The cover before the turbocharger, code P51213-03, serves as a protective enclosure that shields the turbocharger inlet from contaminants and mechanical damage. It ensures that only clean, filtered air reaches the compressor, safeguarding the turbocharger’s high-speed rotating components. Built to withstand harsh conditions, this cover is an important part of the engine’s intake system, supporting efficient turbocharging and engine durability.
The water washing system on the compressor side, code P51205-03, is a maintenance feature in the MAN L21/31 engine that enables the removal of dirt, salt, and oil build-up from turbocharger components. By injecting a controlled flow of water while the engine is running at partial load, it ensures optimal compressor efficiency, minimizes performance loss, and extends the service life of the turbocharger. This is especially valuable in marine and coastal operations where air contamination is high.
The drain trap, code P51208-03, is a vital part of the MAN L21/31 engine's turbocharging and air intake system, designed to collect and expel condensed water or oil mist before it can enter the combustion chambers. Its function ensures cleaner intake air and protects critical engine components from corrosion or damage caused by accumulated moisture. Essential in humid or marine environments, the drain trap contributes to improved operational reliability and longevity.
The screw connection K 92182 is a precision fastening element designed specifically for securing component K 92166 within the piping or structural systems of the ZV40/48 engine. Engineered to deliver strong, vibration-resistant engagement, this connection ensures proper alignment, mechanical stability, and leak-free performance in high-pressure, high-temperature conditions. Its robust thread integrity and corrosion-resistant material construction help maintain long-term reliability, preventing loosening or deterioration over extended operating periods. As a small but essential element, K 92182 plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and durability of the engine’s auxiliary assemblies.
The block-ball cock K 87165 is a vital safety and serviceability component within the ZV40/48 engine’s fuel delivery system, allowing operators to isolate or shut off fuel flow quickly and securely. Designed with a durable spherical sealing mechanism, this valve ensures tight closure under high pressure while providing smooth and reliable operation, even in harsh working conditions. Its use improves maintenance efficiency, enhances system safety during repairs or emergencies, and prevents unwanted fuel leakage. By ensuring precise and dependable flow control, the K 87165 block-ball cock supports both operational stability and environmental protection.
The fuel supply pipe K 87160 is a precisely engineered conduit responsible for delivering a steady, contamination-free flow of fuel to the combustion system of the Sulzer/Adriadiesel/Jugoturbina/Zgoda ZV40/48 engine. Built to withstand high pressure, vibration, and continuous thermal stress, this pipe ensures uninterrupted and uniform fuel distribution to each cylinder, which is essential for stable engine performance and efficient combustion. Its robust construction and corrosion-resistant materials help prevent leaks, pressure drops, and premature wear, making K 87160 a critical component for reliable long-term operation in demanding marine and power-generation environments.
