Crankcase Ruston RK270

Introduction

The crankcase is machined from an SG iron casting and features an integral airchest with transverse diaphragms
stiffening the main structure.

The crankcase carries the cylinder liners which are water sealed at the top by a soft iron joint and at the bottom by
rubber 'O' rings, spaces in the casting provide water circulation around each cylinder liner.

The inspection covers on both sides of the crankcase, provide access to the main bearings, connecting rod, large
end bearings, camshaft, camshaft bearings and water spaces. Selected covers on the side of the engine carry the
explosion relief valves.

The crankcase is secured to the bedplate by studs, bolts and nuts.

Introduction

Two piece pistons are fitted, each consisting of an


aluminium-alloy body and an alloy steel crown, equipped
with an 'O' ring seal and held together by four bolts.

The pistons (Fig.1) are oil cooled, the oil is fed from the
connecting rod, through the small-end bush and through
drillings into the annular space between the gudgeon pin
and the sleeve located in the gudgeon pin bore. Oil then
flows through drillings in the pin and up vertical drillings
in the piston cooling gallery. The oil is then discharged
through drillings in the underside of the piston. Fig.1 Piston

Three chromium plated compression rings are fitted to


the piston crown. There is a top ring (Fig.2A) with two
taper-faced rings (Fig.2B) below. The oil control or
scraper ring (Fig.2C) , fitted to the piston body, is A
chromium plated on its wiping surfaces, slotted and
houses a latch pin and spring.

A liberal application of paraffin will help to free any rings


which are sticking in their grooves. Thin metal plates can
be used to hold the ring out of its groove so that it can be
slid off the piston. The plates should be spaced equally
around the piston, to ensure that the springing out of the
the rings is not confined to a small section.

4. If the piston rings are to be reused they should


be labelled to indicate the correct groove and
piston from which they were removed.

Special maintenance considerations

If the piston rings are to be reused, they should be


thoroughly cleaned, first by a degreasing process and
then by smearing with soft soap which must be washed
off in a solution of very hot water and soda. If a proper
degreasing plant is not available, use paraffin or diesel
B
oil as a primary cleaner. Piston rings should be checked
in an unworn part of a cylinder liner and gaps measured
Fig.8 Ensure the piston is lined up correctly by
and compared with the figures given in DATA. Ring
lining up the registration marks (A) & (B).
widths should also be checked and compared with
groove width.

Pistons should be decarbonised using a strip of


aluminium or hardwood wedge as a scraper to remove
carbon from the crown, finishing with fine emery cloth
moistened with paraffin. Ensure that each piston is
thoroughly cleaned to remove all abrasive particles and
to clear oil galleries and holes.

CAUTION:- Do not soak in a caustic decarbonising


solution as this will damage the aluminium body.

Introduction

The bedplate is a one-piece S. G. Iron casting with


integral diaphragms which support the main bearings.
Each diaphragm is at a main bearing station and the
main bearing caps are located by registers formed on
the bedplate diaphragms, to which they are secured by
studbolts and nuts.

One wide bearing is fitted at the main bearing station


nearest the flywheel - which also acts as the thrust
bearing. A second wide bearing is fitted towards the
centre of the crankcase on vee-form engines. All the
remaining bearings, including an outrigger outboard of
the thrust bearing, are narrow bearings.

Introduction

(Fig.1) The press-formed alloy steel crankshaft


incorporates bolted on balance weights. Oil under
pressure is delivered to the crankshaft main bearing
through oilways in the engine bedplate. Cross drillings
between journals and pins provide oil for lubrication of
the connecting rod large end and small end and for
piston cooling. Fig.1 Crankshaft.

The flywheel coupling flange (Fig.2) is drilled to accept


coupling bolts and one drilling is offset to ensure correct
location of the flywheel. An oil thrower and a split gear
is fitted to the flywheel end of the shaft to drive the
camshaft gear train. This gear is secured on each side
by a pair of split straps.

Maintenance

NOTE:- If a leak develops, it may be that the


labyrinth requires cleaning, or the crankcase
breather fan is operating incorrectly. Fig.2 Flywheel coupling flange.

If the condition of any main bearing is suspect or if the


driven machine has been removed and refitted, the

Crankshaft Alignment

The alignment of the crankshaft in the main bearings is


of utmost importance because misalignment - which can
be caused by uneven rates of wear, settlement of engine
foundations, misalignment of the driven machine etc. -
affects the main bearings and, by causing deflections of
the crankshaft, sets up undue stresses in the shaft.

When the engine is assembled at the works, the total


permissible variation between readings for any crankpin Fig. 1 Ensure the holding down nuts are tight.
except the flywheel-end crankpin when a flywheel is
fitted, or the damper-end crankpin when a damper is
fitted is 0.05 mm. The total permissible variation
between readings for the flywheel-end crankpin when a
flywheel is fitted, or the damper-end crankpin when a
damper is fitted is 0.09 mm.

Whenever the engine is rebuilt, with new bearings and a


reconditioned crankshaft, the deflections should be
within the figures quoted. The alignment of the flywheel
end of the crankshaft is influenced by the position of the
driven machine; therefore, if the driven machine has
been disturbed, either for a bearing change or for
complete replacement, the alignment of the crankthrow
adjacent to the flywheel must be checked and the Fig. 2 Deflection indicator
position of the driven machine bearing adjusted to give
deflections within the specified limits. If the limits are still
exceeded, check the crankshaft for wear, ovality and
distortion then check the bedplate for truth of the main
bearing housing by means of a wire or mandrel.

A
Procedure

1. Check the engine and driven-unit foundation


bolts for security, and ensure that the holding-
down nuts are tight (Fig.1).

2. Remove the crankcase inspection door. Fig. 3 Centre pop location (A) between the webs.

3. Bar the engine round until the crankpin to be


checked is as near to B.D.C. as possible, whilst
allowing fitting of the deflection indicator (Fig.2)
From this point the engine can be turned
through approximately 310 deg. with the
deflection indicator in position.

4. Fit the deflection indicator in the centre-pop


locations between the crankshaft webs
(Fig.3(A)). Rotate the indicator two or three
times, to ensure correct register of the pointed

and 310 deg. from the starting point.
Deflections indicated should be within the
acceptable tolerances described earlier.

7. Repeat operations 3 to 6 inclusive for the


remaining crankpins and compare the readings
to ascertain if any 'hogging' or 'sagging' exists.

Corrective procedure
Fig.5 Sagging
When the deflection indicated at the drive-end crankpin
is outside the specified tolerance, the driven machine or
pedestal bearing (if fitted), must be re-aligned to bring
the deflection within tolerance.
Deflections outside tolerance at any other crankpin must
be fully investigated and rectified.

Hogging and sagging

If the indicator is correctly set when the crankpin is at


Fig.6 Hogging
T.D.C., a negative reading with the crankpin at B.D.C.
will indicate that the webs have closed slightly, i.e., that
the crankshaft is sagging at that particular throw (Fig.5).

Conversely, a positive reading at B.D.C. will show that


the webs have opened, i.e., that the crankshaft is
hogging (Fig.6). If the misalignment is wholly in the
vertical plane, the readings at the front and back will be
half the B.D.C. reading.

Driven machine

If the misalignment is confined to the crank throws


adjacent to the flywheel, the position of the driven
machine should be adjusted to suit by means of shims,
especially underneath the pedestal bearing if one is
fitted.

Crankshaft regrinding Ruston RK270

Introduction

The following regrinding procedures must be followed when crankpins and/or main journals have suffered
damage, and where limits of ovality have been reached or exceeded after long periods of operation.

Procedure

There is sufficient room around the crankshaft to enable grinding to be carried out in situ, but in some cases, it
may be an advantage to remove the crankshaft from the engine.

1. Pre-grinding may be necessary to clean up the journal or crankpin surface, remove the minimum amount
of metal to clean up the surface.

2. Any pin or journal involved in a bearing failure should have its surface etched with 5% Nital (5% nitric
acid in alchol or methylated spirits). This will reveal any areas which have been affected by
excessive heating during the bearing failure.

NOTE:- Any re-grinding carried out must be of sufficient depth to remove all heat affected areas.

3. Subject the pin or journal to a magnetic particle inspection to locate any cracks or defects. Apply a thin
film of white background lacquer (i) to the bearing surface prior to inspection. The test should be carried
out using black ink (ii).

The inspection test may be carried out in situ using portable equipment i.e., hand held electro-magnetic yoke (iii).
Where this is used ensure sufficient overlap between tests to cover the entire pin and journal surfaces.

The test must also be carried out in two mutually perpendicular directions so that both longitudinal and
transverse defects are revealed.

5. If the crankshaft has been removed from the engine, magnetic particle inspections using current flow and
flux flow techniques are preferred.

NOTE:- Whenever possible the crankshaft MUST be demagnetised after test.

6. All cracks must be ground out using a pencil grinder, or file, prior to the main re-grinding operation. This
prevents extensions of cracks during pin grinding and also gives an indication of the overall depth of
grinding required, and thus the feasibility of re-grinding.

7. After pencil grinding or filing, the crankpin or journal should be subjected to a re-examination using white
background lacquer and black magnetic ink. Ensure that any dimple formed by local grinding does not fill
with magnetic ink masking any defect indication. Rotate the crankshaft to a position which will allow the
ink to drain from the dimple.

8. After removing cracks by local grinding, the crankpin or journal should be re-ground as normal.

9. Prior to final grinding and polishing, the crankpin or journal surface must be etched using a 5% nital to
ensure complete removal of heat affected areas.

Any areas remaining at this stage must be subjected to a hardness test, using portable equipment. The hardness
levels in these areas must not be more than 100HB, or 100HV points higher than the specified maximum for the
crankshaft material, see DATA, and in any case not more than 450HB (475HV, 48HRc).

M7C05001.DOC Page 2 of 3 Section C05


Crankshaft regrinding Ruston RK270

10. After final grinding and polishing, subject the crankshaft to a magnetic particle inspection to ensure
complete removal of cracking.

NOTE:- It is important that white background lacquer and black magnetic ink is used at this stage.

All traces of background lacquer and magnetic ink must be removed from the crankshaft (iv) before it is
returned to service.

11. The alignment of the crankshaft must be checked before it is returned to service.

Re-grinding allowances

Crankshafts may have all crankpins and main journals reduced by a maximum of 1% of the original diameter, see
DATA.

In addition, any one crankpin or main journal may be reduced by 3.2mm provided all other crankpins and main
journals remain at or within the 1% limit.

3. Assemble the bearings and caps to the


bedplate, fit the nuts and washers, to the
studbolts and tighten to the specified stretch
figure as detailed later in the instruction.

4. Measure the bearing bores (bearing housing


with the bearings fitted), using an inside
micrometer. Use an outside micrometer to
measure each crankshaft journal diameter and,
from the dimensions obtained, establish the
running clearance of each bearing. If variations
in shell thickness have occurred due to unequal
rates of wear between individual bearings, fit
new bearings throughout.

the bearing clearances must not be reduced by
filing the butt-faces of the bearings shells. An
allowance on the peripheral length of the
bearing shells, and tightening of the bearing
cap fixings to the correct stretch figure ensures
the necessary “Nip” and the correct running
clearances of 0.204 to 0.343 mm.

Flywheel Ruston RK270

Introduction

The flywheel is mounted on the drive end of the


crankshaft and carries a gear ring for starting and
provides a coupling point for the driven
Machinery (Fig.1).

Markings on the outer face of the flywheel indicate ‘Top


dead centre’ of all cylinders and 10 degree intervals
based on top dead centre of number one front cylinder.
To ensure the flywheel is fitted in the correct angular
position to the crankshaft one coupling bolt hole is offset.
Fig.1 Flywheel, gear ring and coupling.
The flywheels are factory fitted with a one piece gear
ring, split gear rings will be supplied as replacement
items.

For information on flexible couplings reference should be


made to the manufacturers literature.

Maintenance

There are no specific maintenance periods, but the


condition of the gear ring and the flexible coupling
should be checked at intervals for signs of damage or
wear.

to the flexible coupling (Fig.2).

2. Slide the drive coupling away from the flexible


coupling.

NOTE:- If this is not possible it may be necessary to


move the driven machinery on its mountings to
provide room for removing the flexible coupling.

3. Remove the bolts retaining the flexible coupling


and remove the coupling.

4. Remove the bolts retaining the flywheel and


remove the flywheel, taking care not to lose the
dowels.

5. If required the starter ring can now be removed


from the flywheel as described later.

Flywheel Ruston RK270

Alignment

Although the flexible coupling is designed to operate


under conditions of misalignment its life, and that of
adjacent machinery, will be improved if initial alignment
is as accurate as possible.

The following information is given as a guide. The


coupling manufacturers information should however be
consulted first.

1. Measure and record the total thrust clearance


of the crankshaft and driven equipment shaft.

2. (Fig.3) Determine dimension ‘L’ as follows:-


Flywheel thickness ‘A’ plus coupling thickness
‘B’ plus half crankshaft thrust clearance plus
half driven machinery thrust clearance.

NOTE:-The flywheel thickness ‘A’ is stamped on the


flywheel adjacent to the engine number.

3. Align the engine and driven machinery on the Fig.3 Alignment diagram
same horizontal and vertical planes,
maintaining dimension ‘L’.

4. Fit two dial indicators (Fig.4)

5. Bar the engine round and note the reading of


each gauge with No.1 cylinder T.D.C. and then
at B.D.C. The dial gauge readings on both the
faces and circumference of the engine flywheel
are to be within 0.1mm of the total indicator
readings.

6. When the alignment is correct mark the driven


machinery mounting for later alignment. Fig.4 Fit two dial indicators

Flywheel refitting

Refitting is a reversal of the removal procedure taking


note of the following points.

1. Replace the gear ring as described later.

2. Tighten all bolts to the torques quoted in DATA.

3. Align driven machinery to the alignment marks.

4. If using the special extension ring spanner


(Fig.5) to tighten the coupling to gearbox bolts,
the torque applied to the nuts is greater than

Fig.5 Special extension ring spanner

that shown on the torque wrench dial. To


calculate the correct reading use the following
formula.

Dial reading = True torque x L


(L + E)

When using the extension spanner, keep the extension


in line with the axis of the wrench, to ensure that the
correct torque is applied.

400100EN.DOC PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

5. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Geislinger GD4 damper is a spring coupled torsional vibration damper with an internal hydraulic
damping system

Radial arranged leaf springs (1) transmit the elastic torque from the damper inner member to the
damper outer member. The torsional vibrations are damped concurrently by oil displacement from
one chamber (A,B) into the adjoining one.

The leaf springs (item 1) are clamped at their outer ends between the intermediate pieces (item 2)
due to a press fitted clamping ring (item 3). The inner ends of the spring packs (item 1) reach into
axial grooves of the inner star (item 12) such engaging the inner and outer member of the coupling.
The chambers A and B which are formed by the intermediate pieces (item 2) and the spring packs
(item 1) are filled with oil. If a torque twists the outer and inner member against each other the spring
packs will be deflected. This changes the volume of the oil chambers (A,B) and the oil will be
displaced from one chamber into the adjoining one through narrow gaps. The oil flow resistance
retards the relative movements of the two coupling members and dampens the vibration amplitudes.

Both plates (5,7) of the damper outer member and the sealings inserted therein hold the oil so that
the oil pressure which is to be used can build-up.

Barring gear Ruston RK270

Introduction

The engines are fitted with a manually operated barring


mechanism (Fig.1) to enable the engine to be turned
during maintenance or inspection procedures.

The equipment consists of a bracket and gear assembly


mounted on the crankcase together with an interlock
valve and mounting bracket. The interlock valve is fitted
to prevent operation of the starter motor when the
barring gear is engaged.
Fig.1 Barring gear as fitted to the RK270 engine

The gear assembly consists of a gear shaft and gear


arrangement mounted in a larger eccentrically bored
shaft and retained by two circlips.

The larger shaft is made eccentrically to permit


engagement and disengagement of the gear on the
inner shaft with the gear ring on the flywheel. A handle is
fitted to enable the gear position to be changed and a
spring loaded plunger locks the gear in either position.
The gear shaft is hexagonal on the gear end to enable a
ratchet handle to be used for turning the flywheel when
the gear is engaged.

Fig.2 Crankshaft locking tool


A crankshaft locking tool (Fig.2) is available to prevent
the engine from turning when the barring gear is
engaged and this should be fitted whenever work is
undertaken inside the crankcase.

NOTE:- With the locking tool fitted (Fig.3), the


barring gear cannot be disengaged and because of
the interlock valve arrangement, the starter motor
cannot be operated.

The barring gear can be converted to power operation


by connecting an air motor and socket in place of the
rachet handle. It is important that an impact wrench is
NOT used and that the motor used is fitted with a torque
reaction bracket.

Fig.3 Locking tool fitted to the barring gear.


Maintenance

The only maintenance necessary is regular inspection of


the pinion teeth for wear and damage and frequent
lubrication.

Inspection after initial running

When a cylinder head has been refitted, it is important


that it is correctly bedded; therefore, after the engine has
run for a few hours on full load, the cylinder head nuts
should be re-tightened.

In addition, the valve lever clearances should be


checked and all water, fuel and lubricating oil
connections should be inspected for leakage.

Valve refacing Ruston RK270

Introduction

Inlet and exhaust valves with worn or pitted seats and with deep indentation in the hardened end of the stem may
be refaced as detailed in the following paragraphs.

Refacing machine

The refacing machine recommended is Merlin Valvemaster, type VM1 or VM2 11/P461PL1900, fitted with the
appropriate wheel i.e., AA46/54-15-VF8.

Operation

Initial setting of refacing machine

Before commencing work, fit the valve in the workhead and check, by means of a dial gauge, that the valve stem
is concentric to within 0.013mm. Ensure that the workhead is set to the correct valve angle, as in VALVE GEAR
Data, and that the grinding wheel is dressed.

Refacing the valve

Set the valve in the workhead as detailed in the previous paragraph and proceed as follows :-

1. Back off the grinding head and traverse the workhead until the valve is in front of the grinding wheel.

2. Switch on both motors and open the coolant tap. Move the workhead to and fro across the front of the
grinding wheel and gradually bring in the grinding head, applying the cut a little at a time until the full
ground face is obtained. Allow the grinding wheel to “spark out” i.e., to grind itself entirely free, before
inspecting the face (frequent inspections should be made to ensure that only the minimum amount of
metal is removed whilst a full face is ground).

The diagram on the right shows the maximum wear limit


Original Profile
which must be taken into account when grinding a new face
on a valve.

Checking the face

1. Remove the valve from the machine then clean


the face and stem.

2. Smear a very light coat of marking blue on the correct


valve seating gauge on the valve, press it into contact 4.00mm
with the valve face then lift the gauge and examine the
face. The marking should be continuous and cover
the full width of the valve face.

Refacing the end of the valve stem

1. Set the workhead parallel to the grinding wheel spindle, fit the valve into the workhead with the stem end
close to the wheel and check that the valve stem is concentric to within 0.013mm.

m7d03000.doc Page 2 of 3 Section D03


Valve refacing Ruston RK270

2. Move the grinding head until the side of the wheel is level with the valve stem end.

3. Start both motors and ease the workhead close to the grinding wheel until the wheel begins to cut, then
ease the grinding head gently back and forth until the wheel “sparks out”.

