2.1 Maintaining the documentation


This documentation belongs to the gearbox.
Please maintain the documentation for the entire service life of the gearbox.
Please pass on the complete documentation to any later owner or user.

2.2 Preconditions of warranty

REINTJES will only accept warranty claims when:

• You install, operate, monitor and maintain the gearbox in accordance with our instructions.
• Only the types of oil listed in the lubricant table are used.
• You comply with the performance ratings and labelling stamped on the type plate.

No modifications may be made to the gearbox unless they have been approved by REINTJES.

REINTJES, as supplier of one of the components of the complete propulsion system, will not
assume responsibility for any problems with vibration resulting from the system as a whole.
REINTJES will not therefore assume any liability for complaints or damage resulting from this
type of vibration.

REINTJES strongly recommends that you have a torsional vibration calculation


performed for the entire system.

In any case, a whirling calculation must be done for any shaftlines connected to
the input or output shafts. We additionally recommend having an axial vibration
calculation done for propeller shaftlines. Torsional, axial and whirling can mutually
excite each another. In order to preclude this possibility, the results of the whirling
calculation, axial vibration calculation and torsional vibration calculation should be
compared with each other in order to rule out that any of the vibration types have the
same natural frequencies.

4.3 Preservation

4.3.1 General information


Initial preservation is done at REINTJES as specified in agreements by contract.

After a run on the test stand, the gearbox is preserved as specified in the order.

Spare parts or loose parts supplied with the shipment are treated using the preservation
procedures stipulated in the contract.

Preservation for dispatch is designed for a limited period of time and for certain storage
conditions.

The scope and effectiveness of these preservation procedures depend on:

• Conditions of storage
• Duration of storage
• Packaging
• Individual customer wishes

4.3.2 Initial preservation


During the factory bench test, the gearbox is run with a corrosion protection oil to preserve it.
In addition, following the bench test, the gearbox is filled with a VCI preservation oil (VCI = volatile
corrosion inhibitor).

Volatile corrosion inhibitors are agents that evaporate very slowly and deposit themselves on
the unpainted metal surfaces within the closed gearbox. Due to their polarity, they interrupt
electrochemical reactions resulting in corrosion.

In order to ensure that these volatile corrosion inhibitors retain their effectiveness for as long
as possible, all of the gearbox openings are closed. The shafts are sealed using an acid-free
grease.

Externally exposed, unpainted metal parts are protected using a wax-like preservation
substance. When stipulated in the order, the gearbox is additionally protected against
corrosion by means of moisture-proof packaging or special marine packaging.

4.3.3 Measures against corrosion during storage

General information
The following assumes that the storage conditions described in chapter 4.2 are followed.
Here we can merely describe general measures against corrosion.

If you are not certain whether protection is adequate for your particular case of application,
please consult with REINTJES about the necessary measures.

Transport, Storage and Preservation

As a result of damage to packaging, water and harmful environmental influences can have a
direct effect on the gearbox. Excessive moisture can penetrate the inner space of the gearbox
as a result of variations in temperature.

⇒ Immediately upon receipt of the gearbox, check the packaging for any transport damage.

⇒ Regularly check the outside packaging.

Table 3: Inspection intervals for corrosion protection of the gearbox

Inspection intervals:
European climate zone every 4 weeks
Tropical climate zone every 2 weeks

⇒ Inform REINTJES customer service immediately of any corrosion damage discovered


during inspection.

Immediately perform the following measures in the event of damage to packaging:

⇒ Dry off any pools of water collecting on the gearbox as a result of rain or condensation.
⇒ Check the drying agent provided with the shipment.
Replace the drying agent if its colour changes from white to blue.

⇒ Check preservation at shaft ends.


Repair the seal, if necessary, using acid-free grease.

⇒ Repair the damaged packaging.

-or better-
⇒ Replace the damaged film along with the drying agent.
Use only film of the same quality.

Transport, Storage and Preservation

Measures after removing the packaging:

⇒ Protect the gearbox as well as possible against water and harmful environmental effects.
For instance, when covering the gearbox with tarpaulins, leave some space between them
and the gearbox. They should not act as a vapour seal!

