Fuel filters in the MAN L21/31 engine are crucial for maintaining clean fuel delivery by removing contaminants such as particles and water. These filters protect the fuel injection system from clogging and wear, helping optimize combustion efficiency and extend engine life. Regular inspection and timely replacement of fuel filters (code H87511) are essential to prevent costly repairs and ensure steady engine performance.

The crankshaft is the primary component in the MAN L21/31 engine that converts the pistons’ reciprocating motion into rotational motion to drive the engine. Built from high-strength forged steel, it must withstand significant mechanical stresses and torque while maintaining precise alignment. Its robust design and durability (code E265280000) are critical to the engine’s overall reliability and long-term performance.

The flywheel in the MAN L21/31 engine plays a vital role in stabilizing engine rotation by storing rotational energy. This component smooths out power delivery by balancing the intermittent pulses generated during combustion, reducing vibration and ensuring efficient operation. Made from durable materials, the flywheel (code H33030) is essential for connecting the engine to the transmission system and supporting consistent, reliable performance.

The liner bearing code K 73122 is an inner protective sleeve designed for use within the raw water pump of the Sulzer ZV40/48 diesel engine. It serves as a wear-resistant interface between the pump housing and the rotating shaft, shielding structural components from abrasion and corrosion. Manufactured from durable, corrosion-resistant materials, the liner extends the life of the pump and helps maintain performance by ensuring smooth water flow and reduced mechanical wear. It's a key part of preserving cooling system efficiency in demanding marine environments.
