pressure in the mixing
tank depends on the required fuel oil pressure at
the inlet (see Chapter 2.2.5 Planning dataj and
the pressure losses of the installed components
and pipes.
Table 6-22 Example for the determination of the expected operating pressure of the mixing tank
ln this example the calculated operating pres-
sure in the mixing tank is (for all HFO viscositiesj
higher than the min. required fuel pressure ac-
cording to Table 6-18 lnjection viscosity and
temperature after final preheater.

Table 6-24 Example for the determination of the expected operating delivery height of the bosster pump
lt is recommended to install booster pumps de-
signed for a delivery height of 7.0 bar for con-
ventional injection systems and 9.0 bar for
common rail injection systems (safety allowance
includedj.
H-004 / Final preheater
The capacity of the final-preheater shall be de-
termined on the basis of the injection tempera-
ture at the nozzle, to which 4 K must be added
to compensate for heat losses in the piping.
The piping for both heaters shall be arranged for
separate and series operation.
Parallel operation with half the throughput must
be avoided due to the risk of sludge deposits.
vl-001 / viscosity measuring and control de-
vice
This device regulates automatically the heating
of the final-preheater depending on the viscosity
of the bunkered fuel oil, so that the fuel will reach
the nozzles with the viscosity required for injec-
tion.
Fil-013 / Duplex filter
This filter is to be installed upstream of the en-
gine and as close as possible to the engine.
The emptying port of each filter chamber is to be
fitted with a valve and a pipe to the sludge tank.
lf the strainer elements are removed for clean-
ing, the filter chamber must be emptied.This
prevents the dirt particles remaining in the filter
casing from migrating to the clean oil side of the
filter.
Design criterion is the filter area load specified
by the filter manufacturer.

Table 6-26 Duplexfilter
FBv-010 / Flow balancing valve (throttle
valvej
The flow balancing valve at engine outlet is to be
installed only (one per enginej in multi engine ar-
rangements connected to the same fuel system.
lt is used to balance the fuel flow through the en-
gines. Each engine has to be feed with its cor-
rect , individual fuel flow.
FSH-001 / Leakage fuel monitoring tank.
lf an injection pipe bursts, the escaping fuel is
carried by the jacket pipe to the monitoring tank
from which it is drained into the leakage oil col-
lecting tank. The float switch mounted in the
tank must be connected to the alarm system.
All parts of the monitored leakage system (pipes
and monitoring tankj have to be designed for a
fuel rate of 6,7 l/(minxCyl.j. The classification so-
cieties require the installation of a monitoring
tank for unmanned engine rooms. Lloyd's Reg-
ister specify a monitoring tank for manned en-
gine rooms as well.
Table 6-27 Leakage fuel monitoring tank
T-006 / Leakage oil collecting tank for fuel
and lube oil
Leak fuel and leak oil are collected in the leakage
oil collecting tank. lt must be emptied into the
sludge tank.
The content must not be added to the fuel.
Alternatively, separate leakage oil tanks for fuel
and lubricating oil can be installed.
The leak rate for both media is listed in the table
below.
Table 6-28 Leak rate (fuel and lube oilj
Withdrawal points for samples
Points for drawing fuel oil samples are to be pro-
vided upstream and downstream of each filter,
to verify the effectiveness of these system com-
ponents.
HE-007/CK-003
MDO/MGO cooler/three way cock
With these fittings, the MDO/MGO cooler HE-
007 has to be switched on when the plant is
switched over to MDO/MGO operation. That
way, the MDO/MGO, which was heated while
circulating via the injection pumps, is recooled
before it is returned to the mixing tank T-011.
Switching over of these fittings to the MDO/
MGO cooler may be effected only after flushing
the pipes with MDO/MGO. The MDO/MGO-
cooler is cooled by LT cooling water.

