General description

The Regulateurs Europa series 1I00-4G range of governors are of the centrifugal flyweight
type and operate through a hydraulic servo mechanism. The oil reservoir and pump for
this servo mechanism is incorporated within the governor housing.
A spring drive is incorporated in the flyweight system to assist in damping any cyclic
variations in the drive between the prime mover and the governor, which should always be
driven by the crankshaft as near a nodal point as possible and through the smallest train of
gears.

The hydraulic system consists of a gear-type pump and a spring loaded accumulator which
also functions as a relief valve in the event of the oil pressure exeeding 150 Ib/in2 (10
bar). For governors requiring a work capacity of 25 ft.lbf, 34 ft.lbf or 40 ft.lbf the relief
pressure is 250 Ib/in2 (17 bar).
Two pairs of check valves are fitted to the oil pump, but according to the direction of
rotation of the governor, only one pair will be in operation. The other pair of valves being
held on their seats by oil pressure within the unit. Free space within the governor casing
provides the oil reservoir. An oil level sight glass is fitted to the governor casing. The oil
level should be kept within the red marked circle engraved in the sight glass.

An oil cooler can be fitted for use in conditions where high ambient temperatures exist
(above 50 oc) in particular with 25, 34 and 40 ft. Ibf. governors.

The power piston is of the differential area type, giving double-acting control. The
governor is capable of providing its stalled work capacity over a speed range between a
minimum of 180 revs/min. and a maximum of 1600 revs/min. The speed control and
shut-down mechanisms are varied to suit different applications. The speed setting device is
available as a lever, handwheel, pneumatic or electrically motorised control. The
pneumatic and electrically moterised controls provide remote fine adjustments of speed
change for use when paralleling engines. Drive from the motor to the speed control shaft
of motorised governor is through a clutch designed to slip when the speed limit stops are

reached, thus protecting the motor. Also when operating the clutch manually, the clutch
will give full protection for overloading the speedsetting mechanism. The shutdown valve
may be operated by hand or by a solenoid in which case the solenoid operation may be
arranged

for' energise

Speed droop characteristics are obtained by mechanical feedback from the power piston
to pilot valve. The droop is adjustable between 0 and 10 %. These governors are designed

for general purpose governing and are suitable for AC./D.C. generating

CHAPTER 7

Operating principles

(See Operating Schematic Drawing)

load Increase

Isochronous Setting

Any increase in load will cause the speed of the prime mover to fall and the flyweights (31)
will then move inwards because the force exerted by the speederspring (37) will be greater
than the centrifugal force acting on the flyweights. The pilot valve (29) moves downwards,
permitting high-pressure oil (red) to flow through the control ports in the governor rotor
(28) to the top of the power piston (13). The increase of oil pressure forces it downwards
against the constant high pressure on the underside and the output shaft (9) is turned, to
increase the fuel supply to the engine.
This downward movement of the power piston is communicated to the feedback piston
(16) via its strut (14), driving out the oil (yellow) from under the piston into the

compensation chamber, displacing the compensation piston (18) and deflecting its springs
(17 and 19). The increased pressure of the feedback system oil acts on the bottom of the
pilot valve (29) and forces it upwards against the out-of-balance force exerted by the
speeder spring. As the pilot valve moves towards the lapped position it cuts off the highpressure oil supply to the top of the power piston. At the same time the increase of
pressure in the feedback system causes a flow of oil past the adiustable restrictor screw

(20) to drain

until the steady state conditions are achieved, i.e. when the feedback
has
returned to atmospheric, the forces acting on the pilot valve will have
pressure
reached equilibrium and the governor will again be running at its set speed.

Load Decrease

Isochronous Setting

Any decrease in load will cause the speed of the prime mover to rise. The flyweights then
overcome the force exerted by the speeder spring and move the pilot valve upwards. This
opens the control oil port to drain and the power piston rises due to the constant high
pressure beneath it. The feedback piston follows the movement of the power piston
causing the compensation piston to be displaced (inwards) and deflecting the
compensation springs. The feedback oil pressure is now at below atmospheric and the
pilot valve is drawn downwards against the out-of-balance force exerted by the flyweights.
As the valve moves towards the lapped position, it closes the control port and terminates
the movement of the power piston. At the same time, the decrease in pressure of the
feedback oil causes a flow from drain, past the adjustable restrictor screw and into the
feedback system untill the pressure equalises and steady state conditions are achieved.

Load Increase

With Droop

When the droop adjusting knob is set to zero, the centre of the pin in the droop lever (35)
and the centre of the output shaft (9) are in line. Under these conditions the loading on
the speeder spring is not affected by the movement of the output shaft. If, however, the
droop adjusting knob is set to give droop, the linkage is adjusted (through rack and pinion
mechanism) so that the axis of the droop link pin (35) and the output shaft (9) are no
longer in line. Under these conditions, as the power piston moves down on the increase
of load, thus rotating the output shaft and lifting the droop lever (1 ), the loading on the
speeder spring (37) is reduced, so providing droop. Droop has a stabilising effect and is
essential for stable parallel operation of engines. Note that the hydraulic feedback as

described above

is still active in

Load Decrease

With Droop

droop mode, ensuring fully stable operation.

