First power on and sea trial
After installation of the engine in the engine compartment it is
necessary to make the first start up and the sea trial to check
the operation of all the parameters.
The checks of this paragraph ensure the customer the engine
safety and reliability. They must be made in good time before
the delivery of the engine to the customer, so to have time to
make the necessary adjustments or repairs.
Some of the checks to be made at this stage can be made dry;
in this case it is necessary to remove the propeller from the
lineshaft and make sure that the engine is able to intake and
discharge water in the sea water circuit.
Do not run the engine dry at speeds exceeding 1500rpm. Be
sure to monitor the refrigerant circuit temperature.
Remove the propeller during the engine dry
ignition.
In the case of dry ignitions, ensure the inflow of
water to the engine intake. Failure to comply with
this warning may lead to malfunction and engine
failure.
