Working principles

Section 5

The housing sections are made by rigid cast design or in welded sheet steel construction.Optimum vibration characteristics with excellent smooth running have been additionally achieved by means of pronounced ribbing.The bottom of the housing is used as an oil tanks, this configuration eliminates a very large extent the problems resulting from thermal expansion when aligning the gear box in the ves-sel.On this level of the lower parting line the output shaft with the propeller trust bearing is lo-cated in the rear area. The propeller thrust is transmitted from this bearing via the housing bottom part with its stopper faces directly to the stoppers of the ship foundation.So, no forces caused by the propeller thrust are applied on the remaining housing structure.The housing is exactly fixed to the foundation by closed fitting bolts.The input shaft with the main pinion and the gears, are located on the same level with the output shaft.To ensure service of the gear box there are some covers permitting simple quick inspection of gear system.

5.2 BEARINGS

The output shaft is supported by roller or slide bearings. They are designed to take maximum propeller thrust astern and ahead.The output shaft is axially secured by thrust bearing self aligning which also absorbs the pro-peller thrust and transmits it to the ship’s foundation.

The input shaft is also supported by roller bearings: the axial forces resulting from the gear theeth are absorbed by axial part of the roller bearings.

The roller and slide bearings are supplied with oil by housing bores.

Working principles

Section 5

The gear system is oiling with an oil pump, that is use for engagement of the clutch.

The oil pump receives the motion of the shaft entrance and the speed of rotation depends on the revolutions of the engine.

The oil pressure is maintained constant by means of the distributor.

The oil is cooled by an heat exchanger made by cooling tubes which are resistant to salty sea water.The volume of heat generated in the gearbox is removed partly by radiating from the surface of the housing and partly through the oil cooler the oil cooler included in the basic version of the gearbox is mounted on the housing.All the necessary oil lines are securely attached and ready for operation.For permissible water flow rate and pressure loss between cooling water inlet and outlet the speci-fied water pressure and temperature at the cooling water inlet must not be exceeded.The correct gearbox temperature is achieved by adjustment of the cooling water flow rate.A replaceable orifice, valve or similar device must be included in the ciruit for this purpose.For this reason, the gearbox water circuit should be arranged in a by-pass from the engine cooling water circuit. The maximum temperature increase of the cooling water in the gearbox oil cooler is 3 °C and is of no significance to the engine oil circuit.The stated maximum cooling water flow through the gearbox oil cooler must not be exceeded since this may lead to cavitation in the cooler.Similarly, the minimum flow rate must always be maintained or else sludge may form in the cooler after only a relatively short period of operation.

Before being cooled, the oil passes through a double oil filter with a contamination indicator.

Seals

The split - type seals, because of the labyrinth inside prevent any leakage of lube oil at the input and output shafts.

They are designed for an easy maintenance.

Clutch

The multiple disk clutches incorporated in the gearbox are hydraulically operated via direc-tional control valves activated by the clutch control.

A smooth and reliable hydraulic shifting electrically activated is obtained by a pressure modulation.

Stand-by oil pump

The electrical driven stand-by pump supplies the gear box with oil prior to startup. If neces-sary, this pump will also perform the function of the oil pump fitted to the gear box.

During the installation of the stand by pump verify that the suction pressure is not lower than - 0,6 bar.

6.3. ALIGNMENT WORK TO BE PERFORMED

Measures to be taken for gearbox alignment are described below.

Note: The alignment must be verified while the craft is in the water.Make sure that the hull does not come in contact with the sea floor.

Before launch secure the transmission against movement.

Secure the shaft propeller against turning.

• Be sure to mount the gearbox with associated coupling removed so that the gearbox housing is free from distortions when being attached to the ship’s foundation.

• Prerequisite for a trouble-free operation of the gearbox is that the output and input ends are carefully aligned.

Displacement that may arise during operation must be duly taken into account when aligning the unit. Such displacements result from a thermal expansion of the gearbox housing and operating position of the output and input shafts.

Note: As required by the respective alignment temperatures and the shaft’s rotational direction observe the necessary compensation values and their measuring points as per the Diagram Reported in the appendix (see Appendix).

Generic behaviour of thermal growth

This diagram show the characteristic compensation curve caused by the operational temperature on the input output shaft of the transmission and permits an high precision in cold alignment.

