1.2.1 Main features and characteristics
08
The new M 25 E has been designed to completely meet the ultimate customer requirements, providing the
09 lowest cost of operation while maintaining the highest uptime in the industry. Since one engine standard
typically does not lt all applications, the M 25 E follows a new approach and provides conlgurations that
10 support various application-specilc requirements. Beside a full load version which technically follows the
footsteps of its predecessor M 25 C, Caterpillar has designed two different part load optimization kits (PLK)
11 for the M 25 E that optimize engine operation under part load conditions.

Fig. 1-2 Overview of components
21
Based on the proven M 25 C, all versions have been extensively optimized for best fuel consumption and
22 load acceptance, leading reliability and durability, and eflcient Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
operation. The service and maintenance-friendly design,remote condition monitoring and diagnostic
23 capabilities, as well as our unmatched global product support, respond to the industry‘s desire to lower
operational costs and downtimes beyond today‘s standards.
For ultimate eflciency and performance, the M 25 E is available as a part of our integrated propulsion
packages with Caterpillar Propulsion controllable pitch propellers (CPP) and Azimuth drives.

02 1.3 Engine running in

03 All MaK engines delivered have already been completely run in, therefore special guidelines for running in
are not necessary.
04 Under certain circumstances, referred to in the respective maintenance guidelines, further running in can
be required. This may be for example maintenance work at or changing of:
05
• pistons,
06 • piston rings and
• liners.
07
In these cases a running in period of 5 hours for M 25 E engines is to be adhered.
08 During this period the load of the preheated engine is increased from 20 % to 100 %.
HFO operated engines should be operated on MGO / MDO below 50 % engine load due to increased
09 generation of combustion residues.
During the running in period pressure and temperature values are to be compared with the respective
10 values of the factory acceptance test run.
Maintenance work or changing of main or big end bearings do not cause running in procedures.

02 2.4.3 Engine International Air Pollution Prevention Certilcate

03 The MARPOL Diplomatic Conference has agreed about a limitation of NOX emissions, referred to as
Annex VI to MARPOL 73/78.
04 When testing the engine for NOX emissions, the reference fuel is marine diesel oil (distillate) and the test
is performed according to ISO 8178 test cycles:
05
Test cycle type E2 Test cycle type D2
06 Speed 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 %
Power 100 % 75 % 50 % 25 % 100 % 75 % 50 % 25 % 10 %
07 Weighting factor 0.2 0.5 0.15 0.15 0.05 0.25 0.3 0.3 0.1

08 Subsequently, the NOX value is calculated using different weighting factors for different loads that have
been corrected to ISO 8178 conditions.
09
An NOX emission evidence will be issued for each engine showing that the engine complies with the
10 regulation. The evidence will come as EAPP (Engine Air Pollution Prevention) Statement of Compliance,
EAPP Document of Compliance or EIAPP (Engine International Air Pollution Prevention) Certilcate
11 according to the authorization by the mag state and related technical lle. For the most part on basis of an
EAPP Statement of Compliance or an EAPP Document of Compliance an EIAPP certilcate can be applied
12 for.

13 According to the IMO regulations, a technical lle shall be provided for each engine. This technical lle
contains information about the components affecting NOX emissions, and each critical component is
14 marked with a special IMO number. Such critical components are piston, cylinder head, injection nozzle
(element), camshaft section, fuel injection pump, turbocharger and charge air cooler. (For Common Rail
15
engines the controller and the software are delned as NOX relevant components instead of the injection
pump.) The allowable settings and parameters for running the engine are also speciled in the technical
16
lle.
17
The marked components can be easily identiled on-board of the ship by the surveyor and thus an IAPP
18 (International Air Pollution Prevention) certilcate for the ship can be issued on basis of the EIAPP
certilcate and the on-board inspection.

OPERATING RANGES
01
02 3.1 Restrictions for low load operation

03 The engine can be started, stopped and run on heavy fuel oil under all operating conditions.
The HFO system of the engine remains in operation and keeps the HFO at injection viscosity.
04 The temperature of the engine injection system is maintained by circulating hot HFO and heat losses are
compensated.
05 The lube oil treatment system (lube oil separator) remains in operation, the lube oil is separated
continuously.
06 The operating temperature of the engine cooling water is maintained by the cooling water preheater.
Below 25 % output heavy fuel operation is neither eflcient nor economical.
07 A change-over to diesel oil is recommended to avoid disadvantages as e.g. increased wear and tear,
contamination of the air and exhaust gas systems and increased contamination of lube oil.

See the information on fuel requirements in section MDO / MGO and HFO operation or consult the
05 Caterpillar Motoren technical product support.
For proper operation of MaK engines the minimum Caterpillar Motoren requirements for storage,
06 treatment and supply systems have to be observed, as shown in the following sections.