The design pressure of the MDO-cooler is PN

Table 6-29 Simplified MDO-cooler dimensioning
PCv-011 / Pressure limiting valve
ln case two engines are operated with one fuel
module, it has to be possible to separate one
engine at a time from the fuel circuit for mainte-
nance purposes. ln order to avoid a pressure in-
crease in the pressurised system, the fuel, which
cannot circulate through the shut-off engne, has
to be rerouted via this valve into the return pipe.
This valve is to be adjusted so that rerouting is
effected only when the pressure, in comparison
to normal operation (multi-engine operationj, is
exceeded.
v-002 / Shut-off cock
The stop cock is closed during normal operation
(multi-engine operationj. When one engine is
separated from the fuel circuit for maintenance
pruposes, this cock has to be opened.
T-008 / Pressure peaks compensation tank
The injection nozzles cause pressure peaks in
the pressurised part of the fuel system. ln order
to protect the viscosity measuring and control
unit, these pressure peaks have to be equalised
by a compensation tank.The volume of the pres-
sure peaks compensation tank is 20l.
Piping
We recommend to use pipes according to PN16
for the fuel system (more information see Chap-
ter 6.1.1 "Pipe dimensioning", Page 6-3j.
Material
The casing material of pumps and filters should
be EN-GJS (nodular cast ironj, in accordance to
the requirements of the classification societies.

6.5 Compressed air system
6.5.1 Starting air system
Marine main engines
The compressed air supply to the engine plant
requires air vessels and air compressors of a ca-
pacity and air delivery rating which will meet the
requirements of the relevant classification soci-
ety (see the following chapter "Starting air ves-
sels, compressors"j.
1 C-001, 2 C-001, 3 C-001 / Air compressor
1 service compressor . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 C-001
1 auxiliary compressor . . . . . . . . . . . 1 C-001
1 Jet Assist compressor . . . . . . . . . . 1 C-001
These are multi-stage compressor sets with
safety valves, cooler for compressed air and
condensate traps.
The operational compressor is switched on by
the pressure control at low pressure, respective-
ly switched off at max. service pressure.
A max. service pressure of 30 bar is required.
The standard design pressure of the starting air
vessels is 30 bar and the design temperature is
50C.
The service compressor is electrically driven, the
auxiliary compressor may also be driven by a
Diesel engine. The capacity of both compres-
sors (1 C-001 and 2 C-001j is identical.
The total capacity of the compressors has to be
increased if the engine is equipped with Jet As-
sist. This can be met either by providing a larger
service compressor, or by an additional com-
pressor (3 C-001j.
For special operating conditions such as, e.g.,
dredging service, the capacity of the compres-
sors has to be adjusted to the respective re-
quirements of operation.
1 T-007, 2 T-007 / Starting air vessels
The installation situation of the air vessels must
ensure a good drainage of condensed water. Air
vessels, if supplied by MAN Diesel, must be in-
stalled with a downward slope of 10 towards
the bottom end.
The installation situation also has to ensure that
during emergency discharging of the safety
valve no persons can be compromised.
lt is not allowed to weld supports (or otherj on
the air vessels. The original design must not be
altered. Air vessels are to be bedded and fixed
by use of external supporting structures.
T-018 / Air vessel for Jet Assist
Technical notes identical to 1 T-007, 2 T-007 /
starting air vessels.
As an alternative it is possible to omit the sepa-
rate air vessel for Jet Assist (T-018j. ln this case,
the volume of the starting air vessels (1 T-007, 2
T-007j must be increased accordingly.
Piping
The main starting pipe (engine connection
7171j, connected to both air vessels, leads to
the main starting valve (MSv- 001j of the engine.
A second 30 bar pressure line (engine connec-
tion 7172j with separate connections to both air
vessels supplies the engine with control air. This
does not require larger air vessels.
A line branches off the aforementioned control
air pipe to supply other air-consuming engine
accessories (e.g. lube oil automatic filter, fuel oil
filterj with compressed air through a separate
30/8 bar pressure reducing station.
A third 30 bar pipe is required for engines with
Jet Assist (engine connection 7177j. Depending
on the air vessel arrangement, this pipe can be
branched off from the starting air pipe near en-
gine or must be connected separately to the air
vessel for Jet Assist.
Additional connections on the air vessels are
provided for air requirements of the ship and for
the horn. The pipes to be connected by the ship-

