Oil cooler, reverse gear IRM 350A
Oil cooler, reverse gear
The reverse gear oil cooler is installed on a mounting
on the right side of the reverse gear. The cooler is con-
nected to the seawater system. The seawater passes
through the pipes in the cooling core and draws heat
off from the oil which passes between the pipes.
Oil cooler, engine
The lubricating oil transports heat from the high tem-
perature parts in the engine and equalizes the temper-
ature differences within the engine. Heat is removed
from the lubricating oil in the oil cooler. This keeps the
oil temperature lower at high engine load and speeds.
This reduces engine wear as the oil’s lubricating prop-
erties are impaired if the oil temperature gets too high.
Lubricating oils of lower quality are most sensitive to
high temperatures.
The engine’s oil cooler is on the left side just above the
oil filter. The engine oil circulates inside the cooler as-
sembly while the coolant passes between the cell
plates. The cooler is connected to the freshwater sys-
tem.