07 5.1.1 Acceptable MGO / MDO characteristics

08 Two fuel product groups are permitted for MaK engines:

09 Pure distillates: Gas oil, marine gas oil, diesel fuel


Distillate/mixed fuels: Marine gas oil (MGO), marine diesel oil (MDO)
10
The difference between distillate/mixed fuels and pure distillates are higher density, sulfur content and

FUEL OIL SYSTEM
01
02 General

03 The design of the fuel oil system may vary from ship to ship, the system itself has to provide suflcient,
permanent and clean fuel oil of the required viscosity and pressure to each engine. Fuel storage,
04 treatment, temperature and pressure control as well as suflcient circulation must be ensured.

05
Diesel oil storage tank DT4
06
The tank design, sizing and location are according to classilcation society requirements and based on ship
07 application. No heating is necessary because all marine distillate fuels are suitable for pumping.

08
Diesel oil separator DS1
09
Depending on the fuel oil quality a diesel oil separator DS1 is recommended for the use of MGO and
10 required for MDO by Caterpillar Motoren. Any fuel oil must always be considered as contaminated upon
delivery and should therefore be thoroughly cleaned to remove solid and liquid contaminants before use.
11 Most of the solid contaminants in the fuel are rust, sand, dust.
Liquid contaminants are mainly water, i.e. fresh water or salt water.
12 Impurities in the fuel oil can result in
• damage to fuel injection pumps and injectors,
13 • increased cylinder liner wear,
• deterioration of the exhaust valve seats
14 • increased fouling of turbocharger blades.
If a diesel oil separator is installed a total diesel oil separator capacity of 100 % of the full load fuel
15
consumption is recommended.
HT-water or electrical heating is normally used as heating medium.
16
The nominal capacity should be based on a separation time of 22h/day:
17
Veff.[l/h] = 0.28 · Peng. [kW] Veff. = Volume effective [l/h]
18 Peng.= Power engine [kW]

19
Diesel oil day tank DT1
20
The day tank collects clean / treated fuel oil, compensates irregularities in the treatment plant and its
21 standstill periods. Two day tanks are to be provided, each with a capacity according to classilcation rules.
The tank should be provided with a sludge space including a sludge drain valve and an overmow pipe from
22 the MDO/MGO service tank to the settling/storage tank. The level of the tank must ensure a positive static
pressure on the suction side of the fuel feed pumps. Usually tank heating is not required.

02 5.2 HFO operation

03 The following section is based on the experiences gained in the operation of heavy fuel installations.
Stable and correct viscosity of the fuel before injection pumps (see technical data) must be maintained at
04 any time. Suflcient circulation through every engine connected to the same circuit must be ensured in all
operating conditions.
05 The fuel treatment system should comprise at least one settling tank and two separators.
Correct dimensioning of HFO separators is of great importance, and therefore the recommendations of the
06 separator manufacturer must be closely followed.
Poorly puriled fuel is harmful to the engine. A high content of water may also damage the fuel feed
07 system.
Injection pumps generate pressure pulses into the fuel feed and return piping. The fuel pipes between the
08 feed unit and the engine must be clamped properly to rigid structures. The distance between the lxing
points should be at close distance next to the engine. (See chapter piping design, treatment and
09 installation.)

10 ATTENTION:
In multiple engine installations, where several engines are connected to the same fuel feed circuit, it must
11 be possible to close the fuel supply and return lines connected to the engine individually.
(This is a SOLAS requirement.)
12
NOTE:
13 It is further stipulated that the means of isolation shall not affect the operation of the other engines, and it
shall be possible to close the fuel lines from a position that is not rendered inaccessible due to lre on any
14 of the engines.

FUEL OIL SYSTEM
01
02 Fuel oil system

03 A pressurized fuel oil system, as shown in Fig. 5-10, is necessary when operating on high viscosity fuels.
When using high viscosity fuels requiring high preheating temperatures, the fuel oil from the engine fuel
04 oil system to the return line will also have a relatively high temperature. The fuel oil pressure measured on
the engine (at fuel pump level) should be about 5 bar. This maintains a pressure margin against
05 gasilcation and cavitation in the fuel system, even at 150 °C preheating.
In order to ensure correct atomization, the fuel oil temperature must be adjusted according to the specilc
06 fuel oil viscosity used. An inadequate temperature can inmuence the combustion and could cause
increased wear on cylinder liners and piston rings, as well as deterioration of the exhaust valve seats.
07 A too low heating temperature, i.e. too high viscosity, could also result in excessive fuel consumption.
Therefore, optimum injection viscosity of 10 – 12 cSt must be maintained at any rate and with all fuel
08 grades.
Deviations from design recommendations are possible, however, they should be discussed with Caterpillar
09 Motoren.
Trace heating for all heavy fuel pipes is recommended.

02 Storage tanks

03 The tank design, sizing and location must comply with classilcation society requirements and are based on
ship application.
04 Heating coils are necessary and are to be designed so that the HFO temperature is at least 10K above the
pour point to ensure a pumping viscosity below 1,000 cSt.
05 Heating is possible by steam, thermal oil, electrical current or hot water.

