butt clearence: i told him three cases....

1)if the liner also has been taken out during decarb then job is very easy, adjust the piston ring below the scavenge port area, he asked why??(i told as it is least wear zone), put copaslip on top surface of piston ring i.e. piston ring surface perpendicular to that of liner surface (nd not on side surface i.e. parallel to that of liner surface), nd take impression on a chart paper,u will get obliquue cut impression on chart paper, measure it with vernier caliper....2)when liner is inside the cyl. block, just go down in the liner and repeat the above procedure...3) if one faces ny difficulty in above two procedure then he can also take it by putting the ring in new liner at any place and then repeat the same procedure.

thanks..!!! for gas charging a special T-piece v/v block with mounted press. gauge (diagram u can c at marine insight website), is provided to combine three components nd they r...vacuum pump, charging cylinder and charging point on ac line. after connecting the pipes to these components, start the vacuum pump, which will suck all the air from the pipes nd will discharge it into the recovery bottle. also purge some refrigerant gas from charging cyl. nd collect them in recovery bottle...upto nw its ok and later part i explained the procedure which we follow during (liquid charging)...i m nt sure whether same is followed in gas charging or not but surveyor didnt say nything nd just said ok...nd procedure is.....close the receiver outlet v/v, start the compressor (during this charging point v/v on ac line is shut)...hence all the refrigerant will get collected in the receiver nd finally, compressor will trip on l.p. cut-out. now bypass the lp cutout,close the vacuum p/p v/v,open the charging point v/v and start the comressor...regrigerant filling will take place...keep an eye on ref. level in receiver nd charging cyl. should be kept on weighing machine. finally stop the comp, reset the lp cutout and purge the receiver for ny air in recovery bottle only nt in atm.

: person must be in proper ppe and leather hand glove is must. changeover the filter by turning handle, check whether v/v is holding or not by opening the purging cock.(on my ship there was purging bolt but he said its not possible that a hot filter does not has purging cock, so i just agreed with him), nw crack open the filter cover bolts to check the v/v is holding or not(again, as purging cock passage may be chocked), take out the filter in an empty bucket, allow it to cool, and then put it in the bucket containing diesel oil, clean it, and put it back. in the end changeover the filter and purge the air inside.
