Side Casing (Code Number K 16221-AD)

Written by

The side casing, marked with code number K 16221-AD, serves as a protective and structural enclosure on the side of the Sulzer ZV40/48 diesel engine. This robust component helps shield vital engine systems from external contaminants such as dust, moisture, and mechanical impact. It also adds to the engine’s structural stability, especially in marine and industrial applications where exposure to harsh conditions is common. Engineered for endurance, the side casing is a critical part of maintaining engine cleanliness, safety, and operational consistency.

The cover support with code number K 16272 plays a key role in stabilizing and securing the front cover of the Sulzer ZV40/48 diesel engine. This component ensures precise alignment and structural integrity of the front cover, which is essential for protecting internal engine parts from environmental exposure and mechanical damage. Made from durable materials, it withstands vibrations, thermal stress, and prolonged mechanical loads. Proper installation and maintenance of the cover support contribute significantly to engine longevity and reliable performance in challenging operating environments.

The handle identified by code number K 27008 is designed specifically for the cover K 27007 in the Sulzer ZV40/48 diesel engine. While simple in appearance, it plays a vital role in facilitating easy access to engine components for inspection, maintenance, or repairs. Built from strong, corrosion-resistant materials, the handle ensures safe and reliable operation in demanding environments. Its ergonomic design allows for firm grip and ease of use, supporting the overall maintenance efficiency of the engine system.

The complete fuel pressure line, designated by code number K 27250, is an integral part of the Sulzer ZV40/48 engine's fuel delivery system. It ensures that high-pressure fuel is efficiently and reliably transported from the pump to the injectors, enabling consistent combustion performance. Constructed from robust materials to withstand extreme pressure and temperature, this component is key to maintaining fuel system integrity. Regular inspection and maintenance of the fuel pressure line are essential to avoid leaks and ensure optimal engine efficiency and operational safety.