06
Settling tanks HT5, HT6
07
The tank design, sizing, location must comply with classilcation society requirements and are based on
08 ship application. Two settling tanks are to be provided.
Its function is to remove water and solids by gravity due to higher fuel oil temperature and reduced
09 turbulences. Provide constant oil temperature and avoid interruption of treatment system, due to overmow
from HFO day tank.Thermal insulation of the settling tanks is recommended to avoid heat losses.
10
In order to ensure a suflcient settling effect, the following settling tank designs are permitted:
11 • 2 settling tanks, each with a capacity suflcient for 24 hours full load operation of all consumers or
• 1 settling tank with a capacity suflcient for 36 hours full load operation of all consumers and
12 automatic llling
Settling tank temperature shall be 70 - 80 °C; the charging level shall be 70 - 90 %.
13
14 Heavy fuel preheater (separator) HH3
15
Heavy fuel oil needs to be heated up to a certain temperature before separating.
The most common heaters on board of ships are steam heaters. Other muid heating sources are hot water,
16
thermal oil or electrical heaters. Overheating of the fuel may cause fuel cracking. Thus the maximum
17 electric load on the heater element should not exceed 1 Watt/cm².
In a cleaning system for HFO the usual processing temperature is 98 ºC.
18 The separator manufacturer’s guidelines have to be observed.

19
Heavy fuel transfer pumps (separator) HP5, HP6
20
The separator feed pumps shall be installed as close as possible to the settling tanks.
21 The separator manufacturer’s guidelines have to be observed.

FUEL OIL SYSTEM
01
Heavy fuel separators HS1, HS2 02
Any fuel oils whether heavy fuel oil, diesel oil or crude oil must always be considered as contaminated 03
upon delivery and should therefore be thoroughly cleaned before use.
Therefore self-cleaning types should be selected. 04
The purpose of any fuel treatment system is to clean the fuel oil by removal of water, solids, and
suspended matter to protect the engine from excessive wear and corrosion. 05
Liquid contaminants are mainly water, i.e. either fresh water or salt water.
Impurities in the fuel can cause damage to fuel injection pumps and injectors, and can result in increased 06
cylinder liner wear and deterioration of the exhaust valve seats as well as increased fouling of
turbocharger blades. 07
Two separators with independent electrically driven pumps must be provided.
08
Separator sizing:
09
The correct sizing of the separators is based on the max. fuel oil consumption at maximum continuous
rating (MCR) of the engines. The following formula can be used: 10
(The fuel consumption of auxiliary engines and boilers, if there are any, must be included)
11
Veff. = 0.28 P (l/h)
12
Veff. = Volume effective [l/h]
Peng. = Power engine [kW]
13

The cleaning capacity of the separator must always be higher than the entire fuel consumption of the
14
plant, incl. aux. equipment.
15
ATTENTION:
16
The separator outlet pressure is limited, so the pressure in the pipe line between separator outlet and day
tank must be observed carefully. Follow the separator manufacturer‘s guidelines. 17
18
Heavy fuel day tank HT1 19
The tank design, sizing and location must comply with classilcation society requirements based on ship 20
application. Two day tanks are to be provided. Each day tank capacity must be designed for full load
operation of all consumers according to classilcation requirements. An overmow system into the settling 21
tanks is required.HFO day tanks shall be provided with heating coils and suflcient insulation. Heating is
possible by steam, thermal oil or hot water. The day tank temperature shall be above 90 °C. 22

02 5.2.2 Fuel booster and supply system

03 The booster system shall provide a pre-pressure to the mixing tank of approx. 4 - 5 bar. The circulating
system provides suflcient mow of the required viscosity to the injection pumps. The circulation mow rate is
04 typically 3.5 - 4 times the fuel consumption at MCR to prevent overheating of the fuel injection system and
thus avoiding evaporation in the injection pumps.
05
Fuel change over main valve HR9
06
A manually operated three-way valve for changing over from MDO/MGO to HFO operation and back to
07 MDO/MGO equipped with limit switches is necessary.

Viscosimeter HR2 02
The viscosimeter is regulating in conjunction with the lnal preheater the required fuel injection viscosity. 03
This device automatically regulates the heating of the lnal preheater depending on the viscosity of the
bunkered fuel oil, so that the fuel will reach the nozzles with the viscosity required for injection. 04
05
Pressure absorber KD1 (optional)
06
During the injection phases of fuel from the supply line, compression and injection as well as the release
of unused fuel into the return line, cyclic pressure pulsations may result. The requirement of installing fuel 07
dampers in the external pipe system depends on the design of the external fuel pipe work and its ability
to absorb such pulsations suflciently. Just in case of enhanced damping requirements additional dampers 08
have to be installed.
09

Bypass overmow valve HV (optional) 10

If more than one engine is connected to the fuel booster and supply system a bypass overmow valve 11
between the feed line and the return line can be required.
It serves to secure and stabilize the pressure in the fuel feed line under all circumstances and operation 12
conditions.
The overmow valve must be differential pressure operated.
13
The opening differential pressure should be 2 bar.

