Analysis of oils and equipment for the maintenance of marine motors

Editorial Interempresas07/05/2013
The control of the state of the machinery, based in the analysis of oils, has turned into a practice if no important, compulsory in the maritime industry. An effective program of analysis of oils will keep active such like motors, boxes of change, hydraulics systems, turbines, compressesors and generators, as well as any another machinery lubricated in operation, when reducing unexpected failures and costly stops no programmed.

The analysis of fuel bunker also is a critical application when the turbines and some types of motors diesel employ like the main half of propulsion. The levels of pollution of the liquid fuel that goes in to the combustor of a turbine to gas or engine diesel have to be extremely basses to avoid corrosion by high temperature and pollution of the system of fuel.

At the same time, each one of the main manufacturers of turbines diesel and to gas have limits of strict pollution that they have to fulfil to end to fulfil with the conditions of guarantee. The responsibility to ensure the fulfillment usually recae in the owner. Thus the analysis of fuels is compulsory when it receives the fuel, and if there is available systems of treatment, before and after the same.

Spectro Inc. has supplied analytical instrumentation to the marine industry all over the world to complement programs of analysis of existent oils. The nature of this industry does that it was impractical to send samples to laboratories in earth, and therefore a capacity of analysis of oil and/or fuel can be a previous requirement.

Between his customers finds , among others, Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, Queen Mary II, Princess Cruise Lines, US Navy, Brazilian Nautics Commission, Wartsila Diesel, GE, Alstom or the Spanish Navy.

Spectro Has of two equipment that, by his portability, are adapted for direct application in the predictive maintenance on board of fuselages and access in situ to define the own actions of the maintenance. SpectroVisc Q3000 and FluidScan Q1000 are two portable equipment, robust and simple that use technicians applied to the detection anticipated of failures of the machinery.

The FluidScan Q1000 is a spectrometer GO that it determines the degradation and pollution of the lubricante, detecting the oxidation and nitración, the SO and TBN, the sulfatación, Water, carbonilla, glycol, wrong mix of lubricantes and the deposition of additives (ZDDP). In biodiésel allows to analyse the acidity, ? Water and the glicerina. It weighs 1,4 kg.

By his part, the SpectroVisc Q3000 is a viscosímetro portable that measures the viscosidad cinematic of 10 to 350 cts (to 40 °C). It does not need solvents, neither controls of density or thermometers. It can analyse all type of samples: dark, with carbonilla, transparent, needing a volume of sample of 60 µL (aprox. 3-4 drops). It is compatible with the software Spectropack for tendencies and weighs only 1,8 kg.