⇒ Regularly inspect the gearbox for external corrosion damage.


During inspection, check to ensure that shaft ends are preserved and sealed.
Repair the seal using acid-free grease. (Refer to table 3 on page 23 for inspection intervals)

⇒ Regularly refill the gearbox with Branorol preservation oil.


After removing the packaging, initial refilling should be done after half of storage duration,
as stipulated in the contract, has passed.
Initial refilling should, however, be done no later than 12 weeks (European climate zone)
or 8 weeks (tropical climate zone) afterwards.

Table 4: Intervals for refilling VCI preservation oil


Intervals for refilling VCI preservation oil: Volume of preservation oil to be filled:
European climate zone every 12 weeks 1% of the operating oil volume, at least 1 litre
Tropical climate zone every 8 weeks 1% of the operating oil volume, at least 1 litre

You will find the operating oil volume on the type plate.

⇒ Please observe section "Opening the gearbox" on page 25 in this regard!

For unpacked gearboxes, apply the measures mentioned above even if the stipulated storage
duration has expired.

Opening the gearbox


The agents of the VC preservation oil escape when the gearbox is opened.

Measures after opening the gearbox

⇒ Refill the gearbox with Branorol preservation oil. (Refer to table 4 on page 24 for volume)

⇒ IMPORTANT: Afterwards, close the gearbox air-tight.

A protective inhibitor atmosphere may not be able to form again after reclosing.
This depends on:

• The concentration of VCI agents


• The amount of moisture that has entered
• How well the gearbox is resealed afterwards

4.3.4 Measures against corrosion after putting the gearbox into operation

Long interruptions in operation


If the operation of the vessel or gearbox is to be interrupted for several weeks, measures are
required to protect the gearbox against corrosion.

Corrosion damage to the gearbox cannot be ruled if these measures are not followed. The type
and scope of measure that need to be performed depend on the options available at the
particular location. Variants A, B and C, described in the following, are equally as important.

Table 5:
Measures to protect against corrosion are required
after an interruption in operation of longer than
European climate zone: 4 weeks
Tropical climate zone: 2 weeks

Perform one of these protective measures once the period mentioned above has passed:

Variant A : Flush with operating oil

⇒ Flush the gearbox for 15 minutes using the mechanical gearbox oil pump by starting the
engine.

-or-
⇒ using the electrical stand-by pump, if available.

⇒ Replace the venting filter using the screw plug

⇒ Repeat flushing weekly

Description

Oil manometer and supervision

An oil pressure manometer is mounted on the gearbox for


monitoring oil pressure. This manometer indicates the operating
pressure.
Operating pressure is set differently depending on the gearbox
type.
Operating pressure is checked with the engine running at nominal
speed, the gearbox at operating temperature and the clutch
engaged.
With the engine running at nominal speed and the clutch
engaged, operating pressure must be within the range indicated
by the markers on the manometer.

The supervision system continuously measures current values


of operating characteristics such as temperature, pressure,
speed (optionnally) and oil level (optionnally). If any parameter
defined in the supervision plan is exceeded (e.g. temperature) or
not attained (e.g. pressure) an alarm is given in the form of
an electrical signal.

Electrical stand-by pump

The oil pump with electrical motor is designed to be used as a


stand-by pump in the event that the mechanical gear pump fails.

Danger of electric shock!


Do not disconnect or service this device until
power supply has been disconnected!

Fig. 1: Variables for determining the reaction forces of the flexible coupling

⇒ Determine the radial reaction force of the coupling FR:


FR = ∆r x Cr dyn

∆r - radial shaft misalignment;


Cr dyn - radial stiffness of the flexible coupling

⇒ Determine the corresponding bending moment MB:


MB=0.5 x Cax x D x X1 (refer to figure 1)

Cax - axial stiffness of the flexible coupling;


D - diameter of the connection between the flange and the flexible coupling
X1 - measured angular misalignment (GAP)

⇒ Check to make sure that FR and MB do not exceed the permissible load as shown in fig. 2.