15
Duplex llter HF1 (ltted)
16
The fuel duplex llter is installed at the engine.
The two llter chamber construction allows continuous operation without any shut downs for cleaning the 17
llter elements.
The drain connection of the llter is provided with a valve and must be routed to the leak oil tank. 18
If the llter elements are removed for cleaning, the llter chamber must be emptied. This prevents the dirt
particles remaining in the llter casing from migrating to the clean oil side of the llter. 19

03 To ensure a fuel oil temp. below 50 °C a cooling of diesel oil may be required.
The need for fuel cooler is system specilc and depends on fuel circuit design and type of fuel oil.
04 In case of more than one engine are connected to the same fuel supply system, the MDO-cooler capacity
has to be increased accordingly.
05 The diesel oil coolers are always installed in the fuel return line (engine connection C78).
The heat transfer load into the diesel oil system is approx. 1.2 kW/cyl.

5.3 Switching over from HFO to diesel oil 02
Continuous operation with HFO is recommended for engines designed for running mainly on HFO. 03
Starting and stopping the engine on HFO (Pier to Pier) can be provided if a suflcient preheating of the fuel
oil system is ensured. 04
The circulating pumps have to be permanently in service, so that a continuous circulation of warm/hot fuel
oil through the engine is ensured. 05
A frequent change over from HFO to diesel oil is only recommended when necessary for mushing purposes, 06
emergencies, special sea area emission requirements, etc.
07
Changing the fuel oil too quickly and too often may cause high risk of plunger seizure (thermal shock), fuel
injection pump leakages, etc. in the fuel injection pump. Only a slow switch over will attenuate that effect. 08

LUBE OIL SYSTEM
01
02 General

03 The lube oil performs several basic functions:


• It cleans the engine by carrying dirt and wear particles until the llters can extract and store them.
04 • It cools the engine by carrying heat away from the piston, cylinder walls, valves and cylinder heads
to be dissipated in the engine oil cooler.
05 • It cushions the engines bearings from the shocks of cylinder lring.
• It lubricates the wear surfaces, reducing friction.
06 • It neutralizes the corrosive combustion products.
• It seals the engines metal surfaces from rust.
07 • It lubricates the turbocharger bearings.
• It cools the injection nozzles.
08
09 6.1 Lube oil requirements

10 NOTE:
The viscosity class SAE 40 is required.
11
Wear and tear and thus the service life of the engine depend on the lube oil quality. Therefore high
12 requirements are made for lubricants:

13 • Constant uniform distribution of the additives at all operating conditions.


• Perfect cleaning (detergent effect) and dispersing power, prevention of deposits from the combustion
14 process in the engine.
• Suflcient alkalinity in order to neutralize acid combustion residues.
15
• The TBN (total base number) must be between 30 and 40 KOH/g at HFO operation.
The TBN is 12 - 20 KOH/g for MDO operation depending on Sulfur content

COOLING WATER SYSTEM
01
7.1 General 02
MaK engines are cooled by two cooling circuits: 03
• A high temperature (HT) and
• A low temperature (LT) cooling circuit 04
The cooling water needs to be treated according to Caterpillar Motoren requirements for MaK engines.
05
7.1.1 Two circuit cooling system 06
In this system arrangement, the two cooling systems are designed as two separate water circuits. 07
Each circuit needs to be ltted with a header tank and a fresh water cooler.
08

7.1.2 Secondary circuit cooling system 09

In the "secondary circuit cooling system", HT and LT cooling circuits are combined in sequence to one 10
water circuit.
In order to use the different temperature levels, the HT suction side is connected to the LT delivery side. 11
The HT circuit uses an amount of warm LT water and further heats it up by cooling the engine. The amount
of LT water, that is used by the HT system, depends on the current temperature and engine power. The 12
overrun of the lxed mow of the fresh water pump (ltted on engine) HT (FP1) circulates via bypass line from
the temperature control valve HT (FR1) to the suction side as usual.
13
The advantage of the secondary circuit system is its simplicity. It uses just one water circuit and there is
only one header tank and one fresh water cooler instead of two.
14
In addition the amount of piping is reduced.
15
16
7.2 Water quality requirements
17
7.2.1 General 18
The engine cooling water must be carefully selected, treated and controlled. 19
The use of untreated cooling water will cause corrosion, erosion and cavitation on the surfaces of the
cooling system. Deposits can impair the heat transfer and may result in thermal overload on components 20
to be cooled.
Therefore the treatment with an anti-corrosion agent has to be effected before the very lrst 21
commissioning of the plant.

COOLING WATER SYSTEM

02 7.2.2 Requirements

03 The characteristic of the untreated cooling water must be within the following limits:
• Distillate or freshwater free from foreign matter (no seawater or waste water)
04 • A total hardness of max. 10° dH
• pH-value 6.5 – 8
05 • Chloride ion content of max. 50 m/l

06
7.2.3 Supplementary information
07
Distillate:
08 If a distillate or fully desalinated water is available, this should preferably be used as engine cooling
water.
09 Hardness:
Water with more than 10° dGH (German total hardness) must be mixed with distillate or softened.
10
11 7.2.4 Treatment before operating the engine for the lrst time

12 Treatment with an anti-corrosion agent must be done before the engine is operated for the lrst time to
prevent irreparable initial damage.
13
14 7.3 Recommendation for cooling water system
15
7.3.1 Pipes and tanks
16
17 Galvanized material should not be used in tanks and pipes, it can cause zinc attack in the engine.