4. Continue the grinding as in (3) until a good clean surface is obtained but with minimum removal of metal.

5. Remove the valve and check the hardness of the stem end. If the hardness is below 50 Rockwell C, the
valve may be reclaimed by removing 1.588mm. from the end which is then built up by depositing Stellite
Grade 12 on it, and finally refacing the stem end to give an overall valve length of 342.8/343.2mm.

Dressing the grinding wheel

The grinding wheel should be dressed when it has become ridged, loaded with metal particles, or unable to
provide a satisfactory surface finish, i.e., without traces of ridging or grinding marks.

The valve refacing machine is supplied complete with a diamond-tipped universal dressing tool which should be
used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. The frequency of wheel dressing will depend on the
grade of grinding wheel in use, the amount of roughing-out before wheel-dressing so that the wheel is then in its
best condition for making a good-quality finish cut.

Reassembly of valves

After refacing, the valves can be assembled into the cylinder heads without recourse to lapping or grinding-in by
hand. The small differential between the seat and face angles ensures rapid “bedding-in” of the seats by impact.

Introduction

Valve seat inserts which have become pitted, worn or distorted, should be reground by machine. The “Hall
Toledo” eccentric valve seat grinder, Model EDP, together with accessories listed under SPECIAL TOOLS
REQUIRED, is suitable for the purpose.

With this type of grinder only one point of the grinding wheel is in contact with the seat at any time.

Valve seat Grinding


The diagram on the right shows a view looking down at the wheel
grinder in the valve seat, the pilot in the valve guide and the
grinding wheel which is driven by the high-speed shaft on the
driving motor. This shaft revolves around the inner
eccentric shaft.
Inner
Eccentric
The pilot hole in the inner eccentric shaft is located off-centre shaft
and this off-centre location of the pilot hole produces the
eccentric action of the grinder. This inner or eccentric shaft is Pilot
driven at low speed causing the grinding wheel to travel
progressively around the seat approximately 15 times a minute. Outer shaft

To regrind the valve seats, the cylinder head, which must have been previously cleaned and all other work
completed, should be placed with the valve seats uppermost on a suitable stand.

Operation

Initial setting

Assemble the seat grinding machine on the grinding wheel dressing fixture and, after setting the tool holder angle
to the appropriate datum lines, see CYLINDER HEAD Data, adjust the feed screw of the valve seat grinding
machine to take a light cut.

Start the motor and dress the grinding wheel with a series of light cuts until its surface is trued, free from scores,
ridges or signs of ‘loading’ removing as little material as possible. If a new grinding wheel is being dressed its
grinding face must be slightly greater in width than that of the valve seating.

Grinding the seat

Lightly oil the pilot and screw on the split sleeve a little way, then insert the assembly into the valve guide. Use a
pilot wrench or tommy bar to turn the pilot, drawing the split sleeve upwards and expanding it against the bore of
the valve guide.

NOTE:- The tapered portion of the pilot is ground to fine limits to ensure that:-(a) The pilot is correctly
centred. (b) There is no side-play of the stone and sleeve assembly.

Mount the valve seat grinding machine on the pilot and adjust the feed screw until the grinding wheel is just clear
of the valve seat, start the motor and slowly feed the grinding wheel into contact with the valve seat. Taking very
light cuts, grind until the seating shows evidence of continuous grinding all the way round and for the full width.
Allow the machine to ‘spark out” or grind itself entirely free before inspecting or gauging the seat.

NOTE:- Make frequent inspections during the grinding process to ensure that the minimum amount of
metal is removed from the seat.

m7d04000.doc Page 2 of 3 Section D04


Valve seat refacing Ruston RK270

The amount of metal which can be removed from a seat


extends only as far as the corner of the original profile,
as shown, and this must be taken into account before
deciding upon whether or not a seat can be reground or
must be changed.

Checking the seat angle


Corner to be
Having obtained a continuous full width seat, remove regarded as limit
of wear
the grinder, to its dressing fixture, check the grinding
angle by means of the seat ‘bluing’ gauge as follows:-

Clean the seat and pilot stem free from grit, smear a very light coating of ‘marking blue’ on the gauge and mount it
on the pilot stem. Press the gauge firmly in contact with the valve seat, remove it and examine the marking
transferred to the seat; the marking should be continuous and should cover the full width of the seat.

If the ‘blue’ shows a narrow seat the grinding angle is incorrect and, after making suitable adjustments to the tool
holder of the dressing fixture, redress the grinding wheel to the corrected angle. A further light grinding, at the
new angle, should be made and the ‘blue’ marking test repeated until a full seat width marking is obtained.

NOTE:-To avoid removing an excessive amount of metal from one seat, it is advisable to spread the
setting process over a number of seats.

Once the setting of the grinding wheel dressing fixture has been established further valve seats may be ground as
detailed above under ‘Grinding the seat’, and the grinding wheel can be redressed without further adjustment.
However, to ensure that the seating has remained accurate, use the bluing gauge occasionally to check as
detailed earlier.

Redressing the wheel

The frequency of redressing of the grinding wheel will be dependent on the hardness of the seat and the amount
of roughing out to be done. The wheel should be redressed if the surface has become ridged or is ‘loaded’ with
metal or if a satisfactory surface is not being produced. The finish on the seat should be highly polished with no
trace of grinding marks or ridges. It is preferable to reface the wheel just before taking a finish cut, using it
afterwards to make a rough cut.

Introduction

The camshafts are driven from the flywheel end of the


crankshaft through a train of hardened and ground spur
gears.

Each camshaft consists of a number of identical, single-


cylinder length sections, joined by couplings which also
form part of the journal system.

Each camshaft section (Fig.1) has three cams per


cylinder which operate the inlet and exhaust valves Fig.1 Camshaft element
through tappets and push rods etc., and the fuel injection
pump direct from a tappet arrangement.

The camshafts are carried in white-metal lined bearing


bushes secured in the crankcase in bolt-on, one piece,
bearing housings (Fig.2). The governor drive wheel is
incorporated into the gear/hub arrangement.

The camshafts can be removed sideways (Fig.3) from


the crankcase and replaced by reversing the procedure
as detailed later.

Camshaft timing
A
Before setting camshaft timing establish that the flywheel
pointer has been set correctly to top dead centre as
follows :-

Remove No. B1 injector and bar the engine round to


approximately TDC. Fit a stepped bar through the
injector hole to rest on top of the piston (Fig.21 (A)).
Mount a dial indicator with the stylus resting on top of the
bar. Turn the flywheel to 10OBTDC and set the dial
indicator to zero then counting the number of revolutions
of the dial indicator turn the flywheel through TDC where
the dial will peak and then start to return to zero. Zero
will be at 10OATDC. If the pointer is not at 10OATDC
when the clock returns to zero, move the pointer half the
distance of the discrepancy (Fig.20 (B)). Repeat this
procedure until a true TDC is indicated by the timing
indicated by the timing pointer setting. B

Fig.21 Check that top dead centre (TDC) is correctly set.

Camshaft Ruston RK270

To time the camshaft, bar the crankshaft round in the


normal direction of rotation to the TDC position (on the
compression stroke) for B1 cylinder. The timing marks
on the camshaft gear should align with the camshaft
bearing housing (Fig.22). To compensate for small
inaccuracies and to give fine adjustment, the timing can L
be altered by adjusting the camshaft gear position in
relation to the camshaft.
Such adjustments will be necessary:-

a) After fitting new parts to the camshaft drive.

Fig.22 Align scribed mark (L)


b) If the timing is out from the figure quoted in
GENERAL DATA in the Maintenance and
repair manual.

1. Release the setscrews securing the camshaft


gear to the flange.

2. (Fig.22) Rotate the camshaft until the scribed


line on the gear is aligned parallel with the
bearing housing.

3. Refit and tighten all the setscrews to the torque Fig.23 Check for a lift of 5mm
quoted in DATA.

An accurate check of the camshaft timing can be made


by noting the position of the flywheel timing marks at fuel
injection point (fuel pump port closure) as follows :-

1. Turn the flywheel to enable a mark to be made


at 16deg. before tdc on the cylinder to be
checked.

2. Remove the fuel pump from the same cylinder.


Set a dial indicator at zero on the fuel tappet

plunger (Fig.23) with the cam on the base
circle. Fuel pump port closure occurs at 5mm
lift from the base circle of the cam (Fig.24). The
engine should be turned slowly in the direction
of normal rotation to eliminate gear train
backlash. When a lift of 5mm is indicated check
the position of the flywheel timing mark
previously made at 16O BTDC. This should now
be aligned with the timing pointer.

3. If the camshaft timing does not align with the


flywheel mark at 16O BTDC ensure the
camshaft is held in position and release the
capscrews securing the camshaft gear. Turn

the flywheel until the flywheel marking of 16
BTDC aligns with the pointer. Tighten the

Camshaft drive Ruston RK270

Introduction

The camshafts are driven from a split gear, secured to


the crankshaft by Vee-section half straps and this gear
drives an intermediate gear which transmits the drive
through a train of idler and pinion gears to a gear
attached to the end journal on each camshaft.

Maintenance

Fig.1 Rotate the engine to align the timing marks.


Check the running clearances and fit new parts when
any exceeds the maximum permissible figure quoted in
DATA.

D - Interval

Examine the camshaft drive gears for damage or


excessive wear. Renew any parts which are damaged
or excessively worn.

H - Interval

Remove and dismantle the camshaft, renew idler


spindles and compound gear shaft and all bushes – the Fig.2 Compound gear
gears together with the compound gear shaft bushes in
the crankcase.

Dismantling

Before removing the gears the engine should be rotated


to align the timing marks (Fig.1) as described in the
camshaft instruction. After alignment do not rotate the
engine.

Compound gears

Each camshaft gear is driven by a compound gear


assembly (Fig.2) which can be removed when its
associated camshaft has been removed, by proceeding
as follows :-
Fig.3 Remove the lub oil pipe
1. Support the assembly, using a sling fed through
the top aperture in the crankcase and fitted
around the gear shank.

2. Remove the lubricating oil pipe from the oil feed


block (Fig.3) and remove the bolts securing the
block to the crankcase.

3. Withdraw each compound gear shaft from the


crankcase. Lift out the compound gear but do
not attempt to separate the two parts.

400100EN.DOC PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

5. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Geislinger GD4 damper is a spring coupled torsional vibration damper with an internal hydraulic
damping system

Radial arranged leaf springs (1) transmit the elastic torque from the damper inner member to the
damper outer member. The torsional vibrations are damped concurrently by oil displacement from
one chamber (A,B) into the adjoining one.

The leaf springs (item 1) are clamped at their outer ends between the intermediate pieces (item 2)
due to a press fitted clamping ring (item 3). The inner ends of the spring packs (item 1) reach into
axial grooves of the inner star (item 12) such engaging the inner and outer member of the coupling.
The chambers A and B which are formed by the intermediate pieces (item 2) and the spring packs
(item 1) are filled with oil. If a torque twists the outer and inner member against each other the spring
packs will be deflected. This changes the volume of the oil chambers (A,B) and the oil will be
displaced from one chamber into the adjoining one through narrow gaps. The oil flow resistance
retards the relative movements of the two coupling members and dampens the vibration amplitudes.

Both plates (5,7) of the damper outer member and the sealings inserted therein hold the oil so that
the oil pressure which is to be used can build-up.

Governor and Actuator Ruston RK270

FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW OF PROPULSION CONTROL

This document is intended to present an overview of the operation of the propulsion control, making reference to
the various modes of operation, when they are to be used, and the sequencing of the system.

NB: This document is provided for information for INCAT vessels, as an overview of the system. Full details are
provided in the appropriate manufacturer’s manuals.

Part number 02877B – Woodward 723 Plus (hardware manual).


Functional Design Specification – INCAT Propulsion Control.

The system is designed to operate under three very distinct forms of control; some of these may then be operated
with different modes. The control methods are:-

1. Electronic
2. Pneumatic
3. Hand

The control forms refer to the positions from which control can exercised:-

1. Bridge - In electronic or pneumatic.


2. Local control panel – Electronic.
3. Actuator – Hand control (speed setting knob on governor).

This affords the system a great deal of flexibility, and allows continued operation when many of the support
systems (electricity and air supplies) have failed.

ELECTRONIC

The system will nominally operate in bridge control, with the speed demand signal (4-20mA) being converted by
the Woodward 723 Plus digital control (LECP) into a fuel demand via a 0-200mA signal through a PGA-EG58
Actuator mounted on the engine and connected to the fuel rack. This is ELECTRONIC MODE.

NB: The Actuator is reverse acting, so as the speed setting current from the 723 increases, proportional to the
bridge telegraph demand, the actuator position decreases and vice versa.

BACK UP

There is an I/P converter fitted to the system, which converts a 4-20mA signal to a 3-15PSI control air signal to
the governor’s ball-head (this provides pneumatic speed setting) control. This will be used in the event of the
failure of the 723 Plus, or a loss of both speed signals from the engine.

The pneumatic speed setting is not automatically selected, if the LECP’s internal WATCHDOG relay energises
then the ballhead in the Actuator takes control of the engine speed initially.

Engine speed is set to minimum (330 rpm) via a 5vdc (20mA) signal from the Switchover relay and as such the
engine will return to minimum speed.

Alarms will sound on the bridge to alert the operator. It is then the responsibility of the operators/maintainers to
investigate the cause of the problem e.g. loss of both speed sensor signals to the 723 Plus. The Bridge
Telegraph will be set to ‘idle’ speed by the operator.

m7f01006.doc Page 3 of 4 Section F01


Governor and Actuator Ruston RK270

CAUTION

It is imperative to set ‘IDLE SPEED’ on the affected Bridge Telegraph, otherwise the engine will be driven
to the selected speed as soon as BACK UP is selected, which may result in engine damage.

Once the cause of the failure has been located, or if operational circumstances warrant it, the operator
may select pneumatic control (BACK UP) by opening the LECP door and selecting MECHANICAL. The
LECP should be set for ‘Remote’; this will return control to the Bridge Telegraph.

HAND

Should there be a complete loss of both 723 Plus and Pneumatic control mediums the engine’s speed can be set
from the speed setting knobs on the front of the actuator itself.

To select HAND control at the actuator the LECP should be set to LOCAL/MANUAL.

It should be noted that controlling the engine speed in the above manner is directly driving the Speed Setting
Piston in the governor. All acceleration and deceleration rates will be by-passed as these are set in the 723 Plus.
Hence caution not to over-speed, or exceed torque limits of, the unit has to be exercised by the operator. Also all
723 trips and alarms are set in the governor.

FURTHER FUNCTIONS

If the analogue signal to the 723 Plus fails, then the control sets the engine speed to idle and an alarm will be
raised. The operator may then set Digital control on the Bridge. Digital control at the LECP is selected by setting
LOCAL/AUTO at the panel.

The operator must then go down to the LECP, select LOCAL CONTROL and then use RAISE/LOWER
commands at the LECP.

NB
1. In LOCAL control the 723 is fully functional, hence all engine protection within the control is operational.

2. All accel/decel rates are operational, hence it is possible the set a final higher/lower speed than actually
desired, because the RAISE/LOWER switch may be held in position for too long. It is, therefore, advised
to input a lot of short commands with the speed setting switches rather than fewer long ones.

3. Change from REMOTE to LOCAL is ‘Bumpless’ as the 723 Plus tracks the Analogue (REMOTE) signal
with the Digital (LOCAL) signal. However the change from digital to analogue is not ‘Bumpless’, so the
analogue demand must be approximately matched to the digital demand, before changing over to
analogue from digital.

IMPORTANT NOTE

ELECTRONIC control is the designed, normal operating method for the system. BACK UP and HAND
control modes are only meant as short term ‘limp to port’ running and should be considered ‘for
emergency use only’. 723 plus protection sequences may not available when in these operating modes.

Introduction

The governor drive housing (Fig.1) is mounted on the


flywheel end of the crankcase above the camshaft, 'B'
bank on vee-form engines. It is retained on the
crankcase by studs and nut and located in position by
dowel pins. The governor is mounted on the top of the
housing, retained by studs and nuts.

A drive spindle runs through the centre of the housing,


mounted in two bearings. At the top end of the spindle is
fitted a drive coupling and at the lower end a pinion is Fig.1 Governor drive housing.
keyed to the shaft, retained by nut and split pin. The
pinion is driven by a bevel wheel mounted on the
camshaft drive wheel (Fig.2).

When a new drive spindle or new bushes have been


fitted an end float of 0.05/0.20mm should be achieved by
removing material from the face of the bush next to the
pinion. The governor drive nut is to be tightened to
135Nm. If the slots in the nut do not align with the holes
in the spindle tighten further until they do.

NOTE:- The torque must not exceed 298Nm. DO NOT


file the nut or washer to achieve alignment. Fig.2 Governor pinion retained by a nut and split pin.

Setting gear mesh

If the drive assembly is being refitted without replacing


any components it should not be necessary to set the
gear mesh provided that the dowels are fitted before
tightening the securing nuts.

If new components have been fitted or the meshing of


the gears is suspect the assembly will require setting as
follows.

1. Remove the camshaft end float by barring it


towards the governor drive spindle.
Fig.3 Mark the bevel pinion with engineers blue.

2. Mark each tooth of the bevel pinion with a line


of engineers blue (Fig.3) and position the drive
assembly onto the engine.

3. Fit a shim between the drive and the crankcase


(Fig.4) which is to be machined to achieve a
backlash of 0.15/0.20mm between the pinion
and the bevel gear.

Governor linkage Ruston RK270

Introduction

The governor operates the fuel control shafts through a


linkage system which incorporates a telescopic link to Governor Output Shaft
provide a safety device should a control shaft jam.

The telescopic link comprises a casing, plunger guide,


spring, spring guide, end cap and adjustable link. The
casing is connected to the governor output shaft and the
adjustable link to the fuel control shafts (Fig.1).

Operation

Under normal operation the spring resistance allows the Adjustable Link
telescopic link to act as a rigid connection with the Telescopic Link
control rods when the governor raises the engine speed. link
However, in the event of a jammed control shaft the
spring will compress to prevent damage to the governor.

If the Overspeed trip or the hand control lever is


operated the spring will compress to allow the governor
Fig.1 Telescopic link to shafts and governor
to be overridden.

Setting

The lever, fitted to the output shaft on the governor,


should not be removed unless renewing or overhauling
the governor. If it has been removed it is essential that it
is fitted as follows.

1. Check the setting of the fuel control mechanism


as detailed in the fuel section.
2. Set the fuel control mechanism to the NO FUEL
position, using the 48mm setting gauge.
3. Check that the governor output shaft dial is
reading '0' and fit the lever to the governor
output shaft.
4. Check that the fuel control linkage is operating
correctly as described in the fuel section.

Pneumatic overspeed trip Ruston RK270

Introduction

The overspeed trip is pneumatically operated, the OVERSPEED TRIP


system is controlled by a speed switch which is operated
by a magnetic pickup sensing the teeth on the flywheel

A pneumatic cylinder with a piston rod is mounted at the
flywheel end of ‘A’ Bank and positioned to act against a
lever attached to the fuel pump control shaft returning
the fuel pump racks to the no fuel position - thus
stopping the engine - if the speed rises above a pre-set
maximum. The pneumatic system (Fig.1) is connected
to a permanent air supply and includes a volume
cylinder flow control valve and solenoid operated valve.

Fuel Oil Specification Ruston RK270

General requirements

Compression ignition engines are designed to operate on middle distillate fuels. Fuels meeting the requirements
of BS2869 Class A2 and ASTM D975 No 2D and equivalent specifications are suitable for Ruston diesel engines.