⇒ Example for gearbox type WAF 863: FR = 2 kN; MB = 0.3 kNm (refer to reading
example in fig. 2)
Read off the maximum permissible reaction force.
FR perm = 2.70 (at MB=0) > FR
(intersection of "line 8xx" with horizontal line of fig. 2 (axis of radial force))
Determine the maximum permissible bending moment for FR = 2 kN
MB perm =0.4 > MB actual.
(intersection FR = 2.00 with "Linie 8xx" -> read off the corresponding MB value
from the vertical line (axis of bending moment) in fig. 2)

2.3.2 Filling the Oil filter


During the setup the Oil filter must be filled with oil.

A non-filled filter housing creates a pressure loss in the hydraulic system when
! changing on the other filter side.
This pressure loss can lead that the diesel engine is shut down by the pressure
switch "oil pressure to low, motor stop".

After switching on, with running gearbox:

⇒ Wait approx. 30 sec until the first filter side is fille with oil.
⇒ Switch to the second filter side with the lever. Leave this side also switched
on approx. 30 sec. until the complete filter is filled with oil.

These steps must be repeated after every filter change!!

The filter bell can also be manual filled with oil during the filter change.

3 Operation

3.1 Engaging procedures for standard gearboxes

During normal operation and at idling speed, you must adhere to these values:
! • 40-60°C oil temperature for types WAF/LAF 665 measured behind the oil cooler
• 30-50°C oil temperature for types WAF/LAF 7xx - 19xx measured behind the oil
cooler
• 21-25 bar operating pressure
A fault exists in the event that any of the values differ appreciably from those
cited above.

The engaging procedures described below are important in order to safely operate the
entire propulsion system and to avoid any unnecessary wear.

Electronic ship remote controls may be used to automate the procedures described.
This avoids the risk of faulty operation.
It is then possible to optimise the electronic program system during the sea trial.

You must adhere to these steps in engaging when using a manual remote control:

Engaging the gearbox

The engine is started, the gearbox control valve is in the NEUTRAL position and the
propeller shaft is stationary or rotating slowly. The engine is running at idling speed.

⇒ Set the engine to engaging speed.


⇒ Engage the gearbox for the desired direction of travel.
⇒ Wait until the pressure in the clutch has reached 18 bar (approx. 4 seconds)
⇒ Set the engine to the required operating speed.

Operation Manual 23
B - BV2147 - Version 3.0.0 / 08.02.2010
WAF/LAF 665 - 1963
Operation

Reversing at slow speeds (type WAF only)

The ship is travelling at up to 50 % of its nominal speed.

⇒ Reduce the engine speed to engaging speed.


⇒ Shift the gearbox to the NEUTRAL position.
⇒ Wait approx. 1 second
⇒ Engage the gearbox for the other direction of travel.
⇒ Wait until the pressure in the clutch has reached 18 bar (approx. 4 seconds)
⇒ Set the engine to the required operating speed.

Reversing at higher speeds

The ship is travelling within the range of 50-100% of its nominal speed.

⇒ Reduce the engine speed to engaging speed.


⇒ Wait until the speed of the ship has dropped to 50 %.
⇒ Shift the gearbox to the NEUTRAL position.
⇒ Wait approx. 1 second
⇒ Engage the gearbox for the other direction of travel.

⇒ Wait until the pressure in the clutch has reached 18 bar (approx. 4 seconds)

⇒ Set the engine to the required operating speed.

Brake the gearbox/propeller shaft using the shaft brake


⇒ Shift the control to the NEUTRAL position. The brake will be automatically engaged
by the V189 valve.

⇒ Shift the control from the NEUTRAL position into the AHEAD or ASTERN position;
the shaft brake is automatically disengaged.

If the control lever is in the NEUTRAL position, the propeller shaft will be braked
until it comes to a halt.