yard have to be supported immediately behind
their connection to the engine. Further supports
are required at sufficiently short distance.
Galvanised steel pipe must not be used for the
piping of the system.
General requirements of classification socie-
ties
The equipment provided for starting the engines
must enable the engines to be started from the
operating condition 'zero' with shipboard facili-
ties, i.e. without outside assistance.
Compressors
Two or more starting air compressors must be
provided. At least one of the air compressors
must be driven independently of the main en-
gine and must supply at least 50 % of the re-
quired total capacity.
The total capacity of the starting air compres-
sors is to be calculated so that the air volume
necessary for the required number of starts is
topped up by the atmospheric pressure within
one hour.
The compressor capacities stated in the table
are calculated as follows:
P Total volumetric capacity . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . m/h
of the compressors
v Total volume of the starting air vessels. . . . . . . . . litre
at 30 bar service pressure
As a rule, compressors of identical ratings
should be provided. An emergency compressor,
if provided, is to be disregarded in this respect.
Starting air vessels
The starting air supply is to be split up into not
less than two starting air vessels of about the
same size, which can be used independently of
each another.
The sizes of the starting air vessels for the re-
spective engines are listed in the chapter "Start-
ing air vessels, compressors".
Diesel-mechanical main engine:
For each non-reversible main engine driving a
C.P.-propeller, or where starting without counter
torque is possible, the stored starting air must
be sufficient for a certain number of starting ma-
noeuvres, normally 6 per engine. The exact
number of required starting manoeuvres de-
pends on the arrangement of the propulsion
system and on the special requirements of the
classification society.
Diesel-electric auxiliary engine:
For auxiliary marine engines, separate air tanks
shall only be installed in case of turbine-driven
vessels, or if the auxiliary sets in engine-driven
vessels are installed far away from the main pro-
pulsion plant.
Diesel-electric main engine:
For each Diesel-electric main engine the stored
starting air must be sufficient for a certain
number of starting manoeuvres, normally 6 per
engine. The exact number of required starting
manoeuvres depends on the number of engines
and on the special requirements of the classifi-
cation society.

6.5.2 Starting air vessels, compressors
General
The engine requires compressed air for starting,
start-turning, for the Jet Assist function as well
as several pneumatic controls. The design of the
pressure air vessel directly depends on the air
consumption and the requirements of the classi-
fication societies.
Table 6-32 Starting air consumption 48/60B
The air consumption per starting manoeuvre
depends on the inertia moment of the unit.
For generator plants, 1.5 times the air con-
sumption per starting manoeuvre has to be
expected.
The above-mentioned air consumption per
Jet Assist activation is valid for a jet duration
of 5 seconds. The jet duration may vary be-
tween 3 sec and 10 sec, depending on the
loading (average jet duration 5 secj. The air
consumption is substantially determined by
the respective turbocharger design.
For more information concerning Jet Assist
see Chapter 6.5.3 "Jet Assist", Page 6-91.
The air consumption per slow-turn activation
depends on the inertia moment of the unit.
Starting air vessels:
Service pressure . . . . . . . . . . . . . . max. 30 bar
Minimum starting air pressure . . . min. 10 bar
Starting air compressors:
The total capacity of the starting air compres-
sors has to be capable to charge the air receiv-
ers from the atmospheric pressure to full
pressure of 30 bar within one hour.

ume of the starting air supply is to be fixed in ag-
grement with the respective classification
society.
ln this connection, the number of starts required
for each engine is generally reduced.

