Instructions for Main Engines

This book forms part of a set of books consisting of three volumes entitled:
Vol. I OPERATION
Vol. II MAINTENANCE
Vol. III COMPONENTS, DESCRIPTIONS
The purpose of these books is to provide general guidance on operation and maintenance and
to describe the constructional features of a standard version of an MAN B&W main diesel engine. Deviations may be found in a specific plant. In addition, the books can be used for reference purposes, for instance in correspondence and when ordering spare parts.
It is essential that the following data is stated in spare parts orders as it is used by us to ensure
the supply of the correct parts for the individual engines:
1. Name of vessel
2. Engine No.
built by
3. Plate No.
4. Part No.
5. Quantity required (and description)
Example:
M/S Nybo 7730 B&W P90201-0036 059

10 off (piston ring)
+ )The Plate No. may consist of either of these two sets of digits, as the pages are
in the process of being updated with new numbers: P90201-0036 or 90201-036.
To ensure optimum efficiency, reliability and lifetime of the engine and its components, only
original spare parts should be used when replacing parts on the engine.
When used in texts and illustrations, the designation D refers to the information given on the
data sheets inserted in the respective books.
Reliable and economical operation of the diesel engines is conditional upon its correct operation and maintenance in accordance with MAN B&W Diesel A/S instructions. Emissions related maintenance of the diesel engine shall be performed as specified in MAN B&W Diesel
A/S instructions and any additional instructions to that effect included in the Technical File.
Consequently, it is essential that the engine room personnel are fully acquainted with the contents of this book and, in respect of instructions on emissions related maintenance of the diesel engine, also the additional instructions to that effect set out in the Technical File.

Checking and Maintenance Schedule,

26-70 MC/MC-C Engines
900-1
The Checking and Maintenance Schedules indicate the intervals at which it is deemed appropriate to inspect the individual components of the
engine and to carry out overhauls, if necessary,
based on the engine condition or on time criteria.
Design modifications may necessitate a revision of

the instructions, in which case the revised instructions and changed overhauling intervals, if any, will
apply and supersede those originally issued (see
e.g our Service Letters).
The stated Normal hours of service should only

be used as a guide, as differences in the actual
service conditions, the quality of the fuel oil or lubricating oil, the treatment of cooling water, etc.
will decisively influence the actual service results,
and thus the intervals between necessary overhauling.
In addition to the checking and overhauling intervals stated in this schedule, please note that the
periodical survey requirements of the classification
society may require additional checks and overhauls to be carried out. For further information
please refer to the classification society.
The procedures are divided into three categories:

Condition checking procedures
marked under the heading Normal hours of service with a C,

deal with the service condition of a number of engine components, and form the basis for estimating whether further overhauling is necessary. In a number of cases the condition checking
procedures refer to Volume I of the instruction book, in which
more detailed descriptions and working procedures can be found.
Condition-based overhauling
procedures
are those procedures which under the heading Normal hours of

service are marked with an O, and opposite which, under the
heading Overhaul to be based on procedure No. (column P), a
procedure number is stated.
This procedure number normally refers to one of the above condition checking procedures which form the basis of the overhaul.
For this reason, the intervals stated are for guidance only.
Time-based overhauling
procedures
also marked with an O under the headings Normal hours of service or Based on observations, are the procedures where an
actual basis for estimation is lacking. It is recommended, therefore, to carry out these procedures at the overhauling intervals
stated as a basis.
Where a symbol O or C is indicated in Based on observations
(column B), this is due to the fact that special service conditions
may make checking or overhauling necessary beyond the actual
standard schedules indicated.

The top clearance between the journal and a

new bearing shell is the result of a summation
of the production tolerances of the bearing assembly components.
For the top clearance of a specific bearing, see

the measurement in the Adjustment Sheet in
Volume I, OPERATION.
1. Open the crankcase door at the relevant
cylinder.
2. Turn the crankthrow concerned to BDC.
M904010255C01
The top clearance for a new bearing will normally be in the range stated in Data. Note that
the figures are to be used for guidance only.
3.
3. Measure the clearance in the crosshead

bearing by inserting a feeler gauge between the bearing cap and the crosshead
journal at the top of the upper bearing
shell, at both sides and fore and aft. See
Data.
For evaluation of the bearing shell, see

Chapter 708, Bearings in the instruction
book, Volume I, OPERATION.
M904010255C02
4. The difference between the actual clearance measurement and the measurement
recorded in the Adjustment Sheet (or the
clearance noted for a new bearing installed
later) must not exceed 0.1 mm. If so, the
crosshead bearing must be disassembled
for inspection.
D0401
D0402
5.
5. The wear limit for a crosshead bearing shell

is confined to a 50% reduction of the oil
wedge length L.

Checking
General
1.
The condition of the main bearings can be

checked by:
Deection readings
Visual checking
Edge checking and
Crankshaft deection readings

Crankshaft deection readings should be taken
while the ship is aoat (i.e. not while in dry
dock).
As the alignment is inuenced by the engine
temperature as well as the loading conditions,
deection measurements should, for comparison purposes, always be made under nearly
the same temperature and load conditions.
2.
Positive (+)
Place a dial gauge axially in the crank

throw opposite the crankpin, as illustrated
on the sketch. The correct mounting position is marked with punch marks on the
crank throw. See also Chapter 708 in Volume I.
2. Closing of the crank throw (compression

of the gauge) is regarded as negative ()
and opening as positive (+).
3. Set the dial gauge to zero at the B1 side
near BDC. Whilst turning clockwise, take
the readings when the throw passes the
positions:

4. When taking deection readings for the

three aftmost cylinders, the turning gear
should, at each stoppage, be turned a little
backwards to ease off the tangential pressure on the turning wheel teeth. Otherwise,
this pressure may falsify the readings.
M905020046C01
For evaluation of the crankshaft deection

readings, see Volume I, OPERATION, Chapter 708.
5.
If the crankshaft deection (alignment indicator) is approaching the tolerance limits

(see Vol. I, OPERATION), the two adjacent
main bearings must be checked for wear.
See next page for checking of main bearing.
If the bearings are found to be in good
order, please contact MAN B&W Diesel or
the engine manufacturer for checking of the
bedplate alignment.
As reference, use the after seatrial deection table.
M905010208C05
The condition of the bearing can be checked

as follows:
5. Visually look for bearing metal fragments in
the oil pan, and check the lters for metal
fragments.
Such fragments can be from crosshead,
guide shoe or crankpin bearings. If fragments are found, the damaged bearing can
be found by edge checking with a feeler.
General
Bearing damage usually propagates rather
quickly towards the edge of the bearing where,
eventually, it causes chips to be broken off,
which means that loose pieces of white metal
can fall down into the crankcase beneath the
bearing support.
Large, thick pieces will normally be found during a crankcase inspection, and small, thin
pieces can enter the lter. A check of the
bearing edges together with inspection of the
crankcase and the lter normally provides a
good indication of the bearing condition.
Page 2 (15)

905-2.1
Checking
Checking the bearing edges

6.
6. Bearing edges can be checked with a
feeler that is able to follow the bearing
edge against the journal the whole way
round on each side. If white metal is missing at the edge, the tip of the feeler will
enter the hole, thus locating the damage.
In most cases this hole can be seen by the
naked eye as a dark spot when using a
strong ashlight.
7.
Wirefeeler
It is rather easy to make a feeler (see
sketch). The feeler should be made from
a piece of steel wire (e.g. a welding rod)
approx. 0.6 1 m long depending on the
engine type, and 2 to 3 mm thick. Approx. 7 to 10 mm of the wire should be
bent to an angle of approx. 65 to form a
feeler tip. Grind the tip smooth to obtain
the shape and dimension shown on the
sketch. Note that the thickness of the white
metal is approx. 1.5 mm, which is why the
tip should be less than 1.2 mm thick, and
bigger than the max. top clearance. At the
other end of the tip, a handle should be
made by bending a hook or similar in the
same direction as the tip.

M905010208C06
The No. 1 and the two aftmost main bearings are more difcult to access on the
whole circumference on each side, but it is
often possible to bend the feeler to suit
the situation and thus reach as far round
as possible.
Wire feeler
The above dimensions of the

wirefeeler are guideline values and
may depend on the engine type as well
as individual, personal designs.

An appreciable increase in clearance may

be an indication of loose staybolts or wear
of the lower shell.
10. If there is too large a difference in the
crankshaft deection readings (autolog)
check the clearance in the individual bearings.
M905010208C08
Bearing clearance checks should also be

carried out during timebased overhauls,
surveys and during crankcase inspections.

1.
The clearance in the thrust bearing was measured during testbed trials of the engine and noted down in the Adjustment Sheet' which is
inserted at the front of Volume I, OPERATION.
For a new engine the clearance is 0.5-1.0 mm,
and for an engine in service it must not exceed
2.0 mm.
1. To measure the wear in the thrust bearing,

it is necessary to dismount the foremost
segment stopper.
For dismantling the segment stopper, see
Procedure 905-3.2.
BM905-3.1 226 01
In service it is only necessary to measure the

wear of the thrust bearing pads, and to inspect
for white metal below the thrust bearing.
2.
A wear groove of 1 mm is positioned in the
uppermost thrust segment. (The segment
with thermometers).
If a feeler gauge of 0.1 mm is not able to

enter the groove (the wear is more than 0,9
mm), the thrust bearing must be overhauled.
3. Note down the wear for later reference.
GN905-3.1 224 02
2. To measure the wear, the thrust segment

has to be pressed against the thrust cam,
to eliminate any gap, i.e. by using a suitable
crowbar on the back of the segment.

Checking
905-5.1
1.
For checking the effectiveness of the axial vibration damper, it is necessary to measure the
longitudinal movements of the fore end of the
crankshaft during running.
The measurement (or reading) should be taken
at the same r/min as during the sea trials. (Preferably 90% and 100% of MCR.)
As different equipment can have been mounted
on the specific engines, the checking procedure
describes three different systems:
A: Electronic, with Axial Vibration Monitor
B. Mechanical, without angle encoder fore
C: Mechanical, with angle encoder fore.
A proximeter probe is built on to the lower part

of the damper housing. The probe is connected
to a control unit which displays peak-to-peak
movements and sends signals to the engine
control system.
KM905-7.1 35 01
A: Electronic, with Axial Vibration Monitor
1. Concerning overhaul and setting of the

electronic device, refer to makers instructions and Volume I, Operation, Chapter
701.
The peak-to-peak values displayed in mm
are to be compared with the original values
obtained during sea trial and the limits given in Volume I, Operation, Chapter 701.
If the peak-to-peak value exceeds the Normal Service Value, it is necessary to overhaul the axial vibration damper, see
Procedure 905-5.2.

1.
The chain is to be checked and, if necessary, dismantled and mounted in the same
way.
2. The chain can be accessed from within the
chainwheel frame.
Make a general inspection for loose

bolts and screws.
Inspect lube oil pipes for damage, and
check jet nozzles for possible stoppages or deformations.
Examine the rubber track of the guideways for cracks or other damage.

Replace the guideway if bits have

started to be plucked out of the rubber track.
4. Check the teeth of the chain wheels. If abnormal wear is found, take a measurement
(See Data).

of the teeth, make a drawing in scale 1:1 of
the teeth and wear profile.
For assessing the wear profile, contact
MAN B&W Diesel.
M906010238C05
In most cases, scratches caused by the

side plates of the chain will be found on
the sides of the teeth. Such scratches can
generally be considered normal.
6. The chains for the camshaft drive are
matched together to ensure an even load
distribution.
To keep such matching chains in their
pairs, the side plates of the outer link nearest to the assembled link have been
marked with year, month, day and chain
number.
Example:
No. 1 order,
840520 1A
840520 1B
(840520 2C, possible 3rd chain)
No. 2 order,
840520 2A
840520 2B
(840520 2C, possible 3rd chain)
On the same links there is an arrow (>)
which indicates the mounting direction.
Check the chains for cracks on possibly
defective rollers and side plates.
Check that the chain rollers can run freely
and that the chain links can freely move on
the pin and bushing (that they are not
seized between the pin and the bushing).
It is normal, however, that the rollers get
light, circumferential scratches during the
running-in period. These fine scratches are
of no importance and need not be considered.
It is recommended that each single link is
checked.

It may become necessary to disassemble

the chain if, for instance, cracked rollers or
seizures between pin and bushing have
been discovered during the inspection.
Note!
M906010243C01
Every time a chain link is disassembled,

a new link must always be fitted as the
link pin press-fit is destroyed when
breaking the chain.
2.
When a new link is fitted in one chain,

the corresponding link in the other chain
must also be renewed.
1. Remove the tension on the chain by loosening the chain tightener.

(See Procedure 906-2.3).
Turn the engine until the slack part of the
chain, with the chain link that is to be disassembled, is in a favourable position for
the work.
M906010238D02
2. Mount a wire round the link rollers a short

distance from the disassembly point, and
tighten the wire lightly with a tackle.
3.
Protect the link rollers over which the wire

is wrapped.
Note!
If the chain is to be completely removed,
contact MAN B&W Diesel for further information.
The riveting of the pins that are to be
pressed out is to be chiselled or ground
away.

Checking
As the upper shell of the camshaft bearing assembly has been dispensed with on
this engine, it is no longer necessary to
measure the top clearance of the camshaft
bearing.
1.
Dismount the inspection covers from the

front of the camshaft housing.
In the event of any signs of anomalies, the

bearing shell must be dismantled for closer
investigation and, if necessary, the bearing
shell must be replaced.
M906040225C01
Check for wipedout metal at the bearing

ends, and for fragments of metal in the
camshaft housing.
If no anomalies are found during the visual

inspection, dismantling need not be carried
out.
When checking the camshaft bearings, it is
recommended also to check the condition
of the fuel and exhaust cams.
See Procedures 9085 and 9093.

For assessment of the bearing condition,
see Volume I OPERATION, Chapter 708
Bearings.
M906040225O01
Inspect the entire surface of the bearing

journal for seizures.
D0634
D0665
If seizures are found on the bearing journal

surface (on account of bearing breakdown),
polish the surface with a ne carborundum
stone to reestablish a bright and smooth
surface.
By closely examining the sliding surface
of the bearing shell visually, an impression
can be formed of whether the lubrication of
the bearing surface has been insufcient or
entirely missing. Normally, camshaft bearing damage only occurs due to faulty lubrication.
Measure the thickness of the bearing shell
with a micrometer to check the amount of
wear.

3. Place the bearing cap on the camshaft and

mount the outermost bearing cap screw.
Note!
Be careful not to scratch the camshaft
surface.
M906040225M01
Relieve the hydraulic jack of pressure

to lower the camshaft. Remove the dial
gauge, the pieces of wood and the hydraulic jack from the camshaft housing.
2.
Tighten the outermost screw lightly by

hand until the clearance given in D0633
is reached. Then mount and tighten the innermost screw with a torque spanner. See
Data D0631. This procedure ensures that
the outermost screw will obtain the correct
torque.
Check the clearance D0633 on both sides

of the camshaft. Then mount the lubricating
oil pipe and the plug screws in the baseplate.

Checking
Checks during running

1.
908-2.1
1.
Check of valve spindle rotation:
The indicator will now follow the movements of the valve spindle and the air piston. During rotation of the valve spindle,
the top position of the indicator will change
about 6 mm, because of the ridge on the
piston.
During engine operation, the spindle must
rotate. The rotation can vary with unit and
engine load. In the event of no rotation, attention should be paid to avoid seat problems. When check of the valve rotation is
nished, lift the rotation indicator and lock
it in the top position.
M908020268C01
The engine must run when the valve function and spindle rotation are checked. Lift
the valve spindle rotation indicator, turn it
90 and let it rest on the air piston.

Check the tightness of the sealing rings

between the bottom piece and the exhaust
valve housing. IF water ows from the small
bore on the manoeuvring side of the exhaust valve, the lowermost sealing ring is
leaking.
If water ows from the any of the rings, the
exhaust valve must be dismounted and the
sealing rings replaced.

Checking
The exhaust valve roller guide can be partially checked while mounted on the engine,
using the following procedure:
2.
Lift the roller guide.

2. Remove the camshaft inspection cover.
Check the movability of the roller by turning

this by hand to ascertain if the roller moves
freely and without unnecessary resistance
or hard points.
Also inspect the surface of the roller
for possible damage marks, seizures or
scratches. Make sure that no traces of
bearing metal exist in the roller guide housing.
M908040221C02
Turn the engine to provide the maximum

space between the roller guide and the
cam disc.
5.
D0836
3. A more suitable and reliable method is

to check the roller guide and the bearing
clearance when the roller guide is dismounted.
For dismantling of the roller guide see Procedure 908-4.2.
M908040221C05
Check the clearance in the slide bearing by

lifting the roller relative to the roller guide
and measuring the difference in distance
between the cam disc and the roller in the
upper and lower positions of the roller.
4. Inspect the surfaces of the roller guide and

the roller for damage marks, seizures or
scratches.
5. To measure the clearance in the roller
guide slide bearing, place the roller guide
vertically upside down on a couple of
planks with the roller hanging freely.
6. Place a dial gauge against the roller. Then
lift the roller as much as the clearance permits, which makes it possible to read the
clearance directly on the dial, see Data.

1.00 mm is obtained.
2.
Continue turning AHEAD until the roller

guide again is lifted to D08-39, and the dial
gauge gives the reading 1.00 mm.
Calculate the angle B, which is the number
of degrees the crank throw has turned from
TDC position to the present position.
M908050217C02
3. Turn the roller guide in AHEAD direction

until lifted to D08-39, and the dial gauge
gives the reading 1.00 mm and calculate
the angle A, which is the number of degrees the crank throw has turned from TDC

1. To ensure satisfactory operation, the functioning of the fuel oil system shock absorber should be checked at regular intervals.
Normally, inspection is necessary only at
the intervals stated in the maintenance programme. The checks should be carried out
while the engine is operating.
2.
The air pulses occur when the shock absorber piston is working and the air below
the piston is being compressed and forced
out through the threaded hole.
Increasing amounts indicate a deteriorating

piston sealing. Excessive amounts indicate
that the shock absorber requires overhauling.

Checking
909-11.1
1.
The fuel valves must be given the utmost attention and care, as the greater part of irregularities that may occur during the running of the
engine can be attributed to defects in these
valves.
In order to obtain reliable results during testing

of the fuel valves, all fuel valves that are dismantled from the engine must be disassembled, cleaned, inspected and re-assembled
before testing.
GN909-11.1 204 01
If the engine gives normal performance in accordance with diagrams and exhaust temperatures, it is only necessary to inspect the fuel
valves after the service period stated in the
Checking and Maintenance Programme.
See Chapter 900-1.
2.
Note!
In the event that the slide-type fuel valve is
pressure tested without being cleaned
between the fuel nozzle and the cut-off slide,
the opening pressure value measured might
be considerably lower than specified.
D09-41
All fuel valves must be function-tested before

being mounted in the cylinder cover.
1. Pressure testing pump
If an air supply of 10 bar is not available,
working air of seven bar can be used. Use
only hydraulic oil (rust-preventing) with a
viscosity of between 7 and 10 cSt at 50C.
For operation of the pressure testing pump,

see the suppliers instructions.
2. Place the fuel valve in the test rig and

mount the nuts. Tighten the nuts to the
torque stated in Data. Mount the connecting
piece and the oil pipe between the pressure
testing pump and the fuel valve.
If the pressure testing pump has no built-in
outlet valve, use a connecting piece with a
valve.
DM909-6.3 101 02
Note that the high-pressure pump should

be periodically checked in accordance with
the suppliers instructions.

3. Pressure testing procedure

The subsequent items must be followed in
the sequence stated. Items 4, 6, 7 and 8
are each divided into the following four subitems:
A.
B.
C.
D.
Objective
Procedure
Acceptance criteria
Cause of fault.
4. Flushing and jet control

A. Objective:
To remove air in the system and check the
fuel jet.
BM909-11.1 236 04
B. Procedure:
The control handle must be in the OPEN position.
Slowly increase the working pressure until
straight jets of oil are ejected from the nozzle holes (no atomization).
C. Acceptance criteria:
There is to be a continuous jet of oil through
at least one of the nozzle holes.
Owing to the geometry of the internal part
of the nozzle and because the height to
which the spindle is lifted during pressure
testing is lower than the height it is lifted
during normal engine operation the fuel
oil will not necessarily flow from all of the
nozzle holes.
D. Cause of fault:
If the jets do not fulfil the above point C, the
cause may be:
Page 2 (11)
Dirt in the nozzle holes.
The nozzle is not mounted correctly.
MAN B&W Diesel A/S

Checking
5.
5. Atomization test
Note!
The reason is that the atomization test may

damage the valve because it makes the
needle oscillate, with a small lift at a very
high frequency. The high pressure drop
across the cut-off edge and the high contact pressure between slide and fuel nozzle, in combination with the poor lubricity of
the test oil, increase the risk of seizures between cut-off slide and nozzle.
BM909-11.1 236 05
Do NOT attempt to carry out an atomization test on slide type fuel valves, as this
may damage the cut-off slide and nozzle.
6.
All of these conditions involve the risk of
seizure between the cut-off slide and the
nozzle.
D09-40
6. Opening pressure
A. Objective:
To check the opening pressure.
B. Procedure:
The control handle is to be in the OPEN position.
Increase the oil pressure until oil is admitted through the nozzle holes.
Check the opening pressure on the pressure gauge. The pressure must correspond
to the pressure stated in Data D09-40.
If the opening pressure is lower than specified in D09-40, the cause may be that the
spring has sagged replace the spring, or
add a special thin disc.
BM909-11.1 236 06
D. Cause of fault:
If the opening pressure is higher than specified in D09-40, the cause may be that a
wrong type of spring is used replace the
spring in the spindle guide, if necessary, replace the complete spindle guide.

7.
Note!
Special thin discs are available as
spares.
If a spring or a disc has been changed, the
pressure testing procedure of the fuel valve
must be repeated from step 3.
7. Sealing test and sliding function
BM909-11.1 236 07
A. Objective:
To check the needle valve seat for tightness
and the slide for correct closing.
B. Procedure:
The control handle must be in the OPEN position.
Slowly increase the oil pressure to about 50
bar below the opening pressure. Maintain
the built-up pressure by moving the control
handle into the CLOSED position. Repeat the
procedure two or three times.
Oil must not flow from the nozzle holes.
The pressure drops relatively slowly to
about 15 bar, after which it drops quickly to
0 (the slide is pressed against the conical
seat and opens for circulation oil).
Note!
Oil flows out of the leak oil outlet when
the fuel valve is full of oil.
D. Cause of fault:
D.1 Sealing test
If oil flows out of the nozzle holes, the
cause is either:
Defective spindle guide at needle seat, or
a sticking spindle. Examine and/or replace the spindle guide.
Page 4 (11)
MAN B&W Diesel A/S
Fuel Valve
909-11.1
Checking
Too quick pressure drop:

the clearances of the movable parts,
inside the spindle guide are too large, or
the seat between the spindle guide and
the fuel valve head is damaged.
Examine and/or replace the spindle guide.
D.2 Sliding function
The pressure drops relatively slowly to
about 15 bar, after which it drops quickly to
0 (the slide is pressed against the conical
seat and opens for circulation oil).
Note!
There will always be an oil flow from the
leak oil outlet when the fuel valve is full of
oil.
If a quick pressure drop from 15 to 0 bar
cannot be registered:
The valve slide is sticking; or
the vent hole in the vent slide is blocked.
If so, disassemble and examine the spindle
guide, replace if necessary.

8. Pressure test, O-ring sealings

A. Objective:
To ensure that the leak oil (circulation oil)
remains in the closed system.
B. Procedure:
The control handle is to be in the OPEN position.
Build up a working pressure of about max.
10 bar until oil flows out of the leak oil outlet.
Close the leak oil outlet with a gasket and
plug screw.
Increase the working pressure to about 100
bar.
Move the control handle to the CLOSED position.
The built-up pressure of about 100 bar
should be maintained.
BG909-6.3 66 07
D. Cause of fault:
If oil leaks out at the union nut, the O-ring
inside the fuel valve head is defective, and
must be replaced.

Roller guide removed from engine

A more suitable and reliable method is to check
the roller guide and the bearing clearance after
the roller guide has been dismounted:
5. Dismount the roller guide from the engine.
6. Check the surface of the roller and the sliding surfaces of the roller guide, and measure any ovalness.
7. Turn the roller guide upside down and land
it in a vertical position on a couple of
planks, with the roller hanging freely.
BM909-15.1 207 07
Measure the clearance in the slide bearing

by placing a dial gauge against the roller
and lifting the roller as much as the clearance permits.

Cleaning
The dry cleaning method employs compressed
air to blow dry, solid, granules through the turbocharger, thus removing most of the deposits
which may have formed on the nozzle vanes
and turbine blades.
On account of their hardness, nut-shells, or
broken or artificially shaped pieces of activated
charcoal with a size of between 1.0 and max.
1.5 mm are particularly suited as blasting
agents.
Note!
We do not recommend the use of rice or
grain as cleaning materials, as these
may possibly stick in the exhaust gas
boiler.
It is not always possible to remove thick deposits with this dry cleaning method.
Therefore, in order to prevent the build-up of
thick deposits, the turbine must be cleaned after every 24 to 50 hours of operation.
Generally, turbocharger cleaning can be carried
out without, or with very little, reduction of the
engine load.
More detailed information regarding the amount
of granules to be used is stated on the instruction plate located close to the turbocharger.
Note!
Regarding water washing of turbocharger turbine, see turbine
manufacturers instructions.

Checking the Bolt Tightening

1. The holding down bolts and end chock bolts
must be checked for correct tightness at the
intervals indicated on the Data sheet.
For this purpose, raise the pressure on the
hydraulic tool slowly while constantly attempting to loosen the nut with the tommy
bar. The oil pressure indicated on the pressure gauge when the nut comes loose
(loosening pressure') is to be noted down
in the checking tables, see pages 4 and 5,
following which the bolts are tightened to
the normal tightening pressure.
EN912-1.1 205 01
The condition of the bolted joints, and thus

the general condition of the foundation, can
be effectively checked by comparing the tables from successive bolt checks.
If the loosening pressure' is below 80 per
cent of the tightening pressure, the relative
chocks shall always be checked for possible defects. If the chocks are in position and
in order, the bolts should be taken out for
inspection of threads and contact faces.
Checking of Epoxy Supporting Chocks
2. If a number of measuring pins have been
welded to the tanktop, the heights of the
epoxy supporting chocks are to be checked
immediately after finishing the checking of
the loosening pressures of the holding
down bolts and the retightening of these.
The distance between the measuring pins
and the bedplate is to be measured with a
blade gauge and noted down. Any possible
settling of the chocks during the intervals
between measurements can thereby be followed.