As the load on the prime mover is decreased its speed rises and the power piston moves
upwards (to decrease the supply of fuel) and rotates the output shaft. This lowers the
droop lever (1), increasing the load on the speeder spring (37) and thus raising the

equilibrium speed of the governor. The further the axis of the droop lever pin (35)
moved away from the output shaft, the greater the droop provided.

is

Speed Adjustment
Variation of speed is accomplished by increasing or decreasing the load on the speeder
spring through the speed control shaft (6) and speed control lever (3). The speed control
shaft may be actuated by manual control, electric motor, pneumatic controller, electromagnetic servo controller, stepper motor or synchronous motor.

Shutdown

push button (11) or electrically a solenoid (energised

to run or energised to stop) or pneumatically operating on pilot valve (32). When
operated, the shutdown valve (15) cut off the control oil to the power piston and connect
the top of the piston to drain so that the oil pressure under the piston pushes it rapidly to
zero fuel, aided by the external return spring if fitted. For safety it is strongly recommended that the engine be fitted with a totally independent overspeed trip arrangement,

Speed Response
The speed response of the governor depends on the acceleration rate of the prime mover.
The acceleration rate again depends on the inertia, speed and power of the prime mover.
The governor, in turn, is matched to these variables by selecting suitable flyweight I
speederspring and compensation piston and spring combinations. The restrictor, however,
permits some control over the speed of response. Care should be taken while making
adjustments to the restrictor, as too large an opening will cause instability (hunting) and,
too small an opening will make the governor sluggish.

Adjustments

Adjustments should only be carried out whilst the oil

Parallel Operation

as 3 % but normally a droop of 3.5 % to 5 % complying with the International Standard

Class A 1 is used. (or BS 5514: Part 3).

2.

The linear relationship between governor output and prime mover output must be

3.

The various levers between governor and fuel-injection pump (all units) must be at
the same angle to ensure identical (synchronous) responses.

Should it be necessary to run in parallel with other engines having different types of
governing, it is possible to adjust droop whilst the engine is running, to load share with the

other engines.

CHAPTER 8

Installation and trouble shooting

General
Care must be taken to ensure that the platform, on which the governor is mounted, is
perfectly flat and absolutely square to the driving shaft. It is important that no side loading
nor bending movement is applied to the governor drive. Any misalignment between the
drive shaft and driving member will cause an oil leakage between the drive shaft and oil
seal and in severe cases even cause broken drive shafts.
Correct choice of drive gear ratio is most important as it is essential that the governor runs
at or near its nominal speed (1500 Rpm) when the prime mover is at full speed, otherwise

performance will be affected. This condition is particularly important in marine

applications where a prime mover operates over a wide speed range.

The gears must be free from any imperfections; run-out of gears should not exceed
0,004 mm per cm. The governor will pick up any such errors and 'jiggle' of the governor
terminal (output) shaft will result. The backlash in the driving gears should be set at a
minimum of 0,05 mm. Under no circumstances should this clearance exceed 0,1 5 mm.

Control Linkage

The linkage between the governor output shaft and the fuel-injection pump should be
designed to the following criteria: (I)
Correct ratio (III) Low frictional losses
(II)
No backlash (IV) Linearity

I Correct Ratio
The geometry of the linkage should be designed so that 60 % (i.e. 300) of the output shaft
rotation is used for moving the fuel-injection pump/control valve between the 'no load"
and the 'full load' positions.
II Backlash

Backlash should be kept to a minimum as it will create a dead band in which speed
changes may take place without correction. In addition backlash may cause instability if
the governor droop control is set to zero, (isochronous operation)
Backlash may be minimised by using linkages having comparatively long travels. A given
amount of backlash, expressed as a percentage of the total travel, will then be much
smaller. A return spring should be fitted to the control linkage. This spring should be fitted
to the end of the linkage at the position furthermost from the governor and should act to
reduce fuel supply to the prime mover.

12

This spring will ensure that instant response to governor movements occurs by taking up
any slack in the control linkages and that a 'fail safe' condition exists. The maximum
spring loading should not exceed 25 % of the work capacity of the governor and the

spring rate should be low enough to prevent

20 % over the full range of governor travel.

rotation per engine revolution, which are available to move the fuel rack, decrease
depending upon the number of cylinders. The absence of double acting spring links will
result in an excessive stalled work capacity requirement of the governor and reduce
transient performance.
It is recommended that the linkage between the governor and fuel rack is equiped with
spring link which will be activated only when the fuel rack is jammed or blocked by the

maximum power stop of the fuel rack.

nearity

The geometry of the fuel-injection pump linkage is normally arranged so, that the increase
in power from "no load" to "full load" is, as nearly as possible, proportional to the
movement of the governor output lever throughout its range (from position 'two' to
position' eight'). If this is not so Le. if a small output movement at low load has
proportionally greater effect on power output than a similar movement at greater load

Filling with oil

After installation the housing must be filled to the indicated oil level mark on the sight
glass fitted at the side of the governor casing, i.e. within the red engraved circle.
Overfilling of the governor may result in poor governing.

