Service

Service notes.

What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.

Service notes

Check starting reliability, load acceptance, speed stability and the engine's ability to carry its assigned electrical or mechanical load. Trend exhaust temperatures, oil pressure, cooling temperatures and abnormal vibration and compare cylinders or operating points for imbalance. Inspect fuel, oil, cooling-water and exhaust systems for leakage and verify filters, coolers, pumps and ventilation are in serviceable condition. For generator sets, verify governor response, load sharing, generator protection, emergency shutdowns and automatic-start functions where fitted. Inspect foundations, flexible mounts or couplings and the interface with the alternator or driven machine. For cylinder dimensions, rotational speed, pressures, clearances, temperatures, wear limits and setting values, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Need this part?

Request a quote for this model.

Free of charge — we forward your request to qualified suppliers for Caterpillar equipment from our network of over 114,000 maritime companies.

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we usually come back with prices; without them we have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
