Performance monitoring
This programme could be used on auxiliary diesel engines. The
operational parameters of the engine, such as exhaust temperatures, lubricating
oil pressures, engine load, boost air pressure, etc, etc, would be recorded under
steady state conditions. These sets of recent readings would be compared with
those taken when the machine was new, or in a known good operating
condition. Based on these results the internal inspection of the engine
components would be wavered.
CONTINUOUS HULL SURVEYS
1. Application
(1) This system covers internal examinations, close-up surveys and thickness
measurements
of tanks and spaces and pressure tests of tanks.
(2) This system is not applicable to oil tankers, bulk carriers, ships carrying
dangerous
chemicals in bulk and general dry cargo ships of not less than 500 gross tonnage.
(3) For ships more than 10 years of age, the ballast tanks are to be internally
examined twice
in each five-year class period, ie. once within the scope of the intermediate survey
and
once within the scope of the continuous system for the special survey.
In other words CHS is not applicable to ESP ships (For ESP ships refer A.744(18))
2. DETAILS:
(2) After confirming that the submitted CHS plan complies with the requirements
for all tanks
and spaces, the application is to be approved and returned to the applicant for
placing in
the onboard survey file. (One copy is to be forwarded to Classification
Department.)