24 Operation Manual
B - BV2147 - Version 3.0.0 / 08.02.2010
WAF/LAF 665 - 1963
Operation

Stop manoeuvre with repeated engaging

The clutch has been designed and optimised to allow it to be engaged from AHEAD
to ASTERN several times during a stop manoeuvre. Experience reveals that this may
become necessary for stop manoeuvres from high speeds in order to prevent any damage
to the diesel engine.

During a stop manoeuvre the ship's control automatically interrupts engaging procedures
in order to prevent excessive strain on the engine.

⇒ For this case, you should provide, in the ship's control, for a period of delay for engaging
the clutch and reversing the direction. (Not supplied with the gearbox)
⇒ Please contact REINTJES for more detailed information.

Crash-stop

The object is to stop the ship from a high speed within the shortest possible distance.

CAUTION!
! During a crash-stop manoeuvre the propulsion system is subject to heavier
wear and greater strain due to heat build-up.

Perform a crash-stop manoeuvre in emergency cases only!

⇒ Proceed as described under “Reversing at higher speeds”

3.2 Special operating modes

3.2.1 Trailing operation, engine at STOP with propeller free to turn

CAUTION!
! In the case of damage, lock the propeller shaft before putting it into trailing mode.

If this is not possible, carefully verify whether trailing mode with the shaft turning
freely might not result in further damage to the gearbox or the propulsion system.

Occasional trailing mode

Occasional trailing mode, i.e. in the case of a one-engine system, means:

• Due to damage, the ship can no longer be propelled on its own power
• The propulsion system is shut down
• The ship is tugged with external aid
• The propeller shaft turns freely with the water flowing against it

With a standard gearbox, this mode may be prolonged without limitation for up to 6 hours.
If the occasional trailing mode lasts longer than 6 hours:

⇒ Start the engine every 6 hours in order to run the gearbox oil pump.
-Or -

⇒ Lubricate the gearbox every 6 hours with the aid of the electrical stand-by pump.
⇒ In order to ensure that all lubrication points are supplied with oil, run the engine
or the stand-by pump for approx. 5 minutes.
⇒ Immobilise the propeller shaft if gearbox lubrication is not possible.

Regular trailing mode

Regular trailing mode, i.e. in the case of a two-engine system, means:

• One of the propulsion systems is shut down


• The ship continues to be driven by the other propulsion system
• The propeller shaft of the system that is shut down turns freely with the water
flowing against it

26 Operation Manual
B - BV2147 - Version 3.0.0 / 08.02.2010
WAF/LAF 665 - 1963
Operation

Regular trailing mode without limitation is only possible:

• With the addition of a trailing pump


An additional pump mounted on the gearbox secures the lubrication to the gearbox
during trailing mode. This pump is driven directly by the propeller shaft.
• With an electrical stand-by pump
⇒ Switch on the electrical stand-by pump for the entire duration of trailing mode.

3.2.2 ADS - trolling propulsion mode

The execution of the trolling propulsion control (ADS) is adapted to the parameters of ‚
your propulsion system. In the following it is therefore only possible to provide general
information and descriptions of trolling propulsion mode.

You will find a detailed description of the execution of your trolling propulsion system
under “Trolling propulsion mode (ADS)” in the appendix to the operating instructions.

Unsupervised operation of the trolling propulsion device is prohibited!


! If a cable breaks or the electronic control unit breaks down, the gearbox automatically
switches to normal operating mode, i.e. the prevailing torque and corresponding
engine speed are transmitted.

CAUTION!
! Risk of excessive strain to the clutch!

Trolling propulsion mode is not permissible in these cases:

• Travelling through ice


• Towing operation
• Fishing with trawling nets

Trolling propulsion mode with multi-engine systems

• With multi-engine systems, do not switch to trolling propulsion mode as long as


one or more gearboxes are running in normal operating mode.

• Do not switch any gearbox of a multi-engine system to normal mode as long as one
or more gearboxes are being run in trolling propulsion mode.

• No combination of operating modes is permissible, e.g. one gearbox in trolling


propulsion mode and one gearbox in normal mode.

Operation

3.2.3 Switching trolling propulsion mode ON and OFF

Switch trolling propulsion mode on only when the engine speed is within the
! permissible range

CAUTION!
! Risk of irreparable clutch damage!