18
7.3.2 Drain tank with llling pump
19
It is recommended to collect the treated water in a separate drain tank when carrying out maintenance
20 work (to be installed by the yard).

7.4 Cooling water system


14
15
General note: The following system siagrams should be regarded as typical examples. Their purpose is
to explain the general function of the engine‘s systems. Numerous other variants and arrangements are
16
possible and can be discussed and developed with the mechanical MaK A&I department.
17
7.4.1 General
18
The high temperature (HT) system provides the HT side of the charge air cooler and the engine‘s cylinder
heads and cylinder liner water rings with cooling water. In order to reduce the thermal tension in 19
water-cooled engine parts, it is important to keep the drop in temperature low and therefore the mow high.
Therefore the fresh water pump (ltted on engine) HT (FP1) delivers its full mow over the engine. The HT 20
outlet temperature of 90 °C is controlled by the temperature control valve HT (FR1). In case the
temperature decreases, the valve delivers more water to the bypass (connection B for mechanical, 21
connection 3 for electrical driven valves) back to the HT pump‘s suction side.
In order to use the thermal energy of the HT circuit, a heat recovery can be installed as shown in the 22
cooling water diagrams (FH3). For heat recoveries, especially for fresh water generators a high mow over
the heat consumer (FH3) is recommended. This can be achieved by using a mow temperature control valve 23
HT (FR3). This valve raises the HT mow temperature and therefore reduces the amount of water that is
circulated over the bypass of FR1 and increases the mow through the heat recovery heat consumer (FH3)
and the fresh water cooler HT (FH1).

Page 69 / M 25 E Generator Set / 08.2015


COOLING WATER SYSTEM
01
02 The low temperature (LT) cooling circuit provides cooling for the LT stage of the charge air cooler, the lube
oil and the diesel oil coolers and possible other consumers like e.g. gear box and generator coolers.
03 The LT mow temperature is controlled by FR2. The cooling system is laid out for 38 °C under tropical
conditions and full engine load. For better performance, the LT temperature is to be controlled to 32 °C.
04 Caterpillar Motoren can deliver mechanic P-controllers with a set point range of 20 to 30 °C or electric
driven valves with electronic controllers, which must be set to 32 °C.
05 Depending on the plant design the fresh cooling water pumps can be ltted on the engine. All cooling
water pumps also may be designed as separate with electrical drive

Plate type, size depending on the total heat to be dissipated.
Most ship cooling systems dump the engines‘ waste heat in seawater cooled fresh water coolers. 17
Caterpillar Motoren offers standardized titanium plate heat exchangers for this purpose. The size of
these coolers will always be individually calculated for the heat dissipation demand of the respective 18
systems.
Alternatively box coolers, radiators and other heat exchanger arrangements and any kind of combined 19
cooling systems can be laid out and delivered.

03 • Arrangement: Min. 4 / max. 16 m above crankshaft center line (CL).


• Size according to technical engine data.
04 • All continuous vents from engine are to be connected.

05 Main functions of the cooling water header tank:


• It produces static pressure for the cooling water pumps in order to prevent cavitation. Therefore it
06 has to be connected to each pump suction side or in case of a combined system to the suction side of
the central cooling water pump.
07 • The vent lines continuously deliver a small water mow to the header tank. In this mow, air bubbles are
carried away and the system gets de-aerated.
08 • Vent lines should also be installed in the highest points of the circuits in order to get rid of all air
bubbles that accumulate there.
09 • Vent lines may not be too large in order to keep the mow over the header tank low. DN 20 is
recommended and also valves for adjusting the mow must be installed.
10 • The mow of the vent lines gradually heats up the header tank by means of the constantly delivered
hot water. This mow returns to the system via the pump suction side. As this circulation is very small
11 in relation to the mow of the pump (if adjusted correctly), the temperature rise in the system will not be
noticeable.
12 • The header tanks water volume balances the entire system volume, which changes due to thermal
expansion and possibly due to leakages.

COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEM
01
02 8.1 General

03 Compressed air is used


• to start the engines
04 • to provide actuating energy for safety devices.

05 The compressed air supply to the engine plant requires air receivers and air compressors of a capacity and
air delivery rating which will meet the requirements of the respective classilcation society.
06 To ensure the functionality of the components in the compressed air system, the compressed air has to be
free of solid particles and oil.
07
08 8.2 Internal compressed air system

09 The engine is started by means of compressed air with a nominal pressure of 30 bar.
The start is performed by direct injection of starting air into the cylinder through the starting air valves in
10 the cylinder heads.

8.3 External compressed air system 02
The design of the compressed air system is partly determined by classilcation regulations. 03
Most classilcation societies require that the total capacity is divided into two equally sized starting air
receivers and starting air compressors. 04
The starting air pipes should always be slightly inclined and equipped with manual or automatic draining
at the lowest points. 05
Caterpillar Motoren requires automatic draining condensate traps at the compressor and air receivers.

