The spring identified with code K 87091 is an essential load-bearing element within the pressure regulating valve of the ZV40/48 engine. Its purpose is to apply the necessary preload force that determines the valve’s opening pressure, allowing precise control of fluid or gas flow under varying operational conditions. Built from high-tensile alloy steel, the spring resists fatigue and deformation across thousands of cycles, ensuring consistent pressure regulation. Its resilience directly affects system efficiency, safety, and responsiveness in both marine and industrial applications.

The housing coded K 87086 is the robust external casing of the pressure regulating valve used in the ZV40/48 diesel engine’s fuel or air systems. Designed to endure high pressures and fluctuating temperatures, it provides the structural base that contains internal components like springs, seals, and actuators. Made from precision-machined, corrosion-resistant materials, this housing ensures the valve operates safely and efficiently, while withstanding constant vibration and fluid dynamics. Its critical role is to maintain system stability by securely housing the mechanism that regulates pressure levels essential for optimal engine performance.

The regulating device, code P50902-09, is a precision component responsible for adjusting fuel injection or air intake parameters in the MAN L21/31 engine. It works alongside the governor and sensors to fine-tune engine performance based on real-time demands. By improving combustion balance and energy use, it ensures the engine operates smoothly across a wide range of operating conditions.

The actuator and its drive mechanism, identified by code P50901-31, play a central role in managing the timing and function of fuel delivery or valve systems in the MAN L21/31 engine. Operating either hydraulically or electronically, the actuator translates control signals into mechanical motion, ensuring fast and accurate adjustments. Its contribution is critical in dynamic engine environments, improving efficiency, emissions control, and responsiveness.