Type and Grade of Oil

general guide the oil used in the governor should be a good quality mineral oil.
It should
have good oxidation stability and should have anti-foaming and anti-deposits
properties. The use of high TBN oils (greater than 15) in governors is undesirable as the
oil additives can cause seal hardening. Marine engine oils for engines using gas oil or

The R.E. 1100 governor series has been designed to operate using a standard SAE 30
mineral oil for most applications. However, should the ambient temperature be constantly
below 10 oC, then it is advisable to use oil with a SAE 20 value. Likewise, if the ambient
temperature is constantly above 40 oC, then SAE 40 is recommended.

The oil should have the following characteristics:

compressibility in

the governor.

(b)

is

Oil level
In order to prevent any unwanted substances from entering the governor unit, it is essential
to clean the area surrounding the filler neck prior to adding oil. The governor should be

at its normal working temperature and filled through a fine mesh filter, until the level
reaches the centre of the red circle engraved in the sightglass.

DO NOT OVERFill OR UNDERFill

as this will result in poor governor performance.

A governor that is being filled for the first time or one which has just undergone repairs
may require to have the level rechecked soon after it has been started up. This is due to
the filling of oil passages which will lower the level. Should it be necessary to remove
excess oil from the governor due to overfilling, anyone of the two drain plugs (magnetic
plugs) in the base of the unit may be used for this purpose.

Oil cooler
In some cases the governor may be fitted with an oil cooler which is mounted on the
installed where the governor is constantly operating in high
casing. These units

operating temperature.

ensure that the correct voltage is supplied.

IV)

Start and run the engine unit in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
When the engine is being started for the first time since refitting the governor, slight
erratic governing may be expected. This will be eliminated after a few minutes

when the air trapped in the hydraulic system has been automatically purged.
Subsequent starting operations should not experience this problem because of the
unique 'self bleeding' action.

Setting the Minimum Speed Stop

The prime mover and governor must be at normal working temperature. Reduce the
prime mover's speed to the desired minimum speed level by means of the speed setting
control of the governor. Adjust the minimum speed stop screw to just touch the minimum
stop lever. Tighten the locknut. Increase the prime mover's speed and then reduce speed
until the lever comes against the stop screw again.

Check that the setting is correct.

Setting the Maximum Speed Stop

The prime mover and governor must be at normal working temperature. Set the prime
mover's speed at the desired maximum level at full load and adjust the maximum speed
stop until it touches the stop lever. Tighten the locknut. By means of the speed setting
control, reduce the prime mover's speed and then increase it again until the lever comes
against the stop screw. Check that the prime mover speed and load are correct.

Upward I Downward Range

The range of maximum possible upward and downward adjustment of the speed should
be 2,5 % above the setting corresponding to the declared power, as a percentage of the
declared speed. (see setting parameters, item 5.1, 1 SO 3046: Part IV).
It should be noted that the set speed of a prime mover in cold condition is higher
compared with the setting when the prime mover is hot, due to the thermal expansion of
all castings and linkages of both governor and prime mover. We therefore recommend

speed stops to be set at 1 % above (and I % below) the required settings at normal
working temperature of the prime mover. In particular when running in parallel, an
unequal setting of speed stops may jeopardize the load share performance.

16

Finding the Adjusting the Permanent Speed Droop

The prime mover and governor must be at normal working temperature. Set the prime
mover to run at the specified speed at full load. Throw off the load and note the new
steady speed. The speed droop can be calculated from the following formula:

Speed Droop in %

(No Load Speed

Full load speed)

X I

Full Load Speed

00

To vary the droop, slacken locking nut of droop adjusting knob in centre of knob and turn
knob to decrease or increase the droop. Tighten the nut after each operation. Be careful
not to turn the knob beyond the zero droop position into the negative droop zone (less
than zero). Negative droop will introduce instability, which could be rather severe.

FINDING

FAULT
Hunting

'Hunting' is best described as a rhythmic change in speed with the amplitudes above and
below set speed. The frequency of these changes are normally around 1 Hz.

Check the fuel-injection pump linkage for backlash or friction. Ensure that the linkage
that minimum 60 % of the output shaft's total movement is used from
ratio is correct,
i.e.

'no load' to 'full load'.

Hunting at 'no load' may result from defective injectors causing the engine to 8-stroke (or
4-stroke in the case of a two stroke engine).