Distillate fuels meeting the requirements of BS2869 Class A1 or ASTM D975 No1 are intended for the more
demanding requirements of high-speed automotive diesel engines. However, they are fully acceptable for use in
Ruston diesel engines.

Burner fuels meeting BS2869 Class D or ASTM D396 No2 have a similar specification to diesel fuels meeting
BS2869 Class A1 and A2. However, since there is no Cetane Number requirement it will be necessary to confirm
with the fuel supplier that the ignition characteristics meet the diesel fuel specification.

Ignition quality

Ignition quality, as indicated by the Cetane Number or Cetane Index, influences ease of starting; duration of
“white smoke” after start up; “diesel knock” under idling conditions and ability to accept load. In extreme cases of
low Cetane number the performance and mechanical loading of the engine may be adversely affected even after
the warming up period.

Viscosity

The range of viscocity specified for Class A2 and No 2D fuels is intended to give good fuel injection
characteristics over a wide range of industrial engine types and operating speeds. Ruston engines will accept fuel
with a maximum viscosity of 11cSt at 40OC without the requirement for heating.

Low temperature flow

Cloud point

This is the temperature at which a cloud of wax crystals appear as the fuel is cooled under standard test
conditions and indicates the tendency of the fuel to block filters and small orifices in cold weather conditions.

Cold filter plugging point

The cold filter plugging point can be reduced by up to 10OC below the Cloud Point by the addition of flow
improvers which help to keep the wax crystals small so that they can pass through the fine pores of the fuel filter.

Long term storage at very low temperatures can result in some increase in the cold filter plugging point as wax
crystals tend to agglomerate. The fuel supplier will be able to provide advice on storage conditions.

Water and sediment

The water and sediment values given for Class A2 and No2D fuels are the maximum which are acceptable to the
standard fuel filter.

If the fuel available has higher levels of water and sediment these must be reduced to the quoted levels before
being supplied to the engine.

Fuel Oil Specification Ruston RK270

Sulphur content

Depending on the crude oil source, diesel fuels contain various amounts of sulphur compounds which, on
combustion, yield sulphur oxides which are corrosive. The sulphur content of the fuel is often limited by the
requirements of the exhaust gas emission regulations.

Sulphur oxide reaching the engine lubricating oil can cause this to become acidic unless an adequate reserve of
alkalinity is present. It is important therefore that the Total Base Number of the lubricating oil is sufficient to meet
the maximum sulphur content of the fuel.

CHAPTER 2 - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

SECTION 1 - Pump Construction

1.1 Fig, 1A Shows the construction of the Ruston RK270 series Fuel Injection Pump Type FCWAB.

Fig IA - FCWAB Series Pump

SECTION 2 - Principle of Operation

2.1 The Lucas FCWAB size fuel injection pump is of the single cylinder flange mounted, constant stroke jerk
type. Fuel is pressurised inside a pumping element which comprises a sturdy barrel surrounding a very close
fitting plunger which is lifted rapidly in the barrel by means of a fast cam and a roller follower on the engine. The
plunger is returned back down the barrel after injection by means of a spring and lower spring plate fitted over the
plunger foot, itself resting in a tappet in the base of the pump.

2.2 Above the pumping element is the pressure unloading delivery valve which controls the system pressure
* trapped between injections and prevents suction back from the injector after injection.

2.3 The pump uses a helical groove on the plunger to control its fuelling range. The barrel is filled with fuel at
supply pressure when the plunger is on the cam base circle through a side port in the barrel. As the plunger rises
its top edge closes against the top edge of the spill port, starting to pressurise fuel above the plunger. Fuel is forced
past the delivery valve out to the injector and into the engine cylinder at high pressure. To finish the injection, the
plunger rises until the helix edge starts to uncover the spill port. Fuel then flows down a hole drilled in the plunger
top and connected with the helix, into the helix and out through the spill port into the gallery of the fuel pump.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS

SECTION 7
Introduction

SECTION 2
Troubleshooting
CHAPTER 3 - FAULT DIAGNOSIS

SECTION 1 - Introduction

1.1 The FCWAB pump will normally have a long working life before requiring overhaul and replacement of parts
provided that the fuel oil and engine lubricating oil have not been contaminated by dirt or water.

1.2 Failure to meet these requirements can result in premature wear, corrosion, leakage or component failure,
and may also be detrimental to the injector, and to the engine itself. The only adjustments possible are of injection
timing, and output calibration.

1.3 The need to remove pumps for overhaul or adjustment will be indicated by the Engine Manufacturer’s
recommended servicing schedules, backed up by operating experience, and will vary according to the rating,
operating environment and type of duty. It is thus only possible to give general advice within the scope of these
instructions.

1.4 Fuel pumps will wear with time, but such wear is usually uniform throughout an engine set, so that balance
between pumps will remain acceptable for normal operating requirements.

SECTION 2 - Trouble Shooting

2.1 Individual pumps which behave differently from the remainder of the engine set should be examined as soon
as possible. A pump requiring a high control rod setting to balance exhaust temperature may have a worn element,
or leaking delivery valve; running hot can result from leakage from the high pressure joint, possible causes being
restriction in the high pressure line (blocked spray holes or filter, inadequate needle lift or damaged pipe).

2.2 Abnormal leakage of fuel oil from the base of the pump will usually be due to element wear, which may have
it’s origins in water in the fuel.

NOTE
information is included in Chapter 6 Examination and Servicing for guidance in assessing
component condition, and fault diagnosis.

Procedure .
CHAPTER 4 - DISMANTLING

SECTION 1 - Preparation

WARNING

All work carried out on Lucas equipment


must be compliant with Service Bulletin
308, Recommendations on the Safe
Handling and use of Lucas Bryce
Equipment.

WARNING

Viton ‘0’ rings are used in all Lucas


injectors. If subjected to high
temperatures &315X), these rings
produce extremely corrosive acid.
Avoid contact with any rings which
Cook suspect, or from equipment which
may have been close to an engine fire.

NOTE

Parts referred to may not be separately identified in the Illustrated Parts Catalogue. They will normally
be part of a higher assembly.

1 .I Workshop cleanliness, when dismantling fuel injection equipment, it is essential to ensure subsequent
trouble -free operation. The workbench must be thoroughly cleaned before commencing work and all dirt, grit, iron
filings and other foreign materials removed. Clean containers should be provided in which to place components.

1.2 A thoroughly cleaned vessel holding a supply of fresh, clean water-free, light fuel oil or injector test oil should
be available for washing dismantled parts. Components should be assembled wet. It is permissible to use
non-fluffing paper during cleaning processes. Never use paraffin or kerosene and never use woven cloths or
wipers.

1.3 The components of each individual pump should be kept together during dismantling. It is especially
important that pump plungers are only fitted to barrels with which they were originally mated and that the delivery
valve is re-assembled with its mated seat.

1.4 A brass wire brush will be found useful for cleaning all non-mating surfaces and a scraper is suitable for
clearing small carbon deposits. Hard tools must not be used on highly finished surfaces such as those on the pump
plunger or barrel.

CAUTION

The use of kerosene (paraffin) is not recommended for washing parts as it may contain water which
can cause corrosion. During the dismantling operation, the components of each individual pump should be
kept entirely separate and it is especially important that pump plungers are only fitted to barrels with which
they were originally mated. Similarly, the Pressure Unloading Delivery Valve should be re-assembled with
it’s original components.

1.5 When overhauling pumps, the plunger, it’s barrel and the pressure unloading delivery valve should never be
touched with a file or other hand tool. If any of these parts are damaged they should be sent to Lucas or a Lucas
Agent for attention. Before starting to dismantle a pump, remove protection plugs or caps, if fitted, and pour off any
fuel which may remain in the pump.

1.6 Refer to Chapter 5 for Cleaning Procedure.

1.7 Refer to Chapter 9 for Tooling Requirements.

SECTION 2 - Procedure

Refer to Fig 2A

2.1 Bottom

The assembly fixture (Part No. 1 B22835) should be secured to a suitable mounting by means of the location
hole in the fixture back plate. The mounting should allow the fixture to rotate through 3609 around the axis of the
mounting shaft.

Bolt the pump to the assembly fixture in an upright position with the control rod facing the operator.

Turn the fixture through 780L, swing over and secure the fixture support arm and, using the hand wheel,
depress the Tappet (7) clear off the Circlip-Lower (2), and push a steel rod 3-4mm diameter through one of the
radial holes in the spigot to displace the Circlip-Lower from its groove. Prise out the Circlip-Lower using a small
screwdriver.

Unscrew the fixture ha?d wheel until the tappet depressor clears the Tappet and swing the support arm
clear. Remove the Tappet lift out the Spring Plate-Lower (3) with the Plunger (4).

CAUTION

Take care not to drop the Plunger as this will cause irreparable damage. Place the Plunger in a
container of clean fuel oil.

2.2 Remove the Spring-Plunger (5), Control Sleeve (6), this will also lift out the Spring Plate-Upper (7). Turn the
fixture through 780L, so that the pump is upright.

Slide out the Control Rod (8) by first removing the Screw-Control Rod Locating (9) and Washer (70).

Do not remove the Stop Cap-Control Rod Hex. Head Bolt (7 7) and Spring Washer (72) which retains the ’
Shims (73) and Stop Cap-Control Rod (74) unless facilities for recalibrating pumps are available.

Using a 77mm A/F socket remove the two Spill Plugs (75) and discard the Washers (76).

2.3 Top

Using a 7Omm A/F hex, socket attached to at least a 7OOlbf ft torque wrench, gradually slacken the six
Socket Head Cap Screws (7 7) in diagonal sequence. When completely slackened, remove them. Lift off the
Clamping Plate (7 8).

Remove the PUDV Assembly (79). Remove Backing Ring (20), Anti-Extrusion Ring (27) and Seal- ‘0’ Rings
(22), (23) and discard.

Unscrew the Screw-Barrel Locating (24) and Washer (25). Turn the fixture through 90” so that the pump is
horizontal. With one hand over the top of the pump housing, carefully remotie the Barrel (26) by pushing or tapping
with a nylon or plastic drift.

CAUTION

Do not use hard metal tools and ensure that the barrel is not dropped as this could cause serious

2
damage to the sealing face.

2.4 After removal of the Barrel, assemble the Plunger (4) to it carefully and place the Element Assembly (27) in a
container of clean fuel oil.

Remove the two Seal-‘0’ Rings (28 & 29) from the Pump Housing (30) and discard.

Remove the Blanking Plug (37 NI) and Washer (32NI) from the pump if fitted, discard the Washer.

NOTE

All parts should be demagnetised prior to cleaning if this process is available. This will ensure
removal of all metallic particles during the cleaning process. Wash all parts in clean fuel oil.

CHAPTER 6 - EXAMINATION AND SERVICING

SECTION 1 - Introduction

1.1 Prior to examination the fuel pump must be thoroughly cleaned in accordance with Chapter 5.

I .2 All ‘0’ ring seals, joint washers and gaskets should be replaced during pump rework.

1.3 Plunger Springs and delivery valve springs will settle during service and no check is required on their length.
Replace any springs showing signs of broken coils, corrosion, pitting, collapse or distortion. The latter are indicated
by flats being worn on the outside diameter of the coil. Rejection will normally be based on mechanical wear.

SECTION 2 - Element Assembly

2.1 The most usual reason for element replacement is erosion damage, of the upper end of the plunger in the
area swept by the barrel ports. This reduces pumping efficiency, resulting in the need to increase the control rod
opening.

2.2 Erosion damage is recognisable as a pitted surface on the otherwise smooth fine ground or lapped surface of the
plunger. It will be in the area swept by the ports and the first sign will be a small crescent-shaped mark in the position
occupied by the upper edge of the port at the point of spill.

2.2.1 On engines running at constant load, the marks will extend to form an imprint of the entire port, the imprint may
eventually reach the helix edge.
On engines running under a constantly varying load, the crescent-shaped marks will form a continuous line
inclined at the same angle as the helix.

2.2.2 Such erosion is not directly detrimental to element performance until it has reached a level at which running for a
further agreed period would further erode the plunger to a level which would affect pump delivery. If this is the case, the
the element assembly should be replaced.
Assessment of the level of erosion is necessarily somewhat subjective but guidelines for reuse are as follows:
If the erosion at any point has reached within 0.75mm of the helix edge or its depth, measured at any point, is
greater than O.l5mm, the element should be replaced.

2.2.3 Erosion damage progresses at a reasonably uniform rate, thus an estimate of the remaining service life can be
made if the hours run to date are known.

2.3 Check the barrel ports for erosion at the following places:

1) Inner edges where they meet the ground bore.

2) Inside the port for possible spill plume attack of the upper edge of the port.

2.3.1 If plunger erosion has occurred, light port inner edge erosion is likely, usually part way around the port, not at the
very top. This is acceptable if the edge is not heavily eroded.

2.3.2 Inner port erosion is also very difficult to quantify. If erosion has occurred, but is not deep, this is acceptable.
Barrels with deep erosion must be scrapped.

2.4 If erosion damage is noted only on individual pumps, it may be due to a restriction in the injector or high pressure
line causing excessive pressure. Check that the nozzle needle lift is correct and that the high pressure pipe ends are not
closed.
2.5 Another cause of element deterioration is the presence of water in the fuel, which is indicated by gradual
blackening of the mated surfaces of the barrel and plunger by the formation of black iron oxide. This causes
breakdown of the finish, resulting in rapid wear.

2.5.1 If the element clearance does not appear excessive, compared with a new element assembly, the plunger and
barrel may be lightly lapped together to remove the very fine layer of corrosion. Use a mixture of very fine lapping paste
tallow and test oil (see Chapter 1, Section 6 Consumables, for product details).

NOTE
Lapping should be minimal as excessive lapping will create ‘washaway’ areas next to the timing and spill
control edges on the plunger.

2.5.2 If proper gauging equipment is unavailable, the acceptance or otherwise of the resulting element can only be
checked in an assembled pump and its calibration checked. An excessively worn element will usually produce excessive
delivery at the low delivery test.

2.5.3 Check the top face of the barrel for evidence of leakage, which will show as fine, irregular tracking marks.
It is possible to remove these by lapping provided that they are not too deep, but the sealing face must be
maintained parallel to the barrel seating shoulder within, 0.025mm (.OOl”) across the diameter.

2.6 Ensure that the fuel leak-off and lube oil drilling are clean and clear.
It is unlikely that wear of the plunger dogs, or of the plunger foot, will be sufficient to require replacement of the
element assembly, but these features should be checked for clearance in conjunction with the related working parts. See
sections relating to control rod and control sleeve and spring plate lower.

CAUTION
The plunger and barrel are a mated assembly; if either of these parts is defective beyond repair, a new
element assembly must be used.

SECTION 3 - Pressure Unloading Delivery Valve [PUDV

3.1 The PUDV may be dismantled by removing the two capscrews, care should be taken not to lose the parts
when the assembly opens.

3.2 The contra-flow valve spring seat is removed using a M5 threaded tool by screwing it into the seat and
extracting.

3.3 Examine the lapped faces for evidence of tracking as described under Element Assembly. If lapping of the
delivery valve seat is required., the two faces must be maintained parallel within 0,05mm (0.002”) measured across
the faces. If lapping of the delivery valve holder is required, the sealing face must be maintained parallel to the
shoulder within 0,05mm (0.002”).

Check delivery valve holder high pressure pipe connection and threads for damage and distortion.

3.4 Replacement of components is necessary if the mitre seating of either delivery valve or delivery valve seat is
ridged or discontinuous and also if the contraflow valve seat is damaged. Check the contraflow valves seat for
erosion around the seating line. Check the contraflow valve spring is in good condition and that the spring free
length is not less than 25.9mm. Check also that the spring seat is still an interference fit in the delivery valve seat, it
is reassembled by tapping the spring seat in using a brass square block and small hammer until it becomes flush
with the delivery valve seat sealing face.

3.5 Check the Main Valve (pro-flow) Spring has a free length greater than 27.3mm. Replace if it is shorter.

3.6 When assembled, the opening pressure of the PUDV may be checked using fixture (SK1 4103). The contraflow
valve pressure should be between 90-l 31 bar for a new assembly. During service the pressure may drop. If the pressure
drops below 75bar it may be reset by changing the contraflow valve spring and valve.

CAUTION
The contraflow valve should not be reset by using shims.

2
SECTION 4 - Spill Plugs

These are sacrificial components and will show evidence of erosion attack after prolonged service. This is
normal and they should be replaced when the damage exceeds a depth of 4mm.

SECTION 5 - Barrel Locating Screw

Replace if threads or plain end are damaged or chipped. Replace copper washer.

SECTION 6 - Tappet

6.1 There should be a bright contact mark each side of the end face made by the plunger foot, and the engine
tappet head. Any tappet which is cracked in this area, or on which the indentation exceeds 0,13mm (.005”) on
either side should be replaced, as continued running can cause rapid further wear resulting in retarded injection
timing, with eventual breakage and other consequential damage.

6.2 The outside diameter should be clean, with polished bands extending round the entire periphery from each
end. Rejection should be based on mechanical wear.

SECTION 7 - Housing

7.1 Check the housing for cracks, particularly around the flange and mounting holes. If cracks are present, the
housing must be replaced.

7.2 Check the inside of the housing for signs of erosion or corrosion - especially in the fuel gallery. The housing
must be replaced if erosion exceeds a depth of 5mm.

7.3 Check for wear in the control rod bore. With the control rod assembled at mid-travel, clearance in the
horizontal and vertical planes should not exceed 0,25mm (0.010”).

SECTION 8 - Lower End

8.1 These should all dismantle freely and at the most be coated with a film of carbonised oil on the non - wearing
surfaces.

8.2 Presence of a brown coloured paste indicates poor venting of the tappet chamber - check that the drain
holes in the pump mounting are clear. It would also indicate fuel supply temperatures that are below the ‘dew’ point
for the locality of operation.

8.3 Check the Plunger Spring for free length. This must be no shorter than 100.5mm. Check the Spring on a flat
steel surface plate. Squareness of its coils to the end faces must be written 1.5mm (runout up the spring using a
steel square).

SECTION 9 - Control Rod and Control Sleeve

9.1 Replace any components with teeth which are worn or damaged. Backlash in the assembled condition
should not exceed 0.2mm (.008”).

9.2 The slot in the control sleeve should be free from visible wear or steps at the top of the plunger stroke.
Clearance between plunger dogs and control slots should not exceed 0,2mm (.008”). Ensure that the control rod
runs freely in the housing bore.

3
SECTION 10 - Spring Plate - Lower

10.1 Check the axial clearance of the plunger foot by ‘trapping’ the plunger against a flat face. The plunger must
be free to rotate, but the axial clearance should not exceed 0,3mm (.OlfL”). (See Fig WA). (Total clearance with
tappet indented 0,13mm (.005”) not to exceed 0,43mm (.017”).

WARNING

All work carried out on Lucas equipment


must be compliant with Service Bulletin
308, Recommendations on the Safe
Handling and use of Lucas Bryce
Equipment.

I .I Workshop cleanliness, when assembling fuel injection equipment is essential to ensure subsequent
trouble -free operation. The workbench must be thoroughly cleaned before commencing work and all dirt, grit, iron
filings and other foreign materials removed. Clean containers should be provided in which to place components.