6.5.3 Jet Assist
General
Jet Assist is a system for acceleration of the tur-
bocharger. By means of nozzles in the turbo-
charger, compressed air is directed to the
compressor wheel resulting in its acceleration.
This causes the turbocharger to adapt more rap-
idly to a new load condition and improves the re-
sponse of the engine.
Air consumption
The air consumption for Jet Assist is, to a great
extent, dependent on the load profile of the en-
gine. ln case of frequently and quickly changing
load steps, Jet Assist will be actuated more of-
ten than this will be the case during long routes
at largely constant load.
Air consumption (litrej see chapter 6.5.2 Starting
air vessels, compressors.
General data
Jet Assist air pressure (overpress.j max. 4 bar
At the engine connection the pressure is max.
30 bar. The air pressure will reduced on the en-
gine by an orifice to max. 4 bar (overpressj.
Activation below 50% load:
at constant speed mode when speed drops
quickly and fuel admission rises
at combinator mode the power command le-
ver in the control room is changed quickly for
load request
Jet Assist activating time:
3 sec to 10 sec (5 sec in averagej
Deactivation of Jet Assist:
after 10 sec activating time or

Dynamic positioning for drilling vessels, cable-
laying vessels, off-shore applications
When applying dynamic positioning, pulsating
load application of > 25% may occur frequently,
up to 30 times per hour. ln these cases, the pos-
sibility of a specially adapted, separate com-
pressed air system has always to be checked.
Air supply
Generally, larger air bottles are to be provided for
the air supply of the Jet Assist.
lf the planned load profile is expecting a high re-
quirement of Jet Assist, it should be checked
whether an air supply from the working air cir-
cuit, a separate air bottle or a specially adapted,
separate compressed air system is necessary or
reasonable.
ln each case the delivery capacity of the com-
pressors is to be adapted to the expected Jet
Assist requirement per unit of time.

6.6 Combustion air
General informations
Engine room ventilation system
lts purpose is
supplying the engines and auxiliary boilers
with combustion air
carrying off the radiant heat from all installed
engines and auxiliaries
Combustion air
The combustion air must be free from spray wa-
ter, dust and oil mist.
This is achieved by:
Louvres, protected against the head wind,
with baffles in the back and optimally dimen-
sioned suction space so as to reduce the air
flow velocity to 1-1,5 m/s.
Self-cleaning air filter in the suction space (re-
quired for dustladen air, e.g. cement, ore or
grain carrierj.
Sufficient space between the intake point and
the openings of exhaust air ducts from the
engine and separator room as well as vent
pipes from lube oil and fuel oil tanks and the
air intake louvres. (The influence of winds
must be taken into considerationj.
Positioning of engine room doors on the
ship's deck so that no oil-laden air and warm
engine room air will be drawn in when the
doors are open.
Arranging the separator station at a suffi-
ciently large distance from the turbochargers.
The combustion air is normally drawn in from the
engine room.
The MAN Diesel turbochargers are fitted with an
air intake silencer and can additionally be
equipped with an air filter to meet with special
circumstances, in which case the cleaning inter-
vals for the compressor impeller of the turbo-
charger and for the charge air cooler can be
extended.
The air intake filter will retain 95 % of the parti-
cles larger than 10 mm.
ln tropical service a sufficient volume of air must
be supplied to the turbocharger(sj at outside air
temperature. For this purpose there must be an
air duct installed for each turbocharger, with the
outlet of the duct facing the respective intake air
silencer, separated from the latter by a space of
1.5 m. No water of condensation from the air
duct must be allowed to be drawn in by the tur-
bocharger.
The air stream must not be directed onto the ex-
haust manifold.
ln arctic service the air must be heated to at
least 0 C. lf necessary, steam heated air pre-
heaters must be provided.
For the required combustion air quantity, see
Chapter "Engine characteristic data" Section
"Planning data". Cross-sections of air supply
ducts are to be designed to obtain the following
air flow velocities:
- Main ducts 8-12 m/s
- Secondary ducts max. 8 m/s.
Air fans are to be designed so as to maintain a
positive air pressure of 50 Pa (5 mmWCj in the
engine room.
Radiant heat
The heat radiated from the main and auxiliary
engines, from the exhaust manifolds, waste heat
boilers, silencers, generators, compressors,
electrical equipment, steam and condensate
pipes, heated tanks and other auxiliaries is ab-
sorbed by the engine room air.
The amount of air v required to carry off this ra-
diant heat can be calculated as follows:
v Air required. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . m3/h

