Service & Operation Manuals

As it is clear from the title, this officially published Wartsila NSD Corporation paper has been dedicated to the cracks that are commonly occurring in the columns of the Sulzer RTA-46 engines. The book starts with the introductory section with general info on the subject, followed with three main chapters addressing the design, manufacturing and operational aspects; the remaining chapters of the volume are dealing with the countermeasures to be taken for the engines in service and proposed repair solutions. Service bulletins officially released for these engines conclude the document.

Sulzer RTA-62 Diesel Engines Service Bulletin - Prevention of Water Carry-Over and Liner Polishing. This is the Technical information to all operators and owners of Sulzer RTA engines. Released by Wartsila in 2003. Numerous piston running-related technical problems have been already reported on these engines when passing the tropical waters.

The results obtained in the course of the relevant investigations are showing that the carryover of water could cause the damage to the oil film consequently leading to the SSW, standing for the sudden severe wear. Hard deposits are forming on the piston crowns because of the excessive amount of lube oil and combustion residues, increasing the danger of impairing the lube oil film on the cylinder liners...

Another official service bulletin released by Wartsila - this one addresses the variable injection timing (VIT) and fuel oil quality setting (FQS). The opening introductory part of the document is followed with the one explaining the general working principle of the FQS and VIT. The next part provides the info on the different versions of the FQS and VIT design, while the following two parts are dealing with the mechanically and electronically controlled FW+QS and VIT. The last part is dedicated to the operational aspects to be considered. As usual, the book concludes with the service bulletin.

An official release by New Sulzer Diesel Ltd. The content of the volume is arranged in four parts. While the first part of the book is introductory and provides some general technical information, the second and third parts contain tightening instructions for the normal screws and waisted studs. The closing part of the volume contains the service bulletins that were officially published for the large bore engines of RTA type produced by Sulzer.
