10 Important Safety Drills and Training Procedures for Ship’s Engine Room

Engine Room Fire Drills: Accidents as a result of fire are the most common in the
ship’s engine room. Fire drills, which must include fire fighters from both deck and
engine sides, are to be carried out frequently to ensure that the ship’s crew to well
prepared for any such adverse condition. Fire drills must be performed at various
levels and machinery of engine room i.e. Boiler, Generator, Purifier, Main Engine
etc.
Engine Room Flooding Drill: A delayed action during engine room flooding can
lead to loss of important machinery such as generators, main engine etc., leading
to complete blackout of the ship. Engine room flooding response training and
immediate repair actions must be taught to engine crew. The flooding training
must include response actions to different emergency situations such as
grounding, collision etc. which can lead to structural damage and flooding of water
in the engine room.
Enclosed Space Drill: Engine room comprises of several tanks and confined spaces
which are unsafe to enter without preparation and permission. Enclosed space
training with risk assessment and dedicated checklists must be carried out for all
ship’s crew.

Scavenge Fire Drill: All engine room crew members must know engine scavenge
fire fighting procedure. The crew must know about the system that is to be
employed for scavenge fire fighting along with the precautions that are to be taken
before implementing particular method to the engine. (For e.g. if steam is used to
suppress the fire, the line should be drained before steam insertion as water in the
line may lead to thermal cracks of engine parts).
Crankcase Explosion Drill: Crankcase explosion in the ship’s engine can lead to fatal
situations and heavy loss of ship’s property. The crew should be prepared for
taking the right action when the engine’s oil mist detector gives an alarm.
Uptake Fire Drill: Engine crew to be well trained by frequent drills on how to fight
boiler uptake fire. Crew should be trained n various stages of uptake fire and
different procedures to fight these fires.
Oil Spill Drill: Oil carried on ship as a cargo or for use of ships machinery is handled
by engine crew. It is important to know the correct oil transfer procedure.
Bunker Training: Bunkering is one of the most critical operations, which always
involve risk of oil spill and fire. 24 hrs before every bunkering, all ship’s crew must
be called for meeting and complete bunkering operation should be discussed.
Crew to be trained for safety signals, oil spill reporting procedure.
Pollution Prevention Appliances Training: Port State Control (PSC) and other
governmental authorities are very strict when it comes to compliance with
pollution prevention norms. It is therefore important for the ship’s crew to know
all pollution preventive measures when at sea. This includes crew’s knowledge of
all the pollution prevention equipment present onboard (OWS, Incinerator,
Sewage Treatment Plant.
Blackout Training: Once the ship looses its power source i.e. the generator, the
ship’s fate depends on the forces of the sea and wind. Blackout condition leads to
dead ship and it’s the responsibility of the engine crew to bring back the ship’s
power so that it can sail again on its determined course. The blackout emergency
situation training must be given to all engine room crew members and must be
considered extremely important.

Cooling Temperature Control Valves

The heat absorbed by the H.T circuit is transferred to L.T circuit at the
temperature control valve junction.
The outlet temperature of the main engine cooling water is kept
constant at 85-95 by means of temperature control valves by mixing
water from the two central cooling systems i.e. LT system into the HT
system.
Lube oil temperature
80 degrees Celsius seems to be about the optimum figure. As
temperatures reach 100 degrees C you will begin to expreience varnish
deposition on hotter surfaces and below about 65 - 70 C some
components, especially top piston rings and cam/tappets, are not fully
lubricated, causing high wear rates. Whether it is possible for a raw-
water cooled engine in a yacht to achieve 80 C
 Main Engine Alarms and tripping devices
Main engines are guarded against any abnormality in the engine by
alarm and tripping devices. The following nineteen types of alarm and
tripping devices are popularly installed on the engines.

1. Low Lubricating oil pressure trip

2. Engine over-speed tripping device
3. Low jacket cooling pressure trip
4. Main bearing high-temperature trip
5. Piston cooling low-pressure trip
6. camshaft Low lube oil pressure trip
7. The high-temperature thrust-bearing trip
8. Oil mist alarm
9. Emergency manual trip
10. Low sump oil level alarm
11. Lubricating pump tripping alarm
12. High jacket water alarm
13. High piston cooling alarm
14. Low-control air pressure alarm
15. Low starting air pressure alarm
16. High exhaust gas temperature alarm
17. Engine turning gear engaged alarm
18. High turbocharger gas temperature alarm
19. High scavenge temperature alarm
Starting Interlocks
Sr No. Description
 1 Turning gear Engaged

2 Auxiliary Blower off

3 Pre-Lube oil Pump and cooling water Pump not running

4 Interlock for rotating direction

A typical Alarm System will have a sensing device such as

A level sensor

Thermocouple

Pressure sensor.

These sensing devices are connected to display devices which may

have minimum and maximum values marked on them. When this value
reaches, a switch is activated an electrical or pressure signal is sent to
the sips alarm panel and audiovisual warning devices.

