2.6 Fire and environmental protection, fluids and lubricants
Fire prevention and fire
Fire, exposed light bulbs and smoking are prohibited.
In case of a fire, stop the fuel supply if this is possible without endangering personnel.
The product has hot surfaces that can ignite combustible gases and other substances in the immediate area.
The operating company must install and operate the product a safe distance away from danger sources and
observe any relevant safety regulations or recommendations. Products that comply with the SOLAS Conven-
tion do not constitute such as danger.
After working with combustible fluids and lubricants (e.g. cleaning agents), ensure the area is well ventilated.
The resultant vapor/air mixture must be sufficiently diluted to prevent a potentially explosive atmosphere.
Eliminate leaks of fluids and lubricants immediately. Fluids and lubricants on hot components can cause
fires, so keep the product clean at all times. Do not leave rags saturated with fluids and lubricants on the
product. Do not store combustible materials near the product.
Incorrect refueling of the reducing agent system with fuel can result in fire.
Before welding, clean the area to be welded with a nonflammable fluid. Do not carry out welding work on
pipes and components carrying oil or fuel.
When starting the engine with an external power source, connect the ground lead last and remove it first. To
avoid sparks in the vicinity of the battery, connect the ground cable from the external power source to the
ground cable of the engine or to the ground terminal of the starter.
Ensure that suitable extinguishing agents (fire extinguishers) are always available and that staff are familiar
with their correct handling.
A fire can result in the creation of toxic substances. Always wear protective gloves when handling compo-
nents and wear additional personal protective equipment is necessary.
Noise
Wear hearing protection in workplaces with a sound pressure level in excess of 85 dB (A).
Noise can lead to an increased risk of accidents if acoustic signals, warning shouts or sounds indicating dan-
ger are compromised.
Environmental protection and disposal

Dispose of used fluids, lubricants and components in accordance with local regulations.
Within the EU, batteries can be returned free of charge to the manufacturer where they will be properly recy-
cled.
Fluids and lubricants/auxiliary materials (process materials)

Process materials can also be or contain hazardous or toxic substances. When using process materials and
other chemical substances, observe the associated safety data sheet. The safety data sheet may be obtained
from the relevant manufacturer or from MTU.
TIM-ID: 0000040536 - 019
Only process materials approved by the manufacturer in accordance with the Fluids and Lubricants Specifi-
cations must be used. The most recent respective version must be requested from the manufacturer.

9.2.2 Cylinder liner – Instructions and comments on endoscopic and visual
examination
Terms used for endoscopic examination
Use the terms listed below to describe the condition of the cylinder-liner surface in the endoscopic examina-
tion report.
Findings Explanations/Action
Minor dirt scores Minor dirt scores can occur during the assembly of a new engine (honing products,
particles, broken-off burrs). Removed cylinders clearly show such scoring on the
running surface under endoscope magnification. Cannot be felt with the fingernail.
Findings not critical
Single scores Clearly visible scores caused by hard particles. They usually start in the TDC area
and cross through the honing pattern in the direction of stroke.
Scored area These areas consist of scores of different length and depth next to one another. In
most cases, they are found at the 6-o'clock and 12-o'clock positions (inlet/
exhaust) along the transverse engine axis.
Polished area Polished areas are on the running surface but almost the whole honing pattern is
still visible. Polished areas appear brighter and more shiny than the surrounding
running surface.
Bright area Bright areas are on the running surface and show local removal of the honing pat-
tern. Grooves from the honing process are not visible any more.
Discoloration This is caused by oxidation (surface discoloration through oil or fuel) and tempera-
ture differences around the liner. It appears rather darker within the honed struc-
ture in contrast to the bright metallic running surface. The honing pattern is undis-
turbed. Discolorations extend in stroke direction and may be interrupted.
Corrosion fields / Corrosion fields / spots result from moisture (condensate) with the valves in the
spots overlap (open) position. They are clearly visible due to the dark color of the honing
groove bottom.
This corrosion is not critical unless there is corrosion pitting.
Black lines Black lines are a preliminary stage of burn marks. They are visible as a clear discol-
oration from TDC to BDC in the running surface and the start of localized damage
to the honing pattern.
Cylinder liners with a large number of black lines around the running surface have
limited service life and should be replaced.
Burn mark These are caused by a disturbance in the liner / ring tribo system. Usually they run
over the whole ring-travel area (TDC/BDC), starting at the first TDC-ring and be-
coming more visible from the second TDC-ring 2 onwards and less pronounced
from TDC-ring 1. The honing pattern is usually no longer visible and displays a
TIM-ID: 0000000014 - 017
clearly defined (straight) edge to the undisturbed surface. The damaged surface is
usually discolored. The circumferential length varies.
Liners with burn marks starting in TDC ring 1 have to be replaced.
Seizure marks, scuff- Irregular circumference lengths and depths. Can be caused either by the piston
ing skirt or the piston crown. Material deposits on the liner (smear), heavy discolora-
tion. Severe, visible scoring.
Replace liner.
Table 3: Endoscopic examination – Terms used
MS150093/05E 2018-12 | Cylinder Liner | 195

Evaluation of findings and further measures
The findings in the start phase of oxidation discoloration and burn marks are similar. A thorough investigation
and compliance with the above evaluation criteria allow an unambiguous evaluation. To avoid unnecessary
disassembly work, it is recommended that another inspection be carried out after further operation of the
engine.
