modifications or conversions.

Organizational measures

This publication must be issued to all personnel involved in operation, maintenance, repair or
transportation.

1
It must be kept at hand near the engine and accessible to all personnel involved in operation,
maintenance, repair or transportation.

The personnel must be instructed on engine operation and repair by means of this publication, and in
particular the safety instructions must be explained.

This is especially important for personnel who work on the engine only on an occasional basis. Such
personnel must be given instructions repeatedly.

Spare parts

Only genuine original spare parts must be used to replace components or assemblies. In event of any
damaged caused by the use of other spare parts, no liability or warranty claims vis-à-vis the engine
manufacturer will be accepted.

Working clothes and protective equipment

Wear proper work clothing for all work.

Depending on the kind of work, use additional protective equipment, e.g. protective goggles, protective
gloves, protective helmet, and apron.

Working clothing must be tight fitting so that it does not catch on rotating or projecting components.

Do not wear jewelers (e.g. rings, chains, etc.).

Transportation

Lift the engine only with the lifting eyes provided.

Use only the transportation and lifting equipment approved by Engine manufacturer.

Take note of the engine center of gravity.

The engine must only be transported in installation position.

Secure the engine against tilting during transportation. The engine must be especially secured against
slipping or tilting when going up inclines and ramps.

Transportation of engine must be carried out according to requirements of manufacturer.

2
Engine operation

When the engine is running, always wear ear protector.

Ensure that the engine room is well ventilated.

Mop up any leaked or spilt fluids and lubricants immediately or soak up with a suitable bonding agent.

Exhaust gases from combustion engines are poisonous. Inhalation of poisonous exhaust gases is a
health hazard.

During engine operation, do not touch battery terminals, generator terminals or cables.

Inadequate protection of electrical components can lead to electric shocks and serious injures.

When the engine is running, never release coolant, oil, fuel, compressed air or hydraulic lines.

Maintenance and repair

Compliance with maintenance and repair specification is an important safety factor.

Unless expressly permitted, no maintenance or repair work must be carried out with the engine running.
The engine must be secured against inadvertent starting and the battery disconnected. After sign〝Do
not operate〞in operating area or to control equipment. Persons not involved must keep clear.

Never attempt to rectify faults or carry out repairs if you do not have the necessary experience or
special tools required. Authorized, qualified personnel must only carry out maintenance and repair
work.

Use only the proper, calibrated tools.

Do not work on engines or components, which are only held by lifting equipment or crane. Always
support these components in accordance with regulations on suitable frames or stand before
beginning any maintenance or repair work.

Before barring engine, ensure that nobody is within the danger area (crankcase). After working on the
engine, check that all guards have been reinstalled and that all tools and loose components have been
removed from the engine.

3
Fluids emerging under high pressure can penetrate clothing and skin and may cause serious injury.
Before starting work, relieve pressure in systems and H.P. lines which are to be opened.

Never bend a fuel line and do not install bent lines. Keep fuel injection lines and connections clean,
Always seal connections with caps or covers if a line is removed or opened.

During maintenance and repair work, take care not to damage the fuel lines. To tighten connections
when installing lines, use the correct tightening torque and ensure that all retainers and dampers are
installed correctly.

Ensure that all fuel injection lines and compressed oil lines have sufficient play to avoid contact with
other components. Do not place fuel oil lines near hot components, except when necessary for design
reasons during installation.

Take care with hot fluids in lines, pipes and chambers → Risk of injury!

Note cooling period for components which are heated for installation or removal → Risk of injury!

Take special care when removing ventilation or plugs from engine. In order to avoid the discharge of
highly pressurized liquids, hold a cloth over the screw or plug. It is even more dangerous if the engine
has recently been shut down, as the liquids can still be hot.

Take special care when draining hot fluids. → Risk of injury!

During draining, collect fluids in a suitable container, mop up any spit fluids or wipe or soak them up
with s suitable bonding agent.

When changing engine oil or working on the fuel system, ensure that the engine room is adequately
ventilated.

When working high on the engine, always use suitable ladders and work platforms. Make sure
components are places on stable surface.

In order to prevent back injuries when lifting heavy components, adults should not lift weights between
max. 10 kg and 30 kg, depending on age and sex.

·Use lifting gear or seek assistance.


·Ensure that all chains, hooks, slings, etc. are tested and authorized, are sufficiently strong and that
hooks are correctly positioned. Lifting eyes must not be unevenly loaded.

4
Welding work

Welding operation on the engine or mounted plants is not permitted.

Never use the engine as a ground terminal! – (This prevents the welding current passing through the
engine and causing scorching or burning at bearing, sliding surfaces and tooth flanks, which can lead
to pitting or other material damage).

Never position the welding power supply cable adjacent to, or crossing plat wiring harnesses. (The
welding current could be induced in the cable harnesses which could possibly damage the electrical
plant)

The ground terminal of the welding unit must be connected to the welding point at a distance no
greater than 60 cm.

If welding has been carried out on components (e.g. exhaust manifold), these components must first
be removed from the engine.

Hydraulic installation and removal

Only the hydraulic installation and removal equipment specified in the work schedule and in the
assembly instructions must be used.

The max. permissible push-on pressure specified for the equipment must not be exceeded.

Do not attempt to bend or apply force to lines.

During hydraulic installation and removal, ensure that nobody is standing in the immediate vicinity of
the component to be installed/removed. As long as the system is under pressure, there is the risk that
the component to be installed/removed may be suddenly released from the pressure connection.

Before use, the tools must be checked at regular intervals (crack test).

Working on electrical assemblies

Switch off all live appliances before carrying out any work on electrical assemblies.

Do not damage wiring during removal work and when reinstalling wiring and ensure that during
operation it is not damaged by contact with sharp objects, by rubbing against another component or by
a hot surface.

5
Do not secure wiring to fluid-caring lines.

On completion of the maintenance and repair work, any cables that have become loose must be
correctly connected and secured.

Always tighten connectors with connector pliers.

If wires are installed beside mechanical components and there is a risk of chafing, use cable clamps to
properly support he wires.

For this purpose, no cable straps must be used as, during maintenance and/or repair work, the straps
can be removed but not installed a second time.

Operation of electrical equipment

When operating electrical equipment, certain components of this equipment are live.

Noncompliance with the warning instructions given for this equipment may result in serious injury or
damage to property.

Fire prevention

Rectify any fuel or oil leaks immediately; even splashes of oil or fuel on hot components can cause
fires – therefore always keep the engine in a clean condition. Do not leave cloths soaked with fluids
and lying around on the engine. Do not store combustible fluids near the engine.

Do not weld pipes and components carrying oil or fuel. Before welding, clean with a non-combustible
fluid.

Always keep suitable fire-fighting equipment (fire extinguishers) at hand and familiarize yourself with
their use.

Noise

Noise can lead to an increased risk of accident if acoustic signals, warning shouts or noises indicating
danger are drowned.

At all workplaces with a sound pressure level over 85 dB (A), always wear ear protection (protective
wadding, plugs or capsules).

6
Environmental protection

Dispose of used fluids and control lubricants and filters in accordance with local regulations.

Manipulation of the injection or control system can influence the engine performance and exhaust
emission. As a result, compliance with environmental regulations may no only be guaranteed.

Only fuels of the specified quality required to achieve emission limits must be used.

Auxiliary materials

Use only fluids and lubricants that have been tested and approved by engine manufacturer.

Fluids and lubricants must be kept in suitable, properly designated containers. When using fluids,
lubricants and other chemical substances, follow the safety instructions applicable to the product. Take
care when handing hot, chilled or caustic materials. When using inflammable materials, avoid all
sparks and do not smoke.

Lead

When working with lead or lead-containing pastes, avoid direct contact to the skin and do not inhale
lead vapors.

Adopt suitable measures to avoid the formation of lead dust!

Switch on fume extraction system.

After coming into with lead or lead-containing materials, wash hands!

Acids and alkaline solutions

When working with acids and alkalis, wear protective goggles or face mask, gloves and protective
clothing.

Immediately remove clothing wetted by acids and alkalis!

Rinse injuries with plenty of clean water!

Rinse eyes immediately with eye drops or clean tap water.

7
Painting

When painting in other than spray booths equipped with extractor, ensure good ventilation. Make sure
that adjacent work areas arte not affected.

It is absolutely essential to wear masks providing protection against paint and solvent fumes.

Observe fire prevention regulation!

No smoking.

No naked flame!

Liquid nitrogen

Use liquid nitrogen only in small quantities and store in approved containers without tight seals.

Do not bring liquid nitrogen into contact with the body (eyes, hands), as this causes frostbite and
numbing.

Wear protective clothing (including gloves and closed shoes) and protective goggles!

Ensure the room is well ventilated (88% contamination of breathing with nitrogen will result in
suffocation).

Avoid all knocks and jars to the containers, fixtures or work pieces.

Compressed air

Compressed air is air that has been compressed at excess pressure and stored in tanks from which it
tanks from which it can then be extracted.

The pressure at which the air is kept can be read off at pressure gauges that must be connected to the
compressed air tanks and the compressed air lines.

When working with compressed air, safety precautions must be constantly observed:
· Pay special attention to the pressure level in the compressed air network and pressure vessel!
· Connecting devices and equipment must either be compressed for this pressure or, if the permitted
pressure for the connecting elements is lower than the pressure required, a pressure reducing valve
and safety valve (set to permitted pressure) must from an intermediate connection. Hose coupling and
connections must be securely attached!
· Always wear protective goggles when blowing off tools or extracting chips!
· The snout of the air nozzle is provided with a protective disc (e.g. rubber disc), which prevents
air-borne particles being reflected and thereby prevents injury to eyes.
· First shut off compressed air lines before compressed air equipment is disconnected from the supply
line or before equipment or tool is to be replaced!
· Forcing compressed air into thin-walled containers (e.g. containers made of tin, plastic and glass) for
drying purposes or to check for leaks results in a “Risk of explosion”!
· Do not blow dirty clothing with compressed air when being worn on the body.
Even compressed air at low pressure penetrates clothing and, if the jet is directed at the back, the
air can enter the anal cavity and fatally rupture the intestines!

Used oil

Used oil may contain health-threatening combustion residues.

Rub barrier cream into hands.

Wash hands after contact with used oil.


8
Warning signs

Before putting the engine into service and before working on the engine, read and follow all warning
signs. Do not paint on warning signs. Replace illegible signs.

Read and become acquainted with all warning noticed before operating ort repeating this product.

Pass on all safety instruction to your operating, maintenance, repair and transport personnel.

1.1 OFFICAL DESIGNATION

See standard S.E.M.T. – NSE 9.15 at the end of this paragraph.

1.2 GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DISMANTLING AND REFITTING

1.2. Safety

For any intervention inside the crankcase open the inspection door only 10 mn. After the engine is
stopped.
Before starting any maintenance work, make sure that all the necessary precautions are taken and
instructions followed to prevent accidental stating or rotation of the crankshaft (drain starting circuit and
close engine starting air inlet, apply brakes, disconnect turning gear, etc…).

When refitting:

- Reject any connecting rod big end screws which appear damaged.
- Lock and pin carefully all bolts and screws which were previously so fitted.
- Change split pins and locking plates at each refitting operation.
- Change self-locking nuts after 5 or 6 dismantling or operations
- Whenever a locking product (`Loctite`. type) is used when fitting parts, clean threads with
degreasing product and refit using the same locking product.
REFER TO LIST OF SEALS AND CONSUMABLES GIVEN IN EACH SECTION.

1.2.2 Tight fitting

When refitting:

Parts previously assembled with a sealing product should be cleaned and then refitted using the same
product.

REFER TO LIST OF SEALS AND CONSUMABLES GIVEN IN EACH SECTION.

1.2.3 Cleanliness

Before loosening the first nut, prepare a suitable place to put the removed parts thereon.

Group parts of each cylinder together, placing the largest ones on wooden supports and wedges them
in position.

Plug all apertures of parts and on dismantling.

Make sure that no dirt, swarf or filings enter or filings enter casings. After working on casings, clean
them thoroughly. (Do not use cotton waste).
Wash parts with clean gas-oil before refitting. Use compressed air to dry to parts cleaned with steam.

Special precautions for injection equipment:

The maintenance of this equipment requires particular care.


When dismantling, protect from dust.
Make sure that matched parts not mismatched (plunger and barrel of injection pump, needle and
needle guide of injector).
Place fragile parts on soft, clean paper and clean there with similar paper.

When refitting, dip the parts in filtered gas-oil and let drip without wiping.

STUD HYDRAULIC TIGHTENING

1) PRINCIPLE

A hydraulic jack causes stud elastic elongation. The nut is screwed home by hand against the bearing
surface. The jack pressure relief entails tightening.

2) DESCRIPTION (Figure 1)

A tightening jack includes:

- A gripping device (3) screwed on stud end.


- One piston (2).
- A cylinder (1) acting as thrust piece.

Tightness between piston and cylinder is realized by hard rubber O-rings sometimes with Teflon
back-up ring(s). Depending of the case the back-up ring is split or not.

The pressure is built up by a pump manually electrically or pneumatically controlled.

The pump is connected to the jack(s) by means of flexible. Eventually a directional control valve
distributes the pressure over several studs (cylinder-heads) Flexible ends are secured by safety chains
to prevent them to flag in case of breakage at the connection (Figure 2). Connections used on PC2-5
engine are quick fitting unions with non-return valves (Figure 3). The quick fitting unions may also use
another new structures.

3) USE

Tightening:

- Place the jack.


- Connect pump and jack with the flexible.

- Screw home the gripping device onto stud end.


- Build up the pressure.
- Screw home the nut rotating it with a Tommy bar.
- Relieve the pressure draining the pump.
- Disconnect eventually the flexible(s) and remove the jack(s).

34
PC2-5 DIESEL ENGINES
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTENANCE MANUAL No. E025.00.06-2
GENERAL

Caution: The disconnection of a flexible prior to total draining may result because of the non-turn valve,
in a residual pressure in the jack preventing its removal.

Loosing:

- Place the jack.


- Connect the flexible.
- Screw home the gripping devices then unscrew it by an angle larger than that corresponding to the
elastic elongation of stud required for loosing the nut.
- Build up the pressure. The pressure required for loosing is generally higher than that required for
tightening (the difference may reach 100 bar).
- Unscrew the nut using the Tommy bar through the nut holes.
- Relieve the pressure by draining.

- Eventually disconnect the flexible(s) and remove the jack(s).