6.7 Exhaust gas system
6.7.1 General informations
Layout
As the flow resistance in the exhaust system has
a very large influence on the fuel consumption
and the thermal load of the engine, the total re-
sistance of the exhaust gas system must not ex-
ceed 30 mbar.
Permissible values for special cases please con-
tact MAN Diesel.
The pipe diameter to be selected depends on
the engine output, the exhaust gas volume, the
length and arrangement of the piping as well as
the number of bends. Sharp bends result in very
high flow resistance and should therefore be
avoided. lf necessary, pipe bends must be pro-
vided with cascades.
We recommend a guideline for the exhaust gas
velocity in the pipe of 40 m/s.
lnstallation
When installing the exhaust system, the follow-
ing points must be observed:
The exhaust pipes of two or more engines
must not be joined.
The exhaust pipes must be able to expand.
The expansion joints to be provided for this
purpose are to be mounted between fixed-
point pipe supports installed in suitable posi-
tions. One sturdy fixed-point support must be
provided for the expansion joint on the turbo-
charger. lt should be positioned, if possible,
immediately above the expansion joint in or-
der to prevent the transmission of forces to
the turbocharger, resulting from the weight,
thermal expansion or lateral displacement of
the exhaust piping.
The exhaust piping should be elastically hung
or supported by means of dampers in order
to keep the transmission of sound to other
parts of the ship to a minimum.
The exhaust piping is to be provided with wa-
ter drains, which are to be kept constantly
opened for draining the condensation water
or possible leak water from boilers.
During commissioning and maintenance
work, checking of the exhaust gas counter
pressure by means of a temporarily connect-
ed measuring device may become neces-
sary. For this purpose, a measuring socket is
to be provided approx. 1-2 m after the ex-
haust gas outlet of the turbocharger at an
easily acceptance place. Usual pressure
measuring devices require a measuring sock-
et size of 1/2". This measuring socket is to be
provided as to ensure utilisation without any
damage to the exhaust gas pipe insulation.

6.7.2 Components and assemblies
Mode of operation
The silencer operates on the absorption princi-
ple which means that it is effective in a wide fre-
quency band. The flow path, which runs through
the silencer in a straight line, ensures optimum
noise reduction with minimum flow resistance.
lnstallation
lf possible, the silencer should be installed to-
wards the end of the exhaust line; the exact po-
sition can be adapted to the space available
(from vertical to horizontalj. ln case of silencers
with spark arrester, it must be ensured that the
cleaning ports are accessible.
lnsulation
The exhaust gas pipe system has to be insulated
to reduce the maximum surface temperature to
the required level and to avoid temperatures be-
low the dew point. So the complete exhaust gas
system (from outlet of turbocharger, silencer,
boiler to outlet stackj should be sufficiently insu-
lated, particularly when burning on liquid fuel.
Also to avoid temperatures below the dew point,
the exhaust gas piping to the outside, including
boiler and silencer, should be insulated to avoid
intensified corrosion and soot deposits on the
interior surface of the exhaust gas pipe. ln case
of fast load changes, such deposits might flake
off and be entrained by exhaust in the form of
soot flakes.
The rectangular flange connection on the turbo-
charger outlet, as well as the adjecent round
flanges of the adaptor, must also be covered
with insulating collars, for reasons of safety.
lnsulation and covering of the compensator may
not restrict its freedom of movement.
The relevant provisions concerning accident
prevention and those of the classification socie-
ties must be observed.