The panel’s indicating light will remain on or continue flashing till the
duty engineer acknowledges the alarm and the condition that caused
the alarm to activate has been removed.

It is a protection circuit as well warning circuit. The activation of the

limit switch will also activate the shutdown procedure of the machine.

The protective system activates one or more switches or valves,

causing the machine to come to an unscheduled halt in a controlled
manner.

Safety trips and critical alarms for the Engine safety.Important Guide
Lines

Carry out the alarm system maintenance periodically for the

proper functioning of the sensors and alarms.
 If the alarm indication appears, ascertain the cause of alarm
and then press the reset button.
While adjusting temperature and pressure switches, follow the
following.

Use the calibrated instruments when adjusting the switches.

And the direction of change is taken into account.
After the adjustment, constantly repeat the test at two different

values.
Whenever an automatic restart set is involved, in the machine

control room, always switch the automatic restart circuit to

manual and off before re-set.
Never restart the equipment or put it back into service without

rectifying the cause of alarm.

Always investigate any abnormal run indication even if the

equipment is running smoothly.

The watch-keeping engineer must have enough confidence in

the alarm system and protection devices in the engine

room. He must be sure all the time that he will be given a timely
warning to take immediate action.

1. Over-speed trip: An over-speed device will cut off the fuel supply in
the speeding Engine event more than the predetermined value. Set the
overspeed setting by manual setting It will not allow the Engine to
restart as the reason for overspeeding still exists, and the Engine
might run over speed again.

To ensure the correct operation, maintenance staff should check it

periodically.

As per the practice following two types of over-speed devices are

installed.

Mechanical over Speed Trip is set at 18% more than the

nominal operating RPM (Speed).
  The setpoint of an Electro-pneumatic device is 15% above the
Engine’s Nominal RPM (speed).
2. Jacket water high-temperature Alarm and Trip:-Jacket cooling
Water removes the waste heat. Failure of jacket water to remove the
heat away, seizure of the components will take place due to
expansion. The alarm will indicate the abnormal temperature at the
initial stage and will trip the engine in the event of ignoring the alarm.

3. L.O low-pressure Trip, alarm and Trip:- There will be instant

engine damage due to the low Lube oil pressure. A standard lube oil
pressure device will stop the Engine. The low lube oil pressure will
cause the seizure of components. There will be the failure of Major
components like the Crankshaft, Bearings, and Pistons due to the Low
lube oil pressure

Usually, oil pressure stops the Engine. There are two set points for low
lubricating oil pressure.

 First, setpoints will give the alarm of low Lube oil pressure.
The second set point will stop the Engine to prevent significant

damage to the Engine.

4. High Exhaust gas Temperature:- High exhaust gas temperatures
are too critical and can provide information regarding the Engine
operation. High Exhaust Temperature will indicate the symptoms of
overloading of the Engine. High exhaust temperature will also display
insufficient scavenging in the machine. Severe damage may take
place if the Engine continues to operate at High exhaust
temperature. Therefore High exhaust temperature alarm is provided

Crankcase pressure will rise high due to the blow-by of gases from the
combustion chamber. The high blow-by occurs due to the leaky piston
rings into the Crankcase. High pressure in the crankcase indicates the
poor condition of engine piston rings, Cylinder liners and Pistons.

Basic Terminology
1. Alarm: An Audible and visual alarm will ring if there is any
deviation in the Parameter. The notice will give a pre-warning of the
problem.

2. Slow down: In this process, if the action taken by the Engineer is

not appropriate then the device will slow down the engine.

3. Shut down: For any higher fluctuating parameter that could be the
cause of harm to other engine systems, the shutdown protective
device will cut off the fuel system and stop the Engine.

4. Starting Interlock: Starting Interlock will not allow the Engine to

start if the Engine’s crucial system hasn’t been operated. It will also
interlock the system if the turning gear is appropriately arranged.

Main engine interlocks

Interlocks are provided so that the engine can be started or reversed
only when certain conditions have been fulfilled. When there is remote
control of engines, it is essential to have interlocks.

This reduces the possibility of engine damage and any hazards to the
operating personnel.

1. Turning gear Interlock. This device prevents the engine from being
started if the Turning gear is engaged.

2. Running Direction Interlock. This prevents the fuel from being

supplied if the running direction of the engine does not match the
Telegraph.

3. Starting Air Distributor in the end position. This prevents starting

from taking place if the shifting of the Distributor has not been
completed.

Main Lube. oil pressure, Piston cooling pressure, Jacket water

pressure, and important parameters must be above the required
minimum.
4. Auxiliary Blower Interlock. The Auxiliary Blower is provided in the
case of Constant pressure turbocharging.

5. Air Spring pressure Interlock. In case of the present generation of

engines using Exhaust valves shut by Air Springs, the Air Spring
pressure must always be maintained, else the exhaust valve may not
close

A smaller generator engine might have a tommy bar for manual

turning interlock, the engine would not start if the Tommy bar is
removed from its stoved position by a limit switch