The stripping bench should be clean and should be covered with a zinc or linoleum top.
Two large washing baths should be provided together with ample supplies of cleaning
fluid (paraffin, Lead-free petrol etc.).
Before any dismantling is attempted it is usually desirable to remove the governor from the

engine.

Chapter 1

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The basic governor (base, body, rotor, casing, shut-down) consists of those components
of the governor which are normally common to all 11 OO/4G series governors.
The governor base provides a base for the governor body and casing and also houses the
drive shaft which transmits drive from the prime mover to the rotor shaft.

Oilways in the base connect the compensation piston and springs to the feedback system
and governor pilot valve.

The drive shaft is carried in a ball bearing; splines formed at its upper and mesh with
internal splines formed in the oil pump driving gear. The shaft may be machined to
provide either a serrated drive or a keyed drive.
Various drive shaft types are available to match the engine gearbox.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Chapter 1

Description

The governor body forms a housing for the power piston, oil pump and flyweight / rotor
drive. The body is drilled to provide oilways between the oil pump, pilot valve / rotor
assembly and power piston.
The oil pump drive (113) and idler gear (110) run in plain bores. Splines formed internally
in drive gear (113) provide the drive coupling between the drive shaft and governor rotor.
Two sets of ball-type check-valves are fitted to the pump. One set only being used,
dependent upon direction of rotation of the governor.
The power piston (104), of the differential area type, is giving double acting control. The
power piston is connected to the governor internal linkage at its upper end and transmits
movement to the feedback piston (115) via strut (116) at its lower end.

Operation

Oil under

pressure is

supplied to the pilot valve via connecting oilways and

ports in the

rotor. Dependant upon load, the prime mover will either increase or decrease speed
causing the flyweights to move outwards or inwards, thus raising or lowering the pilot valve
and causing lands formed on the pilot valve to lap or open connecting ports in the rotor
body. This change of pilot valve position will cause the power piston to rise or fall also

transmitting movement to the feedback piston attached to

feedback piston will be related to the pilot valve.

Description

The assembly is located in the governor body. The rotor and flyweights assembly comprises
a rotor, pilot valve and a pair of flyweights. The rotor is splined at its lower end to connect
through the driving oil pump gear to the governor drive shaft. At the lowest end of the
rotor at the end of the axial drilling in the sleeve, is a small port for the feedback oil.
NOTE: B

The rotor and pilot valve (205) are

matched pair and should therefore not

The pilot valve (205) is of the bobbin type and is assembled in the bore of the rotor (205).
The control land has clean, sharp edges to mate with the control port in the rotor. Two
guide lands are also formed on the pilot valve, the edges of these should be slightly
radiused. At its upper end, the pilot valve carries thrust race (204), spring carrier (203)

and nut (202). Special extended stem (221)

is

supplied for those governors provided with

an output position limitation system.

The flyweight assembly comprises flyweights (209), mounted on spindles (208) and
running in needle-roller bearings (210). The spindles are secured in flyweight carrier (219)
with starlocks (206). Ball race (214) is assembled in the rotor housing (205) and locates
vane damper (212) which is secured to the flyweight carrier with screws (217). Capscrews
(207) and spring washers (216) are fitted to carrier (219) to act as flyweight stops.

It is

essential that only the correct capscrews are fitted as stops; the length of

these capscrews is

flyweight carrier. It is retained in position by grubscrew (218). Segments are assembled
round the ball bearing and are secured by capscrews. A cover plate (211) is fitted over the
Drive spring

Operation
Because of the flyweight system is designed to respond rapidly to small speed changes, the
governor will attempt to govern cyclic irregularities in the drive unless these are damped
out.

by driving the flyweight assembly through the rotor drive spring

(213) and vane damper (212). The damping action is obtained by oil passing from the
high pressure supply port into the rotor head, by-passing the guide lands of the pilot valve

This condition is obtained

filling the free space between the vane arms and the fixed segments with oil.
The drive from the prime mover is transmitted to the flyweights via rotor (205) and spring
drive assembly (213 and 212). Any changes in prime mover speed, causing a change in
the centrifugal force exerted by the flyweights in opposition to the loading of the governor

speeder spring, will raise or lower the pilot valve in the rotor bore.

With any increase of speed above the set speed, the pilot valve will be raised and its
control land will open the control port to allow oil to flow from the power piston to drain.
Conversely, any reduction in speed will cause the flyweights to move inwards, and under
unfluence of the speeder spring, the pilot valve will move downwards, allowing the control
land to open the control oil port to admit

high pressure oil to the power piston.

GENERAL DISCRIPTION

(Use Fig. * A 1 *, *C2*, *E* simultaneously)

The casing assembly (Fig. IV) is secured to the governor drive base assembly (Fig. I) at its
lower end and the speed setting mechanism forms a cover (Fig. VI) at its upper end. Within
the governor casing are the governor flyweight/rotor governor power piston (Fig II).
The shutdown mechanism (Fig. V) is mounted on a detachable plate fitted to the governor
casing, the shutdown housing (538) being secured to the governor body).
The casing encloses the accumulator piston (360) and spring (372) which acts as a releif
valve in the oil system, the piston being closed in the casing by plug (358). With the drive
base secured at its lower end, the casing (345) forms a reservoir for the operating oil, the
level being indicated by a sight glass (365) fitted into the casing wall.