Installation Description

Section 6

6.3.1 Radial and axial run-out

A prerequisite for the correct alignment of the gear box with respect to the propeller shaft is to avoid allowing the shaft to lower or bend due to the weight of the shaft itself and the propeller shaft flange.

Align the gearbox standing on the alignment bolts in relation to the propeller line shafting. For horizontal alignment suitable set screws must be arranged laterally on the four corners of the gearbox baseplate.

Note: The location of the alignment bolts can be seen from the installation drawing included in the Appendix.

Note: For alignment purposes check the elastic line calculations established for the propeller line shafting and take from it the respective values regarding deflection and gap between the two shafts.

Also you have to check the radial and axial run-out of the propeller shaft flange.For this verification, the output flange of the transmission must not be in contact to the propeller shaft.

Take care to not damage the shaft seal with uncareful movement.

Position a comparator (A) so that the feeler is radially in contact with the propeller shaft flange and a second comparator (B) must be positioned perpendicular to the face of the flange, as shown in the illustration. (Fig. 6.3) The comparator (A) detects the radial run-out and the comparator (B) detects the axial run-out.

6.3.2 Radial and angular misalignment

For this check go ahead like shown in (fig. 7.3)Put the comparator (A) and (B) like discribed and fix them to the output flange of the gearbox.The comparator (A) detects the absolute radial error and (B) the angular error referenced to a flange with diameter of 500 mm.

At operation temperature and under full load the allowable deviations are:Radial and axial run-out max: 0.04 mmRadial and angular misalignment max: 0.05 mm (on 500 mm)

• To avoid measuring errors when determining the amount of angular displacement during alignment turn the gearbox shafts in one direction only. Changing the direction of rotation will cause shaft displacement in the gearbox housing due to roller bearing play.

Tel. +39-049 8299-311 – Fax +39-049 8299-550 – www.ZF-Marine.com50

• During shaft alignment make sure to turn the two shafts simultaneously and take measurements always on the same spot on the flanges. Measuring result ascertained in this way will not be affected by concentric or plane runout which may exist.

Check the alignment in relation to the propeller line shafting after the gearbox has finally been provided with shims and bolted to the ship’s foundation.

Align the motor in relation to the gearbox input shaft.

Subsequently, mount the coupling between motor and gearbox.

For motor alignment observe the manufacturer’s instructions issued and pay also attention to guidance notes applicable to the coupling.

Please note that it is not the responsibility of ZF Padova to carry out the above described measures to properly align gearbox, motor and coupling.

An accurate alignment is indispensable for maintaining the flexible coupling as long as possible, as every misalignment has a negative effect on all the rotating elements. Use only flexible, highly elastic couplings.Make sure that the flexible coupling for input shaft is able to absorb the vibrations caused by away from the area between idling and rated speed of the engine. Selection normally will be done by the engine manifacturer.Therefore ZF PADOVA is not responsible for vibration problems resulting from the installation.

6.4 FASTENING WORK TO BE PERFORMED

Bedding of the gearbox on cast-iron/steel adapters or resinoid adapters and subsequent fastening to the ship’s foundation are effected as described below.Stoppers or fitted bolts must transfer the propeller thrust in the gear foundation.

Gearbox foundation

Note: Make sure that the bores for the foundation bolts have been provided in the ship’s foundation in line with the shipyard’s job scheduling.

• The arrangement of the bores in the gearbox foundation plate is shown in the installation drawing included in the Appendix.

Before foundation work is carried out the respective drawings and calculation data must have been prepared by the Contractor performing the work and submitted to the classification society for approval.

Note: Please note that all foundation work is subject to the respective rules and regulations issued by the classification society.

• Make sure that all loads affecting the sizing of the required shims are duly taken into account: torque, propeller thrust and deadweight of the gearbox.

The supports must be adequately sized and tightly anchored to the gearbox foundation.You can use either the foundation screws with the supports or the transmission screws.Only rectangular set chock type support are permitted and the material must be agreed with the “Certifying Authorities”. The support surface of the ZF mounting bracket has been designed for direct mounting on a rigid surface.

Once the casting resin has hardened, the gearbox should only be supported by the casting resin and not by the alignment screws or any other alignment aids. When aligning the gearbox, the way in which the casting resin reacted to shrink fitting during hardening should be taken into consideration.

