Manual control of the common-rail injection system and the exhaust valve actuation is an option. This is
made possible by quick-acting solenoid valves.
In gas operation mode, low-load engine operation is possible.
The engine has optimised combustion and fuel consumption. This is made possible through the use of high-
efficiency fuel pumps which feed the high-pressure fuel rail and the adaptive pressure which is active at
lower engine power.
If contracted, fuel sharing is available with this engine.
Efficiently cooled piston crown. This is made possible by combined jet-shaker oil cooling.
If contracted, the Integrated Cylinder lubricant Auto Transfer (iCAT) unit is available as an option for auto
-
mated adaptability to a change in Base Number (BN) of the cylinder lubricating oil. This applies to engines
that operate on fuel oil with more than 0.10% sulphur m/m.
A high-efficiency cylinder lubrication with optimised cylinder lubricating oil consumption is available. This is
made possible by the Pulse Lubricating System (PLS).
The engine has a low-pressure gas admission. This is made possible through unique cylinder liners.
Effective gas pressure handling. This is made possible by the Integrated Gas Pressure Regulation (iGPR)
unit.
The whole engine can be controlled and operated electronically. This is made possible by the Flex system
(see
).
Standard data collection and monitoring system. This is known as the WinGD Integrated Digital Expert
(WiDE).
An engine integrated second order longitudinal vibration compensator is available. This is known as the In
-
tegrated ELectrical BAlancer (iELBA).
If contracted and if there is a twin-engine installation, then the Synchro-Phasing System (SPS) is available.
Tier III compliance in diesel mode is possible with a low-pressure Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR LP)
unit.