Side Chocks and Side Chock Liners

3. After fitting the liners to an 80 per cent contact area on both sides of the liners, knock
the liners a further 3 to 4 mm inwards.
The first time the ship is sailing in a fullyloaded condition after the engine has been
operating for 1,000 hours, all side chocks
should be checked to see whether the liners can be knocked further inward.
The fit of the side chock liners should be
checked with a feeler gauge each time the
loosening pressure of the holding down
bolts is checked, and thus at the same time
intervals.
GN912-2.1 203 03
The liners located in way of each main

bearing on either side of the engine must
be fitted and knocked into position simultaneously.
The feeler gauge is applied at the 7 points

indicated in the table on page 5, and the
measurements found are to be entered in
the relevant table. These results are used
to determine whether refitting or, possibly,
replacement of the liners is necessary.
If the measurements at 3 points or more have
increased 5/100 mm or more from the initial results, we recommend that the following procedure is followed:
1. Loosen the hexagon screws.
2. Try to knock the liner further inward.
3. Measure again at the 7 points indicated in
the table.
If this procedure does not improve the situation,
the liner must be removed, and it must be
checked that the actual contact area is more
than 80 per cent of the possible contact surface
areas on both sides of the liner.
The liners are secured in their correct position
by means of hexagon socket set screws with
cup point.

Studs or bolts provided with threads for attaching hydraulic tools and with circular nuts must
only be loosened and tightened up by means of
the hydraulic tools supplied.
1. The hydraulic tools, except those for the
main bearings, consist of a jack with an internal thread to suit the tool attachment
thread on the stud or bolt, and a spacer ring
which is to be placed under the jack and
around the nut that is to be loosened or
tightened.
BG913-1.0 15 02
2. For the main bearings, the hydraulic tool

consists of a double jack with two extension
studs. This jack is designed for the simultaneous dismantling of both nuts on one side
of the main bearing.

3. The jack(s) is/are connected, via a distributor block, to a high-pressure pump, which
is set to deliver hydraulic oil at the pressure
indicated on the jack and on the data sheet
in the relevant section of this instruction
book. The stud or bolt concerned is thereby
lengthened relative to the oil pressure applied and the piston area, and the nut can
be loosened or tightened, as required, with
the aid of a tommy bar.
The jacks must never be overloaded or exposed to blows or impacts. They are
marked with a Max. lift, which must not be
exceeded.
BG913-1.0 15 03
4. The hydraulic jacks are so designed that, in

the event that the Max. lift limit is exceeded, the pressure is relieved at the bottom of
the pressure chamber and the oil will be
pressed out into the space between the
stud and the spacer ring.
When the pressure is relieved in this way,
the lowermost sealing ring will in most cases be damaged. Therefore inspect and, if
necessary, replace this sealing ring.
The oil used must be pure hydraulic oil or
turbine oil (with a viscosity of about SAE
20). Oils such as, for instance, lubricating
oil (system oil) or cylinder lubricating oil
must not be used, as these oils are normally alkaline and can thus damage the backup rings.
The following instructions must be closely
followed to prevent accidents or damage,
and after use the jacks should be cleaned
and kept in the wooden boxes supplied.
Warning!
Eye protectors and gloves must be used
when using hydraulic tools.

Before screwing the nuts on, the threads and

the contact faces should be greased with a mixture of graphite and oil or molybdenum disulphide with a friction coefficient = 0.1-0.12
(e.g. MOLYKOTE paste type G).
The nuts should fit easily on the thread, and it
should be checked that they bear on the entire
contact face.
In the case of new nuts and studs, the nuts are
to be tightened and loosened two or three times
so that the thread may assume its definite
shape; thus obviating the risk of loose nuts.
Nuts secured with a split pin are to be tightened
to the stated torque and then to the next splitpin hole.
The torque spanner must not be used for torques higher than those stamped on it, and it
must not be damaged by hammering on it or the
like.
Rahsol Torque Spanner
The handle of the torque spanner is provided
with a scale indicating the torques at which the
spanner can be set.
For setting the spanner at the required torque,
there is a ball on a small arm at the end of the
handle.
When the ball is pulled, a small crank handle
appears. A spring-loaded slide in the handle is
provided with a mark which, when the crank
handle is turned, can be set at the required
torque on the scale. The torque spanner works
as follows:
The above-mentioned spring acts on a pawl
system in the handle. When the pre-set torque
has been reached, the pawl system is released,
at which moment a small jerk is felt in the spanner, and a small click is heard.
When the torque spanner is not in use, the
spring inside should be released by adjusting to
minimum torque.

= 0.10.12 (e.g. MOLYKOTE paste type G)
The nuts should fit easily on the thread, and it
should be checked that they bear on the entire
contact face.
Pre-tightening with a torque spanner
Before tightening the nuts according to a tightening gauge or tightening angle, they must be
pre-tightened with a torque spanner.
Apply a pre-tightening torque of:
thread M8 M20 = 50 Nm
This is in order to ensure a uniform basis for the
subsequent tightening with gauge or tightening
angle.
Tightening with a tightening gauge
After pre-tightening, place the tightening gauge
round the nut, and mark off with chalk on the
nut at slot A on the tightening gauge, and make
another chalk mark on the contact face at slot
B. Then tighten the nut until the two chalk
marks coincide.
Tightening without a tightening gauge
For tightening angles of e.g. 3045 and 60,
we usually do not deliver a tightening gauge.
Therefore, after pre-tightening, mark the angle
on a corner of the nut and on the contact face,
respectively. Then tighten the nut until the two
marks coincide.
When tightening new studs or bolts for the first
time, loosen again and repeat the procedure
including pre-tightening with a torque spanner,
to allow the parts to settle.

Screws and Nuts

MAN B&W Diesel
913-7.1
Locking
Some screwed and bolted connections on the

engine, as well as some movable joints, are secured against untimely loosening by means of
different types of locking devices.
1.
When reassembling the engine after overhauls,

it is vital that all such screws and nuts are
again locked correctly.
Make sure only to mount locking devices

on nuts and screws which have been
mounted with locking devices by the engine manufacturer.
1. Lock washers, tab washers, locking

plates, etc., must always be replaced. The
tab-like projections, etc., on the washers
are to be bent back over one of the flats of
the screw or nut concerned.
M913070207C01
Note!
2.
2. Used spring washers must be replaced.
To tighten a self-locking nut to a specific

torque, first measure the torque required to
turn the nut itself, and then add this torque
to the torque value stated on the data
sheet of a procedure.
M913070207C02
3. Self-locking nuts may only be used five

times. Therefore, give the nut a centre
punch mark each time it is loosened.

Locking wire should be fitted after the screws

or nuts have been tightened to the correct
torque. Do not overtighten or loosen the units
to get a correct alignment of the wire holes. Always fit new wire after tightening-up the units.
Fig. 2
Any tendency of the screws or nuts to loosen

will be counteracted by a tightening of the
locking wire. Do not secure more than four
units in a series, unless otherwise specified.
Fig. 3
Fig. 1: Insert wire, grasp the upper end of the

wire and bend it around the head of the screw,
then under the other end of the wire, be sure
that the wire is tight around the head.
Fig. 2: Twist the wire clockwise until it is just
short of the hole in the second screw. Keeping
the wire under tension, twist it until tight. When
the wire is tight, the wire shall have approximately 7-10 twists per 25 mm. One twist is a
twist of the wires through an arc of 180, equal
to half of a complete turn.

Cam Lock Washers with rising cams on one

side and radial teeth on the other.
Fig. 15: The washers are installed in pairs, cam
face to cam face. When the bolt and/or nut is
tightened the teeth grip and seat the mating
surfaces. The cam lock washer is locked in
place, allowing movement only across the face
of the cams. Any attempt from the bolt/nut to
rotate loose is blocked by the wedge effect og
the cams.

Molybdenum Disulphide (MoS2)

The following procedure is to be followed prior
to the mounting of metal surfaced parts which
are to function as seals.
Clean the surface with a cleaning fluid
and ensure that the entire surface is
completely free of grease.
Allow 5 minutes for the cleaning fluid to
evaporate.
With a clean leathercloth, and using circular movements, rub a mixture of finegrained particles of Molybdenum Disulphide (MoS2) and mineral oil (e.g. Molycote G-n Plus, or the like) hard onto the
metal surface.
Remove any excessive paste and ensure
that the metal surface is only coated with
a thin, uniform, layer of the above mixture.
Protect the wet paste and cloth from dust
or other foreign particles.