We recommend that plans for the design of any mountings made of casting resin are made in conjunction with the casting resin supplier and/or a certified specialist company. A specialist company is able to provide advice at an early stage and is able to create the calculations and drawings required for approval from a classification society and to submti these for approval.The anchoring screws must be at least class 8.8 ISO 898 steel and they must comply with requirements in consideration of the vessel specifications. Tightening torque values depend on the vessel specifications. Make sure the transmission does not shift longitudinally due to the effect of the axial thrust exerted by the propeller.Use longitudinal foundation shirms in steel. Make a final check of alignment and, if satisfactory, secure the screws with double nuts. Mark the nut threads with paint to facilitate periodic bolt tightness visual inspections.

Starting Operation

7.1 INTRODUCTION

This section describes the preparatory measures and course of action to be followed when taking the gearbox into and out of service. The respective notes on safety shall be duly observed.The safety and maintenance are prerequisites for trouble-free operation, maximum performance and along service life.

Do not touch any rotating parts.

Periodic supervision and registration of measured parameters provides a duty profile for the marine gearbox.

Provide for the arrangement of adequate touch guards for all rotating parts located on the input and output side of the gearbox.

Check the correct operating position of the stop valves and gate valves mounted in the piping system.

Note: Make sure the stop valves arranged in the oil discharge lines between gearbox and contami-nated oil tank are closed.

When carrying out the following activities make sure that no lubricants are discharged into the environment.

7.2 PREPARATORY MEASURES

Note: Please note that ZF has adjusted the pressure relief valves of the motor-driven oil pump units to the prescribed pressures as well as the switching points of the monitoring devices.

Fill clean oil into the gearbox system as prescribed by the lubricating oil specification and follow the procedures and instruction given below:

When filling the system take care that no dirt, foreign matter or water are allowed to enter the gearbox interior.

Note: A list of approved oil brands forms is reported in the Appendix.

• Note down the volume of oil filled in when carrying out oil changes within the scope of mainte-nance work.

• Other oil brands must only be used if ZF approval has been obtained. The risk of damage in case a non-approved product is product is employed lies solely with the Owner.

Before first start be sure that the cartridges are present in the twin-type filter.

Fill the operating oil volume into the gearbox, when gear unit stands still: the correct oil level is between the two marks on the oil dipstick.

Check and, if necessary, correct the oil level, when stand-by pump is switch on.Using the transmission with an insufficient quantity of oil air may be taken in by the pump.

On the other hand, on high quantity of oil could result in leakage through the gaskets and vents, and could cause the operational temperature to increase significantly, including low clutch pres-sure.

Top both oil pump up with oil through the connection located upstream of each of the intake noz-zles to avoid the pumps running dry when first taken into service.

Tel. +39-049 8299-311 – Fax +39-049 8299-550 – www.ZF-Marine.com57

Check if the non return valves are assembled correctly.

• Gearbox and dil pipes have to be flushed using the stand-by pump for at least two hours.

• Inspect the filter and eventually clean it.

Make up the cooling water supply connection to the oil cooler and make sure that the cooling water pressure is lower than the oil pressure. This will largely safeguard the in the lubricating oil circuit against the ingress of water in the event of a cooler leakage.

Note: Be sure that the rated current level indicated on the electric motor rating plate is not exceeded.

Check the fittings for possible oil learage.Check the oil supply and monitoring system for leakage and proper functioning.Check the negative pressure at the intake connection of the oil pump.

Note: Take care that the determined negative pressure does not exceed 0,6 bar.

Check the oil pressure on the discharge connection of the oil pump via the attached pressure gauge.

Take care that the determined negative oil pressure does not exceed 0,6 bar.

Should oil pressure corrections be necessary they are effected via the pressure relief valve at-tached to the oil pump.

Check and, if necessary, correct the oil level once more. Observe the markings on the oil dipstick.Check all rotating parts for ease of movement by rotating the propulsion system.

7.3 COMMISSIONING ACTIVITIES

Initial commissioningSwitch on motorized oil pump unit. The motorized oil pump unit- prelubricates the gearbox.Start the propulsion system and slowly increase the speed to approx. 50% of rated speed. Operate the gearbox under partial load at abt. 25% of rated torque until the oil temperature at the gearbox input is approx. 45°C at an oil pressure of 2 ± 0.5 bar. Gradually increase the load to 40% of rated torque and maintain this load for a period of approx. 3 hours.