4) TIGHTENING PRESSURE AND TESTING

The tightening strain is obtained by building up in the jack the pressure prescribed in the tightening
table.
The quality of the joint thus depends on the accuracy of the pump pressure gauge which shall be
tested and calibrated periodically. The pump is delivered with a reference pressure gauge provided for.
On the other hand, it’s recommended to check every six months the state of the flexible end pieced
and connections pump valve and the correct position of pistons in rest position in the cylinder.
For joint a faulty tightening of which might have serous consequences (crankshaft bearings, con-rod
caps) the tightening is ascertained by the measure of the strain.
These values are given in the tightening table.

5) LINE OF PROCEEDING IN CASE OF FAILURE

- Leak due to damaged O-ring:

The damage more often results from air incomplete draining of the jack(s) which entails the piston to
overstep its working stroke.
Replace the O-ring and the back-up ring. Use only seals supplied by the builders. Test the satisfactory
working of the automatic draining system, if any. Never build up the pressure in a jack non-fitted onto a
stud.

GENERAL

ENERGENCY PROCEEDING

When the immediate repair of a damaged jack is not possible a cylinder-head can be tightened, or
removed, using four jack only:

- Disconnect the faulty jack, the diametrally opposed jack and both jacks at 90°and 180°
angles(Figure a).

- Remove two diametrally opposed flexible.

- Connect the free ends of the two remaining flexibles to the oil discharge ports (Figure b).

- Attach the four remaining jacks onto the corresponding studs.

1. Dismantling:

- Build up the pressure mentioned in the tightening table and loosen the four nuts.

- Lower the pressure at half the given value and screw the nuts home again. Relieve the pressure.
- Fit the jacks onto the other four studs.

- Build up the pressure and loosen the other four nuts.


- Repeat the operation for the first fou8r nuts.

- THE PURPOSE OF THIS METHOD IS TO PREVENT HEAD DEFORMATION.

2. Reassembling:

- For the first four studs, build up the pressure in the jacks at a value half the one mentioned in the
tightening table and screw the nuts.
- Fit then the jacks onto the other four studs and build up the normal pressure in the jacks to tighten
the nuts.
- Return to the first studs and achieve tightening.

36
PC2-5 DIESEL ENGINES
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTENANCE MANUAL No. E025.00.06-4
GENERAL

- When a nut blocks against the stud non-threaded stud part at certain a pressure:

The thread clearance is made up by the elongation of the stud.


Test the pressure gauge the readings of which may be erroneous. If the pressure actually applied has
been 30% higher than the read pressure replace the stud and reject the jack-gripping device.
When the pressure gauge gives accurate indications the threads are not correct. Replace the out-of
dimension part.

- When a jack remains blocked onto a stud:

The gripping device has not been unscrewed enough when the jack was fitted: re-build the pressure,
screw home the nut, relieve the pressure, unscrew the gripping device of the required amount and
repeat loosing operation.

ⅠPOSITION OF THE OBSERVER

Place in the center line of the power take-off shaft and at its power take-off end, the observer looks at
the shaft end, as indicated in figure 1.

As to S.E.M.T. engine, the observation shall always be made from the standard power take-off end,
which means for:
PA engines: The end opposite to the timing gear.
PC engines: Timing gear end.

Ⅱ DIRECTION OF ROTATION

The two directions of rotation of the power take-off shaft of an engine are designated “clockwise” and
“anti-clockwise “, as indicated in figure 2.

Ⅲ NUMBERING OF CYLINDERS
The aim of this norm is to designate the cylinders of a reciprocating internal combustion engine.
It applied to engines with one bank of cylinders (in line engines) or with several banks of cylinders
(V-engines).
The cylinders belonging to the same bank of cylinders are given the numbers 1, 2, 3, etc in an
increasing order when leaving the observer. The letters A and B are to be attached to the banks of
cylinders in the order as the observer can see them passing around the power take-off shaft in the
clockwise direction, the first bank being either in the left hand horizontal position or the bank
immediately following that position.

B – ENGINE WHICH THE CYLINDERS ARE IN AND ANOTHER POSITION


THAN INDICATED IN SECTION A
The engine is given an imaginary rotation around its shaft until it is found in a position according to
section A.
Then, according to this section, the engine is designated right hand (figure 7) or left hand (figure 8).

VERY IMPORTANT
Up to now the PC in line engines have been designated right hand or left hand according to position of
the governor, which is contrary to the standardized designation.
This older designation shall be maintained for PC2, PC2-5 and PC3 engines, and the norm shall come
into force with the PA6 and the PC 4 in line engines.
For V-engines the position of the governor must be completely written.
ex: 18PC 2 V 400 engine with the governor at side A.
16PC 3 V 480 engine with the governor at side B.

When a part or a flange is held by several screws, bolts or studs, one of which breaks, replace also, at
the least the neighbouring ones on both sides of the broken one.

In the case of hydraulic tightening, the tightening torque is given for guidance only and should be used
only of the hydraulic tools are not available.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SCHDULE

PRELIMINARY NOTE

1) The engine running periods given as intervals between maintenance operations practically
depended on engine availability and therefore may vary by ± 20%. They are defined for a 90%
M.C.R continuous engine operation.

For instance: the 6000 hours overhaul is a yearly operation which can take place between 4800 and
7200 hours depending both on the engine yearly running duration and the time at which the engine can
be conveniently stopped.

When the engine cannot be stopped long enough to enable all prescribed maintenance operation, any
required reconditioning being carried out afterwards in the workshop.

2) The wear depends upon:

- The fuel and the lube-oil used in the in the engine.


- The engine operation running time at maximum rating, number of starts, etc…

That is why, in order to avoid useless dismantling, diagnostic inspection 6000 P and 9000 P, of the
power parts of 2 cylinders have been scheduled after 6000 and 9000 hours at a time when the wear is
stabilized, and which will enable, the running time after which the ‘LR’ limits may be reached for the
power parts, i.e.:

- Piston rings.
- Grooves,
- Valves and their guides.
- Bearings.
- Liners,
To be determined by linear ratio.

56
PC2-5 DIESEL ENGINES
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTENANCE MANUAL No. E025.00.13-2
GENERAL

The 12000 P overhaul shall therefore take place before reaching the running time at which the part
having the highest wear rate reaches the ‘ LR’ limits.
Experience reveals that, with rare exceptions, the other parts will then have exceeded the ‘LA’ limits
and that most often, this time largely exceeds 12000 hours.
- Consequently, the operations regarding all power assemblies (1200 P) can take place either at
12000, 15000 or 18000 or even at 21000 or 24000 running hours under particularly favorable
conditions.
The tables on their covers enable the actual timetables of power part maintenance operations to be
determined.

- In the case where the 12000 P operations take place at 15000 hours (and in this case only) the
12000 G operations may also be postponed till 15000 hours.
- In the case where the 12000 P operations take place at 21000 hours, the 24000 P and 24000 G
operations shall be carried out at the same time.
- The exhaust valve 3000 P and 600 P inspections allow also to determine the mean time between
reconditioning but because the parts can be independently removed these inspections do not
depend on the cylinder-head dismantling.
- The actual maintenance timetable shall be thus worked out for each specific case according to the
working requirements and circumstances.
The following document gives the list of the minimum operations to be carried out and provides a basis
for its compilation.

1 – DESCRIPTION
FRAME

There are two types of frame ‘A’ and ‘B’. In the first one the supporting plate supports the cylinders
when in the second one the cylinders are supported by the roof.

- Frame of type ‘Figure Ⅱ’

The cross walls partitioning the cylinders include a forged saddle and of an upper part of plate. They
are welded on the one hand to a multi-plate support system bracing them and act as centering for the
cylinder and, on the other hand to a roof bearing the collars on which the cylinders rest and to two
engine holding base flanges. Cylinder housings between supporting plate and roof are by reinforcing
plates.

Each frame type include inspection doors, fitted or not with explosion relief valves (Figure Ⅲ and Ⅳ)
on crankcase and camshaft casings.

CRANKSHAFT:

The crankshaft of chromium-molybdenum steel is solid-forged.


Each end is fitted with a coupling flange.

The longitudinal thrust bearing and the centering of the primary timing gear wheel are on the main POT
end. The other end may be fitted with a turning crown or a vibration damper. The crankshaft is drilled
along its whole length and through its journals to ensure oil circulation. Each crank is generally
balanced by a counter-weight fastened by a jack screw (Figure Ⅴ).

Shaft and main-bearing alignment is checked by measure of crankshaft by measure of crankshaft


deflection. The crankshaft 18 PC 2-5 V 400 engines includes 12 standard balance eights and 6 special
ones as per figure Ⅵ. 12 and 16 cylinder engine crankshafts may have only one balance weight out of
two. This eventuality does not exit for BTC engines.

There is only one type of crankshaft for Ⅴ engine with journals and crankpins of 315 mm dia. And two
types for in-line engines of 285 mm and 315 mm dia.

MAIN BEARING:

- Main bearing for Ⅴ and L engine with 315 mm dia. Crankshaft (Figure Ⅶ).

The main bearing includes a bearing housing of cast sheet fastened to each frame cross-wall by two
vertical studs (3) and two lateral tie bolts (19). The bearing cap is held against the bearing housing by a
jack through which flows the oil towards the main bearing.
In V-engine, each main bearing is fitted with temperature sensor for remote monitoring.

In in-Line engines these temperature sensors are optional.


The various probes are connected to a cable bundle running in a channel slid with the oil sump. The
connection with the monitor is through a multi-plug respectable attached to the oil sump at timing gear
end.

S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTENANCE MANUAL No. E025.01.00.2
FRAME – BEARINGS – CRANKSHAFT

BEARINGS:

Each main bearing is lined with two thin half-bearings. Both shells are of mild steel inwardly coated
with a copper lead layer itself coated with a thin tin lead layer. The back and sides are tinned.

EXTERNAL THRUST BEARING (Figure Ⅸ)

This thrust bearing is fitted at timing gear end and outside the engine. The bearing housing (1) (lower
part) is fastened to the frame. The cap (3) (upper part) is tightened on the bearing housing by two bolts
(6).

The casing upper part (2) held on the frame, joints against the bearing housing to form a tight assembly
on which the oil retainer casing is fastened.

OIL RETAINER:

Fitting on timing gear end (Figure Ⅹ):

It consists in two half casing (1 and 2) of light alloy fastened on the external thrust bearing and of a seal
(7) the lip of which rests against the coupling flange periphery. Should these seal leaks; a second seal
ring (8) clamped on the flange by means of a steel wire (9) constitutes an oil barrier the leak return to
the oil sump is realized through pipe (21).

Fitting on timing gear opposite end (Figure Ⅺ):

It includes a rim (50) fastened on the frame and a seal ring (52) the lip of which rests against the
periphery of a coupling flange at crankshaft end.

ENGINE FASTENING:

a) Marine engines (Figures Ⅻ and ⅩⅢ).

85
PC2-5 DIESEL ENGINES
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTENANCE MANUAL No. E025.01.00.3
FRAME – BEARINGS – CRANKSHAFT

The engine frame base flanges rest either on metal or resin wedges.

Fastening is either through two fit bolts at each bearing the other bolts at coupling end and
conventional bolts elsewhere plus lateral thrusts.

The bolts are of two types, either short drilled bolts (Figures Ⅻ) or long bolts plus spacers (FiguresⅩ
Ⅲ).

b) Land engines (FiguresⅩⅣ and ⅩⅤ).

The engine frame base flanges may rest either on a resin or shrink proof concrete wedging (FiguresⅩ
Ⅳ or on intermediate welded beams (Figure ⅩⅤ).

In the first case the engine is fastened by anchoring studs facing each bearing. In the second one the
engine is fastened on the beam by 4 fit bolts at coupling end, the other bolts being conventional ones.
Frame base flanges are laterally thrust pieces.

NOTE: The O-ring on the inspection door shall be replaced every 6 000 hours.

READING CONDITIONS

- It’s essential to repeat deflection readings under the same conditions (engine cold or warm) in
order to allow comparative analyses.
- Deflection readings shall be performed on cold engine, i.e.:

Definition of a cold engine:

Engine with no heating, main oil and water pumps stopped since 24 hours at least. It’s assumed
that under such conditions the masses of engine, engine bed, reducing gear, oil pump, are at the
same room temperature. However, deflection reading may be performed on warm engine 1 1/2 to 2
hours after engine stoppage when required. In case of deviations out of tolerance repeat the
reading under cold conditions for confirmation.

PC2-5 DIESEL ENGINES
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTENANCE MANUAL No. E025.01.0.1-2
FRAME – BEARINGS – CRANKSHAFT

- On certain ships the loading cadences are normally very rapid and sometimes entail important hull
staining what affects the engine bed. The loading shall therefore be stopped for at least 6 hours
before making deflection reading. Fore and aft draught as trimming constitute important
parameters to which shall be taken into consideration.

PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS

- Take off inspection doors.


- Engage the turning gear.

DEFLECTION READING:

Use a dial gauge (Figure 1) item SJ, with an 1/100 th mm scale, the graduation of which decreases
when the shank is depressed.

Both needles of the shank shall be placed into the existing center holes existing in webs at a 220 mm
distance from the inner generatrix of the crankpin (Figure 2).

Let the dial gauge pivot upon its needles to make sure that the pointer does not jerk. If it does, clean or
punch anew the center holes.

There are former shafts having no center hole, it’s then necessary to mark them at proper distance with
a punch sharped at 90°angle prior to the first reading in order that the dial gauge axis is parallel to the
crankpin one.

It’s preferable to set the dial gauge on “20”instead of “0”prior to begin to rotate the shaft in order
to prevent any mistake resulting from negative and positive readings.

The readings shall be made in the order corresponding to the successive positions of the crank shown
in reading sheet 1/4, and referred to an observator looking from engine outside towards the main
coupling on timing gear side (Figure 3).

Open the indicator cocks. Make the reading stopping the turning gear at each position. Don’t make the
reading the engine rotating.

PC2-5 DIESEL ENGINES
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTENANCE MANUAL No. E025.01.0.1-3
FRAME – BEARINGS – CRANKSHAFT

Crank deflection “d”is the difference between the value read the crank being in vertical position (the
dial gauge downwards, position C) and the average of the values read at L.H. and R.H. bottom i.e.:
A+E/2.

This difference is therefore positive + when the distance between the webs at crankpin vertical position
in larger than at bottom, and negative – in the opposite case. Enter the obtained values into page 1/4 of
the reading sheet.
The values thus recorded for the various cranks expressed in 1/100 th of mm, shall be plotted on graph
n°1 called ‘Deflection curve’ in page 3/4 of the reading sheet.

