For adjustment of the

boost pressure and start fuel limit
device of the

Hydraulic Governor Type 1115L-4G and 1115R-4G

WARNING
Adjustment of the boost pressure and / or start fuel limit device

! of the 1115-4G governor is to be done by qualified personnel

only!

Failing to do so may result in serious injury and / or damage!

In order to reduce the emission

of smoke when the engine is
started or if a step load is applied
to the engine, a fuel limiting de-
vice may be fitted on the the
1115 – 4 G governors.
The governor type 1115R - 4G is
equipped with a boost pressure
fuel limit device.

The governor type 1115L-4G is

equipped with a electrical oper-
ated start fuel limit device.

This leaflet shows how these

limiters may be adjusted.

 In order to make this adjustment
the top cover of the governor must
be removed.

Depending of the build, the gover-

nor will look similar to figure 2. This
is the 1115R governor, equipped
with a boost pressure fuel limiter,
with override.

The fuel limit function may be over-

ridden by energising the solenoid
valve. In that instance an external
6 bar air pressure is applied to the
fuel limit servo, having the affect of
full boost pressure and therefore no
limitation.

Figure 3 shows the 1115L gover-

nor.
This governor is equipped with an
electrical operated start fuel limit
device.
Operation of the start fuel limit sole-
noid is done external from the gov-
ernor.

 In the 1115R governor the boost pres-
sure signal from the receiver, which is
connected to the governor, is converted
by means of a servo into a proportional
position of the servo output lever see
figure 4 .

The travel of this lever is determent by

the strength of a spring in the servo and
the range of the applied boost pressure
and cannot be adjusted.

However the corresponding position to

which the output shaft of the governor is
limited at a given boost pressure can be
set and adjusted. More Pressure

Below is a typical curve for the boost Pressure Fuel Limit.

Please note that the boost pressure range is dependant on the type of
turbo charger.

The governor output

position is indicated by
the output scale and
pointer.
Normal setting:
Position 2 is no-load.
Position 8 is full-load.

 BOOST PRESSURE OPERATED FUEL LIMIT

Fig. 6

Figure 6 shows the 3 adjustments facilities to obtain the correct fuel limit curve.

1. The gain is set by means of the position of “A” in the slotted hole.
2. The set point adjustment is done by the length of ”B”.
3. The maximum fuel when starting, i.e. the maximum governor output position
available if no boost pressure is available may be adjusted with the position of
cap screw “C”.

 Set Point

Fig. 7

To offset the limit curve; the length of the setpoint connection must be changed .
If the length is made shorter, at a given boost pressure a higher governor output
position (more fuel) will be allowed. If made longer the device will limit at a
lesser output position.

If it is found that the fuel limit curve is set to close, i.e. it does not
allow the engine to accelerate, the preferred adjustment is to off-
! set the curve.
Reduce the length of this connecting rod by loosening both nuts
(RH and LH thread!) and turn the rod to adjust the length. Do not
adjust more than 2 turns without testing the result!

 More Gain

Less Gain

Fig. 8

The gain of the fuel limit curve versus the given boost pressure range can be
set with the “length” of the servo output lever.
To check the position of the fuel limit function, after each adjustment the boost
pressure must be increased to the maximum value. Also, because the gain ad-
justment affects the setpoint, the position of the limit curve at minimum boost
pressure is to be checked again!
Because of this it is recommended to adjust the gain setting only if the governor
is on a governor testrig.

 Max. Fuel when starting

Fig. 9

The maximum output position to which the governor may open if the engine is
started and no boost pressure is present yet, can be set with the position of cap-
screw “C”. If the capscrew is turned down the governor will move to a higher
position.

In the event that the servo is defected f.i. if the diaphragm

! is damadged, the fuel limit function may be disabled by
screwing cap screw “C” down until the servo output lever
is in it’s lowest position.

 ELECTICAL OPERATED START FUEL LIMIT

Fig. 7

The electrical operated Start Fuel Limit will limit the position
of the output shaft of the governor when starting the engine.
If the solenoid is energised oil will flow under the piston in B
housing “B”. The piston will move up until it is stopped by C
stop “C”. This is the position of the piston for Start Fuel Lim-
iting. Positioned in the piston is rod “A” which operates the
limit device.
The position to which the output shaft is set by means of the
length of rod “A”. To adjust loosen nut “D” and turn rod “A”.

If rod “A” is made shorter the output shaft of the governor

will be limited at a higher position, more fuel.
!
If rod “A” is made longer the output shaft of the governor will
be limited at a lower position, less fuel.