The output shaft (325) is carried in bushes (328) which are carried in bush sleeve (329).
The power piston lever assembly (322) which is clamped to the output shaft by capscews
(319) transmits the torque, exerted by the power piston, through key (326) to an external
lever, fitted to the output shaft. Link (307), connects output shaft to droop lever (302). The
droop lever is connected to the upper spring carrier (303) by pin (301), washer (304) and
split pin (305).
The droop mechanism, carry a droop adjusting rack (311) and associated components
(312 to 315) in output lever (322). The rack assembly meshing with shaft (335) passing
through droop scale shaft (336) which is carried in bushes (328) and sleeve (329). Knob
(339) controls the amount of droop and is splined to shaft (335). The droop lever (302) is
connected to the speed control shaft (350) through a swivel pin (334) with washer (304)
and splitpin (305) by lever (343). The speed stop levers (351) are splined to one end of

speed control shaft (350) and retained to the shaft by circlip (352). The governor
maximum and minimum speed is controlled by stop screws (347) and locking nuts (346).

SHUT-DOWN MECHANISM

SOLENOID OPERATED

ENERGISED TO SHUT-DOWN

GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Chapter 1
Description

The solenoid operated shut-down mechanism is mounted on a plate fitted to one side of
the governor casing. The mechanism is designed to be energised to move the pilot valve

(535) to the

stop position on receipt of a shut-down signal to the prime mover. Provision is

also made to bring the prime mover to rest by operating the manually operated shut-down

knob mounted on the plate.

The mechanism comprises a bracket-mounted solenoid (518) mounted to a plate (512)

secured to the governor casing with capscrew (503) and copper washers (504). Also
forming part of the mechanism is a manually operated push button override mechanism
which when operated, transmits movement to pilot valve and sleeve assembly (537) fitted
to shutdown housing (538) and secured to the governor body by capscrews (540) and
spring washers (545).
Oilways formed in the shut-down housing connect with ports formed in sleeve (537) which
are closed by lands on pilot valve (535).Contact between pilot valve and solenoid stem is
maintained by spring (536). When the solenoid is de-energised, pilot valve (535) is held
against its stop

(534) by return spring (536).

Operation
(See the coloured drawing as well).
With the solenoid de-energised, high pressure oil from the oil pump passes through the
pilot valve (see item 32, coloured scheme) and holds the shut-down valve (15) in the
"open" position against the action of its return spring (just below item 15).
In this position, the shut-down valve

(15) permits

oil

(blue line) to flow freely between the

rotor assembly and the top of the power piston.

When solenoid is energised, pilot valve (32) is moved from the "run" position where it was
held by spring (33) to the shut-down position. This movement of the pilot valve cuts off the
supply of high pressure oil to the shut-down valve (see item 15 of coloured scheme) and
releases oil above the valve to drain (into green just below item 32).
With the sudden loss of oil pressure on the valve, its return spring moves item 15 to open
the control line (blue) from the power piston to drain (green) and shuts of the line (blue)

from the rotor assembly. The power piston then moves upwards due to the pressure (red)
beneath it and shuts down the prime mover.

IMPORTANT:
In most of the cases, the solenoid mounting plate (512) will have been doweled to the
governor housing. Also the solenoid mounting (529) should have dowels and if not, it is

recommended to do so.
The solenoid socket assembly (507) has three pins. Two of them have red coloured wires
and they are connected to the solenoid. The third wire is white and is connected to the
governor "earth". In particular when 11 OV DC or 220V DC solenoids are used, the
"earth" of the plug (508) should be wired as well, as they otherwise represent a potential

danger to personnel.
The solenoids will need

DC supply. They will not function if AC

MOTORISED SPEED SETTING MECHANISM

(SERIESWOUND)

GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Chapter 1

Description

1.

2.

The motorised speed setting mechanism is designed primarily for use in

applications where remote control of prime mover speed is desirable, i.e.
applications where speed is controlled from a distance.

in

The mechanism is mounted on top of the governor top cover and comprises a
totally enclosed gear/motor unit transmitting drive through a spring loaded
clutch to the speed setting lever via internal governor linkage. A handwheel is

incorporated

in the

mechanism for manual control of the prime mover set

speed.

3.

Seals are fitted to prevent the ingress of dirt and foreign matter into the

governor.

Operation
1

On receipt

of

signal from

remote control position, the electric motor will

rotate in either clockwise or anticlockwise direction to transmit movement to

shaft (612) causing block (622) to be raised or lowered. The horns formed on

block

carrier (303).

clockwise direction will cause the prime

mover to increase speed, whilst rotation in an anticlockwise direction will
decrease speed.
Rotation of the handwheel

in

Installation

1.