1.2 A thoroughly cleaned vessel holding a supply of fresh, clean water-free, light fuel oil or injector test oil should
be available for washing dismantled parts. Components should be assembled wet. It is permissible to use
non-fluffing paper during cleaning processes. Never use paraffin or kerosene and never use woven cloths or
wipers.

1.3 The components of each individual pump should be kept together during assembly. It is especially important
that pump plungers are only fitted to barrels with which they were originally mated and that the delivery valve is
re-assembled with its mated seat.

1.4 A brass wire brush will be found useful for cleaning all non-mating surfaces and a scraper is suitable for
clearing small carbon deposits. No hard tool should be used on highly finished surfaces such as those on the pump
plunger or barrel.

1.5 Ensure that all pump components are clean and that all grooves and drilling are clear before assembly.

1.6 Refer to Chapter 5 for Cleaning Procedure.

1.7 Refer to Chapter 9 for the Tooling required for pump assembly.

SECTION 2 - PUDV Asslembly

2.1 The re-assembly procedure is the reverse of the dismantling procedure. Ensure that the contra-flow valve is
positioned in the Delivery Valve seat the correct way up.

2.2 Replace the contra-flow valve spring and then insert the spring seat by tapping it with a brass square block
and small hammer until it becomes flush with the delivery valve seat sealing face. The Delivery Valve seat is then
attached to the Delivery Valve Holder via the two capscrews to a torque of 4.5Nm. Fit a new Seal ‘0’ Ring (1) and
Backing Ring (2). Fixture 75/795 must be used to test the valve assembly.

SECTION 3 - Upper End Assembly

(See Fig 3A)

3.7 Bolt the housing to assembly fixture, Part No. 1822835.


3.2 Fit new Spill Plugs (3) and new Washers (4) and, using a 77mm A/F socket and torque wrench, tighten to the
specified torque.

3.3 Smear the Seal-‘0’ Rings (5 and 6) with petroleum jelly and p/ace in position half way down the inside of the
housing.

NOTE

Both ‘0’ ring seals are similar, ensure each ‘0’ ring seal is fitted in it’s correct groove. It may be
easier to turn the assembly fixture through 18@ whilst inserting these seals.

3.4 Align the barrel location slot by eye with the barrel location screw tapping in the housing. Lower the Barrel (7)
into the housing and check for alignment of the barrel and the barrel locating screw tapping. Fit a new Seal ‘0’ Ring
(8) and Anti Extrusion Ring (9). Place the PUDV Assembly (70) into the pump housing. Place the Clamp Plate (17)
over the delivery valve holder. Fit the six Socket Head Cap Screws (12) after covering their threads with the
recommended lubricant detailed in Chapter 7, and tighten each finger - tight. This will push the Barrel (7) into the
housing and barrel location slot should appear when looking through the housing’s barrel locating screw tapping, if
not disassemble and retry. Screw in the Screw-Barrel Locating (73) together with a new Washer (74) by hand. Do
not force the screw but undo the six socket head cap screws and realign the barrel. Using a 7Omm A/F socket and
torque wrench, tighten the six socket head cap screws in sequence in the increments given in Chapter 7 Section 4,
See Fig 3B for the cap screw tightening sequence.

3.5 On completion check that all screws are tightened to 775 Nm (85 Ibf ft) and also that the gap between the
pump housing and the clamp plate does not vary by more than 0,25mm around the clamping plate. Using the same
tightening sequence, release one bolt at a time 7/8th of a turn and re-tighten to 7 75 Nm (85 Ibf ft).

This procedure will settle the high pressure sealing faces into the optimum sealing position.

SECTION 1 - Introduction

WARNING

All work carried out on Lucas equipment


must be compliant with Service Bulletin
308, Recommendations on the Safe
Handling and use of Lucas Bryce
Equipment.

WARNING

Viton ‘0’ Rings are used in all Lucas pumps


and injectors. If subjected to high
temperatures (>315 deg. C), these rings
produce extremely corrosive acid. Avoid
contact with any rings which look Suspect,
or from equipment which may have been
close to an engine fire.

CAUTION

Fuel oil should, preferably, be purchased in large quantities and stored in covered twin tanks
connected in such a way that one serves as a settling tank. (galvanised containers should never be used).
The fuel oil should be drawn through large-capacity filters to the engine supply tank. The engine tank
should be adequately filled at all times to obviate moisture condensation: it should not be completely
emptied (other than for periodic cleaning) as the dregs usually contain harmful impurities.

1 .I Refer to Chapter 9 for details of the Tooling and Test Equipment required for Fuel Pump Testing.

1.2 Refer to Chapter 1 for details of the test oil to be used for Fuel Pump testing.

1.3 The test oil temperature during testing must be maintained at 38-42%.

WARNING
When testing injectors ensure that the fuel
spray is directed away from the person.
Keep hands away from the spray, which
can penetrate the skin and cause injury.
If oil penetrates the skin, prompt medical
attention will be required to drain the oil,
to remove any foreign body, and to
prevent infection

WARNING
Use goggles or similar eye protection
if the spray is exposed. Do not permit an
injector on test to direct its spray towards
a heat source or naked flame.
Oil in spray form is highly flammable.
Ensure that the room or space where
injectors are tested is well ventilated and

1
that an efficient extractor is used to
remove oil spray.

SECTION 2 - High Pressure Seals

2.1 Turn the fixture so that the pump is in a horizontal position and insert the dummy plunger (Part No
16820332) into the barrel, push it firmly against the delivery valve seat face.

2.2 Tighten down the knurled nut expand the ‘0’ rings against the bore of the barrel.

2.3 Swing over and secure the assembly fixture support arm and screw down the handwheel until light pressure
is exerted on the support collar over the dummy plunger.

2.4 Connect the high pressure fuel oil source, air hydro pump (Part No. 75/617B), to the delivery valve holder.
After venting, pressurise to 1700 bar (25,000 Ibf/in*) and isolate the circuit. The pressure must not drop by more
than 35 bar (500 Ibf/in*) in 30 seconds. If the test is satisfactory, remove the high pressure oil source.

2.5 If the test is not satisfactory, the first check should be for leakage from the pipe connections or insufficient
venting of air from the system. If these are satisfactory, check that the ‘0’ ring seals on the dummy plunger are still
in good condition. Failing any other apparent deficiencies, then the pump sealing faces may be damaged or the
delivery valve holder may be clamped unevenly. Dismantle the top end assembly, inspect the sealing faces and
relap if necessary. Re-assemble the top end of the pump, paying particular attention to the correct tightening
procedure of the clamping bolts and reset. Refer to Chapter 7 Assembly.

SECTION 3 - Lower Pressure Seals

3.1 With the dummy plunger in situ, turn the fixture through 90” so that the pump is in an upright position.

3.2 Insert a blanking plug into one of the fuel inlet/outlet ports and supply air at 5,5 bar (80 Ibf/in*) to the other
fuel inlet/outlet port through an adaptor.

3.3 Completely immerse the housing assembly in a bath of clean fuel. Any flow of air bubbles through the oil
from the element lubrication connection indicates faulty barrel/housing setting.

3.4 Examine for any air bubbles from the spill plugs - none are permissible.

3.5 Examine for any air bubbles from the gap between the housing and the top cap - none are permissible.

3.6 Remove the air supply form the fuel inlet/outlet port.

3.7 Supply air at 5,5 bar (80 Ibf/in*) to both leak-off / lub oil connection via l/8” BSP adaptors.

3.8 Any flow of air bubbles when air is passed through the lower leak-off/lub oil connection indicates an ‘0’ ring
failure in one or two places depending on the location of the air bubbles.

3.9 Any flow of air bubbles when air is passed through the upper leak-off / lub oil connection indicates either an
‘0’ ring failure, barrel locating screw seal failure or faulty barrel housing sealing, depending on the location of the
air bubbles.

3.10 Disconnect the air supply and remove the dummy plunger, pressure test adaptors and blanking plugs.

SECTION 4 - Spill Timing

4.1 With the pump still in the assembly fixture and the top of the pump assembled, remove one of the spill plugs
and washer.

2
4.2 Remove the pump from the assembly fixture.

4.3 Carefully place the pump upside down on a suitable mounting block. Insert the spill timing bar through the
spill port, ensuring it engages with the opposite spill port.

4.4 Assemble the plunger to the barrel so that it rests on the spill timing bar. Slowly remove the spill timing bar
until the plunger drops down and is resting on the spill edge not the top cap face.

NOTE

Spill Timing Bar to be 4.9 +O.O5mm diameter.

4.5 Place the tappet in the tappet bore and lower until it rests on the plunger foot.

4.6 Place a shim plate - but no shims or rivets on the pump flange. The underside of the pump flange and shim
plate should be clean, flat and free of sharp edges.

4.7 Place two 25,4mm (1”) parallel blocks on the shim plate, two dimensions can be checked with a depth
micrometer.

4.8 See Fig 4A Dimension ‘X; is the depth from the parallel block face to the shim plate. Dimension ‘Y’ is the
depth from the parallel block face to the tappet face. The ‘A’ dimension of 7Om~0,05 is obtained by subtracting
dimension ‘Y’ from dimension ‘X’. An additional 0, Imm is to be added to compensate for the reduced diameter of
the spill timing bar. A shim thickness of IO, Imm gives an ‘A’ dimension of 1Omm and provides a stroke to port
closure (STPC) dimension of 5mm. Select shims to the value determined by the above operation and place on the
underside of the pump housiqg flange. Fit the shim plate; re-check the ‘A’ dimension by the same method. Remove
the tappet plunger and spill timing bar.

4.9 Replace the spill plug and washer and tighten to the specified torque.

NOTE:
The underside of the flange, shims and shim plate must be clean, flat and free from sharp edges.

Fig 4A - CHECKING THE ‘A’ DIMENSION

SECTION 5 - Lower End

5.1 Lubricate the control rod with fuel oil and insert into the control rod bore of the pump housing. If they have
been removed replace the control rod stop cap the shims that were originally used, spring washer and control rod
stop cap hex. head bolt.

5.2 Fit the control sleeve and mesh with the control rod so that the assembly marks correspond (i.e. the dot on
the control sleeve aligns with the middle of the notch on the control rod).

3
5.3 Fit the upper spring plate and plunger spring. Fit the plunger to the lower spring plate and lower into the
barrel, ensuring that the ‘V’ notch on one of the dogs on the plunger is aligned 180” to the dot/notch on the control
sleeve/control rod. Place the tappet in the tappet bore.

5.4 Swing over and secure the fixture support arm and, by screwing down the adjustable handwheel, start to
compress the plunger spring.

5.5 When depressing the tappet to compress the plunger spring, first check that the plunger dogs have engaged
with the slot entry by actuating the control rod, which must move freely. Continue to depress the tappet while
reciprocating the plunger until the tappet base is below the circlip groove in the pump housing. If the control rod
becomes stiff, slacken off the handwheel slightly until it frees and try again.

5.6 Secure the tappet by engaging the circlip in the groove machined in the housing bore; Replace the brass
plug with a new washer to the flange if originally fitted.

5.7 Slacken the hand wheel to remove the force of the tappet and plunger spring before attempting to remove
the pump from the fixture.

5.8 Remove the pump from the fixture and secure the shims and plate with pop rivets.

CAUTION

Do not use any Gaskets or Sealing compounds on these components.

Remove any test blanking plugs and fit protective plugs to the fuel ports, leak - off / lube. oil
connections and a protective cap to the delivery valve holder outlet.

painted yellow: Identifies that the pumping element has been quality checked to ensur’

freedom from grinding cracks in the bore.

2. Nameplate stamped ‘1’ on top left hand corner and one clamping plate capscrew head
painted red: Identifies that the lower ‘0’ ring seal and its backing ring (anti extrusion rir
between the valve assembly and housing have been refitted.

3. Nameplate stamped ‘2’ on bottom right corner: Identifies that upper and lower ‘0’ ring seals
between the valve assembly and housing have been changed to the ‘green Viton’ type and
the upper backing ring has been changed to the ‘single-scarf-cut’ PTFE type. This case
supersedes all previous identification.

NOTE:

If pumps are stamped with a letter ‘B’, this signifies the pumps were previously used and not
original equipment, at the time of conversion.

SERVICE REQUIREMENTS AT PUMP AT NEXT OPPORTUNITY

Assembling fuel injection pumps to the engine Ruston RK270

Introduction

The rate of fuel delivery is determined by the pump


plunger stroke and diameter, the only adjustments are
the timing of the fuel injection and the quantity of fuel
delivered.

The fuel injection pumps must be timed to deliver the


metered quantity of fuel to the engine combustion
chambers at the exact point in the engine cycle at which
it is required.

Each fuel pump is shimmed during manufacture to


counteract tolerance variations. Each tappet is shimmed
Fig.1 Fuel injection pump
to give a standard datum point for pump mountings so
that any pump, properly shimmed, can be fitted to any
position on any engine.

Removal

1. Shut off the fuel supply to engine.

2. Drain fuel from the fuel rails.

3. Remove the cover from the injector pipe. Fig.2 Remove the injector pipe

4. Remove the injector pipe (Fig.2).

5. Remove the top cover.

6. Disconnect fuel feed and return pipes.

7. Bar engine over until the fuel tappet roller is on


the base circle of the cam.

8. Release holding down nuts and lift pump from


the mounting.
Fig.3 Check the shims and rivets are in position.
Installation

1. Check that the shims (Fig.3), plate and rivets


are in position on the underside of the pump
mounting flange.

Note:- If a fuel pump is being changed due to a


failure on the pump, a new pump can be fitted
without any need for a check on timing.

2. Remove the fuel pump drive roller and spindle


from the pump that has been removed and fit to
the new pump (Fig.4). Fig.4 Fit the roller and spindle to the new pump

m7g05002.doc Page 3 of 7 Section G05

3. Bar round the engine until the fuel pump tappet


roller of the cylinder concerned is on the base
circle of the cam.

4. Assemble the pump to its tappet (ensuring that


the drive roller is located correctly in the control

NOTE: On certain installations, it may be that the


Balance Point is outside the site load range in such
installations the maximum fuel stop must be
unscrewed as follows. (H)

3. Before unscrewing the stop, mark it to place


and open the control linkage until restrained by
the stop.

4. Measure the distance between the rack collar


and the body of the fuel pump nearest
governor. This measurement will be used later Fig.11 Check the racks with the 12mm gauges (H)
when the maximum fuel stop is restored to its
original setting.

5. On completion of adjustments at the Balance


Point, for Vee engines, check that the mean
rack travel (from Balance Point to No Fuel) is
uniform for both banks.

6. Any discrepancy must be corrected by


adjustment of the control linkage (J). If this
results in the No Fuel setting being exceeded
on any cylinder, the control linkage should be
adjusted at the governor (K).

7. With the rack at the limit of its travel, the


distance between the rack collar and the fuel
pump body is nominally 51.0 mm (Fig.12). It is
important for the No Fuel setting to be between
this dimension and the thickness of the No Fuel
setting gauge (48mm).

Tuning

Tuning should not normally be carried out, or required


once the pumps have been installed. However, if a test
run is required for other purposes check that the cylinder
exhaust temperature scatter (on full load) is within 70OC
and that peak pressure scatter (also on full load) is
within 7.0 bar. Fig.14 Peak pressure indicator

Greater scatter, particularly of exhaust temperatures,


may be accepted provided that the scatter conforms to a
distinct pattern.

Scatter can be due to factors which have no significant


effect on cylinder behaviour, such as manifold layout or
instrument siting.

Operators will generally know whether or not this applies


to their engines and, in applicable cases, points to check
are:-

1. That the individual cylinders conform (20OC)


to the pattern.

2. That the turbine inlet temperatures are still


within the 70 OC range.

m7g05002.doc Page 6 of 7 Section G05


Assembling fuel injection pumps to the engine Ruston RK270

If these conditions are not evident, investigations of


settings and build should be made and corrective
measures taken; if the investigations reveal no
significant defects, exchange injectors and/or fuel pumps
between cylinders with extreme readings (changes of
less than 10OC or 1.4 bar are not significant).

The settings of the exchanged pumps should be


checked and reset as necessary in accordance with this
instruction, but otherwise the injection timing settings
must not be disturbed. No attempt must be made to level
cylinder exhaust temperatures by interference with the
rack adjusting screws as this may well aggravate
unequal loading between cylinders.

CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION

SECTION 1 Manual Objective and Layout

1 .I This Workshop Manual has been prepared to cover the operation servicing and overhaul of the Lucas Fuel
Injectors as fitted to the GEC ALSTHOM Ruston Diesels RK270 Mk2 series engine.

It is primarily intended for use by Lucas Distributors and approved Service Agents but the information may
also be of assistance to the Operator and the Engine Manufacturer.

NOTE

Lucas recommend that the Injector Nozzles covered by this manual are operated to a “ON
CONDITION” lifing policy. The actual number of hours achieved in service before removal will vary
considerably between different applications and running environments and will normally be controlled by
progressive life sampling.

Lucas do not recommend that ‘T’ size nozzles are reworked in service. All nozzles which are removed
from the engine on a scheduled basis or because of unsatisfactory performance should be replaced by a
new genuine Lucas spare.

This policy reflects the inability to rework nozzles to a “as new” standard and will ensure the
following:

0 Optimum emission control

0 Reduced fuel consumption

0 Eliminate component spares holding

0 Minimum engine down time

0 Eliminate need to train maintenance


personnel on nozzle repair techniques

0 Ensure the economic turn around of injectors


to “as new” condition

The Nozzle rework information provided within its Workshop Manual is intended for use by
Distributors in an emergency where spare complete Nozzle Assemblies are not available.

1.2 Although great care has been taken in ensuring the maximum accuracy of the information provided minor
variations may occur over the production phase of the equipment. No liability can be accepted by Lucas for
damage loss or injury caused by any errors or omissions within this manual.

WARNING
To guarantee the safety, performance and
reliability of the equipment, only genuine
Lucas spares must be used during rework.

1.3 In general this manual is presented and laid out so that the information provided is readily accessible. Each
significant information topic is identified with a dedicated chapter reference number with the chapters being sub

1
divided into sections where appropriate.

Photographic reproductions, general artwork and other illustrations are identified with the section number to
which it relates followed by an alpha suffix which in turn is followed by the title eg (Fig 3B - Delivery Valve Holder)
The text will have a reference to the photographic image in bold eg (See Fig 3B)

1.4 Every effort has been made to make the manual self contained and references out to other documents are
kept to a minimum.

SECTION 2 - Principle of operation

2.f Both types of fuel injector comprise two assemblies, a nozzle holder body assembly and a nozzle assembly.

The holder body used is of the low spring low inertia type which has the injector spring located as near as

I
possible to the nozzle. The release pressure is adjusted by the use of shims.

2.2 The 99/557T injector has drillings in its nozzle holder body and nozzle body to provide cooling for engines
operating on residual fuels.

The control drilled passage in the holder body is for the leak of fuel that escapes past the nozzle needle
valve. The leak off passage is connected to a cross drilling in the nozzle holder body so fuel leakage can be led
away.

2.3 The lower end of the holder body has a central hole into which is fitted an upper spring plate, adjusting
shims, spring and thrust cap. A recess in the end of the thrust cap locates to the end of the nozzle needle thrust
pin, to transmit the spring load to the needle.

