f A TOGNUM GROUP BRAND larine Applications Ready for the next emissions stage: Further development of MTU Series 1163 for IMO II Christoph Fenske Senior Manager Application Center Marine, Naval Surface Craft Since the beginning of the 1980s, the MTU Series 1163 has been one of the most widely used engines in naval shipping. For compliance with IMO II an advanced version of the unit without exhaust treatment systems is to be launched. The future version will retain all the decisive engine characteristics of its predecessors that were so important to customers. Which means that reliability, high power density and optimum acceleration capabilities will remain the key features of the Series 1163. Lighter and more powerful than all comparable over the world - and anywhere where the emis- engines, the Series 1163 fast-running large-scale sion limits imposed by the International Maritime diesels have been a success story for close to Organization (IMO) have to be complied with. To 30 years. Developed for naval applications and ensure the engine continues to meet the require- later adapted for use in commercial vessels, the ments of the IMO II and IMO III regulations, MTU Series 1163s reliably and potently power ships all is upgrading the design of the Series 1163.

For its Meteoro Class BAM (Buques de Acción Maríti- ma) offshore patrol vessels, the Spanish Navy relies on Development aims Despite the strict emission restrictions, the efficiency of the engines is not to be compro- mised. On the contrary - they must demonstra- te the same qualities as the previous version in terms of the key engine characteristics such as reliability, high power density and rapid accelera- tion. And they must do so using not more, but substantially less fuel than before. The interfac- es are to remain virtually unchanged so that clients can continue to use the engine in...

Low Pressure Fuel Pump High Pressure Pump Fuel Filters Injector with Integrated Common Rail Fuel Injection The principle of common rail fuel injection is based on a high pressure accumulator system fed by one or more special high pressure fuel pumps. It provides the electro- nically-controlled injectors with a constant supply of fuel throughout the injection period regardless of engine speed. This arrangement allows independent control of all injec- tion parameters, which can be flexibly adapted to suit every set of operating conditions. Parameters included are timing, course and duration...