The motorised speed setting mechanism is fitted to the governor and adjusted
before leaving the factory. The only installation is that the electrical supply be
connected, making certain the voltage corresponds with the motor supplied and

that the terminals are wired as per the wiring diagram. (See Fig. VI *C1 *).

68

Maintenance
1.

Due to the totally enclosed nature and design of the speed setting motor it will
require very little routine maintenance under normal working conditions.
However, after a period of one year or 5000 hours of use, it is advisable to
check brushes and commutator for wear. The motor should be completely
replaced when the governor unit is being overhauled, normally after 20.000
hours. This repair work should be undertaken by a qualified engineer who is

familiar with this type of equipment and the associated safety procedures.
2.

The clutch assembly is contained within the handwheel knob (607). Driving
clutch plate (610) is machined in centre, to engage with the square of the motor
Igear unit output shaft and positioned inside the upper end of the speed control
shaft (612). A cork washer

(611)

is

fitted underneath the driving clutch plate

(610). Spring (609) exerts pressure on the clutch plate and is held compressed
by the cover (606). The spring force is not adjustable. The cork washer should
not be fitted dry. Oil or grease should be used to reduce some of the friction.
3.

The speed control shaft (612) is carried in bearing (618) fitted into bearing
housing (616). Capscrews (604) secure shaft (612) and housing (616) to cover
fitted to prevent end float of the
bearing. Bearing (618)
held on the speed control shaft by E-clip (619), circlip (620) and disc spring
(614). The lower portion of shaft (612) is threaded to carry speed control shaft
block (622), which engage the horns formed on the block, in the speed setting
lever, thus causing the speed setting linkage to move upwards or downwards.

(628). Spacers (617) are

is

Seals (613) and (601) are fitted to prevent the ingress of dirt and foreign matter
into the governor.

Type of Motor

Make Groschopp, 24V D.C. PM Motor.

69

IMPORTANT NOTES
Governors having 220/240V motors or 11 0/120V motors should use an earth
connection.
Electric motors, having brushes, and being used for parallel operation (i.e. a load sharing
system), should normally require little maintenance. However, if they are used in
conjunction with close frequency control equipment, then the use of synchronous motors
(brushless motors) is highly recommended.

All governors are leaving our works with the speed setting mechanism set at maximum
governor speed. The tension of spring (201) on top of the rotor assembly pushes the
assembly down to the body, thus preventing the rotor splines to slip out the driving gear

(113), which may occur as

result of rough transport.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

1.1

INTRODUCTION
High temperatures, in excess of 200C that occur on bearing surfaces under initial failure conditions,
can lead to a rapid generation of oil vapour. When the hot vapour contacts the relatively cooler
atmosphere of the crankcase it condenses into a fine mist, with typical particle sizes of around 0.5 to 5
microns in diameter. When the density of these particles reaches between 30 to 50 mg/l (Milligrams
per litre), depending upon the type of oil, an explosive condition exists.

Figure 1: Engine Areas of Failure

A fire or explosion needs three constituents: fuel, oxygen and an ignition source. Remove one of these
and no explosion will occur. Similarly, within the crankcase, the three constituents which could cause
an explosion are air, oil mist and an ignition source, the "hot spot". Using optical measuring
techniques, oil mist density can be measured at levels as low as 0.05 mg/l and give early warning of a
rise in oil mist density.

Apr 05

Page 1 of 84

59812-120-1

Oil Mist Detection (OMD) techniques have been used to monitor diesel engine crankcases for potential
explosive conditions and early detection of bearing failures. The systems available rely mainly on
analysing the optical density of oil mist samples drawn from the crankcase compartments, through
pipes to the detector. While these systems proved successful in the past, engine design has improved
significantly over the years and oil mist detection techniques have improved substantially to maintain
adequate protection.
The Graviner Mk 6 OMD provides the following benefits:
Multi engine capability - up to 8 engines on a single system.
Suitable for both 2 stroke and 4 stroke engines.
Elimination of sample pipes - reduced installation costs.
Significant reduction in scanning time - 1.2 seconds for a system of 64 detectors.
Relocating system controls and display to the safety and comfort of control room

DESCRIPTION
The system comprises three main components (refer to Figure 3):
Detectors
Engine Junction Boxes
Control Unit
The Graviner Mk 6 OMD system can comprise up to 64 detectors directly mounted on the crankcases
of up to 8 engines, allowing both main propulsion and auxiliary generators to be monitored at the same
time.
Each detector communicates electronically over a serial data link via the engine mounted junction box
with the control/display unit which is designed to be mounted within the Engine Control Room. This
eliminates the need to enter the machinery space in alarm conditions.