The curve of deviations “d”, difference between L.H. reading (position D) and R.H. reading (position B)
shall also be plotted graph 2 of page 3/4 of the reading sheet.

An irregularly shaped curve is always the indication of an anomaly. It’s then recommended to

Check the entered values by a second serie of readings. Should the anomalies be confirmed the
clearances between journal and lower bearing should be measured (see E025.01.07).

Corrected deflection:
As the calculation of corrected deflection is realized after the measure of clearances between journals
and bearings refer to this latter operation E 025.01.07.

INSPECTION.

This inspection may be realized stepwise depending on the results of each partial inspection.

Preliminary inspection.

- It’s visual and concerns the whole of the visible welds marked X (see Figure 2A and Figure 2B).
- Thoroughly clean the engine frame.
- Brush the welds by means of small wire wheel brushes fitted on a pneumatic or electric tool. The
use of a flexible facilitates the operation in place of poor accessibility (provided for hand and eye
protection).
- As a rule important cracks (longer than 50 mm) are visible with unaided eye; oil or fuel oozing is
almost immediate and call operator’s attention.
- In any case, the concerned zone shall be inspected.

Inspection equipment.

- Presently the magnaflux testing process with a magnetic yoke is the only may to determine
surely a crack.
The most suitable instrument is the ‘Contour probe’ mode DA 200 from Parker
Research, magnetic field and electronic solid state circuitry.

NOTE:

Penetrant flaw detection is no longer efficient when:

- The crack lends to close up.


- The temperature exceeds the normal one (30/35℃) unless using special penetrants.
- Machining or grinding tends to fill the crack.

TYPE OF DEFECTS

Cracks are of two types:

- Cracking of the weld itself (Figure 4).


- Cracking at weld junction (Figure 5).
Defects are of three types:
The defect may be of one of the following categories:
- Faulty welding: inclusion faulty restarting, blow hole…
Originally, the defect zones are often local and don’t affect the strength of the assembly. It’s
however advisable to repair them as they may be the origin of cracks in the most load areas.
- Crack initiations of the type shown figure 4 and figure 5 of length between 5 and 50 mm.
- Cracks longer than 50 mm often through the whole weld joint.
They may be originated by defects of the type shown Figure 4 or Figure 5.

THE IMMEDIATE REPAIR IS IMPOSSIBLE.

Carefully search for the crack end.


- Drill a 12 mm dia. hole through the plate at crack end.
- Look in the hole to make sure the crack does not extend beyond.
- Plug eventually the holes with pins or rivets machined from an annealed copper bar.

MAIN CASES OF CRACKINGS

Crackings regarding the base flange

Between the base flange resting on the engine bed or the foundation block and the vertical wall of the
frame.

These cracks are not frequent. Access is easy and the repair raises no difficulty.

Crackings in cross wall supporting main bearings (frame of B type).

Generally these cracks initiate at weld junction. They propagate anarchically through the wall up to the
entablature or the outer vertical plates.

Crackings in reinforcing plates between roof and supporting plate (frame of B type)

NOTE:

From experience there is always a possibility for weld repair in case of frame tearing after
breakdown, in so far as the frame was the subject of no deformation.

WHEN CRACKS ARE OBSERVED

Take engine builders’ advise to make the repair.

bearing to be inspected (see Figure 1). Make sure it will not move during pressure build up and
will remain perpendicular to the web face and the frame.
- Position dial gauge indicator item SJ held on the frame by its magnetic base so that its contact
point is vertical and as near as possible from the jack, and set it to zero.

- The minimum oil pressure to be applied is 225 ㎏/㎝ 2 what corresponds to a 10 tons force on the
web.
- The vertical displacement of the web is read on the dial gauge. Note it in 1/100 th of mm.
- The corresponding clearance between journal and lower bearing is terms of applied load and
web displacement is given by diagram.
Example: should the read displacement be 8/100 mm and the pressure in the jack 300 bar, the
existing clearance is 7/100 mm.
- Position the jack and the dial gauge against the other web, and repeat the above described
operation.
- Repeat the same operation for every crank.

The clearance measured on both sides of the same main bearing may be different as the results are
affected by the clearance in the non-adjacent main bearing.
When measuring the clearances in the two main bearings adjacent to a same crank only the larger
one is to be considered.

UTILIZATION OF RESULTS

- The deflection and clearance reading records shall be compared to the original one.
- When a deviation exists, look into the preceding readings to find the date of the first
anomalousness and the evolution speed.

When a discontinuous evolution may be observed, it’s the indication of a serious damage in the
installation, such as engine bed deformation, collapse of external bearing, etc…
Such a damage may entail shortly the excessive wear of one or more half bearing(s) with all the risks
involved for the crankshaft. Inspection frequency shall then been increased.

Corrected deflection

- Should ‘d’ be the crank deflection, and ‘j’ the larger clearance of this crank, the corrected
deflection is: dc=d+0.5j.

The permissible limits are:

- Deflection in the crank the nearest of the load:


-If there is an external bearing:-0.08mm.
-If there is no external bearing:-0.11mm.
-

127
CHAPTER 1
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. FRAM- BEARINGS-CRANKSHAFT
No. E025.01.07-3

- Other crank deflections:±0.06mm.


- Clearance:≤0.06mm.
- Corrected deflections: ±0.06mm.

TROUBLE SHOOTING IN CASE OF LIMIT OVERSTEPPING

- Inspect half bearing condition.


When wears are unequal:
- If the larger wear corresponds to a clearance out of tolerance look for the cause: faulty lubrication,
local pollution, etc…Remedy it and replace the half bearing.
- If the maximum wear corresponds to a small or zero clearance but to a positive deflection, it’s
that one of the neighboring main bearing has collapsed. Localize it by the level of wear and
deflections of adjacent main bearings and cranks as well as by its own wear.

The cause may be:

- Broken main bearing stud.


- Crack in frame cross wall to find it subject the cross wall to penetrant inspection as well as the
weld in the plane of the concerned bearing. Repair and align the main bearing in conformity with
builders’ instructions.

When everything is O.K. from the bearing standpoint:

- The engine cold, disconnect any coupling and remove external bearing (take engine builders’
advice).
- Make deflection and under journal clearance readings and compare with the corresponding
readings made during engine installation. Anyhow the clearance shall be smaller than 0.03mm
and the deflections between plus and minus 0.03mm. The deviation between two successive
cranks shall not be greater than 0.03mm.

Should the here above tolerances be met, the trouble results from the external bearing or from its
misalignment with the driven machines.
- Repeat the adjustments in conformity with the related instructions.

Should these tolerances be exceeded, it may be a matter of a deformation of the base.


Verify in conformity with the layout of engine room instructions.
Remedy by repeating engine adjustment as per builders’ instructions.

1 – DESCRIPTION
ENGINE CYLINDER
The engine cylinder is made of a water-jacket and of a liner.
- Water-jacket for type frame (Figure II):
For V and L engines.
In that case the water-jacket rests and is centered on the frame top plate; its orientation is ensured
by a locating pin (12) at its lower part.
- Liner:
It’s of centrifugally cast iron. It’s fitted in the water-jacket.
The tightness between liner and water-jacket and liner and frame is realized by 5 O-rings of
rubber of suitable quality (4 O-rings for liner water-jacket tightness, 1 O-ring for liner-frame
tightness).
Liner may freely expand downwards. A port in the frame allows however to detect eventual
leakages between liner and water-jacket. This port permits the passage of the water intake pipe
to the water-jacket bottom.
- Cooling circuit:
The two cooling zones of the liner are delimited by its seating and centering in the water-jacket.
After a peripheral circulation between the liner and water-jacket lower parts the water flows into
the upper gallery through a belt of equidistant drillings in the liner wall before to be discharged in
the cylinder head
- Positioning and fastening of liner and water-jacket:
The angular positioning of the liner with respect to the water-jacket and that of the water-jacket with
respect to the frame are realized by means of lugs.
The water-jacket liner cylinder head assembly is held to the frame by eight studs and nuts. The
tightening is achieved by elastic elongation of the studs by means of hydraulic jack, and then
tighten the nut by hand, tighten after relieve the pressure.

POSTON
- One-piece cast-iron piston (Figure IV):
It’s cooled by shaker effect. A hole drilled in the top part of the piston allows the oil to flow from the
annular cooling gallery towards the crankcase.
The piston pin: of special nitriding steel, treated and trued is hollow and floating fitted.

150
S.X.D.- CHAPTER 2
No. E025-02-00/2
S.E.M.T. WATER-JACKETS-LINERS-PISIONS-CONNECTING-RODS

It’s laterally held by two steel retaining rings. A tube delimites, in pin center, a space for cooling oil flow
from the con-rod to the piston crown.
Piston rings: There are 6 of them: one top ring three compression rings and two oil scrapers. Holes
drilled in piston wall at second scraper level allow oil discharge.

CON-ROD (Figure V):

For V and L engines, 315 mm dia. crankshaft.


This con-rod is of the oblique rack tooth joint type.
The cap is held by four screws. The tightening is checked by elongation reading.

OIL CIRCULATION:

The con-rod big end lubrication is through a diametral drilling in the crankpin. The main part of the oil
enters then the groove milled in the con-rod cap via the perforated groove in the lower half bearing.

The oil flows then upwards to the small end through a duct drilled in the con-rod body. After lubrication
of the con-rod small end the oil flows across the piston pin, circulates in the piston cooling gallery then
back to the crankcase.

ROUGHENING OF CYLINDER LINERS


This can be carried out without dismantling the liners.
When it is necessary to replace one or more of the rings, it is essential to roughen the cylinder liner
before replacing the piston.

In these circumstances a lower degree of roughness (35 to 70 micro inches CLA), then that found on
the liner when new (80 to 120 micro inches CLA or 2 to 3 micro Ra) is admissible. The object of this
roughness is to effect rapid and intimate contact between wearing surfaces to provide an effective seal
between the liner and rings. If the engine is not dismantled after several hundred hours of operation the
surface condition of the liner will stabilize and this will be indicated by normal oil consumption.

NOTE:
Before any roughening takes place, the wear edging formed in the liner at the limits of the top ring
stroke must be removed. This operation is effected by means of a small portable grinding wheel (see
Figure 5).

PRELIMINARY STEPS

- Removal of piston-cod-rod assembly (E025.02.03).


Carefully protect all components (crankshaft, crankcase, etc…) against the cleaning product
(detergent or grease remover) and against abrasive if a cutting fluid is used, by placing a leak
proof bag at the bottom of the liner with, if necessary, a spout to lead the fluid outside the engine.
- Clean the liner with a concentrated solution of standard detergent or an industrial
grease-removing agent (Polexine). Rinse with clean water.

169
S.X.D.- CHAPTER 2
No. E025.02.05/2
S.E.M.T. WATER-JACKETS-LINERS-PISIONS-CONNECTING-RODS

- Dry with a clean cotton cloth and lubricate.

OPERATIONS

a) Manual:

If no special equipment is available this operation can be carried out using n°3 emery cloth (or a piece
of 80 grain size grinding wheel) to roughen liners by hand. The operator should endeavor to obtain a
uniformly roughened, from the upper edge of the liner, should be within 85 mm and 700 mm. To keep
the stone clean dip it into kerosene a regular interval.

b) Mechanical: Omit
RING REPLACEMENT
Removal:
- Remove in sequence and using the pliers reference A Figure 3, the top and compression rings.
- Free the scraper ring from its spring by hand and remove it.
- Open the spring by freeing one end of the connection piece.
- Remove spring.
- Clean grooves (E025.02.08) and read the dimensions (see clearances and wear table
E025.00.04).
Fitting:
- Starting with the lower ring, position the two scraper rings as follows:
- Place spring in the groove, connecting its both ends.
- Position the scraper ring by hand around the spring in the groove making sure that the ring gap
and spring joint are diametrically opposed.
- Fit the 3 compression rings as indicated below starting with the lowest one. Then fit the top ring.

- Open ring with pliers.


Check that the ring is correctly positioned against the plier ring.
- Place ring in its groove and slowly separate the plier handles to free it.
- Remove pliers.
- Lubricate using engine oil and arrange rings so that gaps are staggered (see E025.02.02).
- Ring replacement requires necessarily liner roughening.

15 II - 99.360.0000.05 PR 1005 L (from, Philadelphia resin
Corporation PRC).

To prevent the eventual fracture of the cylinder head holding studs resulting from the corrosion of their
anchor threads it’s necessary to inspect the condition of the protective packing in the supporting plate
and to restore it when necessary.

SEALING MASTIC

PR 1005 L is a synthetic rubber dissolution. The product vulcanizes at ambient temperature; it offers a
first rate resistance to hydrocarbons and water.

APPLICATION

The product shall be applied, the stud screwed up, so as to realize a packing between the stud base
shank and the supporting plate as shown Figure 1.

Operating process:

a) Surface preparation: to obtain a good adhesion, the concerned surfaces shall be cleaned with a
wire brush and degreased with a solvent.
b) The PR1005 L is applied by brush, in two or three layers giving the brush a rotative movement to
facilitate the penetration of the product. It’s necessary to let the layer dry for about 20 min, or
become firm, before applying a new one.

The vulcanization time depends on the ventilation and temperature. As the layers may be 0.05 mm
thick, they loose their surface adhesiveness in 20 min at 25 ℃ and have a sufficient adhesion and
solidness after 4 hours. After loss of surface adhesiveness the vulcanization may be sped up by hot air
circulation at 40 ℃.

1- DESCRIPTION

CYLINDER HEAD (Figure 1)

The cylinder head is made of cast-iron; its general outer shape is that of an octagonal prism. It’s
clamed against the cylinder liner through a gasket by means of eight studs anchored in the frame and
passing through the water jacket.

The head is fitted with:

- Two exhaust valves,


- Two intake valves,
- One injection nozzle,
- One indicator cock,
- One starting valve for B bank of V-engine and one stopper for A bank of V-engine.
- One safety valve for marine propulsion engine or eventually one stopper for land engine.

INTAKE VALVES (Figure II)

Each intake valve spindle slides in a cast-iron body (2) held on the cylinder by three studs and nuts.
The body includes two guide bushes (7 and 8).

Two return springs (3 and 4) rest against the body (2) and a spring collar (5) keyed on the valve spindle
by a two-piece taper key (6).