Vol. I OPERATION
Vol. II MAINTENANCE
Vol. III COMPONENTS, DESCRIPTIONS
The purpose of these books is to provide general guidance on operation and maintenance and
to describe the constructional features of a standard version of an MAN B&W main diesel engine. Deviations may be found in a specific plant. In addition, the books can be used for reference purposes, for instance in correspondence and when ordering spare parts.
It is essential that the following data is stated in spare parts orders as it is used by us to ensure
the supply of the correct parts for the individual engines:
1. Name of vessel
2. Engine No.
built by
3. Plate No.
4. Part No.
5. Quantity required (and description)
Example:

MAN B&W Diesel

901 Cylinder Cover
Cylinder Cover
The cylinder cover is made of steel.

On the 70-98MC type engines the cylinder cover is provided with welded-on
heat resistant material at the points of fuel oil injection in order to improve the
service condition.
Valve bores
The cover has a central bore for the exhaust valve, which is attached by
means of four studs and nuts.
The cover furthermore has bores for the fuel valves, starting valve, starting air
inlet, safety valve and indicator cock.
Cooling
A cooling jacket is mounted on the lower part of the cylinder cover, whereby a
cooling water space is formed.
Another cooling water space is formed around the exhaust valve seat, when
the exhaust valve is installed. These two spaces communicate through a large
number of cooling bores in the cover.
The water is supplied from the cooling jacket surrounding the cylinder liner and
passes through water connections to the cooling jacket surrounding the cylinder cover and, further on, through the cooling bores, to the space around the
exhaust valve seat.
From here the water is discharged to the main cooling water outlet pipe:
On some engine types, an amount of water is also passed directly from the
cylinder cover to the exhaust valve housing through a cooling water connection.
Tightening
The cylinder cover is tightened against the top of the cylinder liner with nuts
and long studs fitted in the cylinder frame. The nuts are tightened with hydraulic tools.
Sealing between the cylinder cover and cylinder liner is obtained by means of a
sealing ring of mild steel.
902 Piston with Rod and Stuffing Box

Piston
The piston consists of two main parts:

Piston Crown
Piston Skirt
The piston crown is tightened to the upper end of the piston rod, and the piston skirt is tightened to the piston crown.

Piston Rod
The piston rod has a through-going bore for the cooling oil pipe, which is secured to the piston rod top.
Cooling oil is supplied through a telescopic pipe connection on the guideshoe
or on the crosshead and passed through a bore in the piston rod foot and
through the cooling oil pipe in the piston rod, to the piston crown.
The oil is passed on, through a number of bores in the thrust part of the piston
crown, to the space around the cooling oil pipe in the piston rod.
From the bore in the piston rod foot, the oil is led through the crosshead to a
discharge spout and to a slotted pipe inside the engine framebox as well as
through a control device for checking the flow and temperature.
The piston rod foot rests on a face cut out in the crosshead pin.
A shim is inserted between the piston rod and the crosshead. The thickness of
the shim is predetermined to match the actual engine layout.
The piston rod is fastened to the crosshead pin with screws or studs and nuts.

Stuffing Box
The bore for the piston rod between the scavenge air space and the crankcase
is fitted with a piston rod stuffing box, which is designed to prevent the lubricating oil in the crankcase from being drawn up into the scavenge air space.
The stuffing box also prevents scavenge air (in the scavenge air space) from
leaking into the crankcase.
The stuffing box housing consists of two parts, which are bolted together.
Scraper/sealing
rings
The housing is provided with a number of machined ring grooves:
The uppermost groove holds a scraper ring with oblique edges, which
serves to prevent sludge from the scavenge box from being drawn
down to the other rings.
Furthermore, a sealing ring is fitted below the scraper ring (except on 35MC
type engines).
The ring grooves in the middle are fitted with sealing rings.
The lowermost ring grooves are fitted with scraper rings which scrape
the lubricating oil off the piston rod.
Oil which is scraped off the piston rod is returned to the crankcase through
bores in the stuffing box housing.
Through bores in the housing and a pipe, the stuffing box communicates with
a control funnel on the outside of the engine, which enables the sealing/scraping performance to be checked.
Gaps at the ends of the ring segments ensure that the rings will bear against
the piston rod even in worn condition.
903 Cylinder Liner and Cylinder Lubrication

Cylinder Frame
The cylinder section of the engine consists of a cylinder frame with a bolted-on
or integrated camshaft housing. The cylinder section is tightened together with
the engine framebox and the bedplate by means of stay bolts. Alternatively as
a complete welded assembly integrating the scavenge air receiver into the cylinder frame.
Bores and openings Central bores at the top of the cylinder frame enclose the cylinder liners.
Central bores in the bottom of the cylinder frame enclose the piston rod stuffing boxes.
On the exhaust side of the cylinder frame there are openings which connect
the scavenge air space around the cylinder liner with the longitudinal scavenge
air receiver of the engine.

spaces.
Cylinder cover
studs
Studs for fastening the cylinder cover are mounted in the cylinder frame.
Cylinder Liner and The cylinder liner is fitted with a cooling jacket. The cooling water is supplied
Cooling Jacket
at the lower part of the cooling jacket.
On slim-type liners, the water continues directly to the upper part of the cooling jacket, whereas on the bore-cooled type liner, the water first passes
through the cooling bores. From the top of the cooling jackets, the water flows
through water connections to the cooling jacket on the lower part of the cylinder cover.
Leakage of cooling water is prevented by silicone rubber rings.
The cylinder liner is tightened against the top of the cylinder frame by the
tensioning force from the cylinder cover studs being transmitted via the cylinder cover.
Scavenge air ports
The part of the cylinder liner which is located in the scavenge air space of the
cylinder frame is provided with a number of scavenge air ports, which are un
covered by the piston when this is in its bottom position. The scavenge air
ports are bored at an oblique angle to the axis of the cylinder liner so as to
give the scavenge air a rotary movement in the cylinder.
Cylinder lubrication
In the free part of the cylinder liner, between the cooling jacket and the cylinder
frame, there are a number of bores with non-return valves for the supply of lubricating oil to the cylinder.
PC-ring
On 80-98MC type engines a piston cleaning (PC) ring is mounted at the top of
the cylinder liner. The purpose of the PC-ring is to prevent the building-up of
deposits on the piston topland and, in turn, prevent the wiping away of the cylinder lubricating oil. Consequently, the PC-ring contributes to reducing the
wear of liners and rings.
Cylinder
Lubricators
The engine is equipped with mechanically or electronically controlled cylinder

lubricators for lubrication of the running surface of liners and rings.
Regarding the cylinder lubricators proper, reference is made to the special instruction manuals supplied.

The crankshaft is provided with a chain wheel for the camshaft drive and a
turning wheel. Furthermore, a tuning wheel, a torsional vibration damper and a
chain wheel drive for 2nd order and 4th order moment compensators are installed, if required according to vibration calculations.
Marine engines (except geared plants):
At the aftmost end of the engine, a thrust bearing is fitted.
The thrust bearing serves the purpose of transmitting the axial thrust of the
propeller through propeller shaft and intermediate shafts to the ships hull.
The crankshaft is provided with a thrust collar which transmits the thrust to a
number of segments mounted in a thrust shoe on either side of the thrust collar.
The thrust shoes rest on surfaces in the thrust bearing housing and are held in
place by means of stoppers or cross bars. The segments have white metal
cast onto the wearing faces against the thrust collar. See also Volume I, OP
ERATION, Chapter 708.
The thrust bearing is lubricated by the pressure lubrication system of the en
gine. The oil is supplied between the segments through spray pipes and spray
nozzles.
The thrust bearing is provided with alarm, slow-down, and shut-down devices
for low lube oil pressure and high segment temperature. See also Volume I,
OPERATION, Chapter 701.
Stationary engines and geared marine plants:
The crankshaft is provided with a collar for the guide bearing. The purpose of
the guide bearing is to keep the crankshaft in its proper position in the axial di
rection.
Axial Vibration
Damper
To counteract heavy axial vibrations, and any resultant adverse forces and
vibrations, the crankshaft is provided with an axial vibration damper. See also
Section 912, Assembly of large parts further on in this text.
The damper consists of a piston and a slit-type housing. The piston is made
as an integrated collar on one of the main bearing journals, and the housing is
mounted on the pertaining main bearing support.
The axial movement is damped as a result of the restrictions incorporated in
the bores which interconnect the oil-filled chambers on the two sides of the
piston.
Lubricating oil is supplied to both sides of the piston from the main system.

A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Turning Gear
The turning gear is attached to the engine bedplate and is driven by an electric
motor incorporating a disc brake.
Through a planetary gearing, the motor drives a horizontal shaft equipped with
a gear wheel which can be axially displaced manually, so as to engage with the
turning wheel of the engine.
The turning gear is provided with a safety arrangement consisting of a safety
lever which must be lifted before the gear wheel of the turning gear can be
made to engage with the turning wheel.
When the safety lever is in its bottom position, it prevents the gear wheel of
the turning gear from engaging with the turning wheel.
Immediately the lever is lifted away from the disengaged position, an interlock
valve inserted in the starting air system of the engine is actuated. This interlock
prevents starting air from being supplied to the engine as long as the turning
gear is in the engaged position.
Warning!
Dismantling of
working parts:
During any dismantling of working parts of the

engine, the turning gear must be in the engaged
position in order to prevent outside forces from
turning the engine, thus causing injuries to personnel or damage to the machinery.
See Volume II, MAINTENANCE, DATA pages.
Pressure testing of starting

valves:
The turning gear must be in the disengaged position during pressure testing of starting valves, as
a leaky valve may cause the engine to rotate, and
damage the turning gear.
See Volume I, OPERATION, Chapter 703.
906 Mechanical Control Gear

Chain Drive
The camshaft with cams for operating the fuel pumps, exhaust valves and indicator drive (option) is driven from the crankshaft through a chain drive.
The chain drive consists of one or more roller chains running on chain wheels
fitted on the crankshaft and the camshaft. The chain is kept tightened by a
chain tightener placed in the chain casing between the crankshaft and the
camshaft.
The long free lengths of the chain are guided by rubber-clad guide bars. Lubricating oil is supplied through spray pipes fitted at the guide bars and chain
wheels.
Page 7 (23)
A90030-0009

MAN B&W Diesel
Camshaft
The camshaft is made in one or more sections.