A transfer block is fitted between the end of the holder body and the nozzle and forms an abutment for the
shoulder of the needle to limit the needle lift

CHAPTER 3 - FAULT DIAGNOSIS

SECTION 1 - Troubleshooting

1 .I The failure of a nozzle to function correctly can be due to:

a. Needle friction following the ingress of dirt or other foreign material or to side loading caused
by a worn or damaged spring.

b. Out of square nozzle holder body to nozzle joint faces.

c. Restricted needle lift.

d. Dirt on the seating line.

e. Damaged or eccentric seats.

f. Incorrect seat angles giving incorrect seating line or no angular difference.

g. The presence of cavitation on the nozzle seat line.

1.2 It is evident that, for correct operation, the needle must locate on the needle seat diameter. An angular
difference provided between the needle and seat ensures that the seating line is always maintained at the top of
the needle seating cone.

Note

Information is included in Chapter 6 Examination and Servicing for guidance in assessing component
condition and for performing fault diagnosis.

SECTION 2 Procedure
CHAPTER 4 - DISMANTLING

SECTION ‘I - Preparation

WARNING

All work carried out on Lucas equipment


must be compliant with Service Bulletin
308, Recommendations on the Safe
Handling and use of Lucas Bryce
Equipment.

WARNING

Viton ‘0’ rings are used in all Lucas Pumps


and injectors. If subjected to high
temperatures (>315%), these rings
produce extremely corrosive acid.
Avoid contact with any rings which
look suspect, or from equipment which
may have been close to an engine fire.
1 .I Workshop cleanliness, when dismantling fuel injection equipment is essential to ensure subsequent trouble
-free operation. The workbench must be thoroughly cleaned before commencing work and all dirt, grit, iron filings
and other foreign materials removed. Clean containers should be provided in which to place components.

1.2 A thoroughly cleaned vessel holding a supply of fresh, clean water-free, light fuel oil or injector test oil should
be available for washing dismantled parts. Components should be assembled wet. It is permissible to use
non-fluffing paper during cleaning processes. Never use paraffin or kerosene and never use woven cloths or
wipers.

1.3 The components of each individual injector should be kept together during dismantling.

1.4 A brass wire brush will be found useful for cleaning all non-mating surfaces and a scraper is suitable for
clearing small carbon deposits on the nozzle nut clamping shoulder of the injector.

CAUTION

The use of kerosene (paraffin) is not recommended for washing parts as it may contain water which
can cause corrosion.

CAUTiON

During the dismantling operation, the components of each individual injector should be kept entirely
separate from other injector parts and it is especially important that the nozzle needle valves are only fitted
to bodies with which they were originally mated.

1.2 Refer to Chapter 5 for cleaning procedure.

1.3 Refer to Chapter 9 for the tooling required for Injector dismantling.

1
SECTION 2 - Procedure

Refer to Fig 2A and 28 as appropriate

2.1 Soak the nozzle nut and nozzle assembly of the injector in carbon softening fluid for 24 hours prior to
dismantling.

2.2 After placing the complete injector in a large, securely anchored vice, unscrew the Nozzle Nut (1) carefully by
undoing the nut using a torque wrench (and multiplier if supplied) and sockets. Undo the nut l/8 of a turn tap the
nozzle assembly with the nozzle drift (75/792) to break the carbon seal and then tighten back up. Continue with this
process until no resistance of the nozzle nut sticking to the nozzle can be felt. Remove the Nozzle Assembly.

2.3 If the Nozzle is stuck tight in the Nozzle Nut then it may be necessary to drive it out using the nozzle drift,
ensuring that the needle valve has been removed beforehand. The use of this tool will prevent damage to the
Nozzle tip.

2.4 Removal of the Nozzle Nut and Nozzle allows the Transfer Block (2), Thrust Cap (3), Spring-Injector (4),
Spring Plate-Upper (5) and adjusting Shims (6) to be withdrawn from the Holder Body (7).

SECTION 1 - Carbon

1 .l Remove carbon deposits by carefully brushing them with a brass wire brush in a bath of Water Displacing Fluid.
after removing carbon thoroughly wash components in clean test oil.

1.2 Prior to the nozzle nut being removed it is recommended that if the nozzle and nut being removed are coated
with carbon they are immersed in a Carbon Softening Fluid for 24 hours. This will ease removal of the nozzle nut
and prevent undue strain being placed on internal components.

SECTION 2 - Component Parts

2.1 Components may be washed in clean light fuel oil or test oil. The nozzle clamping shoulder and the joint
washer face on the nut should be carefully cleaned with a brass wire brush.

2.2 The sealing face between the holder body, transfer block and nozzle body must be clean flat and smooth.

SECTION 5 Shims
CHAPTER 6 - EXAMINATION AND SERVICING

SECTION 1 - Introduction

1.1 Prior to examination the Injector and its Nozzle must be thoroughly cleaned in accordance with Chapter 5.

SECTION 2 - Sealing Faces

2.1 The sealing face between the holder body, transfer block and nozzle body must be perfectly clean, flat and
smooth. Should any of the high pressure sealing faces be bruised or chipped then the component should be
replaced.

SECTION 3 - Nozzle

3.1 Take the nozzle and withdraw the needle from the body.

3.2 The guide surface of the needle should be clean with an even finish and there should not be any heavily
scratched or heavily polished areas. A used nozzle will often have an area of carbon deposits on the needle tip
which can be removed with a brass wire brush. If, however, any of the above defects are apparent and subsequent
treatment should prove unsuccessful, the complete nozzle must be replaced.

3.3 Next, allow the needle and nozzle body to soak for a short time in clean test oil, after which brush the needle
stem and seat with a brass wire brush.

CAUTION

The nozzle bodies and needles are mated pairs and cannot be interchanged with other bodies or
needles. Mixing of needles may give a restricted lift which will prevent correct functioning of the nozzle and
the complete injector system.

3.4 After removing the nozzle body from the test oil inspect the joint face to be certain that it is not scratched or
damaged. Clean the fuel feed holes by pushing a suitable sized rod down to the fuel chamber, being careful not to
scratch the joint face.

3.5 Take a fuel chamber scraper and insert it into the nozzle body fuel chamber. Press sideways and, by rotary
motion, remove any carbon or other deposits which may be present. After this, the seat cleaning tool should be
used by inserting it in the same way and pressing downwards with rotary movement. The seat should be examined
under a strong light to ensure that all traces of foreign matter have been removed.

3.6 To clean the spray holes, a pricking tool is required which comprises a holder fitted with suitable sized
cleaning wire, the size of which will depend upon the diameter of the hole to be cleaned. When the carbon in the
holes is soft it is simple to probe the holes with the tool, but should the deposit be too hard for this to be done then
I the complete nozzle must be replaced. This procedure is advised as an inexperienced operator is very liable to
break the wire in the spray hole and subsequently result in scrapping of the nozzle.

3.7 Finally, wash both the needle and nozzle body thoroughly in clean light fuel oil or test oil before fitting the
parts together, in the rinsed condition. If the needle is partially withdrawn from the body and released it should
return smoothly without sticking.

3.6 Check the needle thrust face for signs of damage. If the face is no longer flat, or free movement of the needle
is restricted by any damage, then the nozzle must be replaced.

SECTION 4 - Injector Spring

4.1 The minimum permitted free length of the 52/554 spring used on the 99/555T and 99/557T injectors is
54,5mm.

4.2 Measure the freelength of the disassembled Injector spring. If the freelength is less than that specified, fit a
new spring. Replace any springs showing signs of broken coils, corrosion, pitting, collapse or distortion, the latter
being indicated by flats worn on the outside diameter of the coils.

SECTION 5 - Shims

5.1 Replace any fractured or badly fretted shims with new ones. Refer to Chapter 11 Illustrated Parts Catalogue.

CHAPTER 7 - ASSEMBLY

SECTION 1 - Preparation

WARNING

All work carried out on Lucas equipment


must be compliant with Service Bulletin
308, Recommendations on the Safe
Handling and use of Lucas Bryce
Equipment.

1.1 When preparing to assemble fuel injection equipment, the bench on which the work is to be done should be
thoroughly cleaned, particular care being taken that all iron filings, dirt, grit and any other foreign material have
been removed. The bench should be securely anchored to the floor. It is also necessary to have a thoroughly
cleaned container available holding a supply of fresh, clean fuel oil for washing the components.

CAUTION

‘The use of kerosene’(paraffin) is not recommended for washing parts as it may contain water which
can cause corrosion!

CAUTION

During the assembly operation, the components of each individual injector should be kept entirely
separate from other injector parts and it is especially important that the nozzle needles valve are only fitted
to bodies with which they were originally mated.

1.2 Refer to Chapter 5 for cleaning procedure.

1.3 Refer to Chapter 9 for the tooling required for Injector assembly.

SECTION 2 - Procedure

2.1 Wash all parts in clean light fuel or injector test oil as they are assembled. Assembly follows the reverse
sequence of the instructions for dismantling.

2.2 First, replace Shims (7) ensuring the thinnest Shims are not in contact with the Spring-Injector (2). Next
replace the Spring Plate-Upper (3), Spring-Injector and Thrust Cap (4). Insert the Dowel-Holder Body (5) into the
Nozzle Holder Body (6) and replace the Transfer Block (7). Add the Dowel-Transfer Block (8) then the Nozzle (9).

2.3 Before fitting the Nozzle Nut (70) apply the lubricant “Gulf Anti Seize Compound 2” to the thread on the
Holder Body and to the Nozzle Nut/Body clamping shoulder, ensuring that the paste fills the externally visible gap
. between the Nut and Nozzle. This will ease removal of the Nozzle Nut in future and reduce the stress placed on
some internal components when removing the Nut. It is important that no lubricant gets onto the sealing faces of
any components.

2.4 Fit the Nozzle Nut and tighten by hand as far as possible, making sure that the Transfer Block and Dowels
are correctly located. Complete the tightening to the torque value given in Chapter 1. As the faces close, metal to
metal tightening should be felt to go solid suddenly.
CAUTION

It is essential to use a correct torque wrench and socket. To not do so may result in over-torquing of
the nozzle nut.

CHAPTER 8 - TESTING
SECTION 1 - Introduction

All work carried out on Lucas equipment


must be compliant with Service Bulletin
308, Recommendations on the Safe
Handling and use of Lucas Bryce
Equipment.

WARNING

Viton ‘0’ rings are used in all Lucas Pumps


and injectors. If subjected to high
temperatures (>315%), these rings
produce extremely corrosive acid.
Avoid contact with any rings which
look suspect, or from equipment which
may have been close to an engine fire.
CAUTION

Fuel oil should, preferably, be purchased in large quantities and stored in covered twin tanks
connected in such a way that one serves as a settling tank. (galvanised containers should never be used).
The fuel oil should be drawn through large-capacity filters to the engine supply tank. The engine tank
should be adequately filled at all times to obviate moisture condensation: it should not be completely
emptied (other than for periodic cleaning) as the dregs usually contain harmful impurities.

1.1 Refer to Chapter 9 for details of the Tooling and Test Equipment required for Injector Testing.

1.2 Refer to Chapter 1 for details of the test oil to be used for Injector/Nozzle testing.

1.3 The test oil temperature during testing must be 21+2 degrees C.

1.4 Connect the assembled injector to the Injector Pop Test Unit using the High Pressure Pipe specified in
Chapter 9.

WARNING
When testing injectors ensure that the fuel
spray is directed away from the person.
Keep hands away from the spray, which
can penetrate the skin and cause injury.
If oil penetrates the skin, prompt medical
attention will be required to drain the oil,
to remove any foreign body, and to
prevent infection

WARNING
Use goggles or similar eye protection
if the spray is exposed. Do not permit an
injector on test to direct its spray towards

1
a heat source or naked flame.
Oil in spray form is highly flammable.
Ensure that the room or space where
injectors are tested is well ventilated and
that an efficient extractor is used to
remove oil spray.

SECTION 2 - Release Pressure

2.1 With the gauge cock open and while still pumping note the pressure at which the nozzle begins to spray. This
is the release pressure, or nozzle opening pressure.

2.2 The release pressure on a newly serviced injector should be set to 376-383 bar (5450-5556 psi). Removal of
the nozzle nut and internal components may be necessary to adjust the shimplate to obtain the correct setting.

2.3 If the release pressure is being checked on an unserviced injector then it should be within +lO% of the
specified setting.

NOTE

The amount of shim required can be calculated on the basis that 0,lmm shim = 8,2 bar (119psi).

2.4 After reassembly and connection to the test unit operate the pump a few times to ensure that the
components have settled and then recheck the release pressure.

SECTION 3 - Spray Form

3.1 The spray from each hole should be atomised, of regular form and free from ragged edges. On no account
must oil squirt out in a continuous stream or jet. All sprays must be equal and correctly spaced. However, good
atomisation may not be apparent when testing the injector on a small hand test pump unit. If the nozzle discharges
intermittently and break up of fuel in the spray jets occurs then, in conjunction with the high pumping velocity of the
engine the injector will perform safisfactorily when it is operating on the engine.

3.2 If the nozzle performance cannot be satisfactorily restored then a new nozzle assembly must be fitted.

SECTION 4 - Seat Leakage

4.1 Operate the test pump until oil is discharged from the nozzle and set the release pressure, as detailed in the
‘Release Pressure’ section. Discharge the nozzle again and wipe dry. Raise the pressure to approximately 10 bar
(15Opsi) below the release pressure and hold for 10 seconds. After this time, the nozzle tip should be dry if the
nozzle is new. However a nozzle that has run many hours may leak slightly and, if so, the leakage must not be
sufficient to form a droplet.

4.2 Ensure that there is no pressure within the injector prior to checking seat leakage with the finger tips or
wiping the nozzle tip dry.

SECTION 5 - Back Leakage Specification

5.1 With the test fluid pressure raised above 250 bar (3615psi) the pressure fall off rate between 250 and 200
bar (3615psi and 2890psi) must be between IO-20 seconds.

SECTION 2 - Storage

2.1 Once the injector has been serviced always fit a brass or plastic cap over any threads, the exposed nozzle
tip and the two backleak holes. This will prevent the ingress of dirt and also provide protection.

2.2 All equipment should be kept in dry, clean conditions and adequately covered to prevent the accumulation of
dust and dirt.

2.3 Nozzles should be kept in their individual wrapping and plastic container until required for use. If an unused
nozzle is kept in store for more than TWO YEARS, it is necessary to replenish the oil film between the needle and
nozzle body. This should be repeated at intervals of TWO YEARS until the nozzle is put into service. To do this,
unpack the nozzle, remove the needle and carefully flush and clean the nozzle body and needle in clean injector
test oil; refit the needle and repack the nozzle.

2.4 Only injector test oil which contains a corrosive inhibitor should be used. Fuel oil or paraffin must not be
used.

One Service Bulletin has been issued for this equipment. Please select the required document
from the following index:

Number Issue Date

Service Builetin 298 June 7996


SERVICE E3ULLETIN
SUBJECT

Fuel Injection Equipment

PRODUCT

Nozzles - All ‘T’ size assemblies

APPLICATION

Applies to all relevant applications with ‘T’ size nozzle assemblies

REASON

This non modification Service Bulletin is issued to clarify Lucas recommendations on ‘T’ size
nozzle repair. This instruction is issued in response to customer requests for information
clarifying the Lucas policy on nozzle reconditioning.

COMPLIANCE ~

The subject recommendations are strongly advised to all distributors, agents and engine
manufacturers.

‘T SIZE NOZZLE REPAIR

In order to ensure the optimum performance of diesel engines in service, particularly with
respect to fuel consumption and emission control, it is vital that nozzle efficiency should be
maintained.

The life expectancy of nozzles in service varies significantly and is dependent on the application
and the operating conditions which apply. Engine manufacturers will normally issue nozzle life
recommendations to operators which will normally be based on specific life assessment data in
conjunction with overall service experience.

Historically it has been common practice in the industry for nozzle repair to be carried out by
distributors on equipment returned from service following the practices laid down by the original
equipment manufacturer (Lucas Bryce).

More recent experience indicates that it is progressively becoming more commonplace for
nozzles to be replaced other than repaired. With emission control becoming a major
environmental issue this trend is likely to continue. A comparison of the costs and risks involved
between nozzle replacement and repair will result in replacement being the optimum choice for
the future.

This policy reflects the inability to rework nozzles to an ‘as new’ standard and will ensure the
following:

0 Optimum emission control

1
0 Reduced fuel consumption
0 Minimum engine down time
0 Eliminate need to train maintenance personnel on nozzle repair techniques
l Economic turn around of injectors to ‘as new’ condition

As a direct consequence of the changing cost and operational factors which impact on the
ongoing support philosophy adopted by Distributors and Operators, Lucas have now
re-assessed their associated recommendations accordingly.

It is clear that the reworking of nozzles after service use is at best a limited exercise which does
not bring the equipment up to the ‘as new’ condition. Most significantly hole wear, distortion,
erosion and mouth deterioration are not rectified with inevitable degrading of combustion
efficiency when refitted to the engine.

SPARE NOZZLE PROCUREMENT

It is strongly recommended that only genuine Lucas parts are used during the rework of Lucas
Fuel Injection Equipment. Rigid compliance with this recommendation will ensure that safety
performance and reliability requirements are satisfied.

The use of ‘pirate’ or ‘bogus’ parts during rework introduces considerable risk. The major
considerations are stated below:-

0 Non Lucas parts may have been manufactured with incorrect material specifications
resulting in
likely premature failure in service.

0 Processing, such as heat treatment, is very often compromised on bogus parts


manufacture thereby
risking avoidable expensive consequential engine damage.

0 Modifications will not normally be incorporated in non Lucas spares resulting in possible
degraded
performance and service life.

0 Lucas will not support warranty claims or provide technical assistance on equipment which
has been
serviced with parts which are not genuine items.

RECOMMENDATION

The ‘T’ size nozzle repair policy which is now recommended to customers by way of this Service
Bulletin is as follows:-

Lucas recommend that in future ‘T’ size nozzles are not repaired, reworked or overhauled
after service use.

Assembling a fuel injector to the engine Ruston RK270

Introduction

An injector is fitted to each cylinder head and its purpose


is to discharge accurately metered quantities of liquid
fuel from the injection pump into the engine combustion
chamber, suitably atomised and distributed through the
air charge to promote rapid and complete combustion.

Fig.1 Remove the central fuel pipe cover

As each injector makes several hundred separate


injections each minute, in conditions of high temperature
and pressure, it is essential that regular and careful
maintenance is carried out in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions.

Fig.2 Release the high pressure feed pipe nut

Removal

1. Remove the central fuel pipe cover (Fig.1).

2. Release the high pressure feed pipe nut (Fig.2)


and remove the pipe (Fig.3).

Fuel control mechanism Ruston RK270

Introduction

The governor operates the fuel shafts through a linkage


system incorporating a maximum fuel stop and a hand
operated overriding control.

The quantity of fuel delivered by the injection pumps is


controlled by the rack operating levers fixed to the
control shafts (Fig.1). Each of these levers carries a fuel
rack adjusting screw. Turning the fuel rack adjusting
screw clockwise increases the amount of fuel delivered
and turning the screw anti clockwise decreases the
amount of fuel delivered.
Fig.1 Rack operating lever fixed to the control shaft.
The fuel limiter (Fig.2) is incorporated in the air start
system to prevent over fuelling of the engine on starting. ‘A’ Bank fuel pump
During operation the air cylinder restricts the fuel rack control shaft
movement to 50% of rack travel.

stop is set on test to limit the amount of fuel delivered to
a quantity slightly above that required for maximum

starting and normal running, pivots about the end of the
control shaft and in this position, permits the governor to Fig.3 The adjusting screw (A) for the maximum fuel stop.
exercise control over the linkage. This, in turn, rotates
the shafts to open or close the fuel pump racks as
necessary. As the hand control is returned to the Stop
position (Fig.4), a dog on the base of the lever engages
with a similar dog on the fuel control lever, thus turning
the shafts in the decrease fuel direction.