The tightness between the cylinder head and the valve body if realized by one ring (9).
A tappet transmits the push of the rocker arm.
Intake valve seats are directly machined in the cylinder head.

EXHAUST VALVES WITH VALVE ROTATORS (Figure III and IV):

These valves are of heat resisting steel with protected head. Each exhaust valve spindle slides in a
cast-iron body of cast iron and cooled by water circulation in series with the cylinder head. Water
passage between head and valve body are realized by two bushes (219) fitted with O-ring.

201
S.X.D.- CHAPTER 3
No. E025.03.00-2
S.E.M.T. FITTED OUT CYLINDER HEAD

There are two types of valve seat:


- One non-cooled one, in two-piece made of a cast-iron body as upper part and of a heat-resisting
seat at the lower part (Figure III).
- One cooled one, in one piece of cast steel or iron with the lower part of cast steel (Figure IV).

The assembly is held on the cylinder head by three long studs and nuts and spacing tubes to increase
the elasticity and balance cage thermal expansion.
An O-ring (28) ensures the tightness between the head and the valve body.
The two springs (22 and 23) rest on the valve body and on the other hand on an assembly including a
bush (37) a spring collar (41) and a valve rotator (740). The assembly is held on the spindle by a
two-piece taper key (39).

EXHAUST VALVES WITH COOLED HEAD (Figure V):

That arrangement includes a valve made of several but non-disassemblable pieces. The clack and the
shank are groove.
The cooling water is by-passed from cylinder head circuit through two calibrated nipples ensuring the
passage of given water flow in the valve.
The spring collar (58) allows the water flow to the valve spindle.
Connection between nipples (45) and spring collar (58) is by flexible hose (52).

STANDARD STARTING VALVES (Figure VI):

As the engines are compressed-air started, a number of cylinder head are fitted with an air-starting
valve the cast-iron body (51 of which is held in a taper seat in the cylinder head by two studs and nuts.
This valve (52) pressed against it seat by spring (54) opens under the pressure of the compressed air
supplied by the air distributor.

NOTE:
As a rule, air starting valves are fitted on the cylinder heads of the B bank of V engine; the
starting through one bank being possible in almost all engines.
In such a case, a stopper replaces the starting valve on A bank cylinder head.

QUICK OPENING STARTING VALVE (Figure VII):

This valve is fitted in engines with air braking system. The top part of the valve is made by a piston (13)
and a (cylinder). The piston is fed through its hollow rod with air from the distributor. The multiplication
of the force thus obtained allows to speed up the valve opening.

SAFETY VALVE (Figure VIII):

This valve includes a cast-iron body (109) held in a taper seating in the cylinder head by studs and
nuts.
This valve (117) includes a steel rod and a cast-iron needle pinned to the spindle. It’s pressed against
its seat by a spring (115) the lower part of which rests against a bronze guide bush (118) with
intermediate spacing washer (217) allowing spring calibration.

The spindle end, the accessibility to which is ensured by unscrewing plug (126) from the top flange
(122) acting as spring bearing piece, is slotted and thread to allow a loosening or an eventual lapping
by means of a screw driver.

In case of overpressure in the cylinder, the valve open and gases escape outside through a drilling in
the cylinder head. On cylinder heads non-fitted with safety valves the corresponding wells are fitted
with stoppers.

VALVE GEAR TOP SYSTEM (Figure IX):

Rocker-arm bracket is held on the cylinder head by four studs and nuts.
The system includes a short fulcrum pin supporting a Y rocker-arm (164) controlling the exhaust valves,
and a longer fulcrum pin supporting the two rocking levers (158 and 161) controlling the intake valves.
The rocker arms are controlled by push rods transmitting the displacements of the roller tappets
controlled by the cams of the camshafts.

The push rods are fitted into protection tubes.


The valve tappet clearance is adjusted by screws (373) with ball-ended tappet (174) locked by a lock
nut.
The lubrification of the assembly is by separate circuit.

CHAPTER 3
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. FITTED OUT CYLINDER HEAD

PARTS INSPECTION

VALVES

Normal appearance:
The valve head face facing the combustion chamber is subject to corrosion and presents an orange
peel aspect. This corrosion may propagate under the facing (Figure 1).
After a few hundreds working hours, the facing is mottled and apparently uneven, it may show local
indents.
In engines run on heavy fuel oil, facing is coated with a thin vitrified deposit. Valve spindle may show
scratches at lower guide level.
After a working time (the length of which depends essentially on the burnt fuel vanadium content and
engine operation) the valve facing may show burns inspections.

After cleaning, proceed to the following inspections:


- Visually inspect the facing (see reference photos, Figure 2).
-Any burn trace, however small it may be entails valve rejection.
- Any indent the major dimension of which is larger than 5 mm entails re-machining.
-Seating surfaces showing numerous indents shall be re-machined. For exhaust valves made of
“NIMO”, it is normal for it to have numerous indents after initial running. But no gas leakage shall
be entailed therefrom.
- Subject facing to penetrate flaw detection. Any crack entails valve rejection.

- Check the valve head corrosion rate. Reject valves where it reaches the limits shown figure 1.
- Hone out valve spindle scratches and check spindle diameter as requested in wear reading sheet.
Reject valves when the wear reaches “LA” limit.
- Check the valve head corrosion rate. Reject valves where it reaches the limits shown figure 1.
- Hone out valve spindle scratches and check spindle diameter as requested in wear reading sheet.
Reject valves when the wear reaches “LA” limit.
- Measure valve head facing thickness.
- Reject the valve when the thickness is equal to or thinner than 0.5 mm (Figure 3).
- With regard to one-piece valve disk, it shall be rejected when the thickness of the valve disk is less
than 8mm due to wear and remachining.
- Inspect visually the groove for semi-circular keys to make sure it is free from hammering or fretting
trace. Hone out scratches; reject the valves when the scratches are too deep.

229
CHAPTER 3
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. FITTED OUT CYLINDER HEAD
NO. E 025.03.05-3

- Inspect visually the spindle end subject to tappet action. Should it show impact traces, the valves
shuts lazily or even remains open due to gumming or seizing in the guides.
-Make sure the lube-oil is of the required quality and regularly changed.
-Hone the shallow indentations; reject the parts showing deep ones.
-Measure rocker-arm retaining ring wear (see 025.03.10).
- Check valve spindle straightness fitting it in a new cage with new guides. The valve must slide
freely, if not reject it.
- Check valve head warping fitting the valve in a new cage with new guides. A 0.04 mm feeler gauge
shall not be possibly inserted between the cage and valve facing from the outside. If not the defect
shall be eliminated by machining the valve facing surface, insofar as the valve condition is
otherwise satisfactory.
- Visual inspection of spindle coating at lower guide bush level. If the coating begins to work lose,
the valve shall be reconditioned in a specialize workshop.
- Check water flow rate which shall be 4l/mm under 500mmHg pressure. The test shall be made the
spring collar and both standard flexible fitted.

Caution:
When the valve facing shows a notable warping or the valve spindle a deflection, it may results from
the impact of the valve against the piston due to:
- A foreign body introduced into the combustion chamber after an injury. Ascertain that the valve
gear parts are not damaged.
- Engine overspeeding. Check the overspeed safety device works properly.

VALVE GAGES

Normal appearance:
The part housed in the cylinder-head exhaust well is covered with crumbly black carbon or with a black
viscous deposit when the engine has been idling for a long time before being stopped. Depending on
the fuel burnt and lube-oil used greenish yellow and whitish deposits may be found.

230
CHAPTER 3
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. FITTED OUT CYLINDER HEAD
NO. E 025.03.05-4

The seat surface is not notably carbonized and bright. Some local indentations may be observed.

After cleaning, proceed to the following inspections:


- Inspect visually the seating surface.
-Any burn trace, however small it may be, entails part rejection.
-Any indentation the major diameter of which is larger than 5 mm entails seat re-machining.
- Inspect visually the bearing surface with cylinder head. Any burn trace from gas blowby entails part
rejection.
- Subject cage lower part bearing surfaces and seating to penetrate flow detection. Any crack
indication entails part rejection.
- Measure seat metal remaining thickness. Reject parts when that thickness is equal to or smaller
than 1.5 mm (Figure 5). For cooled cage seat check water flow rate and perform and hydraulic test
to detect cracks, porosities and scaling.
- Flow rate test:
The flow rate shall be within 60 and 85 l/min under a 0.5 bar pressure (Pressure gauge see figure
12).
Hydraulic test pressure, 10 bar.
Descale by forced circulation up to there is not longer emulsion at part outlet, repeating the
operation several times (descaling products, see appendix 25).
- The washing with a neutralizing compound (2-3% sodium carbonate solution) is recommended
after cleaning.

Exhaust valve cage truing


Truing shall be performed for the same reasons as the valve.
Seats are often ground not because they are poor condition, but because a clearance is observed
when cold between the seat and face along the seating periphery.
This clearance results from a creeping difference in cage legs caused by temperature differences in
exhaust duct. However, as soon as the engine run, the difference in expansion of the cage legs
balances that seating unevenness. Consequently, the seats shall be trued only when the clearance in a
valve otherwise in good condition exceeds 0.4 mm.

VALVE ROTATORS (Figure 8)


Reject valve rotators the rotation speed of which has stepped down below 1 rpm.

HALF CONES (III-39)


Inspect visually their condition. Reject parts showing fretting or deep scores.

SPRINGS
Inspect visually their aspect. Reject springs the wire of which is deeply injured.

WATER SLEEVES
Make sure that the sleeves show no fretting trace on both sides of the gasket grooves.
Reject sleeves with freeting trace.

VALVE AND CAGE RECONDITIONING


Any building up of valve and cage is forbidden (take engine builders` advice).
The re-machining of the seats, as well on valve as on the cage, shall be undertaken only in case of
warping or marking.
Within a few hour hundreds, seat surfaces are mottled and apparently uneven. This aspect stabilizes. It
is not a defect indication and therefore entails no part reconditioning.

232
CHAPTER 3
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. FITTED OUT CYLINDER HEAD
NO. E 025.03.05-6

It’s illusory to try to machine out burns, even when slight. As a matter of fact burn cause metal structure
deteriorations which will entail further damage shortly afterwards.

An angular difference between valve and cage seats makes the seating slightly preponderant on the
outsides:
- Respect tolerances on angles on angles when reconditioning the parts.
- Do not lap strongly the valves against cage seating as this would eliminate interference angle.

VALVES

The facing is susceptible to thermal shocks.

A sudden heating will cause micro-cracks non-perceptible to the eye, which will lead, in service, to an
untimely destruction by burning.
A number of precautions have therefore to be taken when reconditioning the seat:
- Grinding shall be carried out in specialized workshops having suitable machines and more
specially grinding machines in which the part and the wheel are fully lubricated.
- Use cutting tools with built up tungsten carbide tip (see figure 6).
-Sharpening angle: 15°.
-Clearance angle: 6°
- Select a cutting speed between 10 and 15 m/mm i.e. a valve rotation speed of 30-45 rpm.
- Depth of cut: 0.15 mm.
- Feed: 0.15 mm per rotation.
- Abundant soluble oil cooling.
- Cut from larger to smaller diameter.

233
CHAPTER 3

Valve fitting on the machines:


- Do not use center hole if any.
- Do not drill or re-drill, center hole.
- Machine valve and seat according to figure 7 indications.
After reconditioning:
The plating shall be subject to penetrate flow detection. As far as possible this test will be carried out
several day after machining so as to allow stress relieving. Reject valves showing crack indications.
Fit the valve in a new cage.
- Make sure a 0.05 mm feeler does not enter the seat joint from the outer side. When some wraping
remains, centering properly the valve on the machine.
- Check that the thickness of the remaining plating is 0.5 mm at the least (Figure 3).
Marking:
At each reconditioning, mark the valve as shown figure 7 by means of an electrical engraver.

VALVE CAGE
GUIDE REPLACEMENT

Grind off the nitrited layer of the guide to be replaced.


- Weld a round bar inside the guide.
- Drive out the guide using a bronze rod and stricking on the welded round.
- Press fit the new guide.

SEAT RECONDITIONDING

a) Non cooled seats

Cage seat also is susceptible to thermal shock. It’s therefore recommended to use cutting process as
for valve facings.
The cage being removed fit it in its centring bridge (figure 9).

234
CHAPTER 3
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. FITTED OUT CYLINDER HEAD
NO. E 025.03.05-8

Ascertain the concentricity of the conical bearing face on the cylinder head. Cut off a minimum amount
of metal from this surface and without removing the cage from the lathe, machine the valve seat, using
the same tools, feed, cutting speed, cooling and taking the same precautions as for valve facings.

b) Cooled seats

Cooled seats may be machined as non-cooled ones or ground. Therefore, provided that precautions
are taken, the seat reconditioning may be dry performed, by grinding, by means of a portable grinder of
the “CHRIS-MARINE” type, centering in the guides (figure 10). The machine shall obligatorily include a
feeding attachment (figure 11), the grinding of the whole seat width being to prohibit because of the
grinding crack the excessive heating causes.

After reconditioning:
The cage seat shall be subject to penetrate flow detection. As far as possible this test will be carried
out several day after reconditioning so as to allow stress relieving. Reject cages showing crack
indications.
Check that the thickness of the remaining plating is 0.5 mm at the least (Figure 5).
Marking:
At each reconditioning mark the cage as shown figure 5.

Valve rotator reconditioning:


- Remove retaining ring (8-4) and disassemble the parts.
- Clean the part dipping them into gas-oil.
- Replace parts showing wear scores or ball traces (8-1) (8-2) (8-3).
- Replace balls (8-5) when showing spalling or squaring traces.
- When reassembling take care to place the balls in the oblique part of the housing and to press
home the springs in place prior to fit spring washer (8-3).

Use of reconditioned valves and cages:

The use of reconditioned valves and cages shall be subject to the following precautions:

- Check the free sliding of the valve in the guides (oil the spindle).
- Press the valve head against the cage and check that a 0.05mm feeler cannot be inserted in the
outside of the joint. If the feeler can be insert check the parts and recondition anew the faulty one.
- Carry out a blue mark test of the cage and valve seating. This seating shall be on an outside
peripherical band 1 to 2 mm wide and may be achieved when necessary through a slight lapping
all along the periphery.

PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS

Inlet valve dismounting (E 025.03.07).

OPERATIONS

Burns of intake valve facing result, generally, from the presence of water in the charge air (see
operating instructions). They mainly occur in the vicinity of the air-coolers. In such a case, it shall be
ascertained that:
- The charge air temperature control system works satisfactorily.
- The air dryers fitted at air-cooler outlet are in good condition and that the collected water is properly
drained.
- There is no water leakage in the air cooler.
- There is no crack in the cylinder-head opening in the intake valve well.
- Make eventually the suitable repairs.

