Common failures & inspection points

Methane slip via scavenging leakage – unburned methane escapes to exhaust when gas injection occurs before exhaust valve closure; mitigated in CD variant via op

Monitor exhaust methane concentrations; inspect valve timing; verify adaptive combustion control (ACC) system calibration

Combustion instability at low load (<0% MCR) in gas mode – risk of pre-ignition, knocking, and transient power loss during load fluctuations or fuel-quality var

Review engine load profiles during dredger/auxiliary duty; check fuel-gas methane number (spec ≥70 MN); monitor combustion pressure transients

Crankcase explosion hazard during transient operation – accumulation of unburned gas and oil mist in crankcase when switching fuels or under rapid load changes;

Inspect crankcase ventilation filter; check scavenging air receiver for oil/liquid accumulation; monitor crankcase pressure during fuel transitions

Fuel injection nozzle/pilot-fuel system fouling – common-rail pilot-fuel system susceptible to coke deposit buildup and relief-valve drift under variable dual-f

Periodic fuel nozzle inspection; relief valve pressure setting verification; fuel system cleanliness monitoring

Turbocharger bearing accelerated wear under rapid load transients – MAN documentation acknowledges the 35/44DF 'handles high load-fluctuations' in dredger duty,

Monitor turbocharger oil outlet temperature; inspect bearing clearance during scheduled maintenance; verify steady oil-supply pressure under transient load
