Features
- The world’s first mechanical lubrication system achieves uncharted territory.
- Achieved cylinder lubricating oil amount of 0.5g/Ps・h using the existing lubricator!
- A PC valve converts the oil into high-speed pressure waves and sends the oil.
- The nozzle and cylinder liner groove have been designed to spread the oil around the circumference and make it easier to form an oil film.
- Oil supply can be confirmed by the lighting of the LED lamp, improving visibility in the engine room.
- It also helps protect the environment by reducing lubricant drain.
- Basically, the existing mechanical lubricator is modified and used, so the construction is easy and the operation remains the same.
- Patent pending for MPL lubrication system.
System Configuration
The parts to be replaced during remodeling work are shown. When installing the MPL system, it is necessary to groove the cylinder liner, but this can be done using a special tool without removing the piston. (B&W.UFC Type)
Lubrication Timing and Range
MPL has the same mechanism as the conventional mechanical type, and achieves “lower cost” and “same low lubrication rate” than the electronically controlled type.