Engine shutdown by hand control or operation of the


overspeed trip is made possible by the inclusion of a
telescopic link in the governor linkage.

Setting the linkage

1. Disconnect the fuel control linkage at the rod


end connection to the governor output shaft
lever (Fig.5(B)) and prop open the linkage so
that the Balance Point gauge can be inserted
between the rack collar and the body of the fuel
pump nearest the governor.
Fig.6 Check the racks with the balance gauge (C).
2. (Fig.6(C)) Check the racks of all the remaining
pumps with the Balance Point gauge and adjust
as necessary. It is important that the gauge is a
light sliding fit; if any force is used, the control
shaft will be deflected and a false reading will
result.

NOTE: On certain installations, it may be that the


Balance Point is outside the site load range in such
installations the maximum fuel stop must be
unscrewed as follows.

3. Before unscrewing the stop, mark it to place


(Fig.7) and open the control linkage until
restrained by the stop.

4. Measure the distance between the rack collar


and the body of the fuel pump nearest the Fig.7 Mark the maximum fuel stop to place
governor. This measurement will be used later
when the maximum fuel stop is restored to its
original setting.

5. On completion of adjustments at the Balance

uniform for both banks.

6. Any discrepancy must be corrected by


adjustment of the control linkage (Fig.8(A)). If
this results in the No Fuel setting being
exceeded on any cylinder, the control linkage
should be adjusted at the governor (Fig.8(B)).

Induction/exhaust system Ruston RK270

Exhaust system

Exhaust gas leaves the engine via twin ABB TPL 65 turbochargers, with suitable adaptors fitted to the
turbocharger outlets. The exhaust ducting, silencers, etc. should be sized to ensure that the back pressure
applied to the turbochargers does not exceed 300 mm WG.

Flexible bellows are provided to compensate for lateral and axial movement of the flexibly mounted engine and
engine thermal expansion relative to the exhaust ducting and to ensure that these movements do not induce
undue stresses onto the turbochargers. It is important to ensure that the exhaust ducting is supported as close as
possible to the bellows.

Combustion air system

Air is drawn into the engine for combustion via combined air filter/silencers mounted on the turbochargers. The air
is compressed by the turbocharger and is fed into the air chest through two fresh water cooled air coolers.

The pressure drop across the filter/silencers is approximately 50 mm WG. It is important to ensure that the total
air intake side pressure drop does not exceed 200 mm WG.

Lubricating oil system

Lubricating oil is circulated through the engine by twin engine driven gear pumps, with pressure controlled by a
relief valve fitted at the pump outlet pipe. Before entering the engine the oil passes through the oil section of the
central plate cooler and then through a simplex oil filter. A differential pressure transmitter is fitted across the filter
to provide indication should the filter become blocked. Oil temperature is controlled by means of a wax element
O
thermostatic valve fitted across the cooler (nominal setting 85 C).

A motor driven priming pump is supplied to provide a continuous flow of oil through the engine prior to starting.

All RK270 engines are provided with a motor driven extractor fan to be fitted in the ship’s crankcase breather
piping. This fan is used to create a slight vacuum in the crankcase chamber. This vacuum is regulated by means
of a butterfly valve to a value of 12mm WG with the engine running at full load. The crankcase fan includes an
integral Coalescer filter to remove large oil droplets, which may then be piped to a dirty oil tank.

Lubricating oil specification – high speed marine engines Ruston RK270

General requirements

The selection of the correct lubricating oil to suit the rated output, fuel type and the operating duty of the engine is
most important to ensure minimum wear, minimum combustion chamber deposits and satisfactory oil life.
Recommended products will be manufactured by reputable companies from high quality base stocks by modern
refinery processes and fortified with modern additives to give the desired level of detergency, dispersancy,
oxidation resistance and alkalinity reserve and other properties.

The base oil should impart good viscosity - temperature characteristics to ensure satisfactory cold starting ability
whilst having good lubricating properties at operating temperature.

Mineral or synthetic lubricants

By far the greatest majority of commercial lubricants are petroleum based. These represent the most cost
effective solution to most lubrication requirements and are readily available worldwide. Synthetic lubricants were
developed for particularly harsh environments and are inherently more expensive. In some severe applications
they may economically replace conventional petroleum based lubricants in operation long term. Seal and gasket
compatibility is generally good but MAN B&W Diesel Ltd, Ruston should be advised if use of a synthetic lubricant
is considered.

Branded lubricating oils

Individual oil companies recommend suitable branded lubricants to meet the requirements of standard
engines, fuel types and engine applications. A list of brand names is given at the end of this instruction, which
applies generally to products available in Western Europe including the United Kingdom. In the case of marine
lubricants the same brand names will often be marketed worldwide with the same specification. For industrial
applications and some marine applications the oil companies usually supply a local market and care must be
taken as the same brand names may have a different specification in different parts of the world. The list of
branded oils should therefore be used as a basis for selecting an equivalent product, in conjunction with the local
oil supplier, which also conforms to the general performance requirements outlined later in this instruction.

Viscosity grade

Lubricating oils formulated specifically for marine duty are generally monograde type either SAE30 or SAE40.
Some high TBN oils are only available in SAE40 grade. Multi-purpose oils are often of multigrade type and are
mainly used for certain applications where they maybe preferred either for availability reasons or for some
performance feature such as higher dispersancy and/or detergency. The viscosity grade generally recommended
for multigrade oils is SAE15W-40. However some oils listed in the tables have a viscosity grade of SAE10W-40
and these are also acceptable.

Oil sump temperature up to 85OC

Any of the above viscosity grades is generally acceptable. However when cold starting below 10 OC without oil
sump heaters is anticipated, either a monograde SAE30 or a multigrade oil should be specified.

M7I02004.DOC Page 2 of 5 Section I02


Lubricating oil specification – high speed marine engines Ruston RK270

Oil sump temperature above 85OC

O
Either a monograde SAE40 or multigrade is generally acceptable. However when cold starting below 10 C
without sump heaters is anticipated a multigrade oil should be specified.

Performance classification

Various classification methods exist to define the performance of a lubricating oil in a range of standard engine
and laboratory tests. To meet a specified performance level major suppliers submit representative samples of
branded oils for approval tests in accordance with a standardised procedure. Some smaller oil blenders supply
products meeting the same performance classification by blending a proprietary additive package at a specified
dosage rate with a suitable base oil without the requirement to carry out approval tests on the final product. In the
case of a reputable blender the resulting product should be fully acceptable. However, the base oil does give
important properties to the oil and the performance of the complete lubricant is the deciding factor in selecting a
product.

The American Petroleum Institute (API) engine service classification system is divided into an ‘S’ series covering
engine oils sold in service stations for passenger cars and light trucks (mainly gasoline engines) and a ‘C’ series
for oils used in commercial, farm, construction and off highway vehicles (mainly diesel engines).An oil can meet
more than one classisication e.g. API/SF, CD. Heavy Duty Oil Specifications have been issued over the years
mainly by US government agencies and whilst many are now obsolete they may still be used to describe general
quality levels. The minimum performance level required for all current Ruston engines is API CD or
MIL-L-2104C. Oils designed for API CD service were introduced in 1955 and provide protection from bearing
corrosion and from high temperature deposits in diesel engines which may use a wide range of fuel quality
including high sulphur content. The service classification CE which was introduced for turbocharged or
supercharged heavy duty engines became official in 1987 and covers all previous API CD requirements together
with further tests covering oxidation control and piston deposits on highly rated high speed diesel engines with
particular application to multigrade lubricants.

The obsolete US Military specification MIL-L-2104C issued in 1970, covers engine oils for all types of
reciprocating internal combustion engines of both spark ignition and compression ignition types in tactical service.
It is equivalent to API/CD and SC service classifications. MIL-L-2104D specification which was issued in 1983
represents an upgrading of MIL-L-2104C in relation to gasoline engines and two-stroke diesel performance and
also covers multigrade SAE15W-40 for the first time.

Lubricating oils meeting API/CD or MIL-L-2104C performance classification will have adequate levels of
dispersancy to hold products of combustion (soot) in a finely divided suspension between oil changes without the
risk of these sooty insolubles being deposited in the engine crankcase, rocker box etc., or causing oil filter
blockage. Oils for industrial engines will generally have been developed for automotive heavy duty engines and
have a high dispersancy. When it is required to centrifuge the oil to extend the oil drain periods or when residual
or similar fuels are to be used which may increase the likelyhood of soot formation, a lubricating oil having a
slightly lower dispersancy may be appropriate. Marine lubricating oils will usually be of this type. Industrial type
oils may be recommended by the oil supplier to meet a particular application.

Total base number

The Total Base Number (T.B.N.) in units of mg KOH/g is a measure of the total alkalinity of the lubricating oil. Part
of this is attributable to the detergent/dispersant additives in the oil which are alkaline but may not give any
protection against acid products of combustion. Most fuels contain sulphur or other elements, which form acid
compounds in combination with oxygen and water vapour during combustion and additional alkalinity reserve is

M7I02004.DOC Page 3 of 5 Section I02


Lubricating oil specification – high speed marine engines Ruston RK270

necessary to protect the engine against corrosion and corrosive wear. The minimum TBN requirement is related
to the sulphur, or other corrosive element, level in the fuel in relation to required oil life and operating conditions.

The recommended minimum TBN of a new oil measured by the ASTM D2896 method is given below.

Fuel Sulphur Minimum


type content TBN (D2896)
% m/m mg KOH/g

Distillate up to 0.5 12 to 15
gas oil 0.5 to 0.8 15 to 20

The lubricating oil requirements of engines required to operate on fuels outside these specifications will be
considered individually.

SULPHATED ASH

Sulphated ash is a measure of the detergent additive content of a new lubricating oil where these are based on
metallic compounds.

The value of the sulphated ash may be a general indication of the additive treatment level (except where ashless
additives are used). For liquid fuelled engines the level is not really significant where the additive treatment is
appropriate to the engine duty and fuel sulphur. Excessive combustion chamber deposits may result if the value of
sulphated ash is higher than necessary.

Lubricating oil condition monitoring Ruston RK270

General guidelines

The maintenance of good lubricating oil quality by the operator is as important to continued satisfactory engine
operation as the selection of the new oil. It is best achieved by taking regular oil samples preferably with the
engine running with the operating conditions stabilised. The oil sample must then be analysed by a reputable
laboratory to determine the condition of the oil and obtain a recommendation for further use. The oil supplier will
usually have this capability or alternatively an independent laboratory may be used.

Lubricating oil samples should be taken initially every 200 hours and this period may be extended to 500 hours or
monthly, whichever occurs first, when stable oil analysis results are obtained.

The oil analysis will consist of two parts. The first part covers the results of physical tests e.g. viscosity, water
content, fuel dilution, total base number and total insolubles plus any additional tests to investigate a particular
problem. The second part gives the results of spectrochemical analysis, the mass of each element detected being
given in parts per million (ppm).

The interpretation of the oil analysis report requires knowledge of the properties of new oil to the same
specification and the build up of experience with the engine over time. It is more important to be able to detect
sudden inexplicable changes in the measured parameters than to be over concerned about a gradual change
over the life of the oil. It is difficult to give definite rejection limits because these will vary between different oils.
The oil supplier or the laboratory which carries out the analysis will advise on the suitability of the oil for further
use. Obviously if any important parameter is changing quickly it may be necessary to increase the frequency of
sampling.

The following guide lines are intended to help explain the meaning of the terms used and show how they may be
interpreted to best advantage.

Viscosity

The viscosity will normally be given in centistoke (cSt) units of kinematic viscosity at a temperature of either 40 OC
or 100OC. Other units and reference temperatures are sometimes used. However it is more important to be able
to detect any increase or decrease in viscosity compared with new oil. An increase in viscosity may be an
indication of contamination of the oil either from sand or dust ingested with the combustion air or from sooty
insolubles resulting from incomplete combustion of the fuel. An increase may also result from thermal
degradation of the oil itself as a result of oxidation or nitration. A decrease in viscosity would probably be the
result of dilution by fuel oil. It is also possible for water contamination to cause an increase in viscosity as a result
of oil/water emulsion being formed. A significant change in viscosity in either direction is very important as it can
effect the load carrying ability of the bearings etc. Results may be considered satisfactory if they are within +/-30%
of the new oil. Rejection limits would be higher than this but other factors would also have to be taken into
account when deciding whether the oil should be changed.

Contamination by sand or dust may be indicated by an increase in the silicon level detected by spectrochemical
analysis. However silicon compounds are sometimes used as anti-foaming additives in the oil and therefore it is
important to compare the measurement with the new oil and look for trends.

If two oils of different viscosity are mixed in the engine the resulting viscosity will lie between the two but only if
the oils are compatible. If they are incompatible the resulting viscosity could be higher or lower. A simple test to
check the compatibility is to shake the two oils together in a test tube and leave it to stand for several hours. If
they are incompatible the two oils will begin to separate.

M7I03001.DOC Page 2 of 6 Section I03


Lubricating oil condition monitoring Ruston RK270

Water content

Traces of water in the lubricating oil are inevitable, especially in marine systems, coming from a variety of sources
i.e. coolers, water pump glands, cylinder liner seals and from condensation. However excessive water may be
detrimental to the additives in the oil, some of which are water-soluble and may cause emulsions to be formed,
which can lead to bearing failure. Water can be detected down to 0.05% by volume in the oil but any value less
than 0.2% is not significant. Action will usually be indicated if the value reaches 0.5%.

Water type

The source of the water can often be detected from the results of spectrochemical analysis. Seawater
contamination may be suspected if the level of sodium (Na) increases. However, sodium borate and sodium
chromate may be used as an additive to the fresh water therefore an accompanying increase in boron (B) or
chromium (Cr) would indicate a leak from the fresh water system. Sodium is also found in some lubricating oil
additive packages therefore comparison with the new oil is required:- lubricating oil and glycol are NOT
compatible. The oil should be checked for glycol content monthly by using a test method recommended by the
lubricant supplier whenever water is suspected in the oil and glycol anti-freeze is in use.

Flash point

The flash point of a conventional mineral oil is typically about 210OC whilst a synthetic oil could have a flash point
of approximately 260OC. A distillate fuel oil will have a value in the range typically 55OC to 66OC whilst a residual
fuel can have a flash point of over 150OC conversely a crude oil or other volatile fuel may have a value below
55OC.

The measured flash point of the used lubricating oil can therefore give a good indication of fuel contamination if a
light fuel is being used. For a mineral oil, contamination may be considered significant if the flash point falls below
180OC and at 160OC consideration should be given to draining and renewing the oil charge.

Fuel dilution can cause misleading conclusions to be drawn from viscosity measurement if the viscosity reduction
offsets the increase due to other causes. Flash point can not give a useful indication of the presence of a high
viscosity residual fuel. Other indications such as vanadium contamination may be seen in the spectrochemical
analysis.

Total base number

The TBN is a measure of the alkalinity of the used lubricating oil. There are several methods in use involving
titration with either perchloric or hydrochloric acid, the results are expressed in mg KOH/g i.e. the equivalent
amount of potassium hydroxide per gram of oil. The ASTM D2896 method is the most precise and is the most
easily applied to automated analysis procedures and therefore favoured by most laboratories for routine testing
and is most suitable for new oils. However this method uses a stronger acid which reacts with some components
in a used oil which other methods do not detect and which are not reflected in the ability of the oil to neutralise
acids. The laboratory will take this factor into account when making their recommendation for an oil change based
on TBN depletion.

The other methods in use are ASTM D4739* and ASTM D664* both of which have practical drawbacks and are
less precise. The value of TBN by these methods is generally 1.5 to 3.0 mg KOH base number lower than the
previous method. When using the D2896 method with used lubricating oils the effective alkalinity of the oil may be
fully depleted even when there is apparently some in reserve and in exceptional cases one of these other
methods may be advised to give better information on the true alkalinity reserve.

M7I03001.DOC Page 3 of 6 Section I03


Lubricating oil condition monitoring Ruston RK270

The rate of TBN depletion will depend on the sulphur content of the fuel relative to the fuel and lubricating oil
consumption and also the quantity of oil in the sump. It is usual for the TBN of a new charge of oil to fall gradually
during operation and may reach equilibrium value. The use of a fairly high TBN oil with a low sulphur fuel with a
moderate oil consumption often would result in an indefinite oil life if TBN was the only criterion for rejection.

It is very important that there is an adequate reserve of alkalinity in the oil at all times if corrosion and corrosive
wear of piston rings, cylinder liners, bearing materials and valve stems etc. is to be avoided. The TBN must be
maintained above a minimum safe value either by draining and renewing the oil charge or, where appropriate, by
adding fresh make-up oil. A guide to the minimum values of TBN for new oils and for used oils measured by the
methods given above is tabulated for a range of typical sulphur level in distillate and residual fuels (See table
below).

*ASTM D4739 has been replaced by ASTM D664

ASTM D664 is principally used to determine Total Acid Number (TAN) but may be used for TBN evaluation.

NOTE A special measurement to ASTM D664 or D4739 will normally only be required where the routine test to
D2896 falls within or below the TBN range shown.

Total insolubles

The total insolubles value (sometimes referred to as pentane insolubles) is a measure of the mass percentage of
all insoluble matter including combustion soot, wear products, particulate comtaminations e.g. dust, sand,
insoluble additives and the products of oil oxidation. The maximum allowable value will depend in part on the
capability of the oil to hold the sooty insolubles in a finely divided suspension. An oil with a high dispersancy may
hold up to 4% by mass without the risk of crankcase sludging or filter blockage. However an oil of lower additive
treatment or one specifically designed for centrifuge treatment may be limited to a lower value. The laboratory will
advise the safe rejection criteria for the particular oil.

Sooty insolubles

Techniques are available to distinguish insolubles resulting from combustion soot from other contaminants. This
can give useful information relating to the efficiency of the fuel injection equipment, turbocharging system etc.

M7I03001.DOC Page 4 of 6 Section I03


Lubricating oil condition monitoring Ruston RK270

Toluene insolubles

This measurement would not normally be given in a routine oil analysis. However it may be used to indicate the
amount of oxidised lubricating oil in the sample and give useful additional information. The amount of oxidised oil
(which is toluene soluble) is obtained by subtracting the toluene insolubles from the total insolubles. Typically this
value should not exceed 1% by mass.

Spectrochemical analysis

Up to nineteen elements may be identified and measured on the direct reading spectrometer and given in the oil
analysis report as parts per million (ppm) by mass. Correctly interpreted this data can provide a positive means of
identifying any wear in critical parts of the engine and other information which can give an early warning of
operational problems.

The additive package in modern lubricating oils contains various metallic compounds which will show up in the
spectro-analysis as quite high values in ppm. The oil companies may change the additive constituents from time
to time therefore comparisons should only be made with new oil samples of the same or recent batch. Oil
additives comprise Phosphorus (P), Zinc (Zn), Calcium (Ca), Barium (Ba), Magnesium (Mg), Molybdenum (Mo),
Silicon (Si) amongst others. The balance of the additive elements is one method of identifying the classification of
an oil. Phosphorus and zinc are anti-wear elements. Calcium, barium and magnesium are the dispersants and
detergents. Silicon may be used as an anti-foaming agent.