Under no circumstances should you run the system in trolling propulsion mode
with a soiled filter element by using “Bypass” to circumvent filtering.

⇒ Switch over filters immediately when the “contaminated filter” warning appears.

⇒ Replace the soiled filter element immediately.

Note in particular the following:


! For trolling propulsion mode, use only oil types listed in our BV2060/1 lubricant
table (oil types for trolling propulsion mode).

You must adhere to the oil change intervals specified in the maintenance plan.
The specified oil change intervals apply when trolling propulsion mode makes up
a maximum of 10 % of operating time. If this 10 % amounts to more than 200 hours,
a limit of 200 hours applies. You must consult the factory if the proportion of trolling
propulsion mode is higher.

In contrast to the information in the operating instructions, if the engine has been
operated in trolling propulsion mode, oil change intervals may not be extended
following an oil analysis.

Gearboxes with an electrical trolling propulsion device are equipped with a


20 µ / 25 µ filter. Ensure that you have replacement filter elements on board.
These fine filter elements cannot be cleaned.

4.3 Additional work for gearboxes equipped for trolling propulsion mode

Additional maintenance for gearboxes equipped for trolling propulsion mode


Oil change

⇒ Make sure to adhere precisely to the intervals for changing operating oil specified
in the maintenance plan for trolling propulsion mode.
The specified oil change intervals apply when trolling propulsion mode makes up a
maximum of 10 % of operating time.
If this 10 % amounts to more than 200 hours, a limit of 200 hours applies.
If you operate the unit in trolling propulsion mode more of the time, consult with
REINTJES to determine the necessary measures.
It is not permissible to extend oil change intervals even if an oil analysis reveals
positive results.
⇒ Immediately replace any contaminated filter elements.
Gearboxes with electrical trolling propulsion devices are equipped with a finer filter.
Ensure that you have replacement fine filter elements on board.
These fine filter elements cannot be cleaned.
⇒ If you notice an increase in engagement time,
check the sinter filter element in the pressure
Sinter filter
build-up valve.
Exchange the sinter filter once it has become
clogged.

4.4.2 Sight check of the tube bundle


The amount of dirt deposited on the tube bundle depends on conditions of installation
and operation.

⇒ Perform the first sight check 3 months after putting the gearbox into operation.
You can determine future intervals based on the results of the first inspections.

The bolts holding the cooling water coupling flange and the covers of the heat
! exchanger must always be loosened and tightened in opposite pairs.

Sight check by removing the covers

The hydraulic oil in the heat exchanger does not need to be drained when performing this
simple sight check.

⇒ Close the valves for the water intake and water outlet
⇒ Drain the cooling water.
⇒ Unscrew the cooling water connectors.
⇒ Check whether the connector gaskets are still in good order.
⇒ Mark the position of intake
cover A with 1/1 and the posi-
tion of reverse cover B with 2/2.
⇒ Loosen the bolts of the covers
in opposite pairs and remove
the bolts.

Intake cover A Reverse cover B


⇒ Remove covers A and B.
A nylon separator is inserted at the centre of intake
cover A.

4.7 Screw Locking

⇒ For assembly use screws with screw-locking glue only.

The glue is applied either as a coating by the screw manufacturer,


or you must use a usual medium-strength screw glue.

After dismantling and before re-assembling these screws, free nuts


and shaft nuts from glue remains. The threaded holes have to be
cleaned as well.

Free threaded holes from glue remains by using a corresponding tap

Pay attention to the charts for tightening torques.


! Screws are only sufficiently secured by using glue if they are tightened with the
proper torque (assembly torque). (See ”Conversion factors and screw tightening
torque values” on page 77.)

2 threads without glue

3 treads with glue

Use always screw-locking, medium-strength metal glue for locking:

• fixing screws for heat exchanger, filter, pump etc.

CAUTION!
Possible destruction risk!
Valid for screws and bolts with mechanical stress.
⇒ All screws and bolts connecting parts with torque transmission
must not be re-used after disassembly.