COMBUSTION AIR SYSTEM
01
9.1 Engine room ventilation 02
To obtain good working conditions in the engine room and to ensure a trouble free operation of all 03
equipment a properly designed engine room ventilation system with cooling air and combustion air is
required. 04
05
9.2 Combustion air system design
06
Combustion air describes the air the engine requires to burn fuel.
Combustion air demand see chapter 4, technical data. 07
08
9.2.1 Air intake from engine room (standard)
09
• Fans are to be designed for a slight overpressure in the engine room.
• On system side the penetration of water, sand, dust, and exhaust gas must be avoided. 10
• When operating under tropical conditions, the air mow must be conveyed directly to the turbocharger.
• The temperature at turbocharger llter should not fall below + 10 °C. 11
• In cold areas warming up of the air in the engine room must be ensured.
12

9.2.2 Air intake from outside


13

• The intake air duct is to be provided with a llter. Penetration of water, sand, dust and exhaust gas must
14
be avoided.
15
• Connection to the turbocharger is to be established via an expansion joint.
For this purpose the turbocharger will be equipped with a connection socket.
16
• At temperatures below + 10 °C Caterpillar Motoren / application engineering must be consulted.
17
9.3 Cooling air 18
Cooling air refers to the mow of air that removes radiant heat from the engine, generator, other driven 19
equipment and other engine room components.
To dissipate the radiated heat a slight and evenly distributed air mow is to be led along the engine exhaust 20
gas manifold starting from the turbocharger.
21
NOTE:
Radiated heat see technical data. 22
23

Page 87 / M 25 E Generator Set / 08.2015


EXHAUST GAS SYSTEM
01
02 The exhaust gas system discharges the exhaust gases, emitted from the engine, through a piping system
to the atmosphere. To provide maximum eflciency of the engine, the resistance to the gas mow should be
03 minimized. The back pressure directly after the turbocharger, inmuenced by the design of the exhaust gas
piping and all installed components like exhaust gas boilers, catalysts and scrubbers is limited to 30 mbar.
04 Higher values will increase the thermal load of the engine and may lead to higher fuel consumption.

05
10.1 Components
06
07 10.1.1 Exhaust gas nozzle

08 For an optimal integration of the engine in the engine room regarding the discharge of the emitted exhaust
gases different orientations of the exhaust gas nozzle are possible.
09 The basic orientation of the exhaust gas nozzle for all M 25 E engines is either 0° or 90° from the vertical
line.

10.1.2 Exhaust gas compensator 02
The connection of the engine to the piping system of the ship has to be mexible to compensate possible 03
engine vibrations, movements of resilient mounted engines and to reduce the forces generated by the
thermal expansion of the exhaust gas piping acting to the turbocharger. For this connection, a special type 04
of approved exhaust gas compensator, which is mexible in all directions, is available. It is highly
recommended to install this exhaust gas compensator directly after the above mentioned exhaust gas 05
nozzle. If it is necessary to isolate the compensator area it must be possible that the compensator is able
to expand and contract freely. 06
Basic design values of the standard exhaust gas compensators: 07
Diameter Length Weight

8/9 M 25 E 600 450 113
10

10.1.3 Exhaust gas piping system 11

To minimize the forces acting through the compensator to the turbocharger and to guarantee a long 12
lifetime of the compensator it is highly recommended to position a lxed point piping support directly after
the compensator.
13

Each engine requires a separate exhaust gas pipe. The exhaust gas piping system from two or more
14
engines is not allowed to be joined in one, otherwise exhaust gases from engines under operation can be
15
forced into cold engines not operating and causes engine damages as a result of condensed water from
the exhaust gas.
16
Also the exhaust gas pipes and/or silencers should be equipped with water separating pockets and a 17
drainage.
18
In order to minimize the pressure loss of the complete exhaust gas system it is recommended to use a
suitable pipe diameter for the entire exhaust gas line. 19
According to the dimensions of the compensators (see table chapter 10.1.2) there are standard diameters 20
proposed for the respective engine type in relation to the exhaust gas mass mow. In case multiple of bends
and other components integrated in the exhaust gas system it might be necessary to increase the pipe 21
diameter.
22
For guidance the exhaust gas mow velocity should be less than 40 m/s.

19 Example (based on diagram data A to E):


T = 335 °C, G = 25,000 kg/h t = Exhaust gas temperature [°C]
20 L = 15 m straight pipe length, d = 700 mm G = Exhaust gas massmow [kg/h]
3 off 90 ° bend R/d = 1.5 Δp = Resistance/m pipe length [mm WC/m]
21 1 off 45 ° bend R/d = 1.5 d = Inner pipe diameter [mm]
ΔPg = ? w = Gas velocity [m/s]
22 I = Straight pipe length [m]
Δp = 0.83 mm WC/m L‘ = Spare pipe length of 90 ° bent pipe [m]
23 L‘ = 3 · 11 m + 5.5 m L = Effective substitute pipe length [m]
L = I + L‘ = 15 m + 38.5 m = 53.5 m ΔPg = Total resistance [mmWC]
ΔPg = Δp · L = 0.83 mm WC/m - 53.5 m = 44.4 mm WC