If it is made in two or more sections, the sections are assembled by means of
flange couplings.
The camshaft has, for each cylinder:
one cam for operation of the fuel pump
one cam for operation of the exhaust valve
one cam for operation of the indicator drive (option)
The fuel pump and exhaust valve cams are shrunk on to the shaft by heating,
whereas the indicator cams are in two parts, which are assembled with fitted
bolts.
The camshaft rotation constantly follows that of the crankshaft.
Bearings
The camshaft is carried in bearing assemblies which are fitted in the roller
guide housings. See also Volume I, OPERATION, Chapter 708.
Engine timing
The engine timing is adjusted by forcing lubricating oil in between the cams,
couplings or chain wheel and the shaft, which enables the parts to be turned in
relation to each other. See Volume II, Chapters 906, 908 and 909.
Pin gauges
After the engine has been testrun, the camshaft parts and the cylinder frame
will be provided with pin gauge marks, and the necessary pin gauges are delivered together with the engine, enabling the camshaft timing to be checked and
readjusted if the parts have been dismantled.
Indicator Valve
Each cylinder is fitted with an indicator valve, which communicates with the
combustion chamber of the cylinder through a bore.
Operating Instructions!
When opening the indicator valve, the spindle must be screwed right back to
the stop in order to avoid burns and carbon in the guide.
Note!
For indicator valves of the double-seated design with a spring-loaded closing
face:
In order to prevent overstressing, close the valve lightly before starting the
engine, and retighten the valve when the engine has reached its normal service temperature.

Moment
Compensators
On the basis of calculations, the engine may be provided with fly

weights to counteract engine forces and moments.
Caution!
If the chain drives for the compensators have been dismantled, the
flyweights must be positioned correctly in relation to the crankshaft.
See the instruction book, Volume II, MAINTENANCE.
Incorrectly fitted moment compensators may excite heavy vibrations.
1st order moment
Applicable on 4-cylinder engines. The moment compensator is arranged

as adjustable flyweights on both ends of the crankshaft.
Alternatively, the 1st order moment compensator can be positioned in
the main chain drive.
This moment compensator consists of a (new) chain-tightener wheel
with an incorporated flyweight and a flyweight rotating with the crank
shaft.
2nd order moment
Applicable on 4-5 and 6-cylinder engines. The moment compensator is

arranged as flyweights built into the main chain drive.
On some engines, flyweights are built into a second chain drive, which
is driven from the opposite end of the crankshaft. This chain drive is
equipped with a spring-loaded chain tightener, which on some engines
is equipped with a hydraulic damper.
Optionally, an electrically driven compensator can be installed.
4th order moment
The moment compensator is arranged as flyweights built into chain

drives on both ends of the camshaft. Each chain drive is equipped with
a spring-loaded chain tightener, and each chain casing is fitted with a
relief valve.
907 Starting Air System

Starting Air System
The starting air system consists of the manoeuvring system and the
starting air components, which comprise:
Main Starting Valve
Starting Valves
The manoeuvring system is of electric/pneumatic design.
Page 9 (23)
A90030-0009

MAN B&W Diesel
Main Starting
Valve
The main starting valve is interposed in the starting air main pipe.
The main starting valve consists of a large ball valve and, optionally, a smaller
ball valve for slow-turning prior to starting the engine, which is fitted as a bypass for the large valve. Both valves are operated by pneumatic actuators.
If the smaller ball valve is installed, an adjusting screw will be mounted for setting the slow-turning speed.
Furthermore, a non-return valve is incorporated to prevent blow-back in the
event of excessive pressure in the starting air line.
The main starting valve is equipped with a blocking device consisting of a plate
which, by means of a handwheel, can be made to block the actuators.
The ball valves and their actuators are, together with the non-return valve and
blocking device, built together to form a unit.
Warning!
During all inspections of the engine, the blocking device of the main starting
valve must be in the BLOCKED position.
The only exception is when the starting valves are being tested for tightness,
in which case the blocking device of the main starting valve must be in the
WORKING position and the shut-off valve for the starting air distributor must
be in the CLOSED position. See Volume I, operation, Chapter 703, OPERATION after arrival in port.
Starting Air
Distributor
The starting air distributor controls the opening and the closing of the starting
valves.
Starting Valve
The starting valve (spring-loaded) is fitted on the cylinder cover. It is controlled

by control air from the starting air distributor.
When the main starting valve is open, the chamber below the piston of the
starting valve is pressurised through the starting air pipe.
The starting valve is kept closed by the spring. When the chamber above the
piston of the starting valve is pressurised with control air from the starting air
distributor, the starting valve opens, and starting air now flows from the starting
air pipe to the cylinder.
When the starting period is finished, the chamber above the piston is vented
through the vent pipe of the starting air distributor, and the starting valve will
close.
The starting air in the chamber below the piston and the starting air pipe is
vented slowly through small holes in the starting air pipe.

908 Exhaust Valve
Exhaust Valve
Each cylinder is equipped with an exhaust valve, which is mounted in a central

bore in the cylinder cover. The valve housing is attached with four studs and
nuts to form a gas-tight seal against a seat in the cylinder cover.
Valve housing
The valve housing has an exchangeable bottom piece.

The bore for the valve spindle is provided with an exchangeable spindle guide
liner.
Cooling
The valve housing is water cooled. The cooling water is passed to the valve
housing after it has passed the cylinder cover. The water is discharged from
the upper part of the valve housing.
On the front of the valve housing there is a cleaning cover through which the
cooling water space can be checked and cleaned.
Valve spindle
The part of the spindle stem which travels within the sealing arrangement of
the air cylinder is coated with a wear resistant mixture of metal carbide and super alloy, applied by the HVOF process.
On the lower cylindrical part of the valve spindle a vane wheel is fitted which
causes the valve spindle to rotate while the engine is running.
Lifting/rotation check rod:
To enable checking the functioning of the exhaust valve while the engine is
running, a lifting/rotation check rod is mounted on top of the hydraulic cylinder on the exhaust valve.
Spindle rotation is indicated by regular changes in the top and bottom positions of the check rod.
Note!
This check rod is only for checking purposes, and must not be permanently
activated.
Pistons
At the top of the spindle, two pistons are fitted:
1.
Air piston
The piston serves to close the exhaust valve. The piston is locked to
the spindle by a two-piece conical ring.
2.
Hydraulic piston
The piston serves to open the exhaust valve.
The hydraulic piston has two piston rings and a damper arrangement,
designed to dampen the closing of the valve.
Page 11 (23)
A90030-0009

MAN B&W Diesel
Note!
After the exhaust valve has been overhauled, it is important to check the
damper, to avoid knocking.
See Volume II, MAINTENANCE, Procedure 908.
Air cylinder
The air cylinder is mounted on top of the valve housing. Air for closing the exhaust valve is supplied through a non-return valve to the space below the piston.
A safety valve is mounted in the bottom of the air cylinder. The safety valve is
connected to the drain pipe which leads to the camshaft housing.
Hydraulic cylinder
The hydraulic cylinder is attached with studs and nuts on the air cylinder on
top of the exhaust valve housing.
The exhaust valve is opened by the valve spindle being forced down by the
piston in the hydraulic cylinder.
Throttle/valve:
On some engine types, a combined throttle/valve designed for deaerating the
oil system is fitted at the top of the cylinder.
When the exhaust valve is closed, the pressure in the hydraulic cylinder is low.
A thrust spring opens the valve, enabling oil and air, if any, to escape through
the throttle.
The oil is led through a duct to the space around the air cylinder and is
drained off through a bore X, together with leakage oil from the piston.
When the exhaust valve is activated, the high oil pressure closes the valve, and
the oil flow stops.
Sealing System
Sealing air (where used):

A sealing air arrangement is fitted around the spindle shaft below the air cylinder.
The sealing air is supplied from the air cylinder via a sealing air control unit.
The sealing air will prevent the exhaust gas and particles from penetrating upwards and wearing out the running surfaces and polluting the pneumatic system of the valve gear.
The oil content in the air from the air cylinder improves the service condition of
the sealing rings.
The sealing air control unit contains a valve which automatically cuts off the air
flow when the engine is in FINISHED WITH ENGINE status, and a filter housing.
Page 12 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Sealing oil (where used):
A sealing oil arrangement is fitted around the spindle shaft below the air cylinder.
The sealing oil is supplied from a control unit fitted on top of the exhaust valve
hydraulic actuator.
During the exhaust valve lifting period, oil escapes from the hydraulic actuator
through the restriction chamber to the control unit which, in turn, gives a certain amount of oil (dosage oil) to the exhaust valve spindle.
The sealing oil will prevent the exhaust gas and particles from penetrating upwards and wearing out the running surfaces and polluting the pneumatic system of the valve gear.
The oil improves the service condition of the sealing rings.
Hydraulic Valve
Actuating Gear
The exhaust valve is actuated by a cam on the camshaft through a hydraulic

transmission.
Hydraulic cylinder
The hydraulic cylinder is attached to the camshaft housing by studs and nuts.
A piston enclosed in the hydraulic cylinder rests on a thrust piece in the neck
of the roller guide and is locked to the roller guide by a bayonet joint.
The hydraulic cylinder on the camshaft housing is connected to the hydraulic
cylinder on the exhaust valve by a high-pressure pipe.
Oil is supplied from the lubricating oil system through a non-return valve.
Leakage oil from the hydraulic cylinder on the exhaust valve is drained through
a pipe connection.
Puncture Valve
On 4-cylinder reversible engines as well as on 5-cylinder reversible 50MC engines, a puncture valve may be mounted on the exhaust valve actuator. During
starting, this valve prevents the exhaust valve from opening during the first part
of the actuator pistons upward stroke.
This function prevents the starting valve and exhaust valve from being open at
the same time, thus ensuring a safe start.
Page 13 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

