Inspector checklist

Laufzeug & Tribologie
  • 800 mm, S/B 4.0 — CLU sicherheitskritisch.
  • Kolbenringe: Ringbruch-Risiko.
  • Crosshead: Enormous forces at S/B 4.0 and 800 mm.
Steuerung
  • Massive Nockenwelle.
  • Große Pumpen.
  • Auslassventil.
Kraftstoff
  • Cat-Fines: Absolute Priorität.
  • VLSFO.
Turbolader
  • Turbolader (2 Stück).
Strukturell
  • NDT Pflicht.
  • Zugstangen.

Logbook reference values

Parameter Expected Deviation means
Abgastemperatur 350-400 °C >20 °C → Timing
Kühlwasser 75-85 °C Erhöhung → Kalkbildung

Common Failure Modes

Kolbenring-Bruch
Symptoms: CLU-Sprung
Causes: 800 mm Ring-Länge + S/B 4.0
Preventive: CLU-Trend.
Kreuzkopf
Symptoms: LPI-Abfall
Causes: Enorme Kräfte
Preventive: LPI-Monitoring.

Expert tips

  • 💡 6S80MC-C8: Standard VLCC-Motor. NDT an Motorblock Pflicht.