Part inspection:

Because of the cylinder-head bottom deformation resulting from temperature differences during
operation the seating of the cold intake valve in used cylinder head is not continuous, a misseating as
shown figure 1 is observed.

It does not exist in new or reconditioned parts, but appears after some working time. It is not a defect
as the continuous seating being effective when the parts are warm.

After dismantling and cleaning, check as follows:

VALVE
- Inspect visually the facing
-The facing is normally mottled and show some indents (figure 2).
-Any burn trace however small it may be entails valve rejection.
-Any indent the major dimension or which is larger than 5 mm entails facing reconditioning.
- Subject facing to penetrate flow detection – any crack entails valve rejection.
- Measure plating thickness – valve with plating thinner than 0.5 mm shall be reject (figure 3).
- Inspect visually valve spindle – reject valves showing plating spalling traces (figure 4).
- Subject spindle to penetrate flow detection - any crack entails valve rejection.
- Measure spindle wear, as per wear measurement sheet, reject valves the wear of which exceeds
“LA” limit.
- Check valve spindle straightness fitting it in an “as new” cylinder head fitted with a cage with “as
new” guides. The valve shall slide freely. If not reject it.
- Check facing warping, the valve being pressed against the “as new” seat.
- The 0.05 mm feeler shall not enter the outside joint.
- Warped valve heads may be reconditioned by facing machining.

Caution:

- When the valve facing shows a notable warping or the valve spindle a deflection, it may result from
the impact of the valve against the piston.
- A foreign body introduced into the combustion chamber after an injury. Ascertain that the valve
gear parts are not damaged.
- The spindle deflection may also result from the wear of the pad fitted onto tappet clearance
adjusting screw. Inspect the pads and replace worn ones, as well as rocker-arm bushes (see
E025.03.10).

249
CHAPTER 3
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. FITTED OUT CYLINDER HEAD

- Inspect visually the groove for semi-circular keys to make sure it is free from hammering or fretting
trace.
- Inspect visually the spindle end subject to tappet action. It must be smooth and free from impact or
seizure trace. Hone out eventual traces.

GUIDES

Measure guide wear in conformity with wear measurement sheet. Guides the wear of which exceeds
“LA” limit shall be replaced.

CYLINDER-HEAD SEAT

- When cleaned, the seat shall appear bright. Some local indents are permissible.
- Seats showing numerous indents or indents larger than 5 mm, or burns, shall be reconditioned.
- When the reconditioning limit is reached an insert may be fitted.

SEMI-CIRCULAR KEYS

Inspect visually the keys. Reject those showing fretting trace or deep marks.

SPRINGS

Inspect visually their aspect. Reject springs the wire of which is deeply injured.

VALVE AND CYLINDER-HEAD SEAT RECONDITIONING

Any valve building up is to be forbidden (take engine builder’s advise).

The valve seat reconditioning shall be undertaken only in case of deep marking or warping.

After a few hundreds of operation hours seating surfaces are mottled and of uneven appearance. This
aspect stabilizes, it does not constitute a defect and therefore no reconditioning in needed.

- Respect tolerances on angles when reconditioning the parts.
- Don’t lap the valve against cylinder-head seat as it would eliminate interference angle.

VALVES

Valve facing material consists in a nickel base alloy the Vickers hardness number of which is 220.
缺句

The reconditioning may be carried out:


- Either by grinding in a specialized workshop fitted with suitable machine and more specially with
grinding machines in which part and wheel are fully lubricated.
- Or by lathing, using the tool available on the site but preferably cutting tools with built up tungsten
carbide tip.

Cutting conditions are as follows:


-cutting angles 15°
-clearance angle 6°

- Select a cutting speed between 15 and 25 m/min, i.e. a rotation speed of 25-40 rpm.
- Depth of cut: 0.15 mm.
- Feed: 0.15 mm per rotation.
- Abundant cooling with soluble oil solution.
- Cuts from larger to smaller diameter.

SEAT RECONDITIONING

Machine in compliance with figure 6 indications, using tool item A.

Checks after reconditioning:

Subject the seat to penetrate flow detection. Should crack indications be observed the cylinder head
would be either repaired by means of a valve seat insert or rejected.

VALVE SEAT INSERT FITTING

This repair shall be carried out when the cylinder-head has reached the reconditioning limit dimension
or is severely damaged (seat burn, crack …).
In case of seat cracking it is necessary prior to any repair, to make sure the head has no other injury
impeding its use. For that the whole of the cylinder-head intake duct shall be subject to visual
inspection and a penetrate flow detection, as well as to a hydraulic test. Should other crack be found,
the cylinder head will be rejected.

Valve seat inserts are chilled into liquid nitrogen prior their insertion. Refer to the technical note about
nitrogen fittings.

Post fitting check:


- Fit a valve holder fitted with new guides.
- Install and press a new valve against the seat insert and make sure a 0.05 mm feeler does not
enter the joint. Should it do the seat insert will be adjusted in the same way as the cylinder-head
seat.

1 – DESCRIPTION

INJECTION NOZZLE (Figure 1)

The spray nozzle (260) is held against the holder body (210) by assembly nut (8). A locating pin (120)
determines its angular position.

The needle is returned against its seat by pressure spring (10) acting on pressure pin (113).

Injection nozzle opening pressure is adjusted by means of adjusting screw (7).

The injection nozzle is held on the cylinder head by two studs.

A mild steel gasket (6) realizes the tightness between the injector and the cylinder head.

The tightness between the spray nozzle and the holder body is ensured by metal-to-metal contact.
Fuel leaks flow through the clearance around the needle in the spray nozzle. These leaks are normal,
and are collected in the guide and spring housing then return outside through the cylinder head. May
be eventually added casual leakages cause by a faulty tightness between spray nozzle and holder
body.

The injection nozzle is water cooled by a separate cooling circuit.

A faulty tightness between spray nozzle and holder body may entail fuel-in-water.

INJECTION PUMP DISCHARGE PIPE (Fig. Ⅱ)

The injection pump to nozzle connection is realized by means of a straight-drilled pipe, crossing the
cylinder head wall and fixed in the injection nozzle, the other end being directly connected to the
injection pump.

A tight system including a flange (2) a sleeve (7) and a nut (9) allow to collect fuel leaks.

INJECTION PUMP(Fig. Ⅲ)

The injection pumps (one per cylinder) are controlled by the camshaft (see chapter 5). They are of
the helix plunger type.

In a cast-iron housing (1) are fitted:


- The barrel (12)plunger (13)assembly.
- The control rack (26)and sector gear (27)controlling plunger angular position to control the
injected quantity.

A spring (62)applies the plunger against the roller tappet (see chapter 5) through the tappet (63).

- Tappet(63) is fitted with 4 flap valves (65) fastened by a flap valve box(64).
- A safety valve(68) is fitted on the housing(1).
- The four flap valves are used to raise the pump plungers in case of overspeed (see chapter 10).
- The safety valve prevents the pressure to build up in the housing. A retaiting ring (22)prevents the
roller tappet to go out when the pump is taken off.
- The pump head includes a delivery valve(8), a spring(9), a thrust piece (10), a seat(5)
and a delivery valve holder(3). The assembly is held by 6 screw(7). Fuel supply and return are
through two pipes(51 and 52)flanged on the housing and facing barrel parts.

- Should the jets be of unequal length, clean the nozzle holes with needles of tool B (figure 3).
- Adjust the calibration pressure when the atomization occurs under a 300kg/cm3 pressure.
- When there is no atomization, or no clear stop in the atomization, or when there is a fuel oozing at
nozzle tip or a leak at fuel inlet gasket, or when fuel flows out by cooling ducts, send the injection
nozzle for reconditioning in a specialized shops.

TESTING OF TIGHTNESS

- Maintain the pressure above 100kg/cm3 without injection for 10 seconds. No droplet shall form at
nozzle tip.

Note:
Don’t mistake the oozing resulting from a faulty tightness between needle and seat occurring
between two injections and the formation of one or two droplets at test end which result from
the dead space between the needle and the nozzle holes causing, the gas oil to flow by gravity
what’s normal.

ADJUSTMENT OF NEEDLE LIFT PRESSURE

- Take off locking pin (Ⅰ-5)


- Unscrew adjusting screw (Ⅰ-7) by two rotations.

- In the case of reversible engine, test the advance in the other running direction, the permissible
deviation is +-2°.
- Achieve pump fitting.

In service replacement of a plunger-barrel assembly when the pump is not calibrated:

In case of service replacement of an assembly, the new one may be among more or less worn
elements. It’s therefore possible to have for a same injected quantities, deviations in control rack
position which may reacts up to 3 mm at full load.

At fitting adjust the injection pump for the original advance and at the same control rack position as
other pumps.

Test the maximum firing pressure and if a difference is observed with the other cylinders adjust the
control rack position along a maximum 3 mm stroke.

The influence of a control rack adjustment on the maximum firing pressure is not as substantial as the
adjustment of the advance but such an adjustment for a cylinder shall be proscribed.

The temperature of the cylinder fitted with the “as new” assembly shall therefore be adjusted at the
value found before the supersession, or given in the typical test sheet at the considered cylinder of the
other bank when both banks are well balanced of the temperature standpoint.

- Make sure that the temperature sensor at the concerned cylinder outlet is in good condition.
- In the case of exhaust pipes grouping several cylinders and when the flow rates are balanced, the
temperature sensor indications may reveal temperature differences reacting +-35℃ with respect
to the averaged exhaust temperatures of the engine.

1. DESCRIPTION
CAMSHAFT (FigureⅠandⅡ):
Each cylinder bank is fitted with a camshaft.
The timing gear mounting on the output of the crankshaft drives the camshaft. The intake, exhaust and
injection cams are of case hardened steel and fitted on the shaft. The inlet、outlet valves and the
injection pumps are driven though the follower guides.
These cams are either of monoblock construction in which case they are hot shrunk onto the shaft or
in-two pieces and assembled by screws. The latter type is mainly used for repair after cutting away a
damaged monoblock cam.

NOTE:

Two-piece exhaust and intake cams for reversible engines are made to be used only as emergency
repair to allow the ship to wait up to her next technical docking to replace the two-piece cams by
standard solid ones.

In installation fitted with two-piece cams however the condition of these cams, and more specially of
the holding screws, shall be ascertained after 500, 1000 and 3000 operation hours.

Reversible engines are fitted with two profile cams for intake and exhaust valves (one profile for
forwards operation the other for reverse operation); both profiles being connected by slide ramps. The
camshaft translation controlled by a pressure cylinder achieves reversing. Because of the lateral stress
during translation, the cams are locked onto the shaft by a pin (Ⅶ-6) for screw (Ⅶ-3) for fuel injection
cam.

VALVE CONTROL MECHANISM (Figure Ⅲ):


Cast-iron cam follower guides (304) slide inside the cast-iron box (301) fastened to the frame roof
plate.
The transmission of the movement to the valve push-rods is realized by means of treated ball pins
(311), acting as seat to push rods. A spring (310) takes up the lash at rocker-arm holding the push rod
against the rocker-arm tappet. The push-rod protection tubes (356) are socketed in the roller tappet
body.

INJECTION PUMP CONTROL (Figure Ⅳ):


The injection pump control mechanism is located in a cast-iron body (4) held on the frame supporting
plate by four screws (23).

331
CHAPTER5
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. CAMSHAFT-VALVE AND INJERCTION NO. E025.05.00-2
PUMP CONTROL

The cam follower guide (11) slides inside of a fixed bush (8) centered in the body.
A spring (19) applies the roller against the cam. The tappet body (17) is fastened on the cam follower
guide top part. It includes the adjusting screw (18) the bearing face of which is treated. This screw
allows adjusting the injection advance it’s locked by screw (21).
CAMSHAFT BEARINGS (Figure Ⅳ):
Camshaft is supported by one-piece bearings (1) located on both sides of the injection cam. These
bearings rest against the underpart of the injection pump control body and are held by studs (7) which
hold also the injection pump. Two centering rings (5) position the bearings on the control body. The
bearings are fitted with thin wall half-bearings (2 and 3) fixed by a stop screw (24).
An additional bearing supports the shaft on the timing gear end for bank B (Figure Ⅷ) and the opposite
side for bank A(Figure Ⅸ).
A thrust bearing (for non-reversible engines),(Figure Ⅹ), or a swivel joint (for reversible engines) holds
the shaft longitudinally.

LUBRICATION OF THE VALVE AND INJECTION PUMP CONTROL MECHANISMS:

Lubrication is through a duct drilled in the casings and fed from one end of each engine bank. The
casings are connected together by tubes held in position by spring rings.

The camshaft bearings are fed through a tie bolt clearance hole (Figure Ⅳ).
Drillings in the housing distribute oil to the valve and injection pump tappets.

CAMSHAFT CASING COVER (Figure Ⅴ):


The camshafts are positioned laterally into their casings which are integral with the frame. The casing
is closed by covers (1-2-3-4) fixed to the frame and connected together by plates (5) set inside the
casing.
An inspection door (22) faces the cam of each cylinder.
On each bank two doors are equipped with an explosion relief valve.

OPERATIONS
-Rotate engine by means of the turning gear.
-Make a visual inspection of each cam and cam follower.
CAM FOLLOWER
-Make sure that each roller rotates freely.
-Examine roller race and edges (particularly in the case of reversible engines.).
-Normal appear is a bright surface over the whole width of the roller which is in contact with the cam.
If the roller is not bearing correctly against the cam overhaul the complete tappet gear (roller, pin,
tappet and key).
-Bright surfaces on the edges of intake、exhaust and injection tappet rollers of reversible engines are
due to the translation movement when reversing. However, this is permissible.
-if the tappet roller shows pitting, spalling or seizure traces on the traces on the roller race or edges it
should be replaced.

CAM
-Check the condition of races as for tappet rollers.
Slight pitting located normal to the blending radius with the tappet roller race is permissible.
Certain areas of the roller race may appear brighter than others because of the heavy pressure of the
roller on the cam.
-If the cam shows any signs of pitting, spalling, seizing or recessing on the roller race, it should be
replaced (see E025.05.06).
-Feel that there zones have no trace of recessing.
-In the case of reversible engines, make a visual and tactile inspection of the race blending slopes of
intake, exhaust and injection cams.