8.1 Engine room ventilation
Purpose
The engine room ventilation system serves to
supplying the engines and auxiliary boilers
with combustion air
carrying off the radiant heat from all installed
engines and auxiliaries.
Combustion air
The combustion air must be free from spray wa-
ter, dust and oil mist.
This is achieved by:
Louvres, protected against the head wind,
with baffles in the back and optimally dimen-
sioned suction space so as to reduce the air
flow velocity to 1-1,5 m/s.
Self-cleaning air filter in the suction space (re-
quired for dustladen air, e.g. cement, ore or
grain carrierj.
Sufficient space between the intake point and
the openings of exhaust air ducts from the
engine and separator room as well as vent
pipes from lube oil and fuel oil tanks and the
air intake louvres. (The influence of winds
must be taken into considerationj.
Positioning of engine room doors on the
ship's deck so that no oil-laden air and warm
engine room air will be drawn in when the
doors are open.
Arranging the separator station at a suffi-
ciently large distance from the turbochargers.
The combustion air is normally drawn in from the
engine room. The MAN Diesel turbochargers are
fitted with an air intake silencer and can addi-
tionally be equipped with an air filter to meet
with special circumstances, in which case the
cleaning intervals for the compressor impeller of
the turbocharger and for the charge air cooler
can be extended. The air intake filter will retain
95 % of the particles larger than 10 m.
ln tropical service a sufficient volume of air must
be supplied to the turbocharger(sj at outside air
temperature. For this purpose there must be an
air duct installed for each turbocharger, with the
outlet of the duct facing the respective intake air
silencer, separated from the latter by a space of
1.5 m. No water of condensation from the air
duct must be allowed to be drawn in by the tur-
bocharger.The air stream must not be directed
onto the exhaust manifold.
ln arctic service the air must be heated to at
least 0 C. lf necessary, steam heated air pre-
heaters must be provided

9.1 lnstallation and arrangement
9.1.1 General details
Apart from a functional arrangement of the com-
ponents, the shipyard is to provide for an engine
room layout ensuring good accessibility of the
components for servicing.
The cleaning of the cooler tube bundle, the emp-
tying of filter chambers and subsequent clean-
ing of the strainer elements, and the emptying
and cleaning of tanks must be possible without
any problem whenever required.
All of the openings for cleaning on the entire unit,
including those of the exhaust silencers, must
be accessible.
There should be sufficient free space for tempo-
rary storage of pistons, timing shafts, exhaust
gas turbochargers etc. dismounted from the en-
gine. Additional space is required for the mainte-
nance personnel. The panels in the engine sides
for inspection of the bearings and removal of
components must be accessible without taking
up floor plates or disconnecting supply lines and
piping. Free space for installation of a torsional
vibration meter should be provided at the crank-
shaft end.
A very important point is that there should be
enough room for storing and handling vital spare
parts so that replacements can be made without
loss of time.
ln planning marine installations with two or more
engines driving one propeller shaft through a
multi-engine transmission gear, provision must
be made for a minimum clearance between the
engines because the crankcase panels of each
must be accessible. Moreover, there must be
free space on both sides of each engine for pull-
ing pistons or cylinder liners.
Special note:
MAN Diesel supplied scope is to be arranged
and fixed by proven technical experiences as
per state of the art. Therefore the technical re-
quirements have to be taken in consideration as
described in the following documents subse-
quential:
Order related engineering documents.
lnstallation documents of our subsuppliers
for vendor specified equipment.
Operating manuals for Diesel engines and
auxiliaries.
Project guides of MAN Diesel.
Any deviations from the principles specified in
the a.m. documents provides a previous ap-
proval by us.
Arrangements for fixitation and/or supporting of
plant related equipment attached to the scope
supplied by us, not described in the a.m. docu-
ments and not agreed with us are not allowed.
For damages due to such arrangements we will
not take over any responsibility.

