Propulsion Gearbox / Reduction Gear · Propulsion Gearbox
Marine propulsion gearboxes are vital components in the operation of vessels, transferring power from the engine to the propeller shaft. The Reintjes WVS 2440 is a marine reduction gearbox designed specifically for marine propulsion applications. This gearbox boasts a rated power of 7000 kW, making it suitable for a wide range of vessels requiring substantial power output. Classified as a marine reduction gearbox within the WVS series, it is built with a focus on weight optimization. The WVS 2440 incorporates an integrated sump with a shared operating pressure and lubrication oil system. Maintenance for this gearbox involves regular inspections and oil changes. Initial maintenance is required after 200 operating hours, followed by intervals of every 2000 hours or 6 months. Typical inspection points include examining the gear teeth for wear and tear, inspecting the bearings for damage, and analyzing the oil for contamination or signs of combustion. The gearbox's hydraulic clutch requires checks for wear, leaks, and pressure loss, while the shaft alignment and bearing load should be monitored for proper operation.