1. DESCRIPTION
TIMING GEARING (Figure 1)
Timing gear is locating in the output of the engine, transforms the rotation from crankshaft to camshaft
with the drive ratio 1/2, and makes the crankshaft and the camshaft running on the spur time.
The primary herringbone gear (2) is centered on the crankshaft. This gear may be a single- piece or
2-piece unit. It meshes with intermediate gears (4) which rotate freely on their stationary shaft (8).
These intermediate gears have an inserted hub (7) in which is hobbed the pinion driving elastic gears
(25), mounted on the timing shafts.
These elastic gears consist of a hub (23) keyed on the timing shaft, and a straight-tooth rim gear (25).
The rim gear is centered on the hub by means of 8 copper-lead plates (24).
The elements are linked by annular springs housed in seats machined in the two parts.
The unit’s axial immobilization is provided by half-plates (26).
TURNING GEAR (Figure Ⅲ and Ⅳ ).
The turning gear consists of a ring gear (Ⅳ-22), integral either with a disk or with a vibration damper,
mounted at the crankshaft end opposite the timing gear, and a train of pinions terminated by a square
shaft end.
This square may be driven by a reduction gear with tangent gear (Ⅱ-203) and worm (Ⅱ-345), itself
driven by an electric motor (Ⅱ-226).
It may also be driven by any other device fitted with a 35 mm square female receptacle:
Socked wrench.
Hand drill and tooling, item C.
The pinion train is mounted in a casing (Figure Ⅲ).
The pinion (Ⅳ-24) driving gear wheel (Ⅳ-22) may be declutched.
Introduction of the sliding-gear operating wrench (Ⅳ-48) disables the engine starting air control.

Optionally, the control system may be fitted with a unit (see Figure Ⅳ) which prevents insertion of the
operating wrench when the motor is in operation.
Cylinder TDC markings are engraved on ring gear (Ⅳ-22) opposite a pointer.

SPECLAL TOOL
Not applicable.
LIST OF SEALS AND EXPENDIBLE MATERIALS
Not applicable.
The check of timing gear condition recommended in the operating guide (C 00-652-6.8.3) during
monthly inspection will result in rapid detection of any abnormal situation. Such abnormal
situations are often the result of abnormal torsional vibration of the shaft line, caused by:
-Shaft-line design error. In this case, abnormal conditions appear during the first several
thousand hours following commissioning of the engine.
-Damage to the elastic coupling.
-Damage to the torsional vibration damper.
-Abnormal combustion in one or more cylinders,
Etc…
During monthly inspection tours, visual access to gearing is obtained by removal of the inspection
hatches installed on the gear casing.
Visual inspection is made of:
1) Gear tooth flanks, for any sign of impact or excessive pressure.
2) Bottom lands, for any sign of fatigue.
Normal appearance.
Due to torsional vibration, it is normal to encounter signs of contact on both tooth flancs, even if the
engine is not reversible.
WEAR
A polished appearance of tooth flancs is the sign of normal wear. Rapid polishing, particularly, is
normal and indicates a running-in of mating profiles. Subsequent uniform tooth wear remaining within
the limits indicated by the wear table is not dangerous, but may lead to increased noise.
Wear should appear over the entire width of the tooth.

LIST OF SEALS AND EXPENDIBLE MATERIALS
PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS
Remove timing-gear side casings (E 025.06.02).
OPERATIONS
The backlash values indicated in the table are measured perpendicularly to the tooth flancs (see
Figure1).
In practice, there are a number of methods of measurement of gear backlash:
-Dial gauge.
-Lead foil.
-Thickness gauge.
These methods do not yield identical results, due to bearing play, and interpretation of measurements
may be inconclusive because it is not always known which element of backlash has been taken up or
which gear is the driving unit within a gear train.
Backlash measurement by crushing of a strip of lead due to its simplicity, reproducibility and ease of
interpretation.
It is important that measurements always be carried out under identical conditions:
-Direction of rotation (use the engine’s normal direction of rotation, if reversible, the direction
corresponding to forward travel).
-Lead foil dimensions.
-The gear train should be complete.
To ensure that measurements are comparable and take various reactions into tappets against cams),
the engine must be placed in an identical position prior to each measurement. The simplest approach
is to place the engine at cylinder 1 TDC.
Lead-foil backlash measurement method for spur gears.

-Use a sheet of lead, thickness 0.5 mm, width 100mm, length 140 mm (Figure 2).
-Turn the engine until the sheet has passed between the mating gears, taking the following
precautions:
·Gear rotation must be at a uniform speed while the lead sheet is passing between the gear teeth.
·Any irregular motion or interruption in lead-sheet travel voids the operation, as the crushing effect is
thereby increased.
-Recover the crushed lead sheet and saw it in two, making a clean cut (Figure 3).
-Measure the minimum thickness of the sheet at the two crushed sides of the U.

Tooth backlash is equal to the sum (A1+A2) of these two thickness (Figure 4).
-Repeat this measurement four times for each pair of mating gears (at 90°intervals on large gears)
and average the measured values.
-If limit backlash values ‘LA’ are exceeded, proceed to replace the faulty gear trains.

Lead-foil measurement method for herringbone gears.


-Place a sheet of lead on both parts of the toothing.
-Measure the minimum thickness of the 4 crushed sides, divide the sum of the measured values by
two to obtain the value of backlash.
-Repeat this measurement four times for each pair of mating gears (at 90°intervals on large gears)
and average the measured values.
-If limit backlash values ‘LA’ are exceeded, proceed to replace the faulty gear trains.
NOTE:
If lead sheet is not available, backlash can be measured using a diameter 2 mm lead wire (see a
Figure 5).

1. -- DESCRIPTION
The engine is started by supplying compressed air at 30 bar pressure into the cylinders.
The main valve controls the air inlet to the starting valves located in the cylinder heads.
An offtake conveys air to the distributor fitted at the end of the camshaft. This distributor controls the
opening of each of the air starting valves during the piston power stroke.

MAIN STARTING VALVE (Figure Ⅰ).


The main starting valve is accomplished by a pneumatic control (12~30kg/cm2) or manual control
operation.

The main starting valve consists of a steel body (1) with a bronze liner (4), a valve seat (5), a valve (14),
a spring (15) and an air leakage plant on the top.
The valve opens under the effect of the pressure difference on the two faces when the space is rapidly
emptied on the spring side.

When the valve (210) is closed this space communicates with the air intake by means of a hole bored
in the valve.

MAIN STARTING VALVE WITH IN-BUILT PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE (Figure Ⅱ).

The pressure reducing valve allows starting the engine with a maxi 70 bar compressed air from the
plant.
The air pressure is reduced to 30 bar downstream the main starting valve by acting on cover (Ⅱ-41)
which thus calibrate spring (Ⅱ-15) to obtain the pressure reduction.

The starting valve mechanism remains unchanged and is housed in a steel body together with the
pressure reducing valve.

STARTING AIR DISTRIBUTOR (Figure Ⅲ)

The starting air distributor fitted on the frame consists of a disk (32) mounted on a spindle, which is
driven by the camshaft. Compressed air pushes this disk onto the finely ground surface of the body
thus forming a seal.
The disk is drilled with a hole through which compressed air can travel to the corresponding starting
valves according to the position of the inlet holes drilled in the body.

392
CHAPTER 7
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. STARTING
NO. E025.07.00-2

The disk can be set for right hand or left hand rotation of the engine. In the case of a reversible engine
the longitudinal movement of the crankshaft alters the rotation of the disk so that the engine can be
started in either direction.

An oilier is fitted up stream the distributor the filling of which must be made when the oil level is only 30
mm in the bowl (range: 450 startings) (see operating instructions).
In order to protect the distributor, a filter is fitted before it.

NOTES ON MAINTENANCE OF STARTING SYSTEM.


The compressed air starting system may be considered as a safety device; it is necessary to maintain
it in good working order to ensure that the engine will never fail to start. For certain marine application
the starting mechanism is an essential component for the maneuverings of the vessel.
Most faults and failures of the starting system are caused by the presence of humidity in the air used.
Methods of water removal are provided in the installation; make a regular check to ensure that they
operate correctly.
If the filter on the input side of the air distributor is clogged, this is a sign that the water removal
apparatus is not functioning correctly.
To prevent any injuries during dismantling operations, keep the engine air inlet valve closed whenever
work is in progress.

1 — DESCRIPTION
PC2-5 engines are supercharged by turbochargers, driven by engine exhaust gasses. Supercharging
air is cooled between the supercharging compressor outlet and engine air inlet.
The turbocharger types used on PC2-5 engines are indicated in the table (figureⅠ). They are mounted
at the extremities of the engine, on the timing gear side or the opposite side, on a welded-steel mount
bolted to the engine frame.
The air cooler type used for 6PC2-5 is: KLZ205.
The two 12,14,16 and 18 cylinder engine banks are completely independent insofar as their
turbocharging is concerned.
It is therefore possible to operate with one bank normally turbocharged and the other employing
natural air intake, permitting maximum power to be developed in case of damage to a turbocharger.
EXHAUST MANIFOLD
Exhaust manifold is mounting between the outlet cylinder and the turbocharger, and you have to select
the connection method in order to achieve an optimum conditions both theoretically and practically.
Exhaust manifolds are made of steel. Expansion joints (Ⅳ-6) are installed between manifold sections,
and between sections and diffusers. They are fastened by means of stainless steel, strap-type tapered
clamps.
Manifold sections and diffusers have an integral insulating lagging for protection, furthermore, in order
to prevent air leakage.
INTAKE MANIFOLD (figure Ⅵ)
The engine is fitted with one intake manifold per cylinder bank, installed laterally above the timing shaft
on the outside of the V.
Each manifold consists of cylindrical, cast aluminum alloy sections in lengths equal to cylinder spacing

414
CHAPTER 8
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. TURBOCHARGING M.P.C
No. E025.08.00-2

Each manifold has a sleeve with fastening flange and gasket for mounting on the head. O-ring seals
(Ⅵ-314), clamped by a strap, provide leak proof joints between sections.
At each of its ends, the manifold is connected to the air cooler, mounted on the turbocharger discharge,
by means of a sleeve which can be equipped with an air dryer.
This air dryer intercepts condensation water droplets on fins situated in the airflow. Water collected in
the bottom of the sleeve is drained to the outside by means of an automatic bleed valve.
The other end of the manifold is blocked by a cast aluminum alloy cover (Ⅵ-46), or (for sheet metal
intake manifolds) a sheet metal end cover.

For operations on turbochargers and air coolers, refer to the corresponding manuals.
(1) Under specific pressure and temperature conditions, expansion joints can undergo a limited
number of cycles only. After a number of star-stop cycles, therefore, expansion-joint rupture is
inevitable.

415
CHAPTER 8
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. TURBOCHARGING M.P.C
No. E025.08.00-3

The operating time elapsing before rupture depends on engine operating conditions, and especially the
number of engine stops per thousand operating hours. Regardless of installation type, systematic
replacement of expansion joints every 24000 hours is recommended. In the case of installations
operating with frequent stops (1 to 2 daily), certain expansion joints might require more frequent
replacement.

NOTE NO JOINTS SUBJECTED TO HIGH TEMPERATURES


The bolts of joints raised to high temperatures tend to creep. The result is a loss of tightness noticeable
after a certain operating period. As the assembly has been designed to prevent gas leakage in spite of
this loss of tightness, it is not necessary to perform any leak tightening.
On the other hand, the low screw tension resulting form this loss of tightness might lead to complete
loosening of nuts due to vibration is these nuts are not locked. To avoid accidents of this kind, the
following steps should be taken:
— Screws and studs are in creep-resistant refractory steel construction. They must be procured from
the engine manufacturer. As a distinguishing feature, screws and studs normally used for
high-temperature applications have collars or flanges (Figure 1).
— Nuts must be carbon steel types. They are extra-long, projecting beyond the screw end, in order to
facilitate removal.
— Adhesion between the screw and nut materials under high-temperature conditions is adequate to
lock them together. High-temperature grease must not be applied, as it will eliminate this adhesive
effect and may lead to total loosening of nuts.
— If a high-temperature grease is used, the nut must be locked to the screw with a weld spot.
If difficulties are encountered in unscrewing nuts during disassembly, the screws should be cut.

I. – General
The control system perform the following functions:
- Engine starting.
- Load regulating.
- Load distribution between multiple engines operating in parallel.
- Reversal of rotary direction in the case of reversible engine.
- Motor shutdown.
In normal operation, commands are remotely controlled from a control station (refer to the notice
concerning the remote control system). Manual controls are provided for standby operation.
The governor acts on the regulating linkage, establishing a fuel rate (quantity of fuel injected in each
cycle) – speed ratio, i.e., a torque – speed ratio. This ratio may be varied by acting on the speed and
offset setpoint adjustment.
Governor mechanisms shut down the engine in case of overspeed.
Other safety systems automatically bring the engine to idling speed under certain circumstances.
II. Speed regulation
1. Governor
A “Woodward” governor is used. It may be installed on the right-hand or left-hand side of the engine on
the timing-gear side.
For a description of this governor, its operation, adjustment and maintenance, refer to manufacturer’s
notice:
- Speed governor with booster.
Speed setpoint control is provided pneumatically, by the action of variable air pressure.
2. Governor and tachometer control (Figure X IV)
This control consists of a shaft(16) driving the governor gearshaft(25) by means of a 90°bevel gear. A
tachogenerator is driven by the governor gearshaft (25).
The governor’s rotary speed is 1.867 times that of the engine.

433
CHAPTER 10
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. GOVERNING – CONTROLE – LINKAGE
No. E025.10.00-2

3. Linkage (Figure IV)


The governor controls the injection pumps by means of linkages.
The transverse shaft-governor connection is provided by an elastic link which enables the linkages to
be moved to the ‘stop’ position regardless of governor action, either by means of the hand ‘stop’ lever
or by one of the cylinders in the auxiliary speed regulation apparatus.
The injection pump racks are driven by interconnected link rods (1).
In case of blocking of a pump rack, an elastic link system permits setting of the other pump racks to the
minimum position. The linkages of each cylinder bank are placed under continuous tension toward the
O-flow position by two return springs mounted between the two final pumps of the individual cylinder
bank.
III. Overspeed stop mechanisms
An electronic overspeed limiter is available over the control-station and the tachogenerator sends
signals to it. The safety shutdown system stops the engine in case of an engine rotary speed of 598±8
rpm.