Slowly increase speed and power. Maintain a load corresponding to 70% of rated torque for a period of abt. 3 hours before operating the system under full load.

Check the contact patterns of the tooth flanks of all pinions and gears after approx. 10 hours full-load operation.

For correction clutch functioning, the gear engaging must take place in a reasonably short time.The maximum speed allowed for the gear engaging should be about 60% of the maximum en-gine rotation.

Reduce speed and power if the bearing temperatures are found to be inadmissibly high.

Bearing temperature, lubricating oil pressure limits and the oil supply are specified in the technical data.

To be able to detect any malfunctions in good time and thus to implement preventive measures, monitoring during operation is indispensable.It is advisable to note the operating pressures, oil temperature and bearing temperatures regularly.

If irregularities are detected during operation (noise, vibration) or if the operating data change, the system should be shut off immediately and the cause established.

Therefore, check after approx.. 10 hours full-load operation:- all bolted connections and pipe couplings / union for tightness as well as - the complete gearbox installation for leakage.

Tighten all loose bolted connections and pipe couplings at the prescribed torque rate.

Tel. +39-049 8299-311 – Fax +39-049 8299-550 – www.ZF-Marine.com59

• Replace damage gaskets/seals when the unit is stationary and the engine is in cold state.

Observe the noise and vibration characteristics of the gearbox system during all operating states.

Note: In the event of irregularities please notify the service department of ZF immediately.

Check the operating chamber of the twin-type filter for fouling.

Note: The contact-type differential pressure gauge attached to the twin-type filter indicates even minor states of filter fouling.

Check the settings of the pressure monitoring equipment.

Note: The nominal switch points are listed in the oil supply and monitoring diagram included in the Appendix.

Check the oil level of the gearbox. If the oil level is found to be incorrect the oil volume must be topped up as required.

When initial commissioning has been completed prepare the respective protocol and submit one copy of it to ZF service department.

Note: This document will be added to the production data compiled by ZF and shall serve as a basis in the event warranty claims are raised.

7.3.1 Towing

During if the navigation in tow, it will be necessary to lubricate the rotating parts for at least five minutes.Lubrication can be done by the stand by pump.If lubrication is not possible, the propeller shaft must be blocked in order to prevent its rotation as a result of the dragging effect, otherwise you can damage the gearbox.Continuous trailing operation is possible with a stand by pump running.

7.4 SHUTDOWN ACTIVITIES

When the transmission system is shut down for a maximum period of one week no special meas-ures need be taken. If the shutdown period exceeds one week the propulsion system must be turned once a week to prevent corrosion and oil gumming.

Note: Make sure the turning operation takes place when the motorized oil pump unit is switched on.

After stop gearbox turning the stand by pumps has to work at leat 10 min. in order to gradually cool the transmission.

• Switch off the respective motor-driven oil pump when turning has been completed.

Stop the cooling water flow to the oil cooler and drain the cooler via the respective drain plugs provided.

Check the gearbox system for damage, leakage, corrosion and untight components.

Water in the lubricating oil is especially dangerous. A bearing can run for a short time with a limited quantity of water in the oil, but thus may NEVER be allowed to happen with a gear wheel as wate, even in the smallest quantities, causes immediate pitting. To prevent condensed moisture forming in the casing during operation and above all during stationary periods the gear unit is vented. The air heats up in the gear unit and is thus able to absorb the moisture. After the system has been shut off, ensure that no engine room fans are directed at the casing. This applies particularly in tropical zones, where considerable temperature gradients must be expected, especially at night.

8.2 EMERGENCY OPERATION

Stop the engine and ensure that it is not involuntarily started up (set the control unit to neutral). Remove the relative inspection cover. Tighten screws SW19 (tightening torque 71 Nm) evenly in a diametrically opposite sequence in two steps. The disk pack is compressed and the clutch is engaged. Set the control unit to NEUTRAL. The propeller shaft will turn as soon as the engine is started.

Note: The utmost caution must be exercised during emergency operation with the main clutch. When emergency screws SW19 are tightened, maximum torque transmission is permitted. Once the problem has been solved, loosen the screws completely. On arrival in port check the clutch disks and unscrew the bolts SW19 up to the original position. If the transmission is used repeatedly in emergency mode strip it down and check all bearings and gearing components carefully.

