Distance from adjacent intermediate/propeller shaft
Some machinery arrangements feature an intermediate shaft or propeller shaft running adjacent to engine.
To allow adequate space for engine inspections and maintenance there has to be sufficient free space
between the intermediate/propeller shaft and the engine. To enable safe working conditions the shaft has
to be covered. It must be noticed that also dimensions of this cover have to be taken into account when
determining the shaft distances in order to fulfil the requirement for minimum free space between the shaft
and the engine.