OPERATION
The Graviner Mk 6 OMD retains the long established differential measuring system unique to Kidde
Fire Protection, which enables high sensitivity to be used while maintaining the maximum false alarm
rejection. It still uses optical sensing, but light scatter instead of obscuration. This enables very small
detectors to be used. These are rugged and are designed to be engine mounted using standard oil
mist detector ports. As they each have their own means of sample acquisition no sample pipes are
required. Multiple internal light sources ensure that a single failure will not cause the loss of a detector.
Modular construction means that a faulty detector can be replaced in a matter of minutes.
Each detector continually monitors the oil mist density in the crankspace to which it is connected. In
addition, it self checks for any internal faults. The control unit interrogates each detector in turn, notes
its address and the oil mist density value.
For each engine the average oil mist density is calculated and stored. Each detector signal is then
compared in turn with the stored average. A positive difference (the deviation) is then compared with a
pre-set, but adjustable reference (the deviation alarm level) for that engine (or detector). If it is greater
than the reference a deviation alarm is given.
The stored average level is also compared with a preset reference (the average alarm level) and an
average alarm is given if the reference is exceeded.
A full system has a maximum scan time of 1.2 seconds, but with alarm priorities that enable the system
to respond if an alarm occurs.
The Control Unit separates the information according to engine groups.
The Control Unit incorporates a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The Main Display constantly displays the
average oil mist density reading for each engine along with both the average and deviation alarm
levels for each engine. It also enables the individual readings of each detector on an engine and the
average to be displayed on demand and automatically under alarm conditions.
In the interest of safety, all system controls and alarm displays/outputs are located on the control unit.
However to aid fault finding each detector is fitted with 3 indicator lights:
Green

- Power on

Red

- Alarm

Amber

- Fault

Each detector also has an access to its address set switches.

As all detectors operate independently, the loss of one by either failure or the need to clean does not
affect the operation of the rest of the system. Individual detectors, or engine groups, can be isolated
from the rest of the system for maintenance while the rest of the system remains in operation.
1.5

SYSTEM CONTROLS AND DISPLAYS

The software is menu driven and provides a logical route to all functions. It has three operating levels:
User
Engineer
Service
The User level is essentially for read only interrogation only and does not allow any adjustments to be
made to alarm settings or system configuration.
The Engineer level is password protected and allows access to most functions and the full range of
settings. When selected, a prompt for a password will appear. Enter 012345 then press the  key.
The Service level is also password protected (different from the engineer menu) and allows access to
all functions. This is only available to authorised Kidde Fire Protection personnel and authorised
service agents.

Detector
Each detector is mounted to an individual crankcase via a inch BSP threaded hole.
Ensure all detectors fitted to the engine are locked tightly in place by means of the lock nut
supplied.
The detector should be located at the upper part of the crankcase wall NOT in the direct line of
the oil throw. On smaller engines it is permissible to mount the detector on the crankcase door
if desired or as installation dictates.
The detector should be mounted such that any oil throw comes from above the sample pipe.

Junction Box
The Junction Box is designed for on-engine mounting and it is recommended that the Box is
installed as near to the centre of the engine as possible to minimise detector cable lengths.
Mounting is via the four M6 locating holes in the box. Sufficient space must be left around the
Junction Box to allow access to the cable glands and the routing of the cables and to facilitate
easy access to all aspects of the Junction Box.

With larger 2 stroke engines, eg. 12K98MC, it may become necessary after the engine tests
are complete that due to the size and weight the engine is dismantled in 2 or 3 parts for
transportation purposes. To facilitate this it is possible with the Graviner Mk 6 OMD to use
two Junction Boxes for one engine zone.
For connection details and the different engine types see Figure 24.

Clean Air Offset (For systems supplied before 2004)

Once the system is configured to the engine installation, the detectors must be set to zero. As
the detectors are electro-optical devices it is normal for each of them to exhibit a small offset
when first switched on. This is referred to in the configuration menu as CLEAN AIR OFFSET.
Note:The detectors must be set to zero prior to engine start with a cold engine and should only
be carried out at the initial commissioning stage or when a replacement unit is fitted.
As each detector is set to zero the words 'Saving Configuration Data' will appear on the
display for a few seconds, wait for this to disappear before proceeding to the next detector.
To zero the detectors proceed as follows:

Setting Alarm Levels

The system is supplied with default alarm settings for both average and deviation. These are
based on past experience and allow the system to operate initially and gather data from the
engines being monitored. To enable the alarm settings to be matched to the individual
engines, the actual oil mist density readings should be taken from each engine after it has
been operating at full load and reached maximum operating temperature. This could take up
to 2 hours. Also clear 'MAXIMUM ACTUAL AVERAGE' for each engine to ensure all test
readings are erased. This can be done in the ENGINEER MAIN MENU then
CONFIGURATION and then 'CLR MAXIMUM AVERAGE'. The test readings for the detectors
should also be cleared.
This is done also in the ENGINEER MAIN MENU then
CONFIGURATION and then 'CLR PEAK AND AVERAGE. The above should be carried out
for all engines being monitored. This should also be carried out after any smoke testing.

Refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet in the event of health or safety issues.

Back Up Alarm
The back up alarm is a hard wired link from each detector installed on the system, this
facility will allow any detector which is in a fault condition and sees an oil mist level of
1.6mg/l or greater produce a 'Back Up Alarm'. This will produce operation of both the
shutdown and main alarm relays, the back up alarm will also override any detector or
detectors that are isolated.
Whilst any detectors are in a back up alarm condition the keypad keys are inoperative
until the oil mist level drops below 1.6mg/l.
It is possible for a healthy detector to produce a back up alarm if the level of oil rises very
rapidly.

SYSTEM OPERATION
2.4.1

Action on Alarm
On receipt of either a Deviation or Average alarm the engine should, unless connected to a
shutdown relay, be stopped if safe to do so and allowed to cool down so that the background
oil mist levels reduce before entering the engine room. Investigations can then be carried out
to find the cause of the alarm and rectify. Once the fault in the engine has been rectified the
OMD system can be re-set and the display returns to the normal mode.
When a system fault alarm is received, the information on the display should be noted and
then the appropriate fault finding procedure in Chapter 4 of the manual should be consulted to
enable the fault to be rectified.
Note: When the engine is started from cold in Arctic/Antarctic conditions, a water mist can be
produced that could give a false alarm.
Alarm and fault messages have an associated priority. These are detailed below:
Message

Priority

Alarm

Highest

Comms. fault

2nd highest

Sensor fault

3rd highest

System fault

4th highest

All events are stored in the alarm/fault queue in order of occurrence. The user can scroll
through the queue by use of the arrow keys.
Once an event is active the event is displayed on the LCD in the appropriate format. To clear
the display press the ACCEPT key. Once the ACCEPT key is pressed, the display shows the
ENGINE AVERAGES display.
When an alarm condition exists, the following warning message is displayed regardless of
other information on the display (ie alarm events have the highest priority): DEVIATION

2.Constitution

3.Installation and wiring

4.Type of thermocouple

5.Presumption cause about the trouble state

1.General
Thermocouple is manufactured by connecting both ends of two dissimilar metal wires,
and when temperature difference occurs on the contacts on these two ends, terminal
electro motive force occurs in this closed-circuit and electric current floes on this circuit.
The size and the polarity of this electric motive force are determined by the temperature on
both ends and the combination of the two metal wires and are not affected by the thickness or
the length of the metal wire. As the electro motive force can be pre-reading according to the
temperature can be measured.
Thermocouple not only requires selection of appropriate wires according to the temperature
measurement range, situation of the measuring places and the required accuracy but also
requires the maintaining of sure performance even when it is used for a long period of time.

2. Constitution
* Thermocouple wire : The wire ends are welding to create the temperature checking
contacts
* Protecting tune : This protecting tube protects the thermocouple wire and insulators from
surrounding conditions to which components and terminal read are
connected. As the conditions of the protecting tube vary consider
ably according to the temperature checking places.
It is necessary to select materials and shapes. which suit the operating
temperature atmosphere and the purpose use.
* The bolts and plugs :

There are used for fixing the measuring spot.

* The terminal head : This is the head to connect the thermocouple to the outer leading wire.
* Insulators : This insulators used to insulated between the thermocouple wires and between
protecting tubes to prevent short-circuit, use high-purity aluminium or
insulators.

3. Installation and wiring

Please pay your attention for the followings in case of the installation
(1). It is necessary to choose the suitable place and the method for the installation which can
transmit the temperature correctly and can follow the variation of the
temperature as quickly as possible.
Please take care not to bend the tube in view of the construction of the thermocouple.
(2). Please choose the suitable place which has the smallest vibration, the least
dirts, and the lowest moisture. Then, please install the thermocouple at the place which is
convenient for the maintenance and inspection.
(3) In case of the connection of wires, please confirm the wire sign in order to
avoid the wires, and connect the wires firmly by using the compression
terminals to avoid the trouble such as the breaking wire and the short -circuit.

4. Type of Thermocouple
1) "N" Type : This is called Nicrosil. nisil

Thermocouple, and it`s composition and

characteristics are very similar to those of type "K".

2) "K" Type : Thermocouple which combines a positive wire of an alloy consisting mainly of
nickel and chromium with negative wire of an alloy consisting mainly of nickel.
3) "J" Type : Thermocouple which combines a positive wire of iron with thermocouple is
resistant in reducing atmosphere and is also resistant to hydrogen and carbon.
However it should not be used atmospheres that will oxidize.
4) "T" Type : Thermocouple which combines a positive wire of copper with a negative wire of
an alloy mainly of copper and nickel.
It is suitable for low temperatures from -200~-100.
5) "E" Type : Thermocouple which combines a positive wire of thermocouple "K"with
a negative wire of thermocouple "J"