Make sure the engine and propeller are at a stand still before carrying out kind of operation on the gear box.

8.3 MECHANICAL ACTIVATION GUIDE

101 Electrical control unit102 Neutral position105 Gear lever for emergency mechanical operation106 Plug/socket connection

In the event of an electrical actuator fault, the gearbox can be operated mechanically by means of the emergency lever. For safety reasons the normal actuator device should be disabled before us-ing the emergency lever. This is achieved by unplugging the electrical connector from its socket.The electrical actuator connected to the control unit is designed in such a way that the selected position is maintained in the event of an electrical power loss. The emergency lever can be moved manually. During the movement the operator will be able to note the detented operating posi-tions.

DANGER - If the electrical supply is cut off, the running position will be maintained.

The emergency lever will remain in the selected position.Consult your nearest ZF Service Centre for the necessary repairs.

8.4 NOTES ON OPERATION UNDER SPECIAL CONDITIONS

Action required at low shaft speed

It must be ensured that the standby engine oil pump unit is switched on under the following op-erating conditions:

- Turning of the gearbox for inspection purposes by means of the turning engine

- Driven propeller by approach flow with Diesel engine uncoupled.

Dragging of the propeller shaft

It has to be taken into account that, with the clutch shut down and the motors running, a torque is being transmitted onto the propeller shaft due to residual friction between the clutch disks. Under special conditions it is, therefore, possible that the propeller shaft is driven. The probability of the propeller shaft being dragged is aided by the following circumstances:

- The disks of the clutch are new.

- Cold lube oil in circulation.

- Two or more drives are acting on the same output.

- In the case of a short overall length of the output shaft between gearbox and propeller the fric-tion, on the whole, is comparatively low.

- A corresponding flow at the propeller will aid its drive.

- Dragging of the PTO shaft (if it existing)

In this case, however, special attention should be paid to the fact that the PTO’swith own clutch can be caused to turn unexpectedly, e.g. by running machines on board (vibrations).

9.1 PROTECTION AGAINST CORROSIONPreservation

K1 Preservation

After operation, drain the gearbox oil and top up with anti-corrosion oil to at least the low oil level mark on the dipstick (see description of maintenance work).Use anti-corrosion oil grades C 642 or 644 acc. to MIL-L-21-260.

Immediately afterwards allow gearbox to run in with the clutch engaged for around 5 - 10 minutes at max 50% of the nominal engine speed.Shut off the engine.Protect exterior steel parts against corrosion.

Extension of preservation period for another 9 months

Allow engine to run for approximately 5 minutes. Now drain off the protective oil and fill the gear-box with the correct grade and amount of oil specified for operation.

Start the engine again and allow it to run for at least 15 minutes. During this period the gearbox selector clutches must be activated several times. Now repeat the “K1” preservation procedure.

Returning to operation after the K1 preservation procedure

Start the engine and allow it to run for approx. 5 minutes so that any condensation water that may have collected in the gearbox mixes with the protective oil. Drain off protective oil and fill gearbox with the specified oil grade.

K2 Long term preservation

Drain off the oil in the gearbox after operation and fill with anti-corrosion oil up the low oil level mark on the dipstick (see description of maintenance work). Use anti-corrosion oil C 642 or C 644 acc. to MIL-L-21 260.

Immediately afterwards allow gearbox to run with the clutch engaged for around 5 - 10 minutes at max 50% of the nominal engine speed.Shut off the engine end fill completely the gearbox with the same anti-corrosion oil.Protect exterior steel parts against corrosion.

Returning to operation after the K2 long-term preservation procedure

Drain off anti-corrosion oil down to the usual oil level and allow the engine to run for approx. 5 minutes. Now drain off the anti-corrosion oil completely and fill the gearbox with oil of the speci-fied type.

9.4 CHANGING THE OIL FILTER

Note: The contamination indicator monitors the filter side during operation, as shown by the posi-tion of the selector lever lock. The flow transfer valve must be switched before carrying out filter maintenance. At this point the contamination indicator signal is reset so the red button can be released again.

1. Activate the pressure equalisation lever and hold it in position; the lever is located in the selector lever Swivel commutation lever. Engage the lock on the right-hand side nearest to the filter.

Place the drip tray underneath to collect oil that flows out.

2. Loosen bleeder screw [1] of the unused filter side by 2-3 turns; fully out for backward motion up against the safety stop.

