15...30 minutes. For exact determination of the minimum capacity, the rules of the classification
societies must be followed.
8.3.2 Oil and water separator (3S01)
An oil and water separator should always be installed in the pipe between the compressor
and the air vessel. Depending on the operation conditions of the installation, an oil and water
separator may be needed in the pipe between the air vessel and the engine.
8.3.3 Starting air vessel (3T01)
The starting air vessels should be dimensioned for a nominal pressure of 3 MPa.
The number and the capacity of the air vessels for propulsion engines depend on the
requirements of the classification societies and the type of installation.
It is recommended to use a minimum air pressure of 1.8 MPa, when calculating the required
volume of the vessels.
The starting air vessels are to be equipped with at least a manual valve for condensate drain.
If the air vessels are mounted horizontally, there must be an inclination of 3...5° towards the
drain valve to ensure efficient draining.

1) Dimensions are approximate.
The starting air consumption stated in technical data is for a successful start. During start the
main starting valve is kept open until the engine starts, or until the max. time for the starting
attempt has elapsed. A failed start can consume two times the air volume stated in technical
data. If the ship has a class notation for unattended machinery spaces, then the starts are to
be demonstrated.
The required total starting air vessel volume can be calculated using the formula:
