Automatic Drain Cleaning System (ADCS)

Some of the benefits of the ADCS:

  • Fuel saving potential – by maintaining correct Pmax.
  • Cyl. LO. Saving potential – Enables safe reduction of oil feed rates.
  • Very fast sampling time when taking scrape down samples for liner wear monitoring. (All engine loads)
  • Improved safety/working environment/reduction of cleaning chemicals and diesel.
  • Significant savings in the number of man hours spend for manual cleaning.

Significant benefits

Financial benefits

  • Reduced SFOC (fuel consumption) up to 1,5% due to operation at correct high Pmax and higher mechanical efficiency.
  • Reduced consumption of Cyl. L.O. 5-16% – through optimized dosing based on reliable “real time” SDA samples.
  • Improved combustion – improved liner and piston condition.
  • Reduced total cost of ownership.

Environmental benefits

  • Significant improved safety and working environment for crew.
  • Significant savings on man hours spend for manual cleaning - in some cases up to 1000 h/year
  • Reduced (No) consumption of cleaning chemicals / materials or diesel.
  • Significant reduced C02 footprint.
  • No essential energy consumption.

Collection af SDA samples

  • Crew often struggle with blocking of sample valves and long sample collecting time.
  •  The drilled channel in engine frame and pipes need constant cleaning.
  •  Several cases shows significant sludge accumulation after only one week!
 

With ADCS - very fast collection of SDA samples giving “real time” and correct readings – giving the operator the right information to optimize lubrication and prevent scuffing incidents.

Free and unrestricted flow in engine Cyl. drain pipes:

  • Safe and fast detection of abnormal conditions as lube oil / cooling water leaks.
  • Fast collection of SDA samples giving “real time” and correct readings – providing the operator with the right information to optimize lubrication and prevent scuffing incidents.

Cleaner engine – less accumulation of solid sludge:

  • Reduced consumption of cyl. L.O. – through optimized dosing based on reliable “real time” SDA samples.
  • Less risk of scavenge fires.
  • Reduced wear on piston rod and stuffing box parts.
  • Less fouling of T/C turbine blades.
  • Less fouling of exhaust gas boiler.
  • Significant improved safety and working environment for crew.
  • Significant savings on man hours spend for manual cleaning - in some cases up to 1000 h/year
  • No clogging of sample valves.
  • Reduced (No) consumption of cleaning chemicals / materials or diesel.

Quality and environmental focus are core values in our work.
