Watercooled Exhaust System
By injecting the outlet raw water into the exhaust manifold, the exhaust gases are cooled and the
noise emissions from the exhaust system are reduced.
5.5.1 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 40mm
(1.6") (Panda 14000 and above approx. 50mm). 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 section 8.2, “Technical Data Engine,” on page 117.
