Fig. 3 – V engines Layout
The inside diameter of the outlet pipe to the sump must be at least 12 mm. The venting pipe to the sump must
be 6 mm in outside diameter, connected to a point above the lubricant level and free of restriction due to bends
or obstacles of any kind.
With the engine running, the oil level in the box must lie between the two defined limits. This way, in the event of
oil overfilling due to a failure of the automatic supply system, fuel or water ingress or oil leaks, the device
outputs the high-level or low-level alarm signal, as appropriate.
With the engine at rest, the oil level may rise up to the high limit, occasionally indicating a situation of excess oil.
This results from backflow, i.e. oil flows back from the lubricating circuit to the sump, when the engine has
stopped.
