fuel pump.
The Diesel Switch is able to do the changeover in a

controlled way so that rapid temperature deviations are

avoided. 

The changeover between HFO and distillate fuels can give

problems for the fuel equipment, the process will need a

high degree of automation to avoid incidents. MAN Diesel

now offers the Diesel Switch, which ensures the necessary

the flexibility and safety when changing between HFO and

MDO/MGO.

The principle of the Diesel Switch- 

MAN Diesel recommends to reduce the load to 25-40% to

control the changeover. 

The Diesel Switch ensures a controlled and safe

changeover independent of the engine load. 

The Diesel Switch operates on a combination of the

temperature at the engine and the time.

 If the fuel temperature at the engine inlet exceeds 2

degrees/minute the Diesel Switch will give an alarm and put

the process on hold.

 The process will be logged in the Diesel Switch so that it

can be used as documentation to port authorities after the

changeover.

The Diesel Switch offers:

Touch screen control panel

Control handle for the changeover

Safety

Data logging
Changeover valve 

Magnetic coupling
Integrated sensor for actual position 

Integrated sensors for end positions

Integrated connection box
Manual override 

Controlling an MGO cooler or chiller

Data logging of temperatures and pressures 

Remote operation with second touch screen

LABELS: FUNCTION ORAL 4B AND 6 SHARE