3. Unscrew the filter grit trap anti-clockwise and clean thoroughly.

4. Remove the filter element with a sideways movement.

5. Check the O-ring on the filter’s grit trap for possible signs of damage and renew if necessary.

6. Ensure the part number of the spare corresponds with the number on the filter label. Open the plas-tic bag and push the element onto the part inside the filter head. Now remove the plastic bag.

7. When installation is complete, tighten the grit trap by turning it clockwise as far as it will go. Unscrew the grit trap by between a 1⁄4 and 1⁄2 turn.

8. To fill the filter chamber, activate the pressure equalisation lever until the oil flows out from the bleed hole without bubbles.

9. Tighten the bleed screw. Check that the filters are not leaking by activating the pressure equali-sation lever again.

9.5 OIL COOLER CHECK

The most common types of problem caused by leakage of coolant from the tubes are corrosion and erosion.The cooling tubes are coated with copper-nickel 90/10; this type of treatment is seawater resistant although not in all working conditions.We therefore strongly recommend observing the following instructions to avoid the risk of erosion / corrosion of the oil cooler.

1. Start-up:

• Make sure the anode is not corroded. The anode must be renewed when more than 60% is corroded.

(See the maintenance program).

2. Maintenance

Periodic checksPeriodic checks of the device are required to guarantee its safe and reliable operation through time. As a general rule greater attention must be directed towards the water-side of the circuit; the oil side is less susceptible to contamination so checks can be carried out as recommended by the experience of the operator.The following checks should be carried out:• When working with seawater the sacrificial anodes installed in the hoods/covers should be

checked at 3-monthly intervals in the initial phase. If they are excessively eroded they must be renewed. If the anodes deteriorate too rapidly, check the water quality.

• The water side of the device must be cleaned at least once a year; it is essential to avoid exces-sive contamination of the tubes. The hoods can be removed without depressurisation of the casing side. Increase the frequency of checks if operations in ports or other places with contami-nated seawater are protracted, in accordance with the requirements of the operator.

• The device must be subjected to an exterior visual inspection at more frequent intervals to iden-tify possible leaks or similar problems in good time. By means of the double loop closure leaks can be pinpointed and the relative magnitude can be estimated.

DisassemblyAdhere to this procedure for disassembly of the device:• Close all pipelines• Empty the device from the tube side. If you need to remove the tube core empty also the casing

side.• Remove the pipes from the tube side.• Remove hoods/covers. To perform this step loosen the 4 screws located at the joint between

dood/main body.

Tel. +39-049 8299-311 – Fax +39-049 8299-550 – www.ZF-Marine.com81

There are 4 fixing plates or washers between hood and cover; these must be returned to the same position at the time of reassembly. For this purpose check the mark on the flange of the main body.

• If disassembly is carried out without removing the tube core, first disassemble the hood/cover without fixing plates to ensure that the tube core is not dislodged. Now remove the fixing plates. This operation can be performed with the aid of a second set of fixing plates, or with other similar means.

Disassembly without removing the tube core:• Remove the O-rings from the external grooves of the tube plates and fix the tube core to the

main body with four screws and the four fixing plates in the middle groove of the tube plates. Using this method the tube side can be inspected and cleaned mechanically. The casing side remains pressurised.

Disassembly of the tube with removal of the tube core:• Remove the O-rings from the external grooves of the tube plates. The fixed position in relation

to the main body is marked on one of the tube plates. A mark “X” indicating the mid point is present on the front side of the tube plate and on the adjacent flange of the main body. Check the position of this symbol. Push the tube (using specific tools if necessary) sideways until the O-ring of the internal groove is visible. Remove the O-ring from the internal groove. Extract the tube core in the opposite direction. Carefully remove the tube core from the main body taking care not to damage the fins. As far as possible keep the tube core suspended by means of wide lifting webbing. Take care not to damage the O-ring seating grooves.

• When removing devices fixed in a vertical direction, always make sure that the tube core does not slip downwards once the fixing plates have been removed. It is good practice to have an extra set of fixing plates and start the disassembly operation from the part on which there are no fixing plates. In this case first of all fix the roll. After having removed the second hood, you can remove the roll (proceed with caution). At the time of reassembly you can use just one set of fixing plates (the set on the symbols side).

