Main lubricating oil system components
Lubricating oil pump
Positive displacement screw pumps with built-in safety valves, or centrifugal
pumps (for pump capacities refer to
):
Lubricating oil cooler
Type: Positive displacement
screw pump
The flow rate is to be within a tolerance of 0 to +10% of
the GTD value, plus:
- back-flushing flow of automatic self-cleaning filter, if such
filter is installed
- oil flow to torsional vibration damper, if such damper is
installed
Type: Centrifugal pump
The flow rate is to be within a tolerance of -10 to +10% of
the GTD value, plus:
- back-flushing flow of automatic self-cleaning filter, if such
filter is installed
- oil flow to torsional vibration damper, if such damper is
installed
Delivery head
The final delivery head to be determined is subject to the
actual piping layout.
