During the de-aerating process it must be checked again ATTENTION! and again if the cooling water is indeed circulating. If air bubbles established in the internal cooling water pump, it could be, that the cooling water circuit is not circulate.
  • Page 56: Installation Of The Standard Exhaust System

    Installation Instructions 7.6 Installation of the water cooled exhaust system 7.6.1 Installation of the standard exhaust system The generator exhaust system must remain completely independent and separate from the exhaust system of any other unit(s) on board. The water lock must be installed at the lowest point of the exhaust system. An optional noise insulated water lock can also be installed.
  • Page 57: Possible Cause For Water In The Exhaust Hose

    Installation Instructions Thereby, the position of the generator and the waterlock, as well as the arrangement of the cooling water and exhaust hoses play the decisive role. If the waterlock is arranged in an unfavourable position, the cooling water flowing back in the exhaust hose can rise so high, that it reaches the exhaust stack.
  • Page 58: The Volume Of The Waterlock

    Installation Instructions The deeper the waterlock is located underneath the generator, the better the protection from entering water into the combustion chamber. The picture below shows that the distance between the critical point at the exhaust elbow and the maximum permissible water level in the exhaust hose is stated with 600 mm.
  • Page 59 Installation Instructions In Fig. 7.7.3.1-1, the waterlock is mounted in center Fig. 7.7.3.1-1: Ideal position of the waterlock underneath the generator. When the ship tilts, the position of the waterlock related to the critical point at the exhaust hose, changes only slightly. Tilted position 15 degrees - Fig.
  • Page 60: Example Of The Installation Of The Waterlock Off-Center And Possible Effects

    Installation Instructions Summary: The preset minimum height of 600 mm must be regarded unconditionally and is only valid if the waterlock is mounted in its ideal position in center underneath the generator. A higher position is highly recommended if it has to be reckoned with tilted positions of 45 degrees.
  • Page 61: Exhaust / Water Separator

    In order to reduce the noise level of the generator unit to a minimum, an optional exhaust outlet muffler can be mounted next to the through-hull fitting. Additionally there is a component at Fischer Panda, which acts as both an „exhaust goose neck“, and water separator.
  • Page 62: Installation Exhaust Water Separator

    Installation Instructions Fig. 7.8.0-1: Installation Scheme exhaust / water separator 7.9 Installation exhaust water separator If the exhaust water separator was sufficiently highly installed, a goose neck is no longer necessary. The exhaust/ water separator fulfils the same function. If the „Super silent“ exhaust system were installed correctly, the generator will not disturb your boat neighbour.