AssemblyTo assembly the unit perform the disassembly steps in reverse sequence. Take account also of the following considerations:• It is normal practice to use new O-rings and clean the grooves before fitting them.• Take note of the symbol to ensure the tube core is assembled correctly (X).• Take not of the symbol to assemble the fixing plates correctly (F).• The closing strips are located on the tube core side. Remove the strips only if damaged. When

inserting the tube core ensure that the closing strips have not been moved or twisted. Before assembling the tube core, grease the closing strips. The operating product can be used. The closing strips must ensure an efficient seal around the entire length of the tube core.

• Lubricate the O-rings with a suitable grease.• While inserting the tube plate in the closing location, ensure the O-rings are not severed.

The hoods/covers must be fitted in parallel on the tube plate and pushed uniformly onto the O-ring: ensure the O-ring is not severed during this operation.• With two-stroke devices arrange the plastic separation strip on the side of the hood with the two

connections. This done, install also the fixing plates from the same side.• When assembling the two-stroke hood ensure that the separation plate is fitted correctly.• Continue as described in “Operation”.

CleaningIn the presence of a small quantity of scaling, the tube can be cleaned mechanically. Disassemble the device as described in the disassembly chapter, without removing the tube core, and use a suitable nylon bristle brush to clean the tubes inside (do not use metal wire brushes). Now flush the unit with water. Never use force to prise out trapped deposits or large size debris.In the presence of trapped deposits, use a chemical system to clean the tube core. The proce-dure can be performed by flushing the tube when the device is assembled or by submerging it in chemical solution when disassembled.

This cleaning operation should be carried out exclusively by a specialised technician. Use exclu-sively suitable solvents. Construct the attached list to find the most suitable product. Analyse the material of the plastic separation strip and the O-rings when the device is assembled. The “Con-tacts” section of this manual contains a list of companies that handle products that are suitable in relation to the parts, or that offer complete cleaning services. If the eleventh letter of the type code is à “C” (e.g: KS12-BCN-821C L1000), this indicates that the tube core is coated. To prevent the corrosion damage of the tube core, it is internally coated in the tube and in the tube header plate. During disassembly of the roll and during cleaning procedures, tale care to ensure the coating is not damaged. Use exclusively nylon bristle cleaning brushes and cleaning products in compliance with the applicable regulations. If in doubt concerning a specific product, consult our maintenance department.

TroubleshootingEfficiency is too low! / oil outlet temperature is too high!• Check that all temperatures and materials comply with the project specifications.• Check that there is no foreign matter in the pipe or in the device, such as to create an obstruc-

tion.• Check that the tube core is correctly assembled; check the symbols.• Check that the plastic strips and fixing plates are correctly assembled in the two-stroke hood.• Check that air has been bled completely from all the compression chambers.• Check that the tube side or the casing side are not excessively fouled (with excessively dense

product deposits).• Check that no more than 10% of the tubes are clogged.

Leakages from the tubesIf you think there are leaks from the tubes, proceed as illustrated in the section concerning “disas-sembly without removing the tube core”. The casing part can remain pressurised. After having cleaned the tube plates you will be able to identify the leaking tube by the condition of the liquid

that comes out. Close both ends of the tube with conical plugs made of copper or hardwood. You can plug a maximum of 10% of the tubes without any significant loss of efficiency. It is possible to remove the defective tube.

Leaks from the rolled jointsIf you notice a leak from a rolled joint while checking for leaks from a tube, you can roll the part again by means of a special tool. Note however that this procedure should always be performed by specialised personnel. Since these defects are relatively uncommon, we recommend having the entire tube core checked at our works.

Leaks from the O-ringsIf you notice a leak between the hood/cover and the main body, this indicates that one of the O-rings of the tube plate is defective. The type of substance emerging identifies the groove of the tube plate in which the defect has occurred. If the defect is on the tube side, proceed as illustrated in the section concerning “disassembly without removing the tube core”. If the defect is from the side of the casing, proceed as described in the part relative to “disassembly with removal of the tube core”. In this case there is no need to remove the tube core completely from the main body. Assemble the O-ring as illustrated in the part relative to “Assembly”.

3. Standstill periods:

When the installation is at a standstill for a period of:• Less than two days

Water flow within range that on average complies with operation of the pump (see table)• More than two days

Water flow for minimum period of one hour• More than two weeks

The water circuit must be drained and flushed with fresh water.
