Did you know that;
On spec fuel can still cause serious damage due to cat fines.
The first unmistakable signs of scuffing can often be seen a few days before serious damage, not just hours.
Bedding in does not always follow a standard pattern. The time can vary from a few hours up to several hundred hours which can greatly alter the manufacturers recommended feed rate requirements.
Optimal oil feed rates fluctuate due to trade, load, running hours and many other unknown factors. You could be wasting money or causing unnecessary wear by running your fleet on a fixed feed rate.
Real time main engine condition data now allows you to optimize the feed rate onboard without taking samples.
Increasing oil costs have meant that average vessel cost for cylinder oil is more than 4 Million Dollars!
Would you like real time data that;
Helps you reduce the cylinder oil feed rate to the optimal value - reducing cost and potential problems from liner lacquering or bore polishing due to over dosage of the cylinder oil.
Provides a fast response when a problem occurs – allowing you to ‘detect and repair’ before the problem becomes serious.
Picks up the ingress of fuel CAT fines in real-time allowing preventative measures to be taken before extreme wear of engine liners is realised. It also allows real-time plotting of cylinder liner bed-in, so action can be taken e.g. increase of lubricant, if problems occur.
Acts as an early warning system, alerting ships engineering staff to potential main engine damage or failure. This allows preventative maintenance during the ships passage to the next port, or even a route change. Real-time wear analysis improves maintenance scheduling.
Utilising ANALEXrs Total Ferrous Sensor technology the LinerSCAN package combines sophisticated reporting software with expert installation to provide you with all the Liner wear information you need.
