MAN B&W Diesel Checking

Check of Oil Injection:

1.
With stopped engine and normally when the
system has been disassembled:

1. Press the ESC + PRELUB.-button on the

HMI control panel, and check that all lubri-
cators are operating correctly by watching
the LEDs on the intermediate boxes for
each lubricator.

2. If the cylinder cover or the exhaust valve is

removed, check inside the liner that all lu-
bricating points are working properly.

Otherwise, remove the covers for scavenge

port inspection.

Turn the piston to BDC and check inside

the liner with a mirror and a powerful light
source that all lubrication points are work-
ing properly.

Checking MAN B&W Diesel

With running engine:

4.
3. Check that all lubricators are operating cor-
Inlet
rectly by watching the LEDs on the inter-
mediate boxes for each lubricator.

The LEDs give signal when oil is injected.

Check the pressure shocks from the injec-

tion of the lubricators on each lubricator
pipe by feeling with a hand.

If in doubt, disconnect the pipe at the cyl-

Check of Accumulators:

4. Measuring the nitrogen pre-pressure can

only be done with stopped engine and
5. pressure-free lubrication system.

Stop both oil pumps. Close the inlet valve

and open the equalizing valve on the re-
spective lubricator.

The nitrogen pressure in the inlet accumu-

lator (0.7 litre) can be checked without dis-
mounting the accumulator. For use of the
pressure setting tool, see Step 5.

5. To measure the nitrogen pressure in the

outlet accumulator (0.16 litre), the accumu-
M90302
0245C05

lator or the lubricator with accumulator

must be dismounted.
See Procedure 903-2.2.

For nitrogen pressure in the accumulators,

see Data.

6. Use of Pressure Setting Tool

Assemble the pressure setting tool as 7.

shown in Figure 5, and mount the reducing
valve on the nitrogen cylinder. If necessary,
use a threaded adaptor. A E D03

Mount a 0-60 bar pressure gauge on the
filling valve when the inlet accumulator (0.7 F
litre) is to be checked, and a 0-10 bar
pressure gauge when the outlet accumula-
tor (0.16 litre) is to be checked.

7. Before mounting the filling valve on the ac-
cumulator, check that the accumulator top
is clean.

M90302
0247C07
Mount the filling valve on the relevant accu-
mulator with the union nut. Check that
valves C and F are closed.

Loosen the plug screw in the accumulator

using a ½” square drive handle in socket E.

It is now possible to read the actual nitro-

gen pressure in the accumulator on the dial
gauge on the filling valve.

8. If the accumulator needs to be refilled with

nitrogen, open valve A and increase the
outlet pressure from valve C on spindle B
to 1-2 bar above the pressure stated in
Data.

Open valve C until the accumulator is filled

to the correct pressure.

Close valve C and tighten the plug screw

with socket E to the torque stated in Data.

Release the pressure in the filling valve at

bleed screw F.

Unscrew the filling valve from the accumu-

lator. Retighten the plug screw to the
torque stated in Data. Remount the accu-
mulator.

903-2.2 Cylinder Lubricators
Dismantling MAN B&W Diesel

Dismantling of lubricators:
1.
The engine must be stopped and blocked be-
fore dismounting a lubricator. Stop the cylinder
Inlet oil pump station.

1. Close the supply valve for the lubricator

and open the equalizing valve (turn both
handles to a horizontal position). Remove
the upper shield, if installed.

Disconnect the electrical plug on the side

of the lubricator.

2. Unscrew the six screws in the bottom of

the lubricator and disconnect the cover
with pertaining pipes.

3. Unscrew the four screws on the side that

secure the lubricator to the hydraulic block,
and remove the lubricator.

Special running

It is possible to change a lubricator while the

engine is running if a spare lubricator with O-
rings and the necessary tools is available. The
change should be done in a maximum of 15
minutes.

• Reduce the engine load to below 40%

of MCR
M90302
0249D02

• Let the lubricator pump station run

• Dismount the lubricator as described in

steps 1-3

• Mount a spare lubricator as described

in Procedure 903-2.4.

Note!
When the oil pressure is released, a ni-

trogen pre-pressure of 25-30 bar will re-
main in the accumulator.

Carefully unscrew the accumulator to re-

lease the remaining oil pressure in the sys-
tem. Remove the accumulator from the hy-
draulic block.
