2. When the coolant level in the expansion tank do not drop any
more, disconnect the oil pressure switch.
While disconnecting the oil pressure switch, the remote control panel get a
„Oil pressure OK“ and the electrical colling water pump can be turned on and
off by switching the panel on and off.
3. Turn the remote control panel on and let the coolant pump run for at least 10 minutes.
4. Turn the remote control panel off, reconnect the oil pressure switch and fill up the coolant level at the expension
tank to max. Close the expansion tank.

Watercooled Exhaust System
By injecting the outlet seawater into the exhaust manifold, the exhaust gases are cooled and the noise emissions
from the exhaust system are reduced.
5.4.1 Installation of the standard exhaust system
The generator exhaust system must remain completely independent and separate from the exhaust system of any
other unit(s) on board. The exhaust hose has an inner diameter of 30mm. The water lock must be installed at the
lowest point of the exhaust system. An optional noise insulated water lock can also be installed. The exhaust hose
descends from the capsule to the water lock. Then the hose rises via the "goose neck" to the silencer (see drawing).
The goose neck must be vertical and sit preferably along the ship's keel centre line. The exhaust system must be
installed so that the back pressure inside the exhaust does not exceed 0.4 bar (6 psi) and total length does not
exceed 6m (20 ft.).
Exhaust diameter see Table 8.2.1, “Technical Data Generator
4000s SC + FC,” on page 124.
