Cylinder Lubrication

Pulse Jet Cylinder Lubricating System

 

 

WinGD's Pulse Jet system optimises piston running by providing a homogeneous lubricant distribution on the cylinder liner surface.

Regular injections at minimal lubricant feed rate enable operational expenses at the lowest possible level.

The Pulse Jet system ensures safe lubrication and acid-neutralisation for piston rings and the cylinder liner running surface. Spray angles and electronically controlled injection timing are tailored to achieve homogeneous lubricant distribution. Zig-zag-shaped grooves on several levels provide further distribution of the freshly injected lubricant in the upper stroke area. Specifically designed piston rings further support the oil film conditioning.

Cylinder Lubricating Oils

Using the Pulse Jet System with WinGD-validated lubricants is the prerequisite to achieving extended time between overhauls of piston rings and cylinder liners with outstanding reliability and engine availability. By applying regular laboratory and on-board analysis of piston underside drain oil samples, lubricant consumption can be reduced to the minimum for the engine's specific operating conditions. Easily understandable documentation gives guidance for selecting and using the right cylinder lubricant for diesel, gas, and all other emerging marine fuels.