IV. Auxiliary control apparatus


1. Overspeed-trip stop is performed by an electronic overspeed-trip stop.
2. Auxiliary starting and stopping apparatus (Figure X VII)
This system consists of two cylinders – one hydraulic, the other air-operated – acting upon the
governing linkages downstream form the elastic link between the governor and the linkages to cancel
or correct governor action.
1) Auxiliary starting and stop apparatus
It is controlled by the control-station or the level beside the engine. It is also possible to be controlled
by the safety-system circuits (thermal switches, pressure switches). This system consists of a cylinder
(controlled by the control air from the fuel supply limiter) and a piston (5), forming a double-acting
cylinder. The piston rod contains an orifice in which a shaft fastened to a connecting rod of the
injection-pump control linkage is allowed to slide freely. A screw (49) and nut (50) at the end of this
orifice limits shaft travel.
When the control-station lever is set to ‘start’, air is sent to the rod side of the piston, and the screw (49)
pushes the injection-pump control linkage to a position corresponding to the fuel flow required for
correct engine starting.
The other piston face, driven by safety circuit air, pushes the injection-pump linkage toward the ‘zero
flow’ position. In normal operation, both spaces are empty and the piston is free.

435
CHAPTER 10
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. GOVERNING – CONTROLE – LINKAGE
No. E025.10.00-4

2) Fuel-limiting and overspeed-trip stop cylinder


This system is generally installed only on non-declutching marine engines. This is a system installed
on the control linkage to limit fuel injection. The servo-system is capable of limiting injection regardless
of the position of the governor lever thanks to the flexible link controlling lever.
When the regulating air enters via the entrance, the piston (407) moves to the left until it has reached a
balance with springs (413, 414). Meanwhile, slide valve (15) also moves to the left. The hole on the
sleeve (14) is opened and the lubrication oil runs out. The servo piston (12), under the action of spring
(13), moves to the left, until the hole on the sleeve (14) is closed.

When the regulating air pressure decreases, piston (407) moves to the right, under the action of
springs (413, 414). The servo slide valve (15) is caused to move to the right and the hole on the sleeve
(14) is opened. The pressure oil enters the servo oil cylinder and the servo piston (12) is pushed to the
right. The position of the servo piston (12) always corresponds to that of the servo slide valve (15).
The sleeve (14) passes through the central partition (11). The extension of the sleeve, which crosses
the central partition, forms a pushrod which abuts the second piston (10). The end of this piston,
holding an adjustable end fitting (25) with nut (40), passes through the cover (303) and butts against
the injection control linkage, driving it toward shutoff or limiting its travel, depending on the position of
piston (12) pushing piston (10).

V. Engine control system (Fig. XV)


Engines are controlled by an air-operated or electric-air remote control system. This section deals only
with the air-operated portion, installed immediately in front of the engine. Refer to the notice on the
remote control system.
The entire control air circuit is fed with compressed air at 12-30 bar.
Engine reversal
With the engine rotating in a given direction, reversal takes place as follows:
- Setting of speed-regulating linkages to stop.
- Camshaft shift.
- Reducing speed (or compressed air braking)
- Restart in the reverse direction of rotation.
Speed-regulating linkages are placed in the stop position by a:
- Safety stop.
- Logic stop.
- Stop prior to starting.
Declutching engine
Test of engine readiness for forward or reverse operation.
- Camshaft blocked in position matching selected rotary direction:
Yes: - starting is enabled.

437
CHAPTER 10
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. GOVERNING – CONTROLE – LINKAGE
No. E025.10.00-6

No. – starting is not enabled.


- Turning gear declutched.
Yes, - starting is enabled and the starting fuel limiting cylinder is energized.
No, - starting is not enabled.
Starting
The starting control is unlocked by a logic stop command. See notice on remote control system.
Starting takes place by:
- Issue of a speed setpoint to the governor.
- Performance of the test for motor readiness in the selected rotary direction.
- Transmission of a start command which admits air into the engine-starting air intake valve opening
control system. Air is then admitted to the cylinders by the 30 bar compressed-air starting circuit.
Braking
- Compressed air braking
The control system permits compressed air feed to the starting circuit while the engine is not rotating in
the direction matching the positions of the camshaft. This results in a braking effect on the engine and
shaft line. This effect is detectable only above a certain speed which depends upon the starting system
installed on the engine.

MECHANICAL OVERSPEED CHECK (Once weekly)


SPECIAL TOOLS
Not applicable
SEALS AND EXPENDIBLE MATERIALS
Not applicable

The test of the electronic overspeed stop system includes a check of the stop mechanism for correct
operation and a check of the trip speed.
These systems are equipped with a test circuit which enables testing to be performed at one-half of the
actual trip speed (see manufacturer’s notice). The test is performed with engine running.
Overspeed test
- Using the ‘test’ pushbutton, place the system in the test position.
Tripping should take place within the following speed ranges, depending on the nominal speed:

Nominal speed (rpm) 500 514 520


Trip range (test), rpm 280/287 287/295 291/299
Trip adjustment range (rpm) 560/575 575/590 582/592

The indicator lam adjacent to the test pushbutton should light if the system is operating correctly.
To prevent engine shutdown, action of the overspeed relay contact and the self-energization of this
relay are inhibited by other contacts in the ‘test’ pushbutton.
In case o fault, seek out the operating malfunction.

1) Adjustment of pumps A1 and B1
- With lever (1-1) not mounted on the governor shaft, place lever (1-2) in the vertical position (median
position). With the linkage in this position, and using the stops, adjust the pump racks to division
26 from shut-off (or zero injection).
- Return the linkage to division 6 behind pump shutoff (travel 26+6=32 toward zero flow).
- Rotate the governor shaft to the minimum fuel stops (servomotor stop in its cylinder), then install
and lock bush (1-5) and adjustable lever (1-1) on the governor shaft. Set the inside link rod (1-6) to
theoretical position R = 93 mm for a PG40L governor, or R = 118 mm for a PG58 governor, relative
to the governor shaft.
- Check that total travel (37°43′for UG40L or 29°31′for PG58) on the governor results in a 65
mm linkage travel, if not, act on adjustable lever (1-1) by changing radius R.
- Ascertain that the stop of the auxiliary regulating components permit full linkage travel (65 mm) in
the median or retracted positions of these components.
- Install braking elements (1-225), (1-422), (1-423) and (1-421).

1. DESCRIPTION
LUBRICATING OIL CIRCUIT (dry sump operation).
The engine lubricating oil is contained in a duty tank situated at a level beneath the oil sump.
This tank is divided into two compartments, one for return oil, the other for purified oil. The tank is
gravity-fed from the sump.
The oil sump may be an engine-coupled pump or an independent electric motor-operated pump. In
both cases, the circuit includes an independent prelubricating and standby pump.
The oil pump discharges via the oil cooler and filters to the main engine distribution manifold. This
manifold is situated in the camshaft housing, above the inspection opening.
The pressure regulating valve is shunt-connected between the oil cooler and filter. This valve
discharges excess flow directly into the duty oil tank (purified oil compartment).
From the distribution manifold, oil is sent to each main bearing and enters the crankshaft. It flows
into the crankpins, past the bearing insets and, passing through a longitudinal piston-rod drillhole,
lubricates the small ends and wristpins, passes into the piston cooling chambers and drops back
into the sump.
An external branch of the main manifold on the biming-gear side provides parallel feed to the
intermediate timing-gear shafts, gear spray nozzles, external crankshaft bearings,
speed-regulating system control, camshaft bearings and end supports, hydraulic
direction-reversing system and auxiliary speed-regulating system.
Two branch circuits feed the camshaft lubricating manifolds, bearings, injection-pump push-rods
and coolers and valves.
The ‘BROWN-BOVER1’ turbochargers have an independent lubricating system.

ROCKER-ARM LUBRICATING OIL CIRCUIT


Rocker arms are lubricated by an independent module feeding a manifold on each cylinder head,
with a second manifold returning oil to the tank.

COOLING WATER CIRCUIT.


Engines are cooled by a closed-circuit fresh water system for all installations. Water inlets for
individual cylinders are situated in the camshaft housing. Water circulates between the jacket and
cylinder liner, then through the head and outlet manifold.

455
CHAPTER 10
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. ON-ENGINE CIRCUITS-PUMPS
No. E025.11.00-2

Exhaust valves are cooled by a branch circuit in the head. A circulation type places each valve in
communication with the water jacket.
Individual circuits are degassed:
a) Between jacket and liner, by a drillhole in the block-head centering stud.
b) Between head and outlet manifold, by a pipe-line capping the high point of the head.
Turbocharger bodies are cooled by a branch circuit, tapping the end of the engine water inlet
manifold.
The engine and turbocharger water outlets are brought together and pass through a heat
exchanger fed with raw water.
The water circulating through the air and oil coolers belongs to an independent circuit at a
temperature lower than that of the imagined circuit. It may be tapped from the ‘raw water-fresh
water’ heat exchanger circuit, or directly from the raw water supply (which may be sea-water).

INJECTOR COOLING CIRCUIT.

Injectors are cooled by an independent module feeding a manifold on each block. A second parallel
manifold joins the individual water outlets, fitted with flow monitoring indicators. These indicators
should be cleaned when visibility is impaired.
In the case of installations running on heavy fuel oil, this water circuit is also used for injector
heating prior to engine starting.

FUEL CIRCUIT.
Fuel is delivered from the auxiliary tanks to the injection-pump feed manifolds by a gear pump
coupled to the engine, or an electric pump discharging through a double or automatic filter.
The feed manifolds are mounted above the camshaft housings, and include as many branches as
there are injection pumps.
A bleed valve is provided for bleeding during filling. A second ‘discharge manifold’ is installed
parallel to the feed manifold, and also includes one branch per pump. This manifold returns fuel to
the auxiliary tanks.
The feed and return systems of each injection pump are in constant communication via a pump
body chamber.
Fuel feed pressure is adjusted by a diaphragm and valve parallel with the discharge manifold
outlet.
Two other filters with 20 to 40 micron filtration are installed at the inlets of the two feed manifolds.

456
CHAPTER 10
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. ON-ENGINE CIRCUITS-PUMPS
No. E025.11.00-3

- Engines up to 12 cylinders are fitted with a ‘S.E.M.T.’ gear pump. For engines of 14 and more
cylinders, a ‘LEISTRIZ’ type LB 16-40 screw pump is installed.
- It should be noted that, during installation of this circuit on an engine, connections to the feed and
return manifolds should be made in oppositions, i.e., fuel arriving from the filter should enter the
feed manifold at one end of the engine, and return to the auxiliary tanks via the other end, so that
circulation is uniformly distributed among all injection pumps. For marine installations, moreover,
the vessel’s trim shall be taken into account insofar as possible, with the fuel inlet connected at the
rear of the engine, at the low point of the feed manifold.
In the case of installations running on heavy fuel oil, a steam circuit is installed adjacent to the feed
and discharge manifolds to heat the fuel and bring it to the desired viscosity.
For these installations, refer to the section on heavy fuel oils in the operating guide.

COMPRESSED-AIR CIRCUIT (Pressure 30 to 12 bar).


This circuit includes:
- Starting power circuit.
a) A pipeline passing through a filter and an oilier and terminating at the rotary control valve.
b) Piping between the control valve and the starting valves, mounted on the heads.
- Control piping (see chapter 10).
This compressed-air piping connects:
The turning-gear safety unit to the bleed valve mounted on the main starting valve.
The turning-gear safety unit to the rotary direction detector (left-hand or right-hand).
- Direction-reversing piping (see chapters 9 and 10)
This double auxiliary piping (air at 30-12 bar) connects the distributing valve to the two air-oil
direction-reversing control cumulators.
This distributor valve is mounted on the cover of the direction-reversing unit.

1. DESCRIPTION
‘Pielstick’ torsional vibration damper (Figure 1):
The damper is mounted on the crankshaft disk on the side opposite the coupling. The damper is
mounted by means of bolts (3-4) positioned and held in place by cotter pins.
The damper consists of a primary hub (1) on which the secondary ring (14) is centered by means
of copper-lead pins crimped in the hub. Parts are held together in rotation by resilient studs formed
by circular-leaf springs (11) and keys (12).
The assembly is held together by flanges (15) fastened to the secondary ring by screws (18). Oil
feed is provided by a calibrated orifice in plug (29) mounted at the crankshaft end. Oil is channeled
to the resilient studs by means of radial drillholes.
‘Geislinger’ resilient coupling (see manufacturer manual)
Special external stop (Figure V):
For certain (particular land-based) installations, it is necessary to install a special external stop in
order to take up high axial loading.
The special external stop is installed on the distribution side between the crankshaft disk and the
driven-machine disk.
Oil feed is provided from both sides of the stop by means of an exterior piping connected to the
external bearing oil supply.
In this case, the external bearing is mounted with special, increased-clearance bearing shells.

BEARING SHELLS VISUAL INSPECTION

General points
The bearing shells on S.E.M.T. – Pielstick engines have undergone precision machining and no
additional repairing is necessary, especially on the thrust flange, bearing layer and the shell mating
surfaces, which may lead to damages.
2. 1 Stripes
Deep stripes, less than 10 mm away from the border of bearing shell, are allowed.
For other areas, the following stipulations apply:
- Not more than two stripes, with smooth edges and showing the bronze-lead layer (2 stripes spaced
less than 2 mm apart represent 1 stripe), are allowed.
- Some thin stripes even those that are close together, not exceeding the depth of the bearing layer,
are allowed.

Wear of bearing layer (white layer)


- Replace the bearing shells of the shafting, as soon as the babbit metal (white or cupro-lead metal)
appears on one third of the bearing shell surface.
- Replace the connecting rod shells, as soon as the babbit metal (white or cupro-lead metal appears.
Note: Defects indicated in 2.1 and 2.2 are allowed existing concurrently.
For the bearing shell with light defects, discard it only if they are the same as those indicated in 2.1 and
2.2
3.1 Foreign matters
3.1.1 On the side of bearing side: A single particle surrounded by luminous ring or a cluster of
particles which look dark. Remove the single particle, if necessary.
Discard the bearing if the area with slightly rough shadows exceeds one third of the shell surface.
3.1.2 On the back of the shell, foreign matters may cause bright zones due to friction.
3.2 Corrosion
Corrosions occur frequently with certain limits of babbit layer, especially in the none-load areas, where
the oil pressure may be a negative value in a cycle.
There won’t any danger if the corroded surface isn’t away from one third of the half-shell’s width and is
within 60°.
3. 3 Insufficient mounting pressure
The diameter at section of the non-stretched bearing shells is higher than the diameter of the bore
designed for their engagement, which compels to stretch them so as to place them. A bearing shell that
has already been used shall need a least mounting effort than when it was new, however, no effort
requirements at all would be abnormal.
Should this occur, the bearing shell will have to be discarded.
Preparation before mounting
- Check the crankshaft journal condition and oil it.

