5.2 Operation Safety regulations In all centrifugal separators the bowl rotates at a very high speed, normally between 100 and l50 revolutions per second. Thus, very great forces are released and it is essential, therefore, to follow strictly the directions given in the Instruction Book concerning assembly of parts, starting, stopping and overhaul
3.3 Batch and continuous lubricating systems For small or medium units without a circulatory lubricating system, the oil is often treated on the batch system. As large a quantity of oil as possible is drained from the engine at intervals and run into a heating tank, the system being replenished with clean oil at the same time
Learning Objectives The learning objectives of this section are to make all engineers, engine cadets and other crew members who are involved in the handling of fuels onboard, familiar with: – How to handle the fuel. – Take the necessary simple precautions by following test procedures
A fire and bilge pump has suctions from sea, bilge main and engine room bilge, with discharges to fire main, oily water separator and overboard. A ballast pump has suctions from sea, ballast main, engine room , bilge direct and bilge main with discharges to overboard, the ballast main, the oily water separator and possibly, the main salt water circulating system
In motorships there are two main circuits, one salt , one fresh. The salt circuit is: sea inlet box (seachest) - pump(s) - f.w. coolers in series (first LT then HT) – turbo blower aftercoolers in parallel (if any) – provision condenser in parallel (if any) - overboard