909 Fuel Oil System
Fuel Pump
Each engine cylinder is equipped with its own fuel pump, which is mounted on
the camshaft housing over the camshaft section corresponding to the cylinder
concerned.
The pump housing is attached to the camshaft housing by studs and nuts.
The square base of the fuel pump housing is provided with a groove to receive
any leakage oil, which is subsequently drained off through a drain pipe.
In the base, a bore is provided for at toothed rack, i.e. the regulating guide,
which controls the quantity of fuel oil delivered by the pump.
Furthermore, for the VIT-type fuel pump, another bore is provided above the
bore for the regulating guide. This bore is provided with a rack, i.e. the timing
guide, which controls the engine timing.
At the top, the pump housing is closed by a top cover.
The top cover is provided with a suction valve and a puncture valve. These
two valves are on some engine types combined into one unit.
The pump housing contains the plunger and barrel. The plunger and barrel are
matched parts, and must not be replaced individually.
The pump plunger is provided with a guide block designed to travel in the
milled keyway in the regulating guide. At the bottom it has a foot which rests
on a steel disc in the bayonet joint at the roller guide neck. A clearance of
approx. 0.1 mm between the plunger foot and the roller guide permits turning
of the plunger in the roller guide.
The regulating guide is able to turn in the bottom of the pump housing. On the
outside the regulating guide has a toothed rim to mesh with the above-mentioned toothed rack at the base of the pump housing. The toothed rim and
toothed rack are marked with lines enabling the parts to be positioned correctly after disassembly. The toothed rack is linked together with the regulating
gear of the engine through a spring-loaded connection. Thus, in the event of a
sticking pump plunger, the regulating gear for the remaining fuel pumps will not
be blocked.
The pump barrel is provided with oil cut-off holes, which are covered and un
covered during the travel of the plunger within the barrel. This function, in con
junction with the turning of the plunger effected by the regulating gear, serves
to regulate the amount of oil injected into the engine cylinder.
Two screw plugs are fitted in the pump housing opposite the cut-off holes of
the barrel. The oil jets which are ejected through the cut-off holes at the end of
the delivery stroke will hit the screw plugs, which can be replaced when they
are eroded.
Page 14 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Injection timing
Fuel pumps without VIT (Variable Injection Timing):

The pump barrel is attached to the top cover by means of screws.
The lower part of the barrel is guided in the bore of the pump housing. Two
sets of O-rings and back-up rings are fitted in grooves on the outside of the
barrel and the pump cover to seal between pump barrel/pump cover and
housing.
A number of semi-circular shims are inserted between the top cover and the
pump housing. By removing or inserting such shims, the pump barrel can be
slightly lowered or raised in relation to the plunger, and in this way the initial
moment of fuel oil injection into the engine cylinder can be adjusted, and the
maximum combustion pressure thus changed.
Refer to Volume II, Chapter 909, regarding adjustment of the maximum combustion pressure.
VIT-type fuel pumps:
The pump barrel is guided at the top and bottom of the pump housing. Low
friction sealing rings are fitted in grooves in the barrel to seal between barrel
and housing. The barrel is provided with a drain bore between the sealing rings
at the lower end.
The pump barrel has a threaded lower end which fits into the internal threads
of the timing guide.
The timing guide has a gear rim to mesh with the upper toothed rack at the
base of the pump housing. The gear rim and toothed rack are marked with
lines enabling the parts to be positioned correctly after disassembly. The
toothed rack is linked to a servo-air cylinder which is controlled mechanically
or electronically in relation to the engine load. The position of the upper
toothed rack determines the vertical position of the barrel relative to the
plunger through the threaded connection.
In this manner the initial moment of fuel oil injection into the cylinder can be
adjusted by a servo-air cylinder.
The pump barrel is prevented from turning by a guide screw mounted in the
pump housing.
Puncture valve
In the top cover of the pump, a puncture valve is fitted. The puncture valve
consists of a piston which communicates with the control air system of the engine. In the event of actuation of the shut-down system, and when
STOP is activated, compressed air is supplied to the top of the piston, causing
the piston with pin to be pressed downward and keep the suction valve in the
open position. This will puncture the oil flow to the fuel valve. As long as the
puncture valve is activated, the fuel oil is returned through bores to the pump
housing, and no injection takes place.
Page 15 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Fuel Oil Injection
During the suction stroke, the spring-loaded suction valve opens and the delivery chamber is filled with oil. As soon as the plunger has covered the cut-off
holes during its upward movement in the pump barrel, the injection commences through the fuel valves. The injection will last until the cut-off holes are
uncovered by the oblique cut-off edges of the plunger, following which the oil
is forced through two milled grooves at the side of the plunger and out through
the cut-off holes of the barrel during the rest of the delivery stroke.
Shock absorber
A shock absorber is installed on each pump housing or in the main fuel pipe to
take up pressure variations.
Fuel Pump
Actuating Gear
The camshaft housing contains the fuel pump and exhaust valve actuating gear
for each cylinder.
The fuel pump is actuated by a cam on the camshaft. The movement is transmitted through the roller guide to the plunger in the barrel of the pump housing
which through the high-pressure pipes is connected with the fuel valves on
the cylinder cover.
Reversible engines:
The roller guide of each fuel pump incorporates an angular displaceable reversing link.
Reversing is achieved by shifting the roller in the fuel pump drive mechanism at
each cylinder. The link connecting the roller guide and roller is provided with a
reversing arm, and a pivot is mounted at the top end of the reversing arm. The
pivot travels in a reversing guide connected to an air cylinder. The link is selflocking in either the ahead or astern position without the aid of external forces.
Each cylinder is reversed individually, and the reversing mechanism is activated
by compressed air.
The reversing arrangement may incorporate a damper in order to reduce the
mechanical stresses.
Fuel Oil HighPressure Pipes
All high-pressure pipes in the system are provided with a protective outer pipe.
The space between the pipe and the protective outer pipe communicates,
through bores in the union nipples, with a drain bore in the pump top cover.
Fuel Oil Leakage

Alarm
A fuel oil leakage alarm is required for Unattended Machinery Spaces, UMS.
35-98MC:
Each fuel pump is, via drain pipes, connected to a common drain tank, which
incorporates a level switch. The drain tank is also equipped with an overflow
pipe, which has a small drain bore below, whereby oil from small leakages can
be drained to the outlet, without actuating the level switch.
In the event of pipe fractures or major leakages in the system, the above-mentioned bore will not be large enough to allow the increased oil quantity to pass,
and the oil level in the drain tank will rise until it reaches the level of the over
flow pipe. The rising oil level will cause the level switch to set off an alarm.
Page 16 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

50-98MC:
Alternatively to the common drain tank, the drain pipes on 50-98MC engines
can be connected to a diaphragm valve, which sets off an alarm and activates
the puncture valve in order to stop the fuel oil flow from the pertaining pump.
On 60-98MC engines, which are provided with pneumatically operated fuel
pump roller guide lifting gear, automatic activation of the lifting gear by the diaphragm valve can be arranged in order to stop the fuel oil flow from the pertaining pump.
Fuel Valve
The fuel valve consists of a valve head and a valve housing. Fitted within the
valve housing is a non-return valve and a spindle and spindle guide with a
pressure spring, and a nozzle.
The spindle may be provided with a cut-off slide. When the fuel valve is fitted
in the cylinder cover, the valve parts are tightened together by the pressure
from the securing nuts.
Functioning
The functioning of the fuel valve is as follows:

The electrical fuel oil primary pump circulates preheated oil through the fuel
pump and fuel valve. The fuel oil passes through the fuel valve, leaving through
a circulation bore and the return oil pipe on the valve head.
When the pressure at the beginning of the fuel pumps delivery stroke has
reached the predetermined pressure, the circulating bores is closed.
When the pressure has reached the predetermined opening value for the fuel
valve, the spindle will be lifted and oil injected through the nozzle into the engine cylinder.
On completion of the fuel pumps delivery stroke, the valve spindle is pressed
against its seat and injection now ceases. Then the circulating bore is uncovered, and oil starts to recirculate through the valve.
910 Turbocharger System

