The MAN 6S60ME-GA10 is a low‑speed, two‑stroke marine main engine delivering up to 33.9 MW at 105 rpm, notable for its dual‑fuel capability (LNG/Ethane and conventional heavy fuel oil) and Tier III NOx compliance.

Inspection

Inspector Detail ✓ verified

Designation decoded

6 steht für 6 Zylinder, S für Super-Long-Stroke, 60 für 600 mm Bohrung, ME-GA für elektronisch gesteuerte Zweitaktmaschine mit Ethan-fähiger Gaseinspritzung, 10 für Mark 10.

Background

Die S60ME-GA10 mit 6 Zylindern bietet mehr Leistung als die 5-Zylinder-Variante. S/B 4.0 bei 600 mm Bohrung. Für VLEC/VLGC mit höherem Leistungsbedarf. Besseres Schwingungsverhalten als 5 Zylinder.

Inspector checklist

Laufzeug & Tribologie
  • Zylinderlaufbuchsen: S/B 4.0 bei 600 mm — Seitenkräfte, im Gasbetrieb Kaltverschleiß-Risiko
  • Kolbenringe: Gas-Schmierungsbedingungen
  • Zylinderschmierung: BN-Anpassung im Gasbetrieb
Gaseinspritz-System
  • Gas-Einspritzventile: Dichtheit prüfen
  • FGSS: Kompressor und Sicherheit
  • Gas-Detektoren: Kalibrierung
Elektronische Steuerung
  • ME-Steuerung: FIVA, HPS/HCU, EICU
  • Gas/Diesel-Umschaltung
  • Sicherheitslogik
Spülluft & Abgassystem
  • Spülluftkasten: Bei 600 mm zugänglich
  • Turbolader: Weniger Fouling bei Gas
  • Abgastemperatur über 6 Zylinder

Common Failure Modes

  • Gas-Einspritzventil-Leckage

    Symptoms: Gas-Alarm, Druckabfall

    Causes: Düsennadel-Verschleiß, Ethan-Exposition

    Preventive: Ventile bei Kolbenziehung inspizieren

  • Kaltverschleiß im Gasbetrieb

    Symptoms: Erhöhte Wear-Rate

    Causes: Niedrigere Temperatur bei Gas, BN zu hoch

    Preventive: BN25-Zylinderöl, Kühlwasser >65 °C

  • Elektronik-Fehler

    Symptoms: Gas-Trip, Diesel-Fallback

    Causes: Sensor-Ausfall, EICU-Fehler

    Preventive: Sensor-Kalibrierung, Redundanz

Expert tips

  • 6×S60ME-GA10: Besseres Schwingungsverhalten als 5 Zylinder — weniger Torsionsprobleme bei Gas/Diesel-Umschaltung
  • Im Gasbetrieb: Spülluftkasten ist sauberer als bei Diesel — aber bei Umschaltung auf Diesel können Ablagerungen auftreten, Übergangsphase überwachen
  • VLEC/VLGC-spezifisch: Boil-off-Rate des Ethans schwankt mit Außentemperatur — Gas-Versorgungsdruck im Logbuch verfolgen

Free of charge — send us your request for MAN Energy Solutions equipment. Our team checks it and replies by e-mail.

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we can check availability and prices faster; without them we may have to ask first, which can cost a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