The following table lists the elements which may be detected in spectrochemical analysis although not all will be
given where they are not relevant in a particular application. Against each element a list of probable sources of
the material is given but this is not necessarily complete and will depend on many factors.

A range of typical values is given and where appropriate a suggested maximum level. These are given for
guidance and must not be taken as rejection limits or necessarily as safe values but only to build up experience
with a particular application.

NOTE: Small amounts of copper and molybdenum compounds may be used during the assembly of a new or
rebuilt engine. Copper plating is also used in the hardening process of some engine components subject to wear.
These sources may result in higher than normal values of Cu and Mo during initial operation.

Maintenance

The only maintenance necessary is to ensure that the


suction pipes and the strainer are thoroughly cleaned
and this is best done at the heavy overhaul period when
the engine is dismantled.

H-Interval

Clean the lubricating oil suction strainer pipes and Fig.2 The strainers are secured by bolts, washers and
strainer. strip washers to the bedplate.

Cleaning

When the engine has been dismantled down to the


stage when the crankshaft has been removed, the
strainer is accessible and should be dismantled and
cleaned as follows:-

1. Bend back the strip washers and remove the four


bolts securing the strainer to the bedplate and the
screws securing the angled pipe to the flange of
the main suction pipes (Fig.3).

Pressure relief valve Ruston RK270

Introduction

The lubricating oil pressure relief valve (Fig.1) is fitted to


ensure that the oil pressure in the system does not
exceed the designed maximum. It is mounted at the free
end of the bedplate.

Operation

Oil from the pump enters the inlet chamber and passes
Fig.1 Lubricating oil pressure relief valve
on to the main system.

A proportional part of the oil passes through the


metering hole in the body and exerts a pressure within
the annulus formed by the body and the plunger.

When the oil pressure exceeds the nominal value for the
system it forces down the plunger against the action of
the spring and allows oil to flow to the bedplate. Excess
oil pressure is thus relieved and the pressure within the
main system is kept steady.

Maintenance

F-Interval Fig.2 Withdraw the plunger

1. Remove the valve from the engine and carefully


detach the end cover; withdraw the spring and
plunger (Fig.2).

2. Clean and examine all parts, ensuring that the


metering hole in the body is not obstructed
(Fig.3).

3. Examine the spring for cracks and check its free


length against the figure quoted in DATA.

4. Reassemble the valve and refit it to the engine,


using new joints as necessary.

Lubricating oil thermostatic valve Ruston RK270

Introduction

The thermostatic valve is a direct-acting, pre-set wax element type, automatic temperature regulator. It is fitted
across the oil cooler to regulate the temperature of oil entering the engine. It is arranged to by-pass the cooler
when the oil temperature is below operating temperature thus ensuring the engine lubricating oil warms up quickly
and is then maintained at the correct operating temperature regardless of variations in engine speed and power.

Maintenance

F-Interval

Apart from cleaning and testing no maintenance should be necessary. The operating range is pre-set and cannot
be adjusted; it can be altered by using elements of a different temperature rating, but this should not be done
without very careful consideration of all the factors likely to be affected, e.g., lubricating oil temperature variation.

Remove the valve from the engine, dismantle and clean all parts. Examine and test the elements, then re-
assemble and fit the valve.

For full information on this component see the suppliers literature at the end of this instruction.

Crankcase breather Ruston RK270

Introduction

Crankcase pressure, arising from blow-by of combustion gases past the piston rings, is relieved through the
crankcase breather. The pressure, if unrelieved, could cause leakage of lubricating oil through the crankshaft oil
seals.

Under normal running conditions, the crankcase is filled with warm air laden with oil mist together with small
quantities of combustion gases which pass through the breather to atmosphere. The oil mist condenses into
droplets in the inner cylinder and runs back into the engine.

In the event of a crankcase explosion, the sudden pressure rise is relieved through the open disc valve. The
primary pressure wave is followed by a partial vacuum in the crankcase which closes the valve and thus prevents
the inrush of a charge of air which could cause a secondary and more violent explosion.

No matter how good the condition of the engine, there will always be a small amount of blow-by past the piston
rings. When excessive smoke from the breather outlet indicates that blow-by has assumed abnormal proportions,
the pistons should be withdrawn for examination.

Water Cooling system

The water cooling system is split into two sections, a primary high temperature circuit for cooling the cylinder
block itself, and a secondary low temperature circuit for cooling charge air. The two circuits are linked together,
with cross flow between the two circuits controlled by a wax element thermostatic valve (nominal set point 82OC)
fitted in the high temperature circuit.

An engine driven centrifugal pump circulates cooling water through the cylinder jackets and into the thermostatic
valve. While the engine is warming up, the wax element valve diverts all the coolant back to the engine driven
pump. As the temperature rises above the set point, the valve begins to open and admits water from the low
temperature circuit, and delivering excess water back into the low temperature circuit.

A second engine driven pump circulates low temperature water through the chargecoolers and through the water
section of the central plate cooler. This circuit is controlled by an electro-pneumatic valve which controls a by-
pass across the plate cooler. This valve mixes warm by-passed water and cool water which has passed through
the plate cooler. The valve is controlled by a 4 – 20 mA signal from the Woodward digital controller based upon a
number of parameters, i.e. charge air temperature, engine speed, etc.

Small electric heaters and motor driven circulating pumps are fitted into both high and low temperature circuits to
ensure that the cylinder jackets and combustion air are maintained at an appropriate temperature for initial start-
up and idling. When the engine is on standby, the heaters and circulating pumps in both the HT and LT circuits
are switched on. The HT circuit is maintained at approximately 40OC and the LT circuit at approximately 70OC.
Circuit temperatures are under control of the heater thermostats.

On starting the HT heater and circulating pump are switched off. This circuit will start to warm up due to heat input
from the cylinder jackets. The LT heater and circulating pump remain on with the water giving heat to the air via
the chargecooler, thus ensuring good combustion. Since heat is given up to the combustion air, the circuit will
begin to cool down until the HT water reaches the thermostatic valve set point. When this occurs, water is
diverted from the HT circuit to the LT circuit by the thermostatic valve, which will quickly bring the LT circuit
temperature back to 70OC +. The chargecooler heater will then switch off under thermostat action. The system
may remain in this condition for some time with heat input from the jackets balanced by heat given up to the
chargecoolers. Should either the HT circuit or charge air temperature go outside preset limits (nominally 85OC for
the HT water and 70OC for the charge air) the electro-pneumatic cooler bypass valve will admit water to the
central plate cooler to balance the system.

When the central cooler is brought into circuit the LT heater and circulating pump are switched off. The system
will remain in this condition with either the HT circuit or the charge air temperature (whichever is the higher) acting
as the control point for the cooler bypass valve.

At a preset engine speed or charge air pressure (nominally 550r/min and 0.3 bar) the system switches to full
cooling, with all LT water delivered to the central cooler. The HT circuit will now operate at approximately 82OC
under control of its thermostatic valve and the charge air will have maximum cooling, with LT water temperature
O
being approximately 8 – 10 C above sea water temperature.

Cooling water Ruston RK270

Introduction

Raw water from any source is likely to contain elements, which will cause corrosion and/or scale formation
resulting in a loss of engine efficiency. Therefore, the water used for engine cooling should be treated to minimise
the harmful effects of these elements.

Corrosion

Corrosion can cause pitting, graphite wastage, rust formation and the choking of pipes and jackets. These
defects will make efficient cooling impossible and the result is a general inefficiency of the engine, high fuel and
lubricating oil consumption, overheating and high engine wear.

The main cause of corrosion is the presence of dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide in the water. The oxygen is
dissolved from air in contact with the water and, even in a closed system, the absorption of oxygen can never be
entirely prevented. Carbon dioxide is also dissolved from the air and is absorbed from the gases produced when
carbonates and bicarbonates are subjected to chemical conversion. As carbon dioxide is produced when the
“base-exchange” system is used to soften water which contains carbonates and bicarbonates, care must be
exercised when choosing a softening plant to treat waters which are high in temporary hardness otherwise the
presence of free carbon dioxide will cause slight acidity of the water and of the condensate.

Corrosion is usually of a complex nature. The above gases are the main causes of trouble and should be
eliminated first. Such cases need special collaboration between the chemist and the engineer to determine the
correct water treatment.

Scale formation

Scale is formed as dissolved solids and are deposited when the water is heated. The proportion of these Scale
forming solids is expressed in degrees of “hardness” and an English degree is the chemical equivalent of one
grain of calcium carbonate to one gallon of water.

The hardness of water is due to the presence of carbonate - the deposits of which release corrosive carbon
dioxide gas - or of sulphates, which cause deposits of hard, greyish, close-grained scale. Usually, both types are
found together.

Scale formation reduces cooling capacity by causing choking of pipes and water jackets, especially at the hottest
places such as cylinder heads. This can cause general inefficiency, high fuel and lubricating oil consumption,
engine wear and, finally, damage through overheating.

NOTE:-Keeping the system outlet temperature low will not reduce scale formation because local
temperatures, e.g. at cylinder heads, are always appreciably higher than the outlet temperature.

Distilled water and condensate

Distilled water and condensate do not contain scale-forming dissolved solids, but they are corrosive because of
the presence of dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide, therefore they must be treated with a corrosion inhibitor.

They are also prone to contamination by combustion gases, absorbing sulphur dioxide to form an acidic corrosive;
for these reasons, cooling tanks for static installations should be as remote as possible from likely sources of
contamination.

M7J02001.DOC Page 2 of 5 Section J02


Cooling water Ruston RK270

Topping-up

Topping-up is necessary to make up for water lost through evaporation and leakage. It should be remembered
that make-up water contains fresh corrosive and scale forming elements; therefore excessive topping-up should
be avoided.

Cooling water treatment

Regular treatment of cooling water prevents corrosion and scale formation and should therefore be part of
efficient maintenance.

Proprietary agents for the treatment of cooling water may be obtained from various manufacturers.
De-scaling and degreasing agents can also be obtained from these manufacturers(i).

To ascertain which of the various agents is most suitable for a particular system the manufacturer must be
consulted. He should be provided with details of the cooling system and a chemical analysis of the water used in
the system. If an anti-freeze mixture is to be used, ensure that the additives are compatible, and the
manufacturer of the chemicals should be consulted.

Most local authorities prohibit the discharge of certain chemicals into their sewer systems; the chemical
manufacturers must be advised of any such restrictions before they can make their recommendations.

Degreasing

Oil or grease contamination of a cooling system must be removed before a water-treating agent is added.
Degreasants, and instructions for their use, can be obtained from the suppliers listed.

The addition of a water-treating agent will prevent oil and grease from adhering to the cooling surfaces.

Descaling

Any scale must be removed from the cooling surfaces and flushed out of the system before a water-treating agent
is added; otherwise scale dislodged by the agent may accumulate in confined spaces restricting the water supply
and causing local overheating.

The chemical suppliers will recommend suitable descaling agents and provide instructions for their use.

pH value

The degree of acidity or alkalinity of water is expressed as the pH value on a numerical scale which ranges from 0
to 14. Water which is neutral has a value of 7 on this scale; water which is acid has a value below 7 and water
which is alkaline, has a value above 7.

Acid water tends to attack ferrous metals and strongly alkaline water attacks aluminium therefore the aim should
be to maintain the pH value of the water near neutral. However, as a slightly alkaline value is preferred, the
optimum value is between 8.5 and 9.

It is essential that the pH value is kept between 8.5 and 9 and this requires that the water is tested periodically.
The frequency of testing is dependent on the nature and quality of the normal water supply and can only be
determined by operational experience.

M7J02001.DOC Page 3 of 5 Section J02


Cooling water Ruston RK270

Various methods of testing can be used, including indicator papers, a universal indicator solution and a pocket-
sized, dial-type meter. Indicator papers are available in wide-range and narrow-range types. The colouring of
these papers may be affected by other factors, e.g., dirty water, use of anti-freeze etc., but normally the papers
will provide a fairly accurate indication.

A universal indicator solution will also give a reasonably accurate pH value check, but discolouration of the water
can materially alter the indicator ink.

The dial-type meter is the most accurate and is not affected by water colouration. Details of this type of
instrument may be obtained from the manufacturers (ii).

Flushing

If the amount of scale-forming matter, held in suspension by water treating agents is allowed to become
excessive sludge will form in the system.

The cooling system should be flushed at periodic intervals and the following table provides a general guide.

Hardness of water
in English degrees Flush every

below 15 deg. 12 months/6000 hours

15 to 20 deg. 8 months/4000 hours

20 deg. or over 6 months/3000hours

Anti-freeze mixture

Corrosion inhibiting, Engine Coolant Concentrate (anti-freeze) to BS6580 can be used safely in conjunction with
water treated as described earlier. If using an anti-freeze outside this specification seek the advice of the water
treatment compound manufacturers.

Anti-freeze mixture should be added to the system as the manufacturer’s recommendation. As the mixture is
corrosive, suitable inhibitors should be used.

Introduction

There are three centrifugal type water pumps that are driven from the free-end of the engine via the spring drive
and idler gears. All the pumps are flanged mounted to the auxiliary drive casing.

Sea water pump

The sea water pump circulates water through the combined cooler and gearbox oil cooler. The pump’s impeller is
keyed to the outer end of its shaft and is secured by a nut and tab washer. The shaft is supported by two ball
races located in the bearing housing and lubricated by oil from the engine system. An oil seal is fitted to prevent
leakage from the bearing housing. A mechanical seal prevents leakage of water along the shaft. Any oil or water
escaping past its respective seal is allowed to collect in an annular space from which it flows through an open
drain; excessive drainage should be investigated and the fault rectified as early as possible.

Low and High temperature pumps

The low temperature cooling water pump supplies water to the chargecoolers. The jacket water (High
temperature) cooling water pump circulates the engine cooling water. The shaft of each pump is supported by two
ball races located in the bearing housing. A mechanical-type water seal, comprising a rotating seal element and a
stationary seal element, prevents leakage of water along the shaft. Any oil or water leaking past its respective
seal is dispersed by a flinger onto the walls of the bearing housing and seal plate: the fluid then drains into a
collecting pocket and excessive leakage will overflow through the bottom drain hole. When this occurs the fault
should be rectified as early as possible by renewing the appropriate seal.

Maintenance
For maintenance, operation, dismantling and cleaning refer to the Suppliers Literature at the end of this
instruction.

F- Interval

1. Drain the cooling water systems and disconnect the associated pipework. Mark the housings to place and
remove the pumps from the engine. Transfer to a suitable workbench equipped with a vice.

2. Mark all the housing positions before separating and dismantle the pumps as described in the suppliers
literature.

3. On completion of overhaul, assemble the pumps to the engine and check the backlash between the pump
drive gears and the idler gears (See auxiliary drive section B4 data)

DISMANTLING INSTRUCTIONS

General

Before dismantling any portion of the pump or carrying out any maintenance work, ensure that the
power unit is immobilised.

Examine the sectional arrangement drawing, 3P12681, prior to starting.

During dismantling, keep all bearings free from dirt and moisture and, when re-assembling, replace
any worn or damaged parts, particularly the shaft seats and gaskets.

Dismantling

Drain off all liquid from the pump and disconnect and remove the suction pipework.

Remove the suction cover and suction ‘O’ ring.

Undo the impeller nut and washer using an extractor plate, draw the impeller off the shaft – NB, the
impeller has 5 x M10 tapped holes on 82.5 mm P.C.D which can be used for this purpose.

The shaft seal is now accessible.


Remove the rotating seal assembly from the shaft and examine the faces.
Removal of the stationary half of the seal assembly will require removal of the volute from the bearing
housing.
The seal half can be tapped out from the rear of the volute.

If it is necessary to dismantle the pump further remove the bearing housing lubrication pipework. The
pump bearing housing can be disconnected from the engine mounting flange, removing dowel if fitted.

Remove flinger, drive gear and the circlip holding the shaft assembly in place. Lightly tap out the shaft
assembly from the bearing housing.

Examine all parts for wear and replace if necessary.

Depending on the degree of strip down, it is advisable to replace oil seal, water seal, impeller
key and tabwasher.

M7J03002.DOC Page 5 of 26 Section J03


Cooling water pumps Ruston RK270

Re-Assembly

This is a reversal of the dismantling procedure. The impeller should be fitted back onto the shaft
according to the following instructions:

1. Ensure that the shaft taper and impeller bore are clean and de-greased.

2. Apply Loctite 242 to shaft thread and impeller nut face.


o
3. Tighten impeller nut to 60Nm and then rotate nut through a further 170 .

The shaft seal should be re-fitted according to the seal instruction sheet, enclosed.

M7J03002.DOC Page 6 of 26 Section J03


Cooling water pumps Ruston RK270

INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS

Pipework

Independent supports must be provided for all pipework, the weight must not be carried by the pump.
Provision must be made for expansion and contraction when pumping hot liquids.

The pipework system must have facilty for isolating, dismantling or removal of the pump.

Pump Mounting

Before fitting the pump to the engine the drive gear should be securely fitted. If oil lubrication is
necessary the relevant pump bearing housing plugs should be removed to allow lubrication pipes to
be fitted. Before final fitting consult engine manufacturers instructions.

Operating and Maintenance

Rotation

Check pump is running in the correct rotation as indicated on arrowed plate.

Priming

Before a straight centrifugal pump will operate, the suction line and impeller eye need to be filled with
liquid. This is also necessary to ascertain pump internals are lubricated by the liquid.

1. If a non-return valve and gate valve area fitted on the discharge side, air may
be exhausted from the suction line by hand or by mechanical means. During this operation the
gate valve should be kept closed when liquid will fill the pump under atmospheric pressure.

2. When the pump is operating under flooded suction conditions a gate valve
Should be fitted in the suction line and when the valve is opened liquid will be forced by
atmospheric pressure into the pump. The air must be able to escape through the discharge
line; alternatively an air vent should be provided in the pump casing.

Gaskets

Replace pump and pipe gaskets if worn or ensure that they are of the correct thickness and of a
suitable material for the liquid being pumped.

Continued /…..

M7J03002.DOC Page 7 of 26 Section J03


Cooling water pumps Ruston RK270

By-Pass Connection

When the pump is required to work against a closed discharge for a length of time, a small amount of
liquid should be recirculated from the pump to the source of supply. This will eliminate any rise in
temperature of the liquid within the pump. The amount required increases with pump size and speed.

Bearings

Lubrication is provided by a supply of oil from the engine and requires no attention. NOTE: Plugs are
fitted to the bearing housing oilways to prevent the ingress of dirt during transit and storage. Ensure
that these are removed before the pump is fitted to the engine.

Storage Of Pump

Store in a dry, well ventilated room. All pump units should have the shaft rotated at regular intervals to
keep the lubricant distributed and prevent any build-up of rust. Drain off all liquid.

Shaft Seal

When the shaft seal becomes worn, it is recommended that a complete new seal assembly is fitted,
see Appendix 1 for assembly details

DISMANTLING INSTRUCTIONS

General

Before dismantling any portion of the pump or carrying out any maintenance work, ensure that the
power unit is immobilised.

Examine the sectional arrangement drawing, 3P14723, prior to starting.

During dismantling, keep all bearings free from dirt and moisture and, when re-assembling, replace
any worn or damaged parts, particularly the shaft seats and gaskets.

Dismantling

Drain off all liquid from the pump and disconnect and remove the suction pipework.

Remove the suction cover and suction ‘O’ ring.