10.1.4 Silencer 02
The exhaust noise emission of the engine has to be reduced by an integration of at least one suitable 03
silencer in the exhaust gas system to fulll either the specilcations of the relating classilcation company
or legal regulations according noise emissions or just to meet the clients comfort demand at open deck. 04
Standard silencers which are especially designed for each engine type are available.
As the silencers are of the absorptive type the mow resistance is low so just a back pressure of 05
approx. 100 mm WC will arise. Long lbre absorbing heat resistant material is used for the noise
absorption. The noise attenuation of the standard silencers reaches at least 35 dB(A) and covers a wide 06
frequency range. If necessary also silencers with a higher attenuation can be offered.
As standard the silencer can be provided either with or without a spark arrestor which will be provided 07
with a soot collecting chamber. Each silencer is equipped with a water drain to draw out the condense
water. The silencer will be delivered with counter manges, screws and gaskets. The mounting brackets for 08
either horizontal or vertical installation as the insulation are not included. Optional the silencers can be
delivered with loose or welded on mounting brackets according clients requirements. 09
Special attention has to be paid in the positioning of the silencer in the exhaust gas system to avoid
resonance effects in the piping system. A wrong positioning of the silencer in the system can cause high 10
noise levels before or after the silencer and can lead to extreme noise at the funnel end.

02 10.1.5 Exhaust gas boiler

03 ATTENTION:
If exhaust gas boilers are used in the exhaust gas line each engine should have a separate exhaust gas
04 boiler. Alternatively, if a common boiler is used for two or more engines the gas sections have to be
separate.
05
Especially when exhaust gas boilers are installed attention must be paid not to exceed the maximum
06 recommended back pressure.

07 NOTE:
Exhaust gas boilers are available through Caterpillar Marine.

10.2.1 Turbine cleaning system
04
Turbine cleaning is required for HFO operation. The cleaning is carried out with clean fresh water "wet
cleaning" during low load operation at regular intervals, depending on the fuel quality, 150 hours. 05
NOTE: 06
Duration of the cleaning period is approx. 10 minutes (2 intervals).
Fresh water of 2.5 - 4.5 bar for 6/8/9 M 25 E is required. 07

NOTE: 08
During cleaning the water drain should be checked. Therefore, the shipyard has to install a funnel after
connection point C36. 09

10.3 Cat SCR System / IMO III kit
06
While fulllling IMO Tier II exhaust gas emissions with engine internal solutions, IMO Tier III compliance
07 will be achieved with exhaust gas after treatment solutions. The Cat SCR System solution is designed by
Caterpillar especially for MaK medium-speed engines to meet IMO III emission requirements.
08
The Cat SCR System is based on selective catalytic reduction technology. Urea muid is injected into the hot
09 exhaust gas and transformed to NH3 and CO2. Inside the SCR module the NH3 reacts with the exhaust gas
NOX emission to form harmless nitrogen and water vapor, which are major components of ambient air.

02 Available as a 6, 8, and 9 cylinder engine platform, two application specilc propulsion conlgurations have
been developed, allowing the selection of an engine set up which provides the best fuel eflciency and
03 load acceptance at part load without sacrilcing low smoke emissions.
Designed for IMO II emissions regulations in its standard conlguration, the M 25 E complies with IMO III
04 regulations when combined with SCR systems.

05
11.1 Technology
06
Depending on the application PLK can consist of our proven Flexible Camshaft Technology, a Waste Gate
07 and a cylinder bypass valve as well as an intelligent steering software logic integrated into the engine
control system. Cylinder bypass valve and Waste Gate prevent the turbocharger from running into surge
08 and speed limits. The valve train timing is adjusted to produce higher ignition pressure during low load
operation. Before achieving the IMO relevant emission test step the valve train moves back into the
09 “normal“ position. This combines lowest possible fuel consumption and IMO II compliance.

12.1 Functional description
13
The purpose of the air injection system is to temporarily feed additional compressed air into the charge air
manifold.
14
Thus the load pick up of the engine can be enhanced and the soot emissions will be reduced.
15
For example:
16
• Switching on of big consumers like cranes or bow thrusters on case of DP-operation.
17
The design is simple and robust without any changes to the turbocharger housing.
18
The air consumption of the engine will be increased by using air injection and depends on mode of
operation. 19
To avoid an impact to the start air system, a separate air supply system for the air injection system is
recommended. 20

02 13.7 Alarm indication

03 In general, the engine is equipped with the relevant alarm and safety sensorsaccording to classilcation
society rules.
04 MACS provides an engine alarm system which is located in the local control panel. The engine alarm
system and the local display are consolidated in the DCU. The complete alarm management is handled by
05 the DCU. All information is visualized via the screen in the LCP and additional several remote panels can
be added.
06
The DCU receives measurement values and data from all I/O modules, PLC‘s and the engine control
07 system (ECM). Furthermore it provides all measurement values, status values and alarms via MODbus TCP
(MODbus RTU, optional) for the vessel‘s system and the remote monitoring system. The engine‘s alarm
08 system determines critical engine conditions and activates alarms. The DCU has the ability of actuating
the secondary safety stop valve. That means the DCU also works as well as a shut down unit and is able to
09 stop the engine as reliable as the shut down unit (SDU). All alarms are stored in an alarm history and are
shown in a manner requested by the MACS.