TECHNICAL NOT ON THE VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE GEAR WHEELS

GENERAL POINTS
The visual inspections, recommended in the maintenance schedule, allow preventing possible failure.
An error in diagnostic might lead t a serious damage. Any abnormal aspect hereafter non-mentioned
shall be thoroughly examined by a specialist.

STANDARD CRITERIA
2. 1 Wear
Polished surface are the signs of a normal wear. A quick wear due to a high load or to an intensive use
is not destructive but may result in an increase in noise. See limits of the teeth clearance ‘LA’ and ‘LR’
given in the maintenance book.
2.2 Pitting
The small cavities (circumscribed diameter under 1 mm) appearing on the face of the teeth result from
the strains borne by the surface of the teeth and its under layer. They are not dangerous as long as
they do not develop in quantity or in diameter (scaling).

DISCARDING CRITERIA
3.1 Casual breaks
Before changing the gear, the reason shall be searched and all steps taken in order to avoid the
renewal of these incidents which may originate form:
- long overspeed running or sudden stop.
- foreign matters of sizes superior to the teeth clearance that have passed into the gears.
Check whether this break has not entailed a beginning of rupture on one of the other pinions of the
gear train.
3.2 Cracks
When dismantling the pinions as planned in the maintenance schedule, perform a dye penetration test
of the whole toothing and change the pinions showing a beginning of rupture.
Check the teeth clearance with flattened lead wires:
- Use smeltable lead wire, with a diameter at least twice of that indicated in the maintenance
manual.
- Measure the thickness of the flattened section, with a micrometer caliper or a vernier caliper. This
value shall be the teeth clearance of the pinions.
Note:
A lead wire of sufficient length shall be used, which can be held in a hand and therefore
won’t fall into the crankshaft box.

TECHNICAL NOTS ON THE REPLACEMENT OF BALL BEARINGS


1. GENERALS POINTS
- The ball bearings will be systematically changed at the times indicated in the maintenance
schedule.
- New bearings will only be removed from their packing at the time of their mounting, and they will,
during handling, be kept in perfect condition of cleanliness. It is useless to remove the rust
preventing agent with which they are coated. However, if a ball bearing happens to be soiled, it will
be cleaned with white spirit or petrol and immediately coated with grease or engine lube-oil.
2.DISMANTING
Since ball bearings are systematically discarded, no particular measures of precaution will be taken for
their dismantling. However, in order to avoid to damage the other parts, in order to avoid to damage the
other parts, extractors or presses will be used at the maximum and will bear, as much as possible, on
the ring to be dismantled or on a fitting element itself bearing on it.
For bearings of small dimensions, a few sledge blows may be applied on the corresponding ring
through a bronze jet taking care to distribute them evenly around the periphery.
3. REFITTING
The elements of the lifting should be cleaned and deburred. The dimensions should also be checked
as well as the forms of the bearing faces of the shafts and housings. The operating will be correct only
if the prescribed adjustments are respected.
Directly blowing the ball bearing is forbidden.
The stress in fitting should in no case be transmitted by rolling elements.
The adjusting surfaces will be lightly oiled.
3.1 Ball bearings with cylindrical bore
Usually, fit first the ring which is the most tightly adjusted.
Ball bearings of small dimensions and slight tightening may be pressed on by small sledge blows
applied through a round or a soft steel tube all around the ring to avoid that the ball bearing be
engaged askew. The use of bushes makes it possible to exert a well centered fitting stress. One can
also use a mechanical or hydraulical press.
When a non-separable bearing has to be placed simultaneously on the shaft in the housing, it is
advised to place, between the blowing bush and the bearing a washer which distributes the fitting
stress on both rings. This system is also used to avoid the tilt, during fitting, of the outer bush of a
spherical roller bearing and its jamming in the housing.

471
PC-5 ENGINES
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTAINANCE MANUAL No. 2
ATTACTCHMENT 3

The same result may be obtained by means of a blow bush showing two bearing surfaces placed on
the same plan resting on the two bearing rings.
The rings of a separable bearing may be placed independently from each other, which is particularly
interesting when they must be both fitted with a tight adjustment. However, some measures of
precaution have to be taken so that no relative tilt of the two rings entails. At the time of final
assembling, the damaging of the ball races.
The fitting of large bearings in cold condition would entail high stresses. For that reason, their
positioning is usually done after heating some elements of the assembly (the bearing itself or its inner
ring if it can be separate, hub).
The difference of temperature necessary between ring and receiving part depends upon the
adjustment and the size of the bearing. The bearings should not be heated beyond 120℃, for it would
entail a decrease in hardness. Overheating them locally should also be avoided.
The bearings may be heated in an oil bath or in a stove. If a heating plate is used, it is indispensable to
alternatively present one and the other face of the bearing in order to obtain a regular heating.
The bearings provided with flanges or gaskets, which are coated with grease, should not be mounted
hot.
3.2 Adjusting the clearance at the time of assembling
Bearings with one row of angular balls and bearings with one tow of tapered rollers are most often
fitted opposite each other depending on whether they are arranged in O or in X. They constitute a
special case since, for them, the clearance makes sense only after assembling.
The adjustment is based on the following principle: taking into account the temperature and the load
applied, the clearance during operation should be minimum in order to ensure the operation.
The result is that the bearings will be set with some clearance at the time of assembling if, during
operation, the dilatations are expected to entail a reduction in the initial. If on the contrary, these
dilatations correspond to an increase in clearance, the bearings will be set tightened. Remember that
for these types of bearings, there is an accurate ratio between radial clearance and axial clearance. It
is therefore sufficient to fix and check one of these two values, usually the axial clearance.
The adjustment is made, either by acting on a nut screwed on the shaft or in the housing, or by means
of calibrated washers.

472
PC-5 ENGINES
S.X.D.- S.E.M.T. MAINTAINANCE MANUAL No. 3
ATTACTCHMENT 3

The method of adjustment and the measuring process of the clearance or of the preliminary tightening
mostly depend on the number of adjustments to be done. As an example, the axial clearance may be
measured by means of a comparator.
In the case of tapered roller bearings. It is necessary to rotate the shaft or the housing by a few turns
when adjusting and before measuring in order that the rollers are properly in contact with the guiding
shoulders. Should this contact be not sufficient, the result of the measurements would be faulty.

TECHNICAL NOTE ON NITROGEN FITTING

This method will only be carried out at workshop or harbor (in case of marine engines) for assembling.
1. Use of liquid nitrogen
There aren’t any risks in using of liquid nitrogen and no complicated equipments are necessary.
However, the cooled part should not be handled. Gripping devices or insulating gloves should be used).
The part should be plunged in liquid nitrogen. At the beginning of the dipping, the boiling is moderate
then as the part temperature decreases the boiling becomes faster and we observe a large
recrudescence is equal to the liquid temperature (-198℃). At this time, the fitting is possible.
For simple assembling, the container used should have two jackets, between which glass fibers,
oebsto ropes, resin or sand is added for thermal insulation.
The formal assembling should be performed in a self-contained liquid nitrogen container with special
coating.
2. Nitrogen consumption
in normal conditions of use, provide for each kilogram of metal to be cooled down from +15℃ to -
196℃;
- 0.60 liter for steel,
- 0.96 liter for aluminum,
- 0.45 liter for bronze, copper and brass,

2. Fitting the inner rings


a) Cleaning
As well as for the part of the shaft that receives the ring, the degreasing of the inner ring housing is
necessary in order to suppress any mark of faulty substance and impurity on the surfaces supposed to
be in contract with the inner ring.
b) Lubrication
Proceed the same way as for the ring by moistening slightly the outer diameter of the inner ring and the
bore of the housing by means of a solution made of 10 of Teepol solution in clean water.
c) Fitting
The countersinking diameter is provided to allow, in principle, a fitting by hand. It is nevertheless
preferable to push by means of a tube resting on the peripherical cut for this purpose.

Moreover, such fouling may noticeably bother the catching of the pigment on the part to be treated.
The conscientious cleaning of the part or of the surface to be treated is therefore an integral part of the
process.
Rust, scale or other, may be removed as usual. The cleaning should, however, be followed by a
meticulous degreasing. For very fat parts, emulsion traps will be used. It is useful to perform the final
cleaning by brushing or meticulously cleaning with chlorothene. After complete evaporation of the later,
the surface of the part is ready for the next operation. In such a condition, the treatment of the part shall
be continued as quickly as possible and it will be protected from any new impurity (the sweat of the
hand may lead to the formation of stains).
2 Preparation of the adhesive coat
2.1 Preparation by immersion
Prepare the adhesive coat by means of the surface impregnating product TRAFul 7U/S SPEZIAL.
The tanks for the bath shall be made of plastic material (PVC). After having been cleaned and
degreased in accordance with the indication of paragraph1, the parts to be treated will be placed in a
bath.
The duration of impregnation in the bath depends upon the kind of material, as a rule, it lasts 15 to 20
minutes. Only highly alloyed steels require a duration of treatment longer by about 30 minutes. The
thickness of the completely formed adhesive coat is about 1 to 2 microns. The end of the treatment is
shown by the fact that there are no more bubbles on the surface of the part. After treatment the parts
will be rinsed with water and dried. Air blowing is recommended but the parts may be dried by means
of a fibreless cloth or a washing leather.
Note:
In order to accelerate the formation of the adhesive coat, it is recommended to heat the TRAFul7u/S
SpeZicaL impregnation bath at 70-90℃, particularly for highly alloyed steels.

2.2 Preparation of the parts that cannot be dipped

ATTACTCHMENT 7

If the parts to be treated cannot be dipped into a bath, proceed the following way:
- Clean the part in accordance with the recommendation of paragraph 1.
- Cover the surface to be treated with an absorbent cloth.
- Soak the cloth until it is saturated with solution. Regularly renew the operation during the duration
of the treatment (for about 30 minutes).
- Remove the cloth and rub the surface with a fibreless cloth or a washing leather until it is dry.
2.3 Efficiency of the storing solution
If the adhesive layer on the surface of the part is no longer homogeneous, it is necessary to replace the
solution (simultaneously there is a decrease in the coming out of gas bubbles). It is advised against
adding to the worn solution a new solution to regenerate it. The TRAFul 7u/s SpeZical solution shall be
preserved only in closed containers, stored safe from bad whether and at a temperature lower than 30
℃.
3. Applying of the TRAFul3u pigment
The properly so-called pigment (molybdene bisulfide) may be applied with a brush, a sprayer, by
friction or immersion.
In order to bind this pigment closely to the adhesive coat, the particles will be sufficiently close to each
other. The attractive power necessary to a suitable adherence decrease as the particles go away.
In order to obtain a proper fixation, just rub the molybdene bisulphide coat with a washing leather to fix
it. This permits, at the same time to remove the pigment excess and to fix very solidly the remaining
pigment.
The molybdene bisulphide thus obtained is characterized by a very low roughness and a great loading
capacity. It shows a grey-blueish color with a mat aspect.
While operating this coat is also extremely resistant under very high pressure. Due to the pressure,
some smoothing through rolling or polishing by pressure occurs, the lapped coat showing the aspect of
a polished mirror.
The “trafulees” coat may be further mechanically compressed through by smoothing or polishing by
pressure, without the sliding properties of the coat formed decreasing.
In order to protect the surface of the material, it is recommended to slightly grease the part after having
applied the pigment with TRAFulllu grease.
4. Applying a second treatment
In case of polishing of faulty parts, for example, the previously use treatment should be carried out.

TECHNICAL NOTE ON THE PAINTS


1. Preparation of the surface to be painted
- The surfaces will be degreased and eventually cleaned of the old unstuck or blistered paint.
- The painted surfaces contiguous to the areas to be repainted will be smoothed in order to obtain a
satisfactory adhesion.
- The rusted or carbonized surface will be brushed with a metallic brush (for the interior of frames, be
mindful that no metallic particles remains in the engine).
- To restore, protect the machined parts, sand the pieces, clean with caustic soda vapour.
2. Conditions of application on PC2-5 engines
1. Some parts on the engine shall be painted in order to prevent metallic corrosion and
achieve good appearance.
2. The surfaces to be painted, whichever their nature, are shot blasted (brushing, wheel
polishing…) if they show oxided parts.
However the surface to be painted of the parts protected by a metallical coating, steel
galvanized or electrozincked or that has been submitted to a chemical conversion
treatment will be simply degreased.
3. If the surfaces to be painted are not smooth, it is allowed to apply a layer of suitable putty.
When applying the next layer, if the original layer is damaged, the previous process should
be repeated for repairing, and then apply the next layer.
4. After the painted surfaces have been heat dried or air dried, they should be smooth, no
signs of dripping, cracks, blisters, wrinkles and other effects.
5. The various successive layers of paint should have reached the degree of dryness
“complete apparent” or “hard” before applying the next layer. Painted parts which haven’t
been dry aren’t allowed to be assembled. The last layer of the engine or engine set will be
delivered only after it has become completely dry.
6. The paints for external surfaces, internal surfaces and thermal-resistant paints should be
used for their own purposes. The colors for the surfaces shouldn’t be changed at random

2. General utilization of locking agents


In a general way, the engineer will re-assemble the same components dismantled by him. However, if
he has lost self-locked nuts or if it was impossible for him to purchase the same locking products, he
should use one of the other solutions proposed in the class of the dismounted components.
3. Special conditions for the utilization of hardening products
- When dismantling, it is necessary to heat the pieces to 200℃, to “SOFTEN” the hardening
products.
- In any case, if traces of hardened product remain in the threads after the dismantling suppress
them by brushing. Eventually, heat the components to 200℃.
- Before any dismantling, provide the degreasing of all pieces. For re-assembling, apply the product
immediately before fitting the components, or comply with the special prescription if any.
4. Use of sealing agents
- After application of the product the surfaces will be cleaned, then re-assembled. There is no
solvent for the “Loctite” and the “Araldite”: remove the product with a non-cutting tool so as not to
damage the contract faces.
- If the components have been assembled with PRC 1005 L, clean them with “Methylethylcetone”.
- If the pieces have been fitted with “Deroson” no precaution is necessary, one, can even refit the
piece with its joint if this one has not been cut while removing.