Air System
The engine is supplied with scavenge air from one or more turbochargers, depending on the engine type and layout.
The engine exhaust gas drives the turbine wheel of the turbocharger and,
through a common shaft, the turbine wheel drives the compressor wheel.
The compressor draws air from the engine room, through the air filters. From
the compressor outlet, the air passes through the charging air pipe to the
charging air cooler where the air is cooled down.
The charging air pipe, with compensator, is insulated.
Page 17 (23)
A90030-0009

MAN B&W Diesel
The air cooler incorporates a water mist catcher, which is designed to separate
condensate from the air.
See also Charging Air Cooler further on in this Section.
When the air has passed the water mist catcher, it is pressed into the scav
enge air receiver through non-return valves. The non-return valves open by
pressure from the turbocharger.
From the scavenge air receiver, the air flows to the cylinder through the scavenge air ports when the piston is in the bottom position. When the exhaust
valves open, the exhaust gas is pressed into a common exhaust gas receiver,
from where the gas drives the turbine of the turbocharger with an even and
steady pressure
Scavenge Air
Receiver
The scavenge air receiver is a container having a large volume. The receiver is
bolted on to the cylinder frame, or alternatively integrated into the cylinder
frame, if welded. See Chapter 903.
Scavenge air is collected in the receiver after the air has passed through the
cooler, the water mist catcher and the non-return valves.
The receiver and the cylinder frame communicate through large openings.
The scavenge air receiver is provided with man-hole covers and a safety valve.
Auxiliary Blowers
The engine is provided with two or more auxiliary blowers. The suction sides
are connected to the space after the water mist catcher. The discharge sides
are connected to the scavenge air receiver. Separate non-return valves are installed at the suction side or discharge side of the auxiliary blowers, in order to
prevent reversed air flow.
See also item, Non-return valves, further on.
El. panels for

auxiliary blower
See special instructions supplied by the engine builder.
Running with
auxiliary blowers
During the starting of the engine, and when the engine is running at low load,
the turbocharger is not able to supply enough air for the engine process. In
these cases a pressure switch will automatically start the auxiliary blowers.
When the auxiliary blowers are operating, they draw air from the engine room
through the turbochargers air filter and compressor side.
Page 18 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Warning!
If the auxiliary blowers do not start during low-load running (because of
faults, or because the switch for the blowers is not in AUTO position), unburned fuel oil may accumulate on top of the pistons.
This will involve the risk of a scavenge air box fire.
In order to avoid such a fire:
obtain permission to stop the engine

stop the engine
remove any unburned fuel oil from the top of the pistons
re-establish the supply of scavenge air
start the engine
Note: the switch for the auxiliary blowers should be in

AUTO position during all modes of engine control, i.e.:
remote control
control from engine side control console.
When the auxiliary blowers are operating, they draw air from the engine room
through the turbochargers air filter and compressor side.
The non-return valves fitted after the water mist catcher are now closed as a
result of partial vacuum and gravitation acting on the valve flaps.
There will be a lack of air supply if the non-return valves do not close.
Non-Return Valves
It is of the utmost importance that the non-return valves of the auxiliary blowers always function correctly and move easily. This can be checked either by
moving the valves manually in connection with the regular scavenge port inspections, or via locally placed inspection covers.
The non-return valves protect the blowers and engine during:
Start-up of the auxiliary blowers
Running with auxiliary blowers.
Starting the auxiliary blowers:
1.
Owing to the relatively high starting current, the blowers start in se

quence, with 6-10 seconds in between.
The non-return valve of the blower that has not yet started must be in
the closed position to prevent the blower from rotating backwards. Otherwise, there is a risk that the electric motor will burn out when it starts.
2.
If an auxiliary blower fails to start, the non-return valve must be in the

closed position. Otherwise, the operating blower will not be able to
draw fresh air in through the turbocharger and air cooler. This is due to
differences in the air flow resistance.
Page 19 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Running with auxiliary blowers:
If an auxiliary blower fails during running, the non-return valve must close to
ensure the continued supply of fresh air to the engine. See Starting the auxiliary blowers, Item 2, above.
Exhaust Gas
Receiver
From the exhaust valves, the exhaust gas is led to the exhaust gas receiver
where the pulsatory pressure from the individual exhaust valves is equalized
and led to the turbocharger at a constant pressure.
The exhaust gas receiver is fastened to the seating by flexible supports. Compensators are inserted between the receiver and the exhaust valves, and between the receiver and the turbocharger.
Inside the exhaust gas receiver, a protective grating is mounted before the turbocharger.
The exhaust gas receiver and the exhaust pipe are insulated.
Charging Air
Cooler
The charging air cooler insert is of the block type. It is mounted in a housing
which is welded up of steel plates.
The cooler housing is provided with inspection covers.
The cooler is designed with an air reversing chamber which incorporates a water mist catcher. The water mist catcher is built up of a number of lamellas
which separate the condensation water from the scavenge air during the passage of the air flow.
The separated water is collected in the bottom of the cooler housing from
which it is removed by a drain system.
Caution!
It is important to check that the drain functions correctly, as otherwise water
droplets may enter the cylinders. See Volume I Operation, Chapter 706,
Cleaning of Turbochargers and Air Coolers.
An alarm device for high water level in the drain system is installed.
911 Safety Equipment

Safety Valves,
Cylinder Cover
Page 20 (23)
Each cylinder cover is provided with a spring-loaded safety valve which is set
to open at a pressure somewhat higher than the maximum firing pressure in
the cylinder.
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Relief Valves
On the exhaust side of the engine a number of spring-loaded relief valves are
fitted, which will open in the event of excessive pressure in the crankcase/
chain casing, for instance as a result of the ignition of oil mist.
Warning!
Keep the areas around the relief valves free of oil, grease, etc. to prevent the
risk of fire caused by hot air/gas emitted in the event that the relief valves
open.
Regarding how to:
avoid evaporation of the lubricating oil in the crankcase,
detect oil mist in the crankcase using an Oil Mist Detector.
see Volume I, OPERATION, Chapter 704.
Warning!
Do not stand near crankcase doors or relief valves or in corridors near
doors to the engine room casing in the event of an alarm for:
a)
b)
c)
d)
oil mist
high lube oil temperature
no piston cooling oil flow, or
scavenge box fire
Alarms b, c and d should be considered as pre-warnings of a possible increasing oil mist level.
See also our Service Letter SL97-348/ERO.
Note!
If there has been a crankcase explosion, the complete flame arrester of the
relief valves must be replaced.
Safety Valve,
Scavenge Air
Receiver
The scavenge air receiver is fitted with a safety valve which is set to open
should the pressure in the scavenge air receiver exceed a value somewhat
higher than the normal scavenge air pressure of the engine.
In some cases it may be necessary to open the valve manually, see Volume I,
Chapter 704, "Turbocharger Surging".
Page 21 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Safety Cap in
Starting Air Line
Each starting valve inlet pipe is provided with a safety cap. The safety cap
consists of a bursting disc enclosed by a perforated cylinder and a perforated cover in order to protect any bystanders, in the event of a burst.
The cover is provided with a check plate, which shows if the bursting disc has
been damaged.
If the bursting disc of the safety cap is damaged by excessive pressure in the
starting air line, overhaul or replace the starting valve which caused the burst,
and fit a new disc.
If a new disc is not available immediately, turn the cover in relation to the cylinder, in order to reduce the leakage of starting air. Fit a new bursting disc and
return the cover to the open position at the first opportunity.
912 Assembly of large Parts

Bedplate
The bedplate is made in one or more sections, depending on the number of

cylinders. If there are two or more sections, these are joined together with fitted bolts. The bedplate consists of two welded, longitudinal girders and a
number of cross girders which support the main bearings. The main bearings
consist of steel shells, lined with bearing metal.
Each main bearing has one or two main bearing caps which are secured by
studs and nuts, designed for tightening with hydraulic tools.
The bedplate is fitted with an axial vibration damper. For the design and functioning of the axial vibration damper, see Section 905 Crankshaft.
Marine engines (except geared plants):
The aft end of the bedplate incorporates the thrust bearing. See also Section
905 Crankshaft.
Stationary engines (and geared marine plants):
The bedplate incorporates the guide bearing. See also Section 905, Crank
shaft.
Framebox
A framebox is bolted on to the top of the bedplate. Like the bedplate, the
framebox consists of one or more sections. Together, the bedplate and the
framebox constitute the crankcase of the engine.
The framebox is fitted with steel-plate doors for access to the crossheads and
to the main and crankpin bearings.
For each cylinder, the framebox is equipped with a slotted pipe in which the
piston cooling oil outlet pipe fitted to the crosshead or guide shoe is able to
travel. From the slotted pipe the cooling oil is, through an outlet pipe, led to
the oil tray of the bedplate.
Page 22 (23)
A90030-0009
MAN B&W Diesel

Equipment for local checking of the cooling oil temperature and flow, and for
temperature and flow alarms, is installed in conjunction with the outlet pipe.
Staybolts
The bedplate, framebox and the cylinder frame are tightened together to form
one unit by means of staybolts.
Engine Seating
Regarding the engine seating for the specific engine, see the suppliers special
instructions.