17 • Transmitting measurement data to IAMCS
• Transmitting engine status to IAMCS
18 • Transmitting alarm to IAMCS
• Receiving ship‘s time stamp from IAMCS

INSTALLATION AND ARRANGEMENT
01
14.1 Resilient mounting of baseframe 02
Engine and generator set are rigidly connected with the baseframe. The whole genset is mounted on the 03
ship‘s foundation with conical rubber elements to achieve a passive vibration isolation between the genset
and the ship. The resilient mounting arrangement is designed to reach the best possible load 04
distribution of the genset weight in respect of the maximal permissible demection of the conical rubber
element. For that arrangement the conical rubber elements will be designed for each individual engine 05
generator combination.
The ship‘s foundation does not require machining itself, but to achieve the best performance of the 06
resilient mounting and to ensure that individual mountings are not overloaded, unevenness below the
conical elements has to be compensated either by using welded-on sheets and shims or alignment plates 07
and resin chocks.
In fact of an internal limiter of the conical elements the installation of additional stoppers is not necessary 08
to limit the movement of the genset.

04 The earthing has to be carried out by the shipyard during the assembly on board.
The engine is already equipped with M 16, 25 mm deep threaded holes with the earthing symbol in the
05 engine foot.
If the engine is resiliently mounted it is important to use mexible conductors.
06
In case of using welding equipment it is important to earth the welding equipment close to the welding
07 area (the distance should not exceed 10 m).

PIPING DESIGN
01
17.1 Pipe dimensions 02
The external piping systems are to be installed and connected to the engine by the shipyard. 03
Piping systems are to be designed so as to keep the pressure losses at a reasonable level. To
achieve this at justilable costs, it is recommended to keep mow rates as indicated below (see chapter 04
17.2).
Nevertheless, depending on specilc conditions of piping systems, it may be necessary to adopt even lower 05
mow rates.
06
ATTENTION:
Generally it is not recommended to adopt higher mow rates. 07

fuel oil diagrams, showing the trace heated pipes marked as
18
17.4 Insulation 19
All pipes with a surface temperature > 60 °C should be insulated to avoid risk of physical injury. 20
This applies especially to exhaust gas piping.
To avoid thermal loss, all trace heated pipes should be insulated. 21
Additionally, lube oil circulating pipes, the piping between engine and lube oil separator as well as the
cooling water pipes between engine and preheater set should be insulated. 22
23

Page 127 / M 25 E Generator Set / 08.2015


PIPING DESIGN
01
02 17.5 Flexible pipe connections

03 Flexible pipe connections become necessary to connect resilient mounted engines with external piping
systems. these components have to compensate the dynamic movements of the engine in relation to the
04 external piping system.

05 The shipyard‘s pipe system must be exactly arranged so that the manges or screw connections lt
without lateral or angular offset. It is recommended to adjust the lnal position of the pipe connections
06 after engine alignment is completed.

07 It is important to support as close as possible to the mex connection and stronger than normal. The pipes
outside the mexible connection must be well lxed and clamped to prevent from vibrations, which could
08 damage the mexible connections.

09 Installation of steel compensators

10 Steel compensators can compensate movements in line and transversal to their center line. They are not
suitable for compensating twisting movements. Compensators are very stiff against torsion.
11
It is very important that all steel compensators are not allowed to be installed on resilient mounted
12 engines in vertical direction.

STANDARD ACCEPTANCE TEST RUN
01
21.1 Standard acceptance test run 02
The acceptance test run is carried out on the testing bed with customary equipment and auxiliaries using 03
exclusively MDO and under the respective ambient conditions of the testing bed. During this test run the
fuel rack will be blocked at the contractual output value. In case of deviations from the contractual 04
ambient conditions the fuel consumption will be converted to standard reference conditions.
The engine will be run at the following load stages according to the rules of the classilcation societies. 05

Load [%] Duration [min] 06


50 30
85 30 07
100 60
110 30
08

The load stages above can vary according to the requirements of the classilcation societies. 09

After reaching steady state conditions of pressures and temperatures these will be recorded and 10
registered according to the form sheet of the acceptance test certilcate:
11
Additional functional tests
12
In addition to the acceptance test run the following functional tests will be carried out:
• Governor test
13
• Overspeed test
• Emergency shut-down via minimum oil pressure
14
• Start/stop via central engine control
15
• Starting trials up to a minimum air pressure of 10 bar
• Measurement of crank web demection (cold/warm condition)
16
After the acceptance, main running gear, camshaft drive and timing gear train will be inspected through 17
the opened covers.
Individual inspection of special engine components such as piston or bearings is not intended, because 18
such inspections are carried out by the classilcation societies at intervals on series engines.
