range of products for marine applications comprises cargo pumping systems, transportable pumping system and anti-heeling pumping systems.










ROSS CONTROLS® Literature & Support -
Useful section for understanding how pneumatic valves and controls systems work. What may not be so well known is the science behind the valves.




Lars Josefsson's personal website
is useful to technicians and engineers using marine steam boilers and heavy fuel oil burners.
Ex. chief-engineer in the merchant marine and almost twenty years with a boiler maker, starting up marine steam boiler plants and designing control systems for marine boilers as well as control systems for exhaust gas heat recovery systems for diesel power plants.




Carlyle refrigeration and air conditioning compressors.
It’s simple and beautiful website.
You can find all necessary information to buy new compressor and if you already operate one. Good technical library includes Electronic Drawings, Service Guides, Startup and Troubleshooting Guides, OEM Bulletins, “Service Parts” - Includes Model # Significance Charts, Exploded View Diagrams, and Parts Lists etc.



This site is for Russian speaking engineers. You find many technical data for diesel generating sets on page Technical Documentation for the following makers: SDMO, Cummins, Wilson, Caterpillar, AKSA, Gesan, Pramac, Geko, FPT with the various diesel engines – Volvo Penta, MTU, CAT, Perkins etc.




Website http://marinediesels.co.uk
is constructed, maintained and operated by an ex sea going Marine Engineer who is a Fellow of the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology and a senior lecturer at a UK Maritime Academy teaching Motor Engineering Knowledge to Chief Engineer and Degree Level.
Learn about problems which can be encountered such as scavenge fires and crankcase explosions, and how to prevent them. Find out how the engine power is calculated using the Mean Indicated Pressure, discover how the engine starts using compressed air and how Turbocharging works.



Let’s give our sons and grandsons elementary knowledge about see and marine professions!
The best site what I knew is Marine Insight (An Inside View of the Marine World).
They find simple replies on all questions there. Some articles are interesting and for professionals. (See Articles in the Main Engine Category.

1907 B&W Diesel 150th Anniversary Startup - Video
A Burmeister & Wain air-blast injection diesel engine from 1907 located in a water pumping station at Ålborg, Denmark being started in 1996 for the 150th anniversary of MAN B&W Diesel A/S. At the time it was the oldest known B&W diesel to operate. It is very similar in design to the engine successfully built and operated in 1897 by Dr-Ing. Rudolf Diesel.

Because it is an air-blast injection engine, compressed air from 45-62 bar (about 650-900 psi) is used to do the actual fuel injection. Fuel and blast air is delivered to the top of the injector by separate pumps, and when the cam opens up the injector, the very high air pressure at the injector forces the fuel down into the injection nozzle and into the highly heated air inside the combustion chamber. The blast air is actually delivered by an external air line to the engine during startup, and is disconnected when the engine is running to allow the internal air pump to take over.