9.1.6 Lifting appliance
Lifting gear with varying lifting capacities are to
be provided for servicing and repair work on the
engine, turbocharger and charge-air cooler.
Engine
Lifting capacity
An overhead travelling crane is required which
has a lifting power equal to the heaviest compo-
nent that has to be lifted during servicing of the
engine.
The overhead travelling crane can be chosen
with the aid of the following table.
Table 9-1 Lifting capacity
Crane arrangement
The rails for the crane are to be arranged in such
a way that the crane can cover the whole of the
engine beginning at the exhaust pipe. The hook
position must reach along the engine axis, past
the centreline of the first and the last cylinder, so
that valves can be dismantled and installed
without pulling at an angle. Similarly, the crane
should be able to reach the tierod at the ends of
the engine. ln cramped conditions, eyelets must
be welded under the deck above, to accommo-
date a lifting pulley.
The required crane capacity to be determined by
the crane supplier.
Crane design
lt is necessary that:
There is an arresting device for securing the
crane while hoisting if there is a seaway.
There is a two-stage lifting speed.
Precision hoisting = 0,5 m/min
Normal hoisting = 2 - 4 m/min
Places of storage
ln planning the arrangement of the crane, a stor-
age space must be provided in the engine room
for the dismantled engine components which
can be reached by the crane. lt should be capa-
ble of holding two rocker arm casings, two cyl-
inder covers and two pistons. lf the cleaning and
service work is to be carried out here, additional
space for cleaning troughs and work surfaces
should be planned for.
Transport to the workshop
Grinding of valve cones and valve seats is car-
ried out in the workshop or in a neighbouring
room.
Transport rails and appropriate lifting tackle are
to be provided for the further transport of the
complete cylinder cover from the storage space
to the workshop. For the necessary deck open-
ings, see turbocharger casing.

Turbocharger
Hoisting rail
A hoisting rail with a mobile trolley is to be pro-
vided over the centre of the turbocharger run-
ning parallel to its axis, into which a lifting tackle
is suspended with the relevant lifting power for
lifting the above-mentioned parts (see tablej, to
carry out the operations according to the main-
tenance schedule.
Table 9-2 Hoisting rail for NR/NA turbocharger
Table 9-3 Hoisting rail for TCA turbocharger
Table 9-4 Hoisting rail for TCR turbocharger
Withdrawal space dimensions
The withdrawal space dimensions shown in our
dimensioned sketch of the engine and in the
above table are needed in order to be able to
separate the silencer from the turbocharger. The
silencer must be shifted axially by this distance
before it can be moved laterally.
ln addition to this measure, another 100 mm are
required for assembly clearance.
This is the minimum distance that the silencer
must be from a bulkhead or a tween-deck. We
recommend that a further 300-400 mm be
planned for as working space.
Make shure that the silencer can be removed ei-
ther downwards or upwards or laterally and set
aside, to make the turbocharger accessible for
further servicing. Pipes must not be laid in these
free spaces.

Fan shafts
The engine combustion air is to be supplied to-
wards the intake silencer in a duct ending at a
point 1.5 m away from the silencer inlet. lf this
duct impedes the maintenance operations, for
instance the removal of the silencer, the end
section of the duct must be removable. Suitable
suspension lugs are to be provided on the deck
and duct.
Gallery
lf possible the ship deck should reach up to both
sides of the turbocharger (clearance 50 mmj to
obtain easy access for the maintenance person-
nel. Where deck levels are unfavourable, sus-
pended galleries are to be provided.
Charge-air cooler
For cleaning of the charge air cooler bundle, it
must be possible to lift it vertically out of the
cooler casing and lay it in a cleaning bath.
Exception 32/40: the cooler bundle of this en-
gine is drawn out at the end. Similarly, transport
onto land must be possible.
Table 9-5 Weights and dimensions of charge air cooler bundle
For lifting and transportation of the bundle, a lift-
ing rail is to be provided which runs in transverse
or longitudinal direction to the engine (according
to the available storage placej, over the cen-
treline of the charge air cooler, from which a trol-
ley with hoisting tackle can be suspended.