Undo the impeller nut and washer using an extractor plate, draw the impeller off the shaft – NB, the
impeller has 5 x M10 tapped holes on 82.5 mm P.C.D which can be used for this purpose.

The shaft seal is now accessible.


Remove the rotating seal assembly from the shaft and examine the faces.
Removal of the stationary half of the seal assembly will require removal of the volute from the bearing
housing.
The seal half can be tapped out from the rear of the volute.

If it is necessary to dismantle the pump further remove the bearing housing lubrication pipework. The
pump bearing housing can be disconnected from the engine mounting flange, removing dowel if fitted.

Remove flinger, drive gear and the circlip holding the shaft assembly in place. Lightly tap out the shaft
assembly from the bearing housing.

Examine all parts for wear and replace if necessary.

Depending on the degree of strip down, it is advisable to replace oil seal, water seal, impeller
key and tabwasher.

M7J03002.DOC Page 12 of 26 Section J03


Cooling water pumps Ruston RK270

Re-Assembly

This is a reversal of the dismantling procedure. The impeller should be fitted back onto the shaft
according to the following instructions:

1. Ensure that the shaft taper and impeller bore are clean and de-greased.

2. Apply Loctite 242 to shaft thread and impeller nut face.


o
3. Tighten impeller nut to 60Nm and then rotate nut through a further 170 .

The shaft seal should be re-fitted according to the seal instruction sheet, enclosed.

Cooling water pumps Ruston RK270

INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS

Pipework

Independent supports must be provided for all pipework, the weight must not be carried by the pump.
Provision must be made for expansion and contraction when pumping hot liquids.

The pipework system must have facilty for isolating, dismantling or removal of the pump.

Pump Mounting

Before fitting the pump to the engine the drive gear should be securely fitted. If oil lubrication is
necessary the relevant pump bearing housing plugs should be removed to allow lubrication pipes to
be fitted. Before final fitting consult engine manufacturers instructions.

Operating and Maintenance

Rotation

Check pump is running in the correct rotation as indicated on arrowed plate.

Priming

Before a straight centrifugal pump will operate, the suction line and impeller eye need to be filled with
liquid. This is also necessary to ascertain pump internals are lubricated by the liquid.

1. If a non-return valve and gate valve area fitted on the discharge side, air may
be exhausted from the suction line by hand or by mechanical means. During this operation the
gate valve should be kept closed when liquid will fill the pump under atmospheric pressure.

2. When the pump is operating under flooded suction conditions a gate valve
Should be fitted in the suction line and when the valve is opened liquid will be forced by
atmospheric pressure into the pump. The air must be able to escape through the discharge
line; alternatively an air vent should be provided in the pump casing.

Gaskets

Replace pump and pipe gaskets if worn or ensure that they are of the correct thickness and of a
suitable material for the liquid being pumped.

Continued /…..

M7J03002.DOC Page 14 of 26 Section J03


Cooling water pumps Ruston RK270

By-Pass Connection

When the pump is required to work against a closed discharge for a length of time, a small amount of
liquid should be recirculated from the pump to the source of supply. This will eliminate any rise in
temperature of the liquid within the pump. The amount required increases with pump size and speed.

Bearings

Lubrication is provided by a supply of oil from the engine and requires no attention. NOTE: Plugs are
fitted to the bearing housing oilways to prevent the ingress of dirt during transit and storage. Ensure
that these are removed before the pump is fitted to the engine.

Storage Of Pump

Store in a dry, well ventilated room. All pump units should have the shaft rotated at regular intervals to
keep the lubricant distributed and prevent any build-up of rust. Drain off all liquid.

Shaft Seal

When the shaft seal becomes worn, it is recommended that a complete new seal assembly is fitted,

Compressed air is stored in the main air receiver at a pressure of 30 bar(g). Two air receivers are provided per
vessel, one for each engine room. These should be cross connected to enable the air receiver in one engine
room to supply air to engines in the other.

The air pressure is reduced to 10 bar(g) by a regulating valve before presentation to the starter motor. The
regulating valves are protected by Y-type strainers. A pressure relief valve set at 12 bar(g) is also supplied to
protect the starter motors from overpressure. Precautions must be taken to ensure that water is removed from
the air before supplying to the starter motors.

3. Improper hook-up impairs the efficiency of a Starter.
Pressure Lines smaller than those recommended will
reduce the volume of air to the motor and the use of
reducers for piped-away applications in the exhaust
port will restrict the exhaust causing back pressure to
the motor resulting in reduced performance. Keep the
number of tees and elbows, and the length of the
supply line to a minimum. Use l-1/2” hose or pipe
for supply lines up to 15 feet long: use 2” hose or pipe
if the supply line is over 15 feet long.
4. Install a 300 mesh strainer in the inlet line for each
starter. These 300 mesh strainers provide 50 micron
filtration and offer significant protection against
supply line contaminants which could damage the
turbine components. Ingersoll-Rand offers 3 sizes:
ST900-267-24 for l-1/2 inch lines, ST900-267-32
for 2 inch lines and ST900-267-64 for 4 inch lines.
Replacement elements are: ST900-266-24 for l-1/2
inch, ST900-266-32 for 2 inch and ST900-266-64
for 4 inch lines.

Metal particle detector Ruston RK270

Introduction

The detector is connected to a pipe that is fed directly from the lub oil pump but it is fitted before the lub oil filter.
The oil is continuously fed through the detector that uses a perforated board containing a plated electrical grid.
Activation of the detector occurs when metallic particles bridge the gaps on the electrical grid and complete a
normally open circuit consequently triggering an alarm.

Maintenance

For full information on this component refer to the suppliers literature at the end of this instruction.

Operation

In the event of an alarm, isolate the detector and check the grid for metal particles.

1. Remove the end cap using a ½” square drive

2. Inspect the grid. The presence of any metallic debris confirms a fault and further investigation is
mandatory.

3. If the grid has been bridged by other deposits, which can be identified as not serious, clean and replace
the grid and end cap, open the isolating valves, clear the alarm and put the engine back into service.

Oil Mist detector Ruston RK270

Introduction

The engines are fitted with an oil mist detector which continuously extracts the crankcase atmosphere, via a pipe
system, and moves it past a measuring track. In the track, the opacity of the crankcase atmosphere is measured
by means of infrared light.

A rise in the concentration of the oil mist in the crankcase atmosphere will absorb part of the infrared light and
trigger an alarm.

Full details of the operation of the oil mist detector can be found in the suppliers information at the end of
this instruction.

Maintenance

For full information on this component refer to the suppliers literature at the end of this instruction.

Operation

In the event of an oil mist detector (OMD) alarm occurring the engine should be immediately shut down and the
following checks performed.

1. Note which engine bay has been identified on OMD unit.

2. Check correct operation of OMD.

3. Check the grid of the metal particle detector, any metallic debris confirms the presence of a fault and
further investigation is mandatory.

Endeavour to identify type of material as aid to locating source of alarm. If this can not be done with certainty,
save the debris and return it to ALSTOM Engines Ltd., Ruston Division for laboratory examination.

If the source of the debris is identified continue by dismantling and carry out repairs as necessary. If source of
debris is not identified proceed through steps 4 to 12 as follows.

4. Remove the turbocharger air filter and check that the turbocharger is free to turn and has correct end float.

5. Remove crankcase doors.

6. Examine and feel in the vicinity of all large end and main bearings for evidence of overheating.

7. Examine the end clearance of large end and main bearings for extruded or melted bearing material.

8. Check the connecting rods for freedom to move along the crankshaft within the end float.

9. Check that the crankshaft is free to turn and check that the end float is correct.

10. Check the cylinder liners for freedom of scuff or seizure. Rotate the crankshaft to allow examination of the
maximum length of liner.

11. Remove camshaft gear drive doors.

M7L03001.DOC Page 2 of 3 Section L03


Oil Mist detector Ruston RK270

12. Examine the gear bearings for signs of overheating or melted bearing material.

13. Check the gears endfloat and backlash.

14. Remove the camshaft doors and check the camshaft bearings for freedom from overheating or melted
bearing material.

If the above checks prove negative reset the oil mist detector and run the engine at idle speed to confirm the oil
mist detector has cleared. If another alarm occurs, stop engine immediately.

Further examinations must be carried out to locate source of OMD alarm.

The standard speed pick-up is an inductive perception head. A voltage is induced when either teeth or holes on
the flywheel pass close to the end of the perception head. The gap necessary to achieve a satisfactory signal
varies from engine to engine, depending on the mass of the flywheel and the velocity of the teeth or holes passing
the head. A gap of 1.5mm is usually satisfactory, but it may be between 1.5mm and 2.5mm.

The minimum signal level required to trigger the governor is 1 volt peak to peak. This minimum signal must be
generated at cranking speed otherwise the engine will not start. In practice this level is easily exceeded and care
must be taken that the signal level is not so high that imperfections on the flywheel are seen as markers.

If using markers on the face of the flywheel, it is advisable to use studs of 10mm diameter projecting at least
15mm from the face. This ensures that marks on the flywheel are out of range of the perception head.

Running in and testing Ruston RK270

Introduction

The power unit must be run-in whenever any new or reconditioned major parts have been fitted; it may be run on
a resistance load if the engine settings require checking or if the electrical settings require adjustment. Information
regarding equipment for this purpose and directions for its use, may be obtained from ALSTOM Engines Ltd.,
Ruston Division.

Initial settings

If the governor of the fuel injection pumps has been changed it is essential to ensure that, with the governor
quadrant reading zero and the governor overriding control lever at RUN, the appropriate NO FUEL gauge can be
inserted easily between the pump body and the rack collar.

If all racks are reading high, or if all are low, initial simultaneous adjustment of all racks can be made by adjusting
the length of the telescopic link.

NOTE:- The maximum fuel stop is set at the works to permit a site overload rating of 10%. As the stop
should not need to be disturbed there should be no necessity to adjust it; however, if adjustment is ever
necessary, the site overload rating must not be exceeded.

Individual fuel pumps can be adjusted by means of the special spanner applied to the rack adjusting screw
(Fig.1(A)). Release the locknut (Fig.1(B), turn the screw the appropriate amount in the right direction, then tighten
the locknut.

NOTE:- Moving the screw inwards increases both the rack reading and the amount of fuel to be delivered;
screwing out decreases the reading and the fuel quantity. For more detailed adjustment procedures, see
ASSEMBLING FUEL INJECTION PUMPS TO THE ENGINE.

Preparation for running

Before starting the engine, check the lubricating oil, fuel and water levels; ensure that the systems are primed and
that there is satisfactory oil flow to all bearings, sprays and the governor.

Pour ½ litre of clean lubricating oil down the push rod guard tubes on each cylinder to fill the cam troughs.

Running in and testing Ruston RK270

Running-in

When new or reconditioned major parts have been fitted, e.g. pistons, cylinder liners or cylinder heads, main
and/or large end bearings, etc the engines should be run-in according to the schedule under TIMES AND
CONDITIONS. This schedule is applicable to engines whether all or just a few line parts have been renewed.

The following points must also be checked.


1. Lubricating oil pressure: if the indicated pressure is low and the gauge is not faulty, the cause may be a
sticking relief valve, broken pipes or loose connections on the suction side of the pump or a sticking
starting valve.

2. Lubrication of the rocker bracket fulcrum pins and the push rod top ends: if this is not correct, check the
operation of the pressure reducing valve as described in the relevant instruction.

3. High pressure fuel pipe connections: these should be examined for leakage to eliminate the possibility of
dilution of the lubricating oil by escaping fuel. This check must be made immediately after starting and at
frequent intervals during the running in procedure in case a leak develops.

M7M03000.DOC Page 1 of 3
Crack detection Ruston RK270

Introduction

Several methods can be used for the detection of cracks in engine components and the most common methods
are:

1. Magnetic - used on ferrous metals except for austentic and stainless steels.

2. Dye penetrant - used on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

3. Paraffin/whitewash - also used on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Primarily, the object of crack testing is to determine surface defects, normally fatigue cracks, and the methods are
outlined in the following paragraphs.

Magnetic

This method requires the object under test to be magnetised and then swabbed with paraffin or light oil which
contains soft iron filings in suspension. Because of the polarity induced along the edges of the cracks, the iron
particles are attracted to these edges and adhere.

After testing, the sound components must be demagnetised to restore them to their original state. Although this
method will indicate cracks quite efficiently, it will also tend to show up minor slag inclusions in shafts and folds in
forgings which are relatively unimportant. Therefore, this type of testing should be carried out by experienced
operators who will not be misled into rejecting sound components through misinterpretation of results.

Magnetic testing is not suitable for steels with high nickel and/or high chromium content, stainless steels,
austentic steels and non-ferrous metals.

Dye penetrant

This method is effective on all metals, both ferrous and non-ferrous. The procedure to be adopted, which is
relatively simple, is as follows:

1. Clean the surface, removing all grease, dirt, paint and rust.

2. Apply the dye penetrant (i), using a brush, swab or spray. The penetrant is a deep-red mobile fluid which
penetrates all surface irregularities so that a minute quantity is retained in the defect after the excess has
been removed.

3. Allow the penetrant to remain on the surface for a period long enough to ensure complete
penetration. The period depends on the nature of the flaw, e.g. surface porosity and wide cracks will
require a period of about ten minutes whilst fatigue cracks or a very fine defect may require up to thirty
minutes.

4. Remove all traces of dye penetrant from the surface. This is best done by wiping with a lint free cloth
socked in cleaner, or water, according to manufacturers recommendations. ON NO ACCOUNT SHOULD
CLEANER BE SPRAYED ONTO THE SURFACE SINCE THIS CAN WAS THE DYE OUT OF THE
DEFECTS.

M7M03000.DOC Page 2 of 3 Section M03


Crack detection Ruston RK270

5. Apply the developer. The best method is to spray it on but brushing is satisfactory provided that care is
taken to avoid overlapping and runs. As the developer dries, it will form a smooth white coat over the
surface, then red colour indications will begin to appear in the location of any defect. Cracks will show as
thin red lines and the width of such lines is proportional to the depth of the fault they disclose. Very tight
cracks may appear as a series of red dots in continuous form. Porosity appears as a series of red dots
spread over the surface without lineal continuity.

6. Remove the developer as detailed in the manufacturer’s instructions.

Paraffin/whitewash

If neither of the two previously mentioned methods are available, the following method will be found effective for
detecting serious cracks.

1. Clean the part to be examined, wash it in paraffin then dry it.

2. Apply a coat of ordinary whitewash to the surfaces under examination. When the whitewash is dry, any
cracks will readily show because the paraffin remaining in the cracks will seep out and discolour the
whitewash. This can often be accelerated by the gentle application of heat or by gently striking the part
with a hide hammer or similar tool

Engine preservation Ruston RK270

Introduction

The following information describes the procedures followed for the preservation, before despatch, of Ruston
engines that have been works tested using an engine lubricating oil which contains anti-rusting inhibitors thus
providing internal preservation to the engine.

Engines treated in accordance with this procedure will be protected for 12 - 18 months under dry, indoor storage
conditions.

Preservation - engine

1 Each piston in turn is positioned at BDC and using a moisture free spray gun Crodafluid PG71, or
equivalent, is sprayed through the cylinder head relief valve passage into the cylinder. A maximum of three
fluid ounces per cylinder is used.

On completion the engine is rotated one complete revolution.

2. The fuel control linkage is liberally coated with Crodafluid PG71.

3. The cooling system is drained, flushed with a mixture of Shellsafe Antifreeze, or equivalent, for twenty
minutes and re-drained.

4. All fuel oil, lubricating oil and water connections are blanked off with steel plates and joints.

5. All other connections eg. flanges, pipe unions etc. are blanked off using plastic enclosures and/or Densyl
tape or equivalent.

6. Two coats of Crodafluid PG71, or equivalent, are applied to all external bright parts such as flywheel,
crankshaft flange and coupling bolts, input/output shafts, knobs, gears, levers, meter bezels etc.

Bright parts that are shipped separately are similarly preserved.

7. Crodafluid PG71, or equivalent, is sprayed inside the turbocharger via the compressor inlet and exhaust
outlet.

8. Oil is drained from the sump of separately lubricated governors and a polythene cover placed over the
governor. The cover is secured in place with tape but not sealed.

9. The air filter is wrapped with waterproof paper and sealed with Densyl tape, or equivalent.

10. All glass faces are protected by hardboard covers and secured by Densyl tape.

After preservation the crankshaft MUST not be rotated.

Preservation - driven machinery

The preservation of driven machinery eg. generators, gear boxes, pumps, is carried out in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions.

M7M04000.DOC Page 2 of 4 Section M04


Engine preservation Ruston RK270

Labelling

Labels are attached to indicate “No oil” and “No water”. In addition, a label is tied in a prominent position which
reads as follows:

“ This engine has been preserved. The materials used give protection for up to 18 months under dry, indoor
storage conditions. The oils used need not be removed, but working parts should be lubricated before the engine
is started"

A final label is attached to the crankshaft flange/flywheel warning that the crankshaft MUST not be rotated until
final installation, or re-preservation prior to final installation.

Packing

Engines for despatch overseas, are completely enveloped in “Alkathene”, which is sealed to form an air-tight bag,
before being put in a packing case. Before the bag is sealed, small bags of Silica-gel are hung around the engine
to absorb residual moisture.

Storage

If the engine is not required for installation immediately it arrives on site, it should be allowed to remain in its
“Alkathene” bag until required. Although it is confidently expected that the packing will keep the engine in good
condition for a considerable period, we recommended that a visual inspection is made from time to time to ensure
that moisture is not forming in the bag.

Preparation for putting engine into service

None of the preservatives applied to the engine needs to be removed before running.

Re-preservation of engine

The following procedure will generally be applied 18 months after the date of Works preservation providing that
the engine has been in dry, indoor storage.

1. Remove crankcase doors and covers from the camshaft compartment, free end drive compartment,
governor drive and valve gear.

2. Check the general condition of the engine internals, valve gear and fuel control linkage for signs of
corrosion or staining and clean/treat as necessary.

3. Ensure that the main bearings are lubricated prior to and during any crankshaft turning.

4. Follow the steps 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7 as original preservation.

5. Using a suitable moisture free spray gun, spray Crodafluid PG71, or equivalent, onto the following areas
whilst barring round the engine as necessary.
a) Valve gear.
b) Internal surfaces of bedplate and crankcase.
c) Crankshaft, connecting rods, undersides of piston and liner bores.

M7M04000.DOC Page 3 of 4 Section M04


Engine preservation Ruston RK270

d) Camshaft, cams and cam followers.

After re-preservation the crankshaft MUST not be turned.

6. Follow the suppliers instructions for re-preservation of governors, air motors and driven machinery.

7. Ensure that any re-protection and re-sealing of components is carried out as original preservation.

If the above procedure is followed then the engine should be satisfactorily preserved for a further 12 months
maximum under dry, indoor storage conditions.

If storage is to be continued in excess of this time, contact ALSTOM Engines Ltd., Ruston Division Customer
Support Department for advice.

Preservation of spares

Spare parts stores should be dry and well ventilated.

The preservatives applied to the spare parts should not be removed until the parts are required and, during
storage, frequent inspections should be made to ensure that there is no deterioration.

When parts removed from an engine are reconditioned and returned to store, they should be given a coating of
preservative, e.g., Crodafluid PG71 before binning. In the case of sub-assemblies such as governors, etc., they
should be sprayed with Crodafluid PG71 before storage.
