The housing cover identified by code K 32315 is designed to enclose and protect the pinion shaft assembly within the Sulzer ZV40/48 engine. This cover plays a critical role in shielding internal components from contaminants, retaining lubricants, and ensuring the mechanical integrity of the pinion system. Its precise fitment supports the proper alignment of rotating parts, reducing wear and vibration. A reliable housing cover like this is key to preserving gearbox efficiency and minimizing maintenance downtime.

The bush coded K 28008 is a vital wear-resistant insert used in the Sulzer ZV40/48 diesel engine's main rocker arm (K 28005). This component serves as a bearing surface, allowing the rocker arm to pivot smoothly with minimal friction while maintaining precise valve timing under high load conditions. Engineered for durability, the bush absorbs stress and reduces wear on the rocker arm, significantly extending the engine’s service life. Regular inspection and lubrication of this part are essential to ensure efficient valve actuation and overall engine performance.

MAN L21/31; ENGINE FRAME (Code D51101-06.0)

Written by

The engine frame, code D51101-06.0, serves as the structural backbone of the MAN L21/31 engine. It houses and supports the core components such as the crankshaft, camshaft, and cylinder block, ensuring proper alignment and load distribution. Built for high strength and long service life, the engine frame plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity and vibration resistance of the engine, especially in demanding marine propulsion or power generation environments.

The torque wrench, code 08.06411-0021.0, is a vital instrument in the toolkit for maintaining MAN L21/31 engines. Used to apply precise torque to bolts and nuts, this tool helps prevent overtightening or under-tightening, both of which can lead to engine damage or failure. Accurate torque application ensures optimal sealing, component lifespan, and safe engine operation, making the torque wrench indispensable for high-performance marine and industrial engine servicing.
